Giants RB Cam Skattebo (ankle) took 11-on-11 reps for the first time since his season-ending injury.

09 June 2026

It has always seemed likely that Skattebo will be ready for training camp, plus or minus an off-day here or there to help with recovery, but this pretty much guarantees it. Skattebo escaped the offseason as a big fantasy football winner since the Giants didn’t add a real competitor for the starting job. It remains to be seen if he can hold off Tyrone Tracy for a full-time role, but he should at least start the year as the lead of a committee.

The Athletic’s Zac Jackson reports rookie wideouts KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston have started taking full rotations with both the No. 1 and No. 2 offensive groups.

09 June 2026

In other words, they’re “going to play a lot” per Jackson. It’s generally a good sign when rookies are already working with the 1s ahead of camp, even if they haven’t literally won the No. 1 role yet. Both players carry some breakout potential, though it’s hard to recommend either as more than a bench redraft league prayer in shallow leagues to open the season given Cleveland’s quarterback situation.

Browns coach Todd Monken singled out Isaiah Bond as a player who’s shown improvement this spring.

09 June 2026

Unless Bond can make a real move on Jerry Jeudy, we imagine he’ll probably split reps with Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion early in the season, leaving him as more of a deep-league stash. Still, after he went undrafted last year due to a sexual assault accusation, it appears the Browns think pretty highly of him and he’ll likely finish training camp as someone with an easy roster spot.

The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec believes Devontez Walker is the favorite for the team’s No. 3 WR role.

09 June 2026

He cautions that there’s still a possibility the Ravens address the position late in free agency, as Stefon Diggs, Keenan Allen, Deebo Samuel, and DeAndre Hopkins remain available. Still, he has the experience edge over the two rookie receivers and barring an injury stash situation it’s hard to understand the Ravens not keeping two players they just drafted. Considering Lamar Jackson’s history and the potential upside in Declan Doyle’s offense, Walker is an interesting buy in fantasy at ...

NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reports the Texans think David Montgomery “is ready to be a potential three-down back if needed.”

09 June 2026

The “if needed” is a bit of a buzzkill, but it should surprise nobody if Montgomery is a heavy-touch player in Houston’s offense this season after coming over in an offseason trade. Woody Marks is not guaranteed to have a major role if Montgomery can handle third downs as well. Montgomery mostly ceded these roles to Jahmyr Gibbs with the Lions; it is no insult to Marks to note that he is not Gibbs.

Browns DT Mason Graham was spotted in a walking boot at OTAs.

09 June 2026

Graham’s boot, on his right foot, obviously prevented him from practicing. There’s still plenty of time ahead of training camp, so there’s not a real reason for concern for his season yet barring more dire details emerging. Still, it’s not great news for a player that dealt with knee and rib issues last year.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said second-round EDGE Gabe Jacas “had a procedure” and has not been present at the team facility.

09 June 2026

He won’t participate in OTAs, and Jacas has yet to sign his rookie contract. We’ll get additional details as they emerge. There’s probably nothing immediately pressing about this news, but given how important it is for rookies to state their cases for playing time early, Jacas is probably at a disadvantage for getting early snaps in New England’s edge rusher room.

Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said Matt Hennessy (neck) underwent surgery and there is no timetable for his return.

09 June 2026

Hennessy will be placed on PUP at the start of training camp. The veteran backup likely faces tough odds to make the roster at the start of the season.

ESPN’s Kevin Seifert reports that Vikings RT Brian O’Neill is “an observer” during OTAs while he waits on the Vikings to address his contract.

09 June 2026

O’Neill, who turns 31 in September, has missed six games over the last three seasons and made a Pro Bowl in 2024. He carried a career-best 84.5 PFF run block grade in 2025 and figures to be a worthwhile starter for the short-term, so it would be surprising if the Vikings didn’t address his contract in some way this offseason.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter said he thinks it’s “more likely than not” that Aaron Donald will unretire.

09 June 2026

“Nobody said that,” Schefter then said, noting that everyone involved is downplaying this. Donald almost undoubtedly wouldn’t go through a training camp, and the Rams have yet to present him with a plan on how he’d be used. Schefter stresses that this is just a “guess” but that the “ingredients are there to make it happen.” Donald Watch will become a big part of the training camp news cycle unless someone involved throws cold water on it.

Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said he’s not sure when Travis Hunter will be a “full go.”

09 June 2026

Ensuring the listening audience knew he was not a doctor, Coen said during a Tuesday radio interview that he’s unsure as to when Hunter, recovering from a 2025 knee injury, will be able to join live reps at Jaguars offseason practices. Noting Hunter’s bulked-up upper body, Coen said Hunter would continue to grind tape and learn offensive and defensive schemes on screen while recovering. Coen described Hunter’s injury as a “minor setback for a major comeback.” Jaguars beat writers have ...

Rams OT Alaric Jackson was arrested Monday on a felony domestic violence charge.

09 June 2026

The charge against Jackson, 27, who has been with the Rams since entering the NFL in 2021, was for “a person who willfully inflicts corporal injury,” according to the LAPD. Jackson, who has played in 45 regular season games for the Rams over the past three seasons, has a history of off-the-field issues, including a 2024 suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. Jackson last November was sued “by a woman who alleged he recorded her without her consent during sex, repeate ...

Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said QB Malik Willis appeared “more comfortable” with the team’s offense this week.

09 June 2026

“I think he’s looked as good as he’s looked since I met him,” Hafley told reporters Tuesday morning. This comes one week after Dolphins offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik said learning the team’s offense and getting comfortable with the team’s pass catchers has been an “ongoing process” for Willis, who last season led the NFL in EPA per drop back on a small sample size (58 plays) in Green Bay. He was 22 percent over his expected pass rate with the Packers in 2025, leading all qua ...

Browns G Joel Bitonio announced his retirement from the NFL after 12 seasons.

09 June 2026

Bitonio played in 178 regular season games for Cleveland over his 12 seasons, rarely missing games and making seven consecutive Pro Bowl games starting in 2017. He played at a high level even in his final years as a standout in an otherwise awful Browns offensive line. Last year Pro Football Focus graded Bitonio as the league’s eighth best pass-blocking guard, as he allowed just two sacks and one QB hit over 17 regular season games. The Browns will struggle to fill the void left by Bitonio in ...

A to Z Sports’ Charles Goldman believes Emari Demercado “is closer to RB2 in Kansas City than any other prospect.”

08 June 2026

Goldman added that the team is “very high” on Demercado before noting his spot as the No. 2 back in every drill of note during OTAs. The Chiefs signed Demercado to a one-year deal this offseason to back up Kenneth Walker. They also added Emmet Johnson in the fifth round of the draft, but it sounds like the veteran has the inside track to backup duties right now. Demercado could also operate as the team’s primary back on passing downs, giving him some extra juice in PPR formats.

The NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reports the Panthers have expectations of Jonathon Brooks “potentially being the lead back over Chuba Hubbard.”

08 June 2026

Wolfe made the obvious caveat that Brooks needed to be healthy for this to have any chance of happening. Brooks entered the league recovering from a torn ACL he suffered during his final season at Texas. He then tore the same ACL in just his third career game, causing him to miss all of the 2025 season. When the Panthers selected Brooks with the No. 46 pick in 2024, he certainly had the potential to take over the backfield by the end of his rookie season. It remains to be seen how much of a toll ...

Jacksonville.com’s Ryan O’Halloran reports the Jaguars expect Chris Rodriguez (foot) to be a “full-go” by training camp.

08 June 2026

Rodriguez underwent a surgical procedure on his left foot earlier this offseason and has been sidelined for OTAs as a result. Given when the Jaguars expect him to be ready to go, it sounds like Rodriguez will be sidelined for minicamp, which kicks off this week, but this isn’t expected to affect his readiness for the start of the season. Rodriguez is expected to split duties with second-year back Bhayshul Tuten this season, and could be the favorite to handle early down touches and short-yarda ...

Chiefs signed CB L’Jarius Sneed, formerly of the Titans, to a one-year, $5 million contract.

08 June 2026

NFL insider Jordan Schultz was first to report the reunion between the Chiefs and Sneed. The veteran corner last played for the Chiefs in 2023 and was traded to the Titans in the 2024 offseason. Over the last two seasons, Sneed has struggled with multiple injuries, limiting him to just 12 games. Sneed, 29, will also reunite with defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, which could bode well for him as he returns to a familiar environment and a team he helped lead to two Super Bowl titles.

Giants HC John Harbaugh said Abdul Carter’s ankle injury doesn’t appear to be too serious.

08 June 2026

Speaking after Monday’s minicamp, Harbaugh said Carter suffered a twisted ankle but downplayed any notion that it would be a serious injury. The Giants and their fans can breathe an early sigh of relief after the former No. 3 overall pick was seen limping off the field early in the first day of the team’s three-day minicamp.

The Patriots signed No. 28 overall pick OT Caleb Lomu to a four-year contract.

08 June 2026

The Patriots traded up with the Bills to select Lomu in hopes of shoring up an offensive line that allowed 48 sacks on its quarterbacks last season. Lomu did not allow a sack on 769 pass-blocking snaps while lined up at left tackle during his career, and allowed only 25 pressures on 808 pass-blocking snaps overall, per PFF. Despite being viewed by some as a raw talent, Lomu was one of the most athletic offensive linemen in this year’s draft, and figures to eventually work his way into one of t ...
