NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports that the Texans inquired about Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte’s availability.

21 August 2026

Boutte has been the subject of trade rumors all offseason. Back in June, the Commanders and Raiders were linked to him in an ESPN report. Nothing has come to fruition thus far, and Boutte has received positive reviews throughout training camp. The Athletic’s Chad Graff described him as the camp “star” earlier this month. The Texans are attempting to improve their wide receiver corps after losing WR Jayden Higgins to an ACL tear recently. Fellow second-year wide receiver Jaylin Noel has al ...

Free agent WR Zay Jones worked out for the Texans on Friday.

21 August 2026

Jones played for the Cardinals last year, catching 12 passes for 183 yards before rupturing an Achilles tendon in Week 10 against the Seahawks. The Texans are hoping to bolster their wide receiver corps after losing WR Jayden Higgins to a torn ACL.

Seahawks WR Jake Bobo was carted from Friday’s practice with an apparent knee injury.

21 August 2026

Bobo reportedly went up to make a catch and landed awkwardly before leaving the field. The 28-year-old receiver signed a two-year deal with Bobo this offseason, opting to match an offer he received from the Jaguars. Bobo has caught 34 passes for 323 yards and three touchdowns in his career and has been primarily used on special teams since entering the league in 2023. Head coach Mike MacDonald said after the game that Bobo’s injury appears to be a serious one. It wouldn’t be surprising if w ...

Seahawks WR Jake Bobo was carted from Friday’s practice with an apparent leg injury.

Bobo reportedly went up to make a catch and landed awkwardly before leaving the field. The 28-year-old receiver signed a two-year deal with Bobo this offseason, opting to match an offer he received from the Jaguars. Bobo has caught 34 passes for 323 yards and three touchdowns in his career and has been primarily used on special teams since entering the league in 2023.

Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, agent Drew Rosenhaus said he doesn’t expect free agent WR Tyreek Hill to sign before the start of the season.

21 August 2026

Given the reports we’ve received on Hill this offseason, this news doesn’t come as much of a surprise. In May, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Hill might not be ready to play until closer to the midway point of the season, and in July, Hill himself said he had “no power” in his left leg. The 32-year-old receiver suffered a dislocated knee, torn ACL and LCL, along with other ligament damage in Week 4 last season, and could be a long shot to play this season. Rosenhaus did say that H ...

The Athletic’s Joe Buscaglia reports Bills WR Skyler Bill is dealing with a groin injury.

21 August 2026

Bell disclosed to Buscaglia on Thursday that he suffered the injury during the team’s first practice at Highmark Stadium on August 8th. Bell hasn’t been on the practice field since then, but on Thursday he was seen running drills with the training staff after practice and hopes to play in the Bills’ final preseason game against the Steelers on August 27th. Bell hasn’t had as strong a camp as some had hoped for after the Bills drafted him in the fourth round in this year’s draft. The r ...

Carnell Tate was back practicing on Friday.

21 August 2026

Tate reportedly took a hard hit during Monday’s practice and missed a few days of practice as a result. The rookie receiver is now back on the field and should have a chance to suit up for the Titans’ second preseason game, which is set for Sunday against the Seahawks. Tate did not catch any of his three targets in last week’s preseason outing against the 49ers.

ESPN’s Jordan Raanan says Najee Harris “was brought in under the premise that he’s going to be a significant contributor” for the Giants this season.

21 August 2026

It’s worth noting that Cam Skattebo continues to be the first running back up in practice, but it sounds like the Giants could have a vision for Harris, who signed with the team on a one-year, minimum-salary deal, per Raanan. Harris is returning from a torn Achilles that ended his 2025 season in Week 3, but there’s plenty of room for him to earn snaps behind Skattebo once he gets up to speed. A blown pass-blocking assignment by Tyrone Tracy in the team’s first preseason game against the V ...

The Athletic’s Jesse Newell reports the Chiefs have been “getting the ball to Kenneth Walker all the time” in camp.

21 August 2026

Newell writes that the way the Chiefs have been getting the ball to Walker has been “one of the most striking parts of camp,” while adding that Walker has been the primary target in the screen game and in the red zone. It’s about as encouraging a report as fantasy managers could hope for if they’re eyeing Walker in drafts this season. The 25-year-old back signed a three-year, $40.05 million contract with the Chiefs this offseason and could operate as the true bell cow in Andy Reid’s o ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Parker Washington is expected to return to practice next week.

21 August 2026


Raiders HC Klint Kubiak declined to name a starting QB after the team’s second preseason game against the Texans on Thursday.

21 August 2026


Chargers RB Keaton Mitchell rushed three times for minus-one yard in Thursday’s preseason game against the 49ers, adding one reception for 11 yards.

21 August 2026

Mitchell’s box score would have looked a lot better if his 21-yard reception on a route out of the backfield had not been called back due to a penalty. Chargers starting RB Omarion Hampton played all three snaps on the opening drive before giving way to Mitchell, who played 10-of-10 snaps on the second and third drives. Fellow backup RB Kimani Vidal took the field as the Chargers’ kick returner to begin the game. He made his first appearance on offense on the Chargers’ fourth drive. Mitch ...

49ers WR De’Zhaun Stribling caught 4-of-5 targets for 46 yards in Thursday’s preseason game against the Chargers.

21 August 2026

Stribling starred on the 49ers’ first two drives. He caught three passes on the first drive, nabbing an eight-yard gain on a curl route, high-pointing a pass beyond the sticks and making a kneeling catch for a first down via a slant route from the perimeter. 49ers QB Brock Purdy beautifully threaded the needle to him on a post route downfield, sneaking the ball right past two defenders. Stribling nearly hauled in a 30-plus-yard pass down the left sideline, just a few yards from the end zone, ...

Chargers TE Charlie Kolar caught 1-of-1 targets for nine yards in Thursday’s preseason game against the 49ers.

21 August 2026

Kolar earned QB Justin Herbert’s first target of the night on a short out route to the left. Kolar secured the pass but stumbled and was brought down just shy of the first-down marker. PFF’s Nathan Jahnke notes that Kolar shared the field with TE David Njoku on two of the first three plays, but Kolar remained on the field for the Chargers’ first 11 personnel package. Kolar looks like the Chargers’ No. 1 tight end. He was a talented prospect but has contributed sparingly as a receiver in ...

Raiders RB Mike Washington rushed nine times for 56 yards in Thursday’s preseason game against the Texans, adding two receptions for 18 yards.

21 August 2026

Washington looked good once again this week. His best play was an explosive gain on the Raiders’ first drive. Washington ran into the back of the line briefly but bounced off contact and took off downfield for a 33-yard gain. He was tackled by his shoestrings on the Texans’ 25-yard line. Unfortunately, the next play wasn’t great. Raiders QB Fernando Mendoza decided to check down to Washington on a play-action dropback, but the pass was intercepted and returned for an 80-yard touchdown. Te ...

ESPN’s Michael DiRocco reports that the Jaguars are “reluctant” to take WR Parker Washington off the field.

21 August 2026

DiRocco indicates that Washington is staying on the field for both 12 personnel and 11 personnel packages. He and WR Jakobi Meyers have reportedly led the position group in snaps this summer. Although Washington is dealing with an undisclosed injury at the moment, he is expected to return next week. DiRocco said on Tuesday that Washington has “established himself” as the team’s No. 1 wide receiver, which lines up with what we’ve been hearing all spring and summer.

Chargers WR Brenen Thompson exited Thursday’s preseason game against the 49ers after suffering an apparent injury.

21 August 2026

Thompson stopped by the blue medical tent before being taken to the locker room. This is a bummer. The speedy wide receiver played all three first-team reps with QB Justin Herbert. Herbert hung up his cleats for the night after that drive, but Thompson remained on the field, earning two targets from QB Trey Lance. The first yielded a seven-yard gain on a comeback route. The second was thrown 50-plus yards downfield. Thompson dove for it, but a defender likely got away with a DPI no-call, and La ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) is on track to play in Week 1 against the Broncos.

21 August 2026

The AFC West showdown takes place on September 14th, giving Mahomes just over three weeks to fit in a little extra rehab. Schefter adds that Mahomes has “cleared every hurdle” in training camp this summer. He has missed zero reps and reportedly “looks strong” on the practice field. Mahomes can be treated as a fantasy football QB1.

Raiders WR Jalen Nailor caught 1-of-3 targets for 22 yards in Thursday’s preseason game against the Texans.

21 August 2026

Both Nailor and WR Jack Bech played tonight while WR Tre Tucker took the night off. Bech failed to earn a target and played into the fifth drive. Nailor called it a night after the third drive. The Raiders’ top-three wide receivers appear to be Tucker, Nailor and Bech, in that order. Tucker might warrant matchup-based FLEX treatment in 12-team leagues.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) has a “legitimate chance to play” in Week 1 against the Rams.
