Travis Etienne is getting “the bulk” of the first-team reps on early downs, and Duncan notes “he’ll be surprised if it’s a Kamara-Mark Ingram-like 50-50 split when all is said and done.” It feels like Kamara is settling in for a lower situational role, but perhaps not situational enough for the comfort of Etienne-reliant fantasy managers, as the Saints’ new signing carries an ADP in the late 30s or early 40s on most sites.04 August 2026
It will be our first glimpse of Beck in an NFL uniform. Given the draft cost they paid for Beck, the 65th overall pick, it would behoove the Cardinals for him to be clearly better than everyone else out on the field Thursday and establish some sort of momentum to eventually get a starting role by the end of the season. We’ll see.04 August 2026
Fant wasn’t projected to be a major contributor to the Cowboys this year, but he was a solid depth tight end with special teams experience. He’s under contract for 2027.04 August 2026
Per Panthers coach Dave Canales, he was evaluated for a concussion and passed, but “it looks like a stinger, so we’re going to evaluate him more over the next day or so.” Legette likely will take it easy for the next week or so, but this doesn’t look like a major injury and he wasn’t likely to play in the Hall Of Fame game either way.

McDaniel said the team has worked diligently on the quick passing game during offseason practices and training camp. McDaniel said he knows Herbert can excel on the “long developing plays” but wants to create more easy drop backs with schemes that “nullify the pass rush” and allow Herbert to get the ball out quickly to his pass catchers. This should lead to plenty of easy-button targets for Ladd McConkey and the team’s tight ends as Quentin Johnston continues operating as Herbert’s ...04 August 2026
It looks like Ladd McConkey could avoid the late-summer Keenan Allen rug pull. It’s good news for McConkey as new Chargers OC Mike McDaniel plans to get the wideout more short-area looks in 2026 — targets Allen might have soaked up if he had returned to LA. McConkey, who by many measures , has WR1 upside in McDaniel’s offense.04 August 2026
The deal includes $108 million in guarantees, according to Schefter. It’s a big payday for Flowers as he enters his fourth NFL season as the Ravens’ clearcut No. 1 wideout. Flowers has 237 receptions for 3,128 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns since entering the league in 2023, working mostly as a slot guy in the run-heavy Baltimore offense.04 August 2026
Sadiq has missed recent training camp practices for undisclosed reasons. Now we know his recovery from surgery has not gone as expected. Though Glenn remains confident Sadiq — the team’s first round pick in the 2026 draft — will be OK for Week 1, fantasy managers should keep a close eye on Sadiq’s status in the coming weeks. For now the rookie is listed as the Jets TE2 behind Mason Taylor.04 August 2026
It’s a blow to the Eagles as first-year offensive coordinator Sean Mannion uses training camp to install his system and ensure the team’s key players — including Lemon and Smith — are acclimated to the offense before the regular season. Hopefully the Eagles’ top two wideouts don’t miss much time with the soft tissue injuries. We can expect Eagles coaches to be cautious with Smith, the team’s new No. 1 receiver, and Lemon, who will likely play primarily from the slot in 2026. The A ...04 August 2026
It’s a concerning development since pass protection cost Henderson major snaps and reps during his disappointing 2025 rookie campaign. Graff said Henderson during training camp has “looked a bit like last season: big, explosive plays, but just enough mistakes in pass protection that it feels like a risk to use him on third downs.” Without serious improvement in his blocking, Henderson’s role likely won’t change all that much in 2026. Meanwhile, Rhamondre Stevenson, per Graff, “has d ...04 August 2026
Boutte, according to Patriots beat writers and coaches, has functioned as Drake Maye’s favorite target, especially downfield, while A.J. Brown struggles to connect with Maye while dealing with consistent coverage from all-pro CB Christian Gonzalez. “If [Boutte] keeps this up, he’s either increasing his value on the trade market or playing his way into a meaningful role with the Pats,” Graff said. Boutte had been rumored as a trade candidate after the Patriots acquired Brown and Romeo Do ...04 August 2026
This marks the third straight day Sadiq has missed as he recovers from offseason hernia surgery. Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Sadiq is on a “maintenance program” for now, and did not offer a return date for the first-round rookie. Sadiq is listed as the Jets’ TE2 behind Mason Taylor, with Jeremy Ruckert behind the rookie. Fantasy managers should monitor Sadiq’s training camp participation in the coming weeks.04 August 2026
The deal includes a whopping $51 million in guarantees. Robinson becomes the highest-paid running back in NFL history, surpassing Saquon Barkely. Under the new deal, Robinson, 24, will make $22.25 million per year, according to ESPN. This ends Robinson’s brief hold-in at Falcons training camp. Robinson over his first three NFL seasons has totaled 5,648 yards and 34 touchdowns as the centerpiece of the Atlanta offense. That won’t change under new head coach Kevin Stefanski, who has talked up ...04 August 2026
Fant was engaged in a block during practice and took the brunt of a knee-to-knee collision. He was unable to place weight on his left leg, requiring the cart to depart the practice field. Fant will undergo further testing to determine the extent of the injury. The special teams contributor has appeared in 11 games since signing as an undrafted free agent in 2023.03 August 2026
By all accounts, Wilson has been a beast on the field for the Cardinals through the early portions of camp, with multiple beat reporters hinting at the potential for him to end the 2026 season as the team’s leading wide receiver. The injury was not disclosed but Wilson was seen on the sideline in sweats cheering on his fellow receivers through position drills. It doesn’t appear to be something that could jeopardize his status as one of the team’s top pass catchers as the regular season in ...03 August 2026
“On of them in the mix of the battle is coming off an injury. That timeline may or may not be perfect for that first game,” Minter relayed via the team’s website Monday. Recent signee Ethan Pocic is coming off a torn Achilles in Week 14 of the 2025 season but possesses the most starting experience of the players battling to supplant longtime starter Tyler Linderbaum following his departure in free agency. Minter’s comments, while slightly vague, seem to point towards Pocic as the desire ...03 August 2026
Speaking to media Monday, head coach Sean McVay relayed that it would be “some time” before Allen returns to the practice field considering the nature of the soft tissue injury. McVay added, “You don’t want to rush him back, Davis is going to be a big part of what we do this year.” Allen set career highs in his third professional season in 2025, catching 24 passes for 208 yards and three touchdowns, ranking second on the team in offensive snaps behind only Colby Parkinson.03 August 2026
Benson had in-season meniscus surgery last season and never returned to the field. LaFleur said the team doesn’t anticipate this flare-up becoming a multi-week issue, but they’re clearly going to do what they need to do to help him manage things. Benson is competing for touches with James Conner and Tyler Allgeier in camp, but there’s been some belief that the Cardinals could keep four running backs on the final roster when all is said and done. Benson has a career rushing line of 92-451- ...03 August 2026
Jennings is good to go after an undisclosed injury sidelined him for the first week of training camp. The third-year back is expected to compete for RB3 duties this season.03 August 2026
Payton acknowledged that he will speak to Hill in five days when the two meet at Canton for Drew Brees’ Hall of Fame induction, and Payton is planning to gauge whether Hill is interested in playing another season. The 35-year-old offensive weapon made a name for himself in Payton’s offense from 2018 to 2021, and continued to be a primary contributor for the Saints long after Payton left. Hill will turn 36 before the start of the season and has had a quiet offseason thus far after his contra ...
