Award-Winning Fantasy Football Advice

Malik Nabers keeps progressing, and the odds of a Week 1 return keep rising. Connor Hughes of SportsNet New York reports that “He shed the red jersey and took part in 7-on-7 & 11-on-11.” While the Giants were without pads, meaning it wasn’t a full-contact practice, it was still a step in the right direction for Nabers. Hughes even reports that “He made a nice grab diving back for the ball on an intermediate route/curl.”

Bears RB D'Andre Swift "had arguably the best training camp of any offensive skill player," ESPN's Courtney Cronin writes. Swift has been overshadowed in fantasy drafts by popular breakout candidates Colston Loveland and Luther Burden. But he's a nice value target in fantasy drafts.

The Patriots traded WR Kayshon Boutte to the Houston Texans for S Jaylen Reed and a 2028 seventh-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of The Ringer. The Texans were in need of a shot in the arm at the position after WR Jayden Higgins suffered a torn ACL last week. Other WRs Jaylin Noel and Tank Dell have also missed most of training camp. Boutte had been rumored to be on the trade block since before training camp and was expendable after the Patriots brought in AJ Brown and Romeo Doubs.

Jets RB Breece Hall was doing agility work off to the side of Monday's practice, according to The New York Post's Brian Costello. "He’s moving well," Costello adds. "Good sign."

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson slipped while cutting on Monday and left practice early. Henderson had been practicing after missing Saturday’s preseason game, but was potentially hurt at some point during practice, according to ESPN’s Mike Reiss. He had his right foot and ankle looked at on the sideline.

ESPN's Jenna Laine delivered her roster projection for the Buccaneers on Monday, and that appears to include RB Bucky Irving maintaining a lead over new No. 2 RB Kenneth Gainwell.

Browns HC Todd Monken has named QB Deshaun Watson his Week 1 starter over Shedeur Sanders.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty is believed to have sprained an ankle in Sunday's practice, according to insiders Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter. "The Raiders still are unsure how long he will be out, but it is not considered a long-term injury and the organization is breathing a sigh of relief tonight," Schefter writes. It's excellent news after what sounded like a potential season-ending injury.

Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah seemed to be fighting for the Cowboys' No. 2 RB job this summer. But with RB Javonte Williams getting the second preseason game off, RB Malik Davis drew the start. The Athletic's Jon Machota now predicts Davis will open the season as the No. 2 RB before Blue takes over later in the season.
