Broncos QB Bo Nix needed two surgeries on the right ankle he fractured in January's playoff win over the Bills. The first repaired the ankle and the second, which came in April, was to remove bone spurs, Nix said this week. He's been a limited participant in minicamp and is on track to be a full-go for training camp. Nix isn't worried about the ankle heading into the 2026 season.
Chargers WR Ladd McConkey revealed Tuesday that he's missed time this offseason with a left hamstring injury. He expects to be ready for the start of training camp in late July. "There's no reason to rush it and really push it and then have another setback and then you bleed into training camp," McConkey said.
Titans HC Brian Daboll praised the progress of rookie WR Carnell Tate. “We’ve thrown a lot at these guys and he’s picked it up extremely well,” Daboll said via Nashville Post. “I’ve done this for a long time. In terms of picking it up, he’s been one of the tops at the skill position.”
We reported last week that Saints WR Chris Olave remained sidelined after a blood clot was found in his lung in January. According to New Orleans Football's Nick Underhill, Olave is slated to get off his blood thinners on June 29. It sounds like he'll be fully cleared at that point. "Everything to this point is going exactly as planned," Underhill adds.
Cowboys WR George Pickens reported for this week's mandatory minicamp and says he has no plans to hold out during training camp or the season. He's set to play 2026 on the franchise tag, which will pay him $27.3 million.
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is scheduled to be released from jail today. He served a 30-day sentence for testing positive for THC, violating the terms of his probation. It sounds like that'll be the end of the discipline for that incident. Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio writes that, "The league has shown no inclination to impose further punishment on Rice for his probation violation."
Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby plans to enter the NFL’s supplemental draft, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel. The NCAA ruled Sorsby ineligible for the college season because of gambling violations, including his admission that he bet on Indiana while redshirting there as a freshman, plus more evidence linking him to proxy betting and bets on other sports. A big year at Texas Tech could have made him a potential first-round pick in 2027, but now he plans to enter July’s supplemental draft after the team planned on not letting him play.
Broncos RB R.J. Harvey suffered a torn labrum in his shoulder in January's playoff loss to the Patriots, according to The Denver Post's Luca Evans. Harvey had surgery this offseason and "hasn’t done much team work in OTAs," Evans adds.
Cowboys HC Brian Schottenheimer said he sees a "night and day" difference from RB Jaydon Blue between now and his rookie year. Blue was often a healthy scratch last season, carrying just 38 times across five appearances. There were multiple reports of work ethic and maturity issues throughout the year.
Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. sat out team activities in May and June, including OTA practices and mandatory minicamp, after participating in voluntary minicamp in April. That absence stands out because Fannin injured his groin ahead of Week 17 against the Steelers, reinjured it during the game, and then missed Week 18. The Browns don’t need to explain the absence, but it would be worth watching if that groin injury is still limiting him.
It was a little surprising when the Jaguars drafted Texas A&M TE Nate Boerkircher. It was the team’s first pick, after Jacksonville traded its first-rounder to move up for Travis Hunter in 2025, and Boerkircher totaled just 38 receptions across five college seasons (four at Nebraska, one at A&M). But the degree to which Jags leadership got excited about the selection might give us some hints at the team’s offensive plans for 2026 and beyond … and they could impact the fantasy outlook for your favorite Jacksonville receiver.
The Panthers on Thursday agreed to a three-year extension with WR Jalen Coker that'll pay $35 million, with incentives that could push it to $41 million, according to multiple reports.
Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving practiced on Thursday for the first time this offseason, according to Pewter Report. He's been working back from February shoulder surgery, and HC Todd Bowles sounded alarms in late May when he suggested that Irving could be in danger of missing the start of the season. But Irving practicing in June -- without a non-contact jersey -- is a good sign.
Packers TE Tucker Kraft said Wednesday that he expects to play and be full-go for the season opener. He's about seven months removed from surgery to repair a torn ACL and partially torn LCL and meniscus in his right knee. Kraft said he hit 21.5 mph while sprinting recently. There were only 16 faster ball carriers recorded last season by Next Gen Stats (although that's with pads on).
Saints WR Chris Olave has remained sidelined this offseason after a blood clot was found in his lung in January. The issue cost him last season's finale, but ESPN's Adam Schefter reported at the time that it would only keep him out for a month. It's now been over five months.
Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan has been sidelined this spring with a foot issue. The team expects McMillan to be ready for the start of training camp, though, according to The Charlotte Observer's Mike Kaye. And McMillan didn't sound worried when speaking to the media on Wednesday. "It's just a little sore, that's all it is," McMillan said of the foot. "But I feel good right now. ... No concern."
Colts WR Alec Pierce stopped short of guaranteeing that he'll be ready for Week 1 on Wednesday. He said that he expects to be back at some point during training camp and "hopes" to be ready for the opener, according to Locked On Colts' Jake Arthur. Pierce also revealed that he had his ankle surgery in March and was given a 4-6 month timeline for return.
The Seattle News Tribune's Gregg Bell came away from the Seahawks' minicamp on Tuesday believing that RB Zach Charbonnet could be back from his torn ACL sooner than expected. Bell notes that HC Mike Macdonald said shortly after Charbonnet's surgery in mid-February that Charbonnet wouldn't do anything this spring. Yet there he was working off to the side of Tuesday's practice for about 15 minutes with trainers. Charbonnet was working through "lateral movement and other low-impact drills," according to Bell. It was the first time he was on the field in a practice open to the media this offseason. "Charbonnet’s work, albeit incremental, at this minicamp suggests he could be at the top of the plans Macdonald and new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury have for the start of the season," Bell wrote.
Vikings WR Justin Jefferson spoke glowingly of QB Kyler Murray on Monday. “He understands the game. He understands the defenses," Jefferson said on KFAN. "He understands how to put touch on the ball, just enough to where it gets to where it’s gotta go, without making it difficult for us. He understands the game a lot more… he kinda throws the ball before you even get out that break… he’s a smart guy, and he’s a competitor.”
