Luther Burden's drawing rave camp reviews ahead of what could be a wide-ranging outcome for the second-year WR. “Another solid day by Luther Burden capped off with a TD in two-minute drill,” says Chicago Sports Network's Clay Harbor.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs missed Thursday's practice with a groin injury, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. The injury reportedly isn't serious but certainly bears watching considering Jacobs' injury history.

49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling returned to practice on Thursday. He missed only a few days with what was evidently a minor hamstring injury. Barring a setback, Stribling's 2026 fantasy outlook is unaffected. He was off to a strong start in camp before the hamstring and has a good chance to open the season as one of San Francisco's top three WRs.

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle left practice early yesterday with a left leg injury (“muscle tightness” according to HC Sean Payton). The good news is that Waddle was on the sideline during practice today in a jersey and shorts. But, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports recorded a video of the bad news. Waddle had his left leg in a sleeve and was walking with a slight limp. The injury could still be minor, but it gives us some useful information.

The Texans on Thursday announced a two-year, $16 million extension with LB Henry To'oTo'o. It's a particularly interesting deal when you consider the playing-time fluctuations for the LB over the past two years.

The Buccaneers are dealing with multiple injuries at WR this week. That included Jalen McMillan, Chris Godwin, and Emeka Egbuka all sitting out Tuesday night's indoor practice. Tez Johnson left that workout early with a lower-body injury, according to the team website.

Jets HC Aaron Glenn told reporters Thursday morning that the team got "pretty good news" on rookie TE Kenyon Sadiq following this week's setback in his recovery from hernia surgery.

Cleveland's QB competition has been viewed as Deshaun Watson vs. Shedeur Sanders throughout the offseason, which makes obvious sense. Sanders finished last year as the team's starter, and Watson's still making way too much money to not at least get consideration. But Dillon Gabriel has gained recent praise from HC Todd Monken and should see expanded practice reps.

The Colts and RB Jonathan Taylor have agreed to a two-year, $44 million extension, according to multiple reports. The deal includes $39 million in guarantees and a max value of $47 million. It comes just days after Bijan Robinson got a record-setting extension (among RBs) from the Falcons and checks in just short of Robinson's annual average. It will obviously end the "hold-in" that has found Taylor at camp but not participating. Before the extension, Taylor would have been entering the final year of his existing contract.

Patrik Walker of the Cowboys website asked OC Klayton Adams about the RB competition behind starter Javonte Williams. He said Adams praised each member of the group, but had comments that "stuck out" about one particular competitor.

It was another eventful offseason for Chiefs TE Travis Kelce, highlighted by getting hitched to Taylor Swift. But HC Andy Reid says Kelce showed up to training camp in good shape and is primed for another productive season.

Giants beat writer Dan Duggan called TE Isaiah Likely "the most consistent offensive player" on the team. "[I'd] be very surprised if he's not a very reliable option," Duggan added.

Jordan Addison jammed his thumb and is expected to miss practice time, but it's “nothing to be concerned about,” per Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell.

Rico Dowdle is impressing in his first training camp with the Steelers. Mark Kaboly, Steelers Correspondent for the Pat McAfee Show, writes “Even though [Jaylen] Warren is very good, Dowdle will be the unquestioned RB1 when the season starts.”

Jeremiyah Love is among the players who will not play in Thursday’s Hall of Fame game per Cardinals’ HC Mike LaFleur

KC Concepcion is back to making plays in training camp just a day after a shoulder injury scare. Zac Jackson of The Athletic reported that both Concepcion and Boston are off to “strong starts” in a paragraph that included “It feels like Jerry Jeudy’s time as the de facto No. 1 wide receiver is coming to an end…”.

Texans WR Tank Dell practiced in pads Wednesday for the first time since his devastating knee injury in December 2024. He remained limited, catching passes from QB C.J. Stroud and running full-speed routes but avoiding contact drills.

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle left Wednesday's practice early with an apparent lower-body injury and did not return. HC Sean Payton said the receiver is "expected to be fine," according to Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. He attributed the issue to "muscle tightness."

We read rosy reports earlier this week about TE Chig Okonkwo and WR Treylon Burks at Commanders camp, but the team clearly believed it needed a pass-catching upgrade. So Wednesday brought an agreement with veteran WR Stefon Diggs, according to multiple reports. ESPN's Adam Schefter says it's a one-year deal worth "up to $12 million."

The Philly Voice's Jimmy Kempski writes: "Through five practices, [Dontayvion] Wicks pretty clearly looks like the second-best receiver in camp." Wicks has impressed with his route running, blocking, and even his hands, per Kempski. Rookie WR Makai Lemon, meanwhile, was quiet early in camp before being sidelined with a hamstring injury.
