        Tua Tagovailoa

        ATL QB

        Tua Tagovailoa Returns to Training Camp, Gains Edge in Week 1 QB Battle

        Tua Tagovailoa Returns to Training Camp, Gains Edge in Week 1 QB Battle

        The Falcons opened training camp yesterday without their top two QBs in Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr. Tagovailoa had been dealing with back tightness, but he's back at practice today. Tagovailoa opened the day doing individual drills, so the back tightness doesn't appear to be a major issue. Penix and Tagovailoa are currently competing to open the season as the starter.

        Chiefs WR Cyrus Allen did some work with the first team offense in training camp yesterday. The fifth-round rookie drew praise from Andy Reid according to Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports. Reid said that Allen had a good day and Mahomes has some trust in Allen. Goldman also reported second-year WR Jalen Royals struggled, which could create an opening for Allen to pass him if that continues.

        Broncos QB Bo Nix was a full participant in the first practice of training camp, according to insider Zac Stevens. It was Nix's first time in full-squad drills since his January ankle injury. He missed OTAs and was limited in 7-on-7 work in minicamp after undergoing a pair of surgeries. Nix hit WRs Jaylen Waddle, Pat Bryant, and Lil'Jordan Humphrey for TDs during Wednesday's red-zone period, per Stevens.

        Browns TE Harold Fannin revealed that he had surgery this offseason to address the groin injury he suffered in Week 17 last year. Fannin spent about two months rehabbing and did little in spring workouts, but he was cleared a couple of weeks ago and is now a full participant in training camp.

        Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd had a healthy and impressive spring. He's carried that momentum into the early stages of training camp, working in with the first-team offense and flashing his big-play ability.

        Falcons QBs Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa are sidelined for the start of training camp. Penix continues to recover from November surgery to repair his right ACL. Tagovailoa is dealing with a tight back, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, and is expected back next week.

        Giants WR Malik Nabers opened training camp in individual drills, and ESPN's Jordan Raanan said he “looked good” in videos of him running. Nabers tore multiple ligaments in his knee in the second quarter of the Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Earlier this year, he underwent a scar-tissue cleanup procedure on the knee, but with him back on the field this early, Week 1 looks like a strong possibility.

        Texans WR Jaylin Noel is expected to miss "a few weeks" with a finger injury, GM Nick Caserio said Wednesday. Noel is battling Jayden Higgins, Tank Dell, and Xavier Hutchinson for snaps behind Nico Collins. Dell avoided the PUP list to open training camp, but Caserio said he still isn't ready for full-team work.

        Panthers WR Chris Brazzell suffered a "moderate" LCL tear in his left knee Wednesday, according to multiple reports. He's expected to miss "up to eight weeks." Brazzell is headed for a second opinion. The third-round rookie had missed two practices earlier in the week because of soreness in the same knee.

        49ers RB Jordan James fractured a rib in Monday's practice and "will miss some time," ESPN's Nick Wagoner reports. James opened camp running as the No. 2 RB, but his absence gives rookie Kaelon Black a chance to grab that job.
