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.
Niners WR Ricky Pearsall is sitting out of Wednesday's practice because of swelling in the same knee he injured last season, according to multiple reports. The PCL injury in that knee cost him eight games, including some late season aggravations.
Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq took the field Wednesday for the start of training camp, confirming that he and the team appropriately timed his "minor procedure" to address a hernia. The issue had lingered since Sadiq's final college season, and HC Aaron Glenn said back in May that they expected the rookie to be ready for training camp.
The Jaguars opened training-camp practices Wednesday morning, and second-year lightning rod Travis Hunter played first-team snaps on both offense and defense.
Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs wasn't participating for the open of training camp on Wednesday. The Lions picked up Gibbs' fifth-year option in April, tying him to the team through the 2027 season. But his absence from camp is likely tied to his desire for a long-term contract.
The Falcons held their first training camp practice on Wednesday, but star RB Bijan Robinson didn't participate. Robinson is likely seeking a long-term contract ahead of his fourth NFL season.
The Steelers drafted WR Roman Wilson in Round 3 in 2024. Since then, he has tallied just 12 total receptions across two pro seasons. That made him a surprising target for praise Tuesday.
Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. rolled his left ankle over the weekend but was back practicing with the team Tuesday. That confirms the issue was as minor as suspected. Barring any further setbacks, this shouldn't impact your outlook for Harrison in 2026 (and didn't affect our projections).
New England's renovated WR corps will be interesting to watch throughout the summer, and the first days of camp have already supplied some interesting notes. A.J. Brown, for one thing, has reportedly gotten off to a slow start in his connection with QB Drake Maye. According to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald, Brown caught just three of 10 passes from his new QB through Tuesday's workout, limited to the short range. Kayshon Boutte, meanwhile, "has been a highlight machine" despite running fourth among Pats wideouts. Romeo Doubs and DeMario Douglas have joined Brown as the top three.
Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks was a full participant in Tuesday's padded practice, likely his first real contact since tearing his ACL in December 2024. He missed all of training camp in both 2024 and 2025 while rehabbing a pair of ACL injuries.
SI's Albert Breer visited Seahawks training camp early this week and had an interesting take on the return timeline for RB Zach Charbonnet in his recovery from a January ACL tear. Charbonnet's currently on the physically unable to perform list but eligible to come off at any point the team deems him ready to practice. If he stays on the PUP throughout camp, the RB would be eligible to stay on the list into the season. That would cost him at least the first four games.
