Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) will probably not play in any of the preseason games, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes ACL/LCL surgery was in December, but he was still fully cleared for camp. It sounds like we won't get to see him in live game action before the season opener, a tough matchup against Denver in Kansas City. The next three matchups are against the Colts, Dolphins, and Raiders before an early Week 5 bye, which is a boon for Mahomes and the Chiefs to check in how his knee is responding. If you have Mahomes as your fantasy quarterback, you should have a good backup and one that preferably has a good matchup in Week 1. |

Indianapolis Colts CB Cam Taylor-Britt has been suspended for one game for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.
Link to storyTennessee Titans G Peter Skoronski has agreed to a contract extension on Friday, Aug. 7. The terms of the deal are a four-year deal worth up to $100 million with $88 million guaranteed.
| Footballguys view: Skoronski is the best player on a Titans offensive line that is the weak link in the offense. Hopefully 2024 first round pick JC Latham can play well enough this year at right tackle to deserve the same kind of deal next year. The Titans offense can't create multiple overachievers in fantasy leagues without this line somehow coming together under offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo, who came over from the Giants staff along with new Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. |
Free agent LB Deion Jones (Buccaneers) signed a one-year deal with the New Orleans Saints on Friday, Aug. 7. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Link to storyKansas City Chiefs OG Trey Smith (hip) missed practice on Friday, Aug. 7. Head coach Andy Reid is not worried about his availability.
Link to storyCleveland Browns WR KC Concepcion told reports he has an AC joint sprain in his shoulder from falling on it, but he is fine, according to The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot.
| Footballguys view: Concepcion and fellow Browns high draft pick Denzel Boston have stolen the show in camp and are on the fast track to be primary targets at wide receiver. We'll monitor the Cleveland practice reports to make sure he doesn't have a recurrence of the injury. |
Arizona Cardinals QB Carson Beck completed 15 of his 19 passes for 188 yards and a touchdown during the Hall of Fame Game against the Carolina Panthers Thursday, Aug. 6.
| Footballguys view: Beck was the story of a surprisingly entertaining shootout to open the NFL preseason schedule. He was impressive enough that at least one Cardinals beat writer opined that the team needs to start Beck early in the season to see what they have him in before deciding what they will do at quarterback in 2027. This outcome was also a good sign for new head coach Mike LaFleur's offense and its ability to get wide receivers open. |
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) did not finish practice Thursday, Aug. 6.
| Footballguys view: With Alvin Kamara's services secured for another season, the Saints have a surplus of running backs behind him and free agent signing Travis Etienne. Neal didn't look out of place on an NFL field after Kamara went down last year before his season ended with a hamstring injury. It's not clear yet whether this is the same hamstring that caused a problem last year, but if it is, Neal could be an injured reserve candidate because the team also has Kendre Miller coming back from ACL surgery (but currently sidelined with a back issue), and Audric Estime, a 2024 Broncos fifth round pick who was a pleasant surprise after Neal went down last year. |
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson has shown a 'clear connection' with QB Dak Prescott on intermediate and seam throws during training camp, according to Todd Archer of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: This might be more newsworthy if it was about a player who wasn't already fantasy relevant last season. In fact, Ferguson was the #1 tight end in fantasy leagues for a bit thanks to a spike in target volume when CeeDee Lamb was hurt. By the end of the season, Ferguson was a non-factor, so this is good news if you have been drafting him in spite of the second half swoon. |
Dallas Cowboys LB Jaishawn Barham (groin) suffered a groin injury Thursday, Aug. 6, but the injury is not believed to be serious, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Barham is in the same mold as #5 overall pick Arvell Reese - a defender who can rush the quarterback from the edge and also handle off-ball linebacker duties. He had been flashing in his first camp, with some observers speculating that he could push free agent signing Dee Winters for a starting job at inside linebacker. The other projected starting inside linebacker - DeMarvion Overshown - is coming back from ACL surgery, so the depth Barham could provide if the missed practice time from this injury doesn't set his development back from its strong early pace would be valuable for this defense under new coordinator Christian Parker. |
Chicago Bears CB Dallis Flowers (leg) and S Gervarrius Owens (leg) suffered 'significant leg injuries' during practice Thursday, Aug. 6, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Neither Flowers or Owens were slated to play large roles this year, but the team has already lost projected starting safety Coby Bryant for 8-10 weeks and standout nickel corner Kyler Gordon is still out with a calf injury that is frustrating head coach Ben Johnson. Backup safety Elijah Hicks, who could start in place of Bryant to open the season, is also on the PUP list with a shin injury, but could join the team in practice soon. No matter how you add it up, the Bears secondary is a big question mark for Week 1 at the Carolina Panthers - a team that has had a plethora of injuries this summer themselves. |
Baltimore Ravens PK Tyler Loop connected on all seven of his field goal attempts during practice Thursday, Aug. 6, including kicks from 53 yards and 61 yards.
| Footballguys view: Loop had a very successful rookie year after the Ravens took him in the sixth round to replace Justin Tucker, but his maiden voyage ended with a miss on an attempt that would have given the team the AFC North title and sent them to the playoffs. Instead, the rival Steelers advanced. It doesn't appear that he has any confidence issues in his second training camp after Loop made a kick at the end of a recent open practice to avert the disaster of the team having to do 50 pushups after practice. Earlier in the offseason, he also made a kick to get the team out of their last round of meetings following the end of mandatory minicamp. |
Cleveland Browns WR Jamari Thrash was waived by the team on Friday, Aug. 7.
Link to storyMinnesota Vikings QB Kyler Murray has shown 'plenty of indications' that he remains the favorite to win the team's starting quarterback job, according to ESPN's Kevin Seifert.
| Footballguys view: The tenor around this quarterback battle has changed in the last 2-3 days, with JJ McCarthy disappointing in his time on the practice field. Kevin O'Connell could be on the verge of calling this for Murray and giving him all of the first team reps to better prepare for the upcoming season. Carson Wentz is also on the roster, so McCarthy is going to fall to third string quarterback and could be traded if there is any team that will give draft capital to assume the requirements of his rookie contract. |

Atlanta Falcons LB Troy Andersen was released by the team on Friday, Aug. 7.
Link to storyHouston Texans WR Jaylin Noel was activated from the Non-Football Injury list on Friday, Aug. 7.
Link to storyKansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) remains out of practice Friday, Aug. 7.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs reassured us that this was minor when it happened earlier in the week, but the injury is to the same shoulder that basically ruined his 2025 when he dislocated it in a Week 1 collision with Travis Kelce. Tyquan Thornton becomes a more attractive late round sleeper with every day that Worthy misses, as he has already demonstrated great deep ball chemistry with Patrick Mahomes, and the team brought him back on a two year, $11 million deal this offseason. |
Kansas City Chiefs WR Cyrus Allen (shin) returned to practice Friday, Aug. 7.
| Footballguys view: Allen's absence from practice was short, which is good news because Xavier Worthy is out right now with a shoulder injury. Allen has created enough buzz and had enough snaps with the starters to think that he has a real chance to play a lot right away and be a fantasy factor if he continues to dominate practice like he did before suffering a shin injury in punt gunner drills. Allen should be on your late round target list. |
Buffalo Bills OG O'Cyrus Torrence agreed to a four-year, $78.4 million extension Friday, Aug. 7. The deal includes $46 million guaranteed, and he becomes the seventh highest-paid guard in the NFL.
| Footballguys view: Torrence was a second-round pick in 2023 for the Bills and he has been everything the team hoped he would be. Their other starting guard from 2025, David Edwards, was signed to a big contract by the Saints this offseason. Alec Anderson and Austin Corbett are competing to replace Edwards at left guard, the only spot on the line that will have turnover from the 2025 lineup. |
