  Packers | MarShawn Lloyd needs to earn role    Thu May 28, 04:47 PM

Green Bay Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd has looked good so far this offseason, but head coach Matt LaFleur said Lloyd will have to show consistency during offseason workouts and training camp in order to have a role in the offense.

Footballguys view: The Packers let running back Emanuel Wilson depart in free agency and did not replace him with a pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. That's viewed as a signal of the team's remaining confidence in 2024 Lloyd, who has been limited by injuries to just one appearance since his arrival. The Packers also have Chris Brooks, Pierre Strong Jr., and Damien Martinez behind Josh Jacobs, who is now dealing with off-field issues. One concern: Lloyd is not working fully at this point -- something all involved need to see when training camp opens.

  Texans | Tank Dell works on side    Thu May 28, 04:28 PM

Houston Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) worked on a side field during the voluntary workout Thursday, May 28.

Footballguys view: Dell dislocated his knee cap and tore his ACL, MCL, and LCL while catching a touchdown pass against the Kansas City Chiefs two seasons ago. Dell underwent a pair of surgeries and has made significant progress, but he's still not ready to practice. The Texans are taking a patient, big-picture approach with Dell. He has been running routes and cutting for months, but not at full speed. The hope is that he can ramp up his participation by training camp and regain his old dynamic form. There are no guarantees, but it's great to see him making progress.

  Texans | Brevin Jordan takes part in workout    Thu May 28, 04:22 PM

Houston Texans TE Brevin Jordan (knee) participated in the voluntary workout Thursday, May 28, according to head coach DeMeco Ryans.

Footballguys view: Jordan has sustained major injuries in each of the past two seasons. He tore his ACL against the Chicago Bears two years ago. And then he tore his patellar tendon in the same leg last August during a routine training camp practice. The team is managing the workload and stress on his leg to avoid any setbacks. We'll monitor his progress in training camp, but Dalton Schultz remains the lone fantasy prospect at the position in Houston.

  Rams | Matthew Stafford not looking to retire    Thu May 28, 04:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford said he is looking to play beyond the 2026 season but will take things on a year-to-year basis.

Footballguys view: The Rams have already begun planning for a future without him by drafting quarterback Ty Simpson in the first round, Stafford said he'll attempt to manage the end of his career in a way that works for the team. Meanwhile, the veteran heads into his sixth season with the Rams after playing 12 with the Lions. After finishing as QB2 in 2024, Stafford is being drafted as QB14 this year. That price leaves a lot of room for upside

  Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes working towards a return    Thu May 28, 03:30 PM

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) told the media on Thursday, May 28, that he is working towards returning for the team's training camp.

Footballguys view: Despite being only six months removed from surgery to repair his torn ACL, Mahomes appears to be progressing rapidly in his recovery and was already back on the field throwing during OTAs this week -- something head coach Andy Reid addressed on Thursday. "He's busted his tail to put himself in this position," Reid said. The exact timeline for Mahomes' return remains undecided, though the goal is still for him to be ready by Week 1. With roughly three months remaining before the season begins, there is still plenty of time for him to ramp up further. Stay tuned.

  Chiefs | Xavier Worthy wearing a non-contact jersey at OTAs    Thu May 28, 03:18 PM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy was seen wearing a non-contact jersey at the team's OTAs on Thursday, May 28. No injury was disclosed for the reason of wearing the jersey.

Footballguys view: According to the Kansas City star, Worthy underwent offseason shoulder surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. He finished with 42 receptions for 532 yards and one touchdown in 2025, his second season in the NFL. The Star's Blair Kerkhoff reports that Worthy still managed to flash on some highlight receptions from Patrick Mahomes, also in a non-contact jersey in his return from a torn ACL, during Thursday's 7-on-7 drills.

  Saints | Alvin Kamara absent from OTAs    Thu May 28, 02:36 PM

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara was not present at OTAs on Thursday, May 28.

Footballguys view: Kamara sitting out voluntary sessions isn't unusual. As noted by Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.football on Wednesday, Kamara has been working out with his own trainers in preparation for 2026, as he often does. But given that general manager Mickey Loomis said earlier this month that the team is "trying to see how [Kamara is] gonna fit on our roster," it's notable that Kamara isn't in attendance -- even if it's not out of the ordinary. The team signed former Jaguar Travis Etienne Jr. this offseason. We'll continue to watch for more.

  Bears | Ben Johnson offers high praise of Luther Burden III    Thu May 28, 02:28 PM

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson told reporters on Thursday, May 28, 'I'm buying Luther Burden stock right now.'

Footballguys view: As NFL.com's Bobby Kownack suggested, if fantasy investors wanted some insider trading tips in May, we just got it. Burden, the 39th-overall pick by Chicago in the 2025 NFL Draft, was impactful as a rookie but took time to get going -- both due to still getting acclimated and working behind Rome Odunze and DJ Moore. Burden finished with 47 receptions, 652 yards, and two touchdowns thanks to a strong five-game finish. With Moore traded to Buffalo, it's easy to project great things for Burden, but when the coach/playcaller joins the chorus, the hype level skyrockets.

  Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett 'just fine' missing OTAs    Thu May 28, 01:14 PM

Arizona Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur says QB Jacoby Brissett is 'just fine' despite him missing time at the team's OTAs.

Footballguys view: Brissett is entering the second year of a two-year deal he signed in March 2025. He is scheduled to make $4.88 million in 2026, with a max value of $5.39 million, but only $1.5 million is guaranteed. Despite LaFleur bringing a new scheme, the coach cites Brissett's 10 seasons across six teams. "He's played a lot of ball," LaFleur said, "So, he'll be just fine." Arizona will hold a mandatory minicamp on June 8-10, which will result in a fine of $107,911 for any player who misses all three days.

  Jets | Kenyon Sadiq has surgery    Thu May 28, 11:40 AM

New York Jets first-round pick TE Kenyon Sadiq (abdomen) underwent minor surgery to repair a hernia, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. Sadiq is expected back for training camp. The team said they knew about the issue before the draft.

Footballguys view: "It's something that he dealt with, and we knew about it going into his last year of college, and he dealt with it during rookie minicamp," head coach Aaron Glenn said. The Jets expect Sadiq to be a key contributor this season, so missed practice time is potentially significant. They used first-round picks on Sadiq and wide receiver Omar Cooper, Jr., with the hope of adding more explosiveness to their offense. Sadiq played with the injury through part of last season, missing one game for Oregon. We'll be watching his status when training camp opens.

  Eagles | A.J. Brown trade not close    Thu May 28, 10:29 AM

Philadelphia Eagles WR A.J. Brown is not close to being traded as the team is seeking a first-round pick in return, and teams aren't willing to meet the price.

Footballguys view: While we're all hoping for a quick resolution post-June 1, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network said on Wednesday night that the Patriots and Eagles may still be haggling over the trade terms. "I just don't know that it's going to be like 'snap your fingers, and the deal is done,'" Rapoport said. "They're not particularly close, and there's a chance this could drag on for the foreseeable future." Still, as Profootballtalk.com notes, just because the two sides haven't agreed on compensation at this point does not mean a deal won't go through next week. Stay tuned.

It's also worth noting that Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh told reporters that Quentin Johnston, Tre Harris, and McConkey have all looked elite. We'll see how much work all three get, but consider McConkey the top option here.

  Packer | Josh Jacobs released; no charges filed at this time, investigation ongoing    Wed May 27, 03:21 PM

Running back Josh Jacobs has been released from jail Wednesday after his arrest on several domestic violence charges. No charges have been filed at this time, but the Brown County (Wisconsin) District Attorney's Office said the investigation "remains open and ongoing."

Footballguys view: Jacobs, 28, was booked Tuesday on charges of battery, criminal damage to property, domestic abuse, disorderly conduct/strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim. Jacobs, through his attorneys, denied the allegations on Tuesday. Head coach Matt LaFleur opened a Wednesday press conference by making his first public comments on Jacobs. "I'm gonna stick with the statement that we put out as an organization and just let the process play out," LaFleur said. It's safe to say this story is moving fast. Fantasy investors should follow LaFleur's lead and take a beat here to see how it plays out.

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert reported for the voluntary workout Wednesday, May 27, according to head coach Jim Harbaugh.

Footballguys view: Harbaugh said Herbert was supporting his girlfriend, Madison Beer, on her tour. Herbert informed Harbaugh of his plans to miss some of Phase 2. The coach apparently took the news in stride. Harbaugh claims his initial response to Herbert was, "Do you need a ride to the airport?" Whatever the case, a refreshed Herbert is back and working with new OC Mike McDaniel, so all's well that ends well.

  Jaguars | No clear No. 1 back for Jaguars    Wed May 27, 02:27 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars RBs Bhayshul Tuten, Chris Rodriguez Jr. and LeQuint Allen are expected to receive playing time this upcoming season, but head coach Liam Coen said the team does not have a No. 1 running back at this point and there will be a competition during training camp for playing time.

Footballguys view: Tuten was being drafted in the fifth round as RB23 immediately after the NFL Draft. He's RB25 now. Rodriguez is RB45, available in Round 11. For fantasy investors, that's the entire problem in three sentences. The fifth-round price assumes Tuten gets the lion's share -- the carries, the goal-line work, the passing-down snaps -- of the workload. We're not there yet. We'll be following up on this situation often in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.

  Patriots | No Kayshon Boutte Wednesday    Wed May 27, 02:08 PM

New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte did not participate in the voluntary workout Wednesday, May 27.

Footballguys view: It's unclear why Boutte isn't there, but it's not new. The sixth-round pick in the 2023 draft hasn't been taking part in voluntary sessions to date. Boutte, entering the final year of his rookie deal at a base salary of $3.674 million, is eligible for a new contract. He might be withholding services in hopes of getting a new deal. It's also fair to wonder if talk of acquiring Eagles WR A.J. Brown is a factor. Boutte has never had more than 589 receiving yards in any of his three NFL seasons. We'll continue to monitor.

  Dolphins | No timetable for Chris Bell    Wed May 27, 01:44 PM

Miami Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) will be able to do some running during offseason workouts but there is no timetable for his return to the lineup, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.

Footballguys view: As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom noted, Bell fell a little farther than some expected, but he landed in the perfect spot. The Dolphins are in rebuilding mode and won't rush him back from his 2025 ACL tear. When Bell is ready to play, his strengths as a runaway train on crossing patterns and a big ball winner on the outside fit with Malik Willis's strengths. Once he's ready, Bell will compete with Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert, and Tutu Atwell, along with rookies Caleb Douglas and Kevin Coleman, for playing time. Bell is an eventual WR1 candidate for Miami.

  Ravens | Rashod Bateman remains absent    Wed May 27, 01:39 PM

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman was not present for the voluntary workout Wednesday, May 27.

Footballguys view: Bateman has been an off-and-on participant in the voluntary program. It's not clear why he's out today, but with a revamped and new coaching staff, schemes, and plays, his absences are noteworthy. Bateman is coming off the worst season of his career, and the team added two big-bodied receivers in April's NFL Draft. Ja'Kobi Lane was selected out of USC in the third round, and Indiana's Elijah Sarratt was added later in the fourth. Again, these are voluntary sessions. We'll monitor this and report back as needed.

  Packers | Micah Parsons likely starting camp on PUP list    Wed May 27, 01:17 PM

Green Bay Packers DE Micah Parsons (knee) will likely start training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list, according to head coach Matt LaFleur.

Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter recently suggested that Parson is a candidate to start the 2026 regular season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list. If so, he'd miss at least the first six games, so his progress is worth watching when camp opens. The Packers don't have another proven edge rusher after they traded Rashan Gary to the Cowboys in the offseason. We'll be monitoring the reports on 2023 first round pick Lukas Van Ness and this year's fourth round pick Dani Dennis-Sutton to see if edge rush help is on the way while Parsons is on the mend.

  Packers | Tucker Kraft may be ready for camp    Wed May 27, 01:12 PM

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) hopefully will be available for the start of training camp or shortly after camp starts, according to head coach Matt LaFleur.

Footballguys view: "He looks so good, you'd want to put him out there," LaFleur said of Kraft. "But certainly we're still early in that process. Hopefully, he'll be ready to go either by training camp or early in training camp." Kraft was off to a strong start before his injury last season, with 32 catches for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight games. If he's healthy, he's a big part of the Packers' offense and one of the best tight ends in football. LaFleur sounds confident that Kraft, who currently boasts a TE6 ADP, will be healthy in Week 1.

  Falcons | Michael Penix not ready for full practice    Wed May 27, 01:06 PM

Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) is able to participate in individual drills and seven-on-seven drills but has not been cleared for team drills at this point, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski.

Footballguys view: "He's not 100 percent, but he's exactly where he needs to be," Stefanski said of the third-year quarterback. Once Penix is ready, the 2024 first-round draft pick is expected to compete with offseason signee Tua Tagovailoa for the starting job. As Field Level Media notes, both quarterbacks are entering a new offensive scheme led by Stefanski and offensive coordinator Tommy Rees. The Falcons also have QBs Trevor Siemian and undrafted rookie Jack Strand on the roster.

  Packers | LaFleur: Packers will let the process play out with Josh Jacobs    Wed May 27, 12:37 PM

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur opened a Wednesday press conference by making his first public comments on running back Josh Jacobs' arrest. "I'm gonna stick with the statement that we put out as an organization and just let the process play out," LaFleur said, via Michael Gross of Fox 11 News.

Footballguys view: Jacobs was arrested in Wisconsin over the weekend and faces five criminal charges, including a felony charge of strangulation. The Packers released a statement saying they were aware of the matter and declining further comment. LaFleur was asked whether the team would be making plans to play without Jacobs for some portion of the season and said, "A lot's gonna happen between now and then" before answering another question about the overall makeup of the running back group. "I like the guys that we have, but, certainly, you can never have enough," LaFleur said. Stay tuned.

  Dolphins | De'Von Achane rehabbing    Wed May 27, 11:25 AM

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) is doing rehab work with trainers at organized team activities. Achane had cleanup surgery on his shoulder after the season and should be ready for training camp.

Footballguys view: Achane missed the final game of the 2025 season because of the injury, and head coach Jeff Hafley said the team will be cautious as they head toward training camp. "You'll see him out there doing some drills and doing some running around," Hafley said. "You will not see him in full team drills." As Profootballtalk.com's Josh Alper noted, the Dolphins signed Achane to a four-year, $64 million contract extension this month. It's unlikely they would have made that commitment if they weren't confident in his long-term health, so Achane should be moving full speed ahead soon enough.
