San Francisco 49ers DE Mykel Williams (knee) and DT Alfred Collins (shoulder) were placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 25.
Link to storySan Francisco 49ers RB Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: Guerendo tore his pec lifting weights earlier this spring, and the plan was for him to be ready somewhere near the end of training camp. On the PUP list, Guerendo can be activated at any time during camp/preseason. When healthy, Guerendo is competing for a backup spot behind starting RB Christian McCaffrey with guys like Jordan James and Kaelon Black. |
San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: Reports from earlier this month suggest Kittle is ahead of schedule in his recovery. Kittle admitted that he's had no setbacks earlier this offseason, and he believes that he's on track to play in Week 1. He has a current ADP of TE9 (9.06) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Los Angeles Rams first-round draft choice QB Ty Simpson agreed to terms on a four-year contract with the Rams Saturday, July 25, worth $25.4 million. The deal includes a fifth-year option.
| Footballguys view: The no.13 overall pick (that sent shockwaves around the NFL) can be seen as a future developmental starter for the Rams, and Simpson should be a good fit for the Sean McVay offense. While the Rams plan to manage QB Matthew Stafford's training camp reps, Simpson gets to impress the staff while competing with Stetson Bennett for the no.2 job. |
Buffalo Bills S Cole Bishop (knee) said he is feeling good physically leading up to training camp. Bishop missed some offseason workouts because of his injury.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua will report to training camp on time and participate in practices even though he is entering the final year of his contract, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: There was some speculation that Nacua could hold out as he seeks a new contract. One of the league's best receivers, Nacua has had a tumultuous offseason to say the least. Nacua could have to play out the year without an extension, even though Rams HC Sean McVay says he wants Nacua to be a Ram for a "really long time." We'll see him out there in camp, and then we'll monitor any progress on a new contract. |

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett did not take any snaps during the 11-on-11 portion of training camp practice Friday, July 24. However, he did some individual work and threw passes to WR Marvin Harrison Jr. after practice.
| Footballguys view: Brissett is set to be the starter for the Cardinals this year, but he's still playing on the two-year, $12.5 million contract he signed to backup Kyler Murray a year ago. Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur said the team has had "productive" negotiations with Brissett as they work toward a new contract. Once a new contract is worked out, Brissett should work as the starter in all drills. |

Chicago Bears WR Zavion Thomas could be used on special teams, at wide receiver and in the backfield this season.
| Footballguys view: Another day, and another report about Thomas being used in a variety of ways. The rookie receiver from LSU has been impressing this offseason, and Dynasty GMs are loving the news. Veteran WR Kalif Raymond should be the Bears' no.3 receiver behind Rome Odunze and Luther Burden. However, Thomas and that world-class speed are going to be tempting to get on the field - both on offense and special teams. Expect Thomas to push Raymond for snaps as the season goes on. |
Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas has a chance to earn a starting role this season, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network.
| Footballguys view: A third-round pick out of Texas Tech in the 2026 NFL Draft, Douglas has a great size-speed combination. With a large wingspan and the ability to take the top off the defense, Douglas could be a big-play weapon for QB Malik Willis. However, he needs to play with more physicality at the catch point and cut down on his concentration drops to truly play up to his potential. We'll see in training camp and the preseason how the Dolphins' WR depth chart shapes up with Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell, and Douglas competing for the top spots. |
Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) 'looks fast' during practice, according to head coach Dave Canales. 'He looks like the guy that I remember, and I'm really excited for that,' Canales said.
| Footballguys view: Brooks has been getting first-team reps in training camp, and there have been no limitations on him as he comes back from another knee injury. Most of his pro career has been missed due to ACL injuries, but expect a healthy Brooks to push for the eventual starting job in Carolina. At the beginning of the season, we expect Brooks and Chuba Hubbard to work in a RBBC. Brooks has a current ADP of RB38 (8.12) in 12-team PPR leagues. Injury risk is already cooked into his draft position, and clearly the upside is there for Brooks to do more. |
Carolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan (foot) has been able to practice at training camp after missing time during spring activities with a foot injury.
| Footballguys view: While limited in the spring, McMillan was planning on being ready for the start of training camp - which he is. He had a spectacular season as a rookie (70 catches, 1,014 yards, seven touchdowns), so Fantasy GMs are taking him at WR17 (4.01) in 12-team PPR leagues. With reports suggesting McMillan will play more 'big slot' this year, he could outperform his ADP. |
Los Angeles Chargers WR Tre Harris is expected to be 'a legitimate part of the passing offense' in 2026, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: This has been a consistent drumbeat this offseason - everyone is expecting a breakout season from Harris. The second-year pro has incredible run-after-the-catch skill, something that should serve him well in a Mike McDaniel offense. We like Harris as a WR7 for your fantasy team, and this positive offseason buzz means Fantasy GMs should be considering him a late-round flier. |
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) said he will start wearing a knee brace on his surgically repaired knee but does not knee if he will remove the brace at some point.
| Footballguys view: We'll see how Mahomes likes playing with the brace through training camp and the preseason. Mahomes has said that he plans to do "everything" he did before, and his recovery shows he's on track to do that. However, Mahomes has admitted that he might have run a bit too much last year. He plans to hand the ball off to RB Kenneth Walker "if all else fails" and "let him go to work." |

San Francisco 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan reportedly suffered significant injuries in a car accident on July 14. Assistant coach Chris Foerster will assume some of Shanahan's head coaching duties and help lead the team while Shanahan recuperates, according to a source on Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: The injuries will have Shanahan limited at the beginning of training camp. He will be participating in team activities, but the team will monitor their head coach as he recovers from multiple injuries (including a severe concussion). |
Kansas City Chiefs CB Mansoor Delane (shoulder) is undergoing a physical to see if he will be medically cleared to participate in training camp, according to head coach Andy Reid.

Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (ankle) practiced Thursday, July 23.
| Footballguys view: It is important that Conner practices so that he can retain trade value for the Cardinals, who have four viable running backs, and potential fantasy value as a target for any team that needs a veteran running back to bolster their depth chart or replace a starter who goes down with a practice or preseason injury. |

Chicago Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) is expected to start the regular season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list.
| Footballguys view: This is no surprise as the rookie left tackle ruptured his patellar tendon in the playoff win over the Packers. It will be good news if he can return during the regular season. Braxton Jones was the starter before Trapilo passed him on the depth chart last year, and he'll be the top option if he can stay healthy in training camp. |
Updating previous reports, Arizona Cardinals OT Paris Johnson Jr. (knee) and LB Josh Sweat (knee) are both on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list because of knee injuries, but neither injury is considered serious. Head coach Mike LaFleur said both could be back at practice next week.
| Footballguys view: Now we have expectations set by the team. If Johnson and Sweat are back next week, we can take this off of our list of situations to monitor. If not, then we'll have consider what this team would look like without their starting left tackle or best pass rusher. |

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett is scheduled to participate in practice Thursday, July 23, according to head coach Mike LaFleur.
| Footballguys view: There's no holdout here, as reportedly "productive" talks to add compensation to Brissett's contract are ongoing. Brissett is on track to start Week 1, but it sems unlikely that he will be starting in Week 18, and he could be replaced by fourth round pick Carson Beck once the team is out of playoff contention, or even once they have an extended losing streak. |

New York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) will not start training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list.
| Footballguys view: This won't be confirmed until Nabers passes a physical, but it is a turn to a more optimistic view of Nabers recovery from knee surgery than we heard during the offseason. His ADP is likely to spike back into the second round, and Jaxson Dart's stock could also be lifted by this news. Still, it was reported elsewhere yesterday that Nabers has a "realistic chance" of playing Week 1, which indicates that this isn't exactly a routine return from a routine knee surgery. Nabers had a second surgery around late April/early May to "clean up" scar tissue that was causing stiffness. We will be monitoring this closely, stay tuned. |
Updating a previous report, Carolina Panthers DE Nic Scourton (knee) is believed to have suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament during practice Thursday, July 23, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Cameron Wolfe. He is scheduled to receive a second opinion to confirm the injury and is expected to have surgery in a few weeks if it is confirmed.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers have lost their #2 defensive end - an ascendant 2025 second round pick - in addition to being without their starting left and right tackles to open the season. One of their starting guards and starting corners are going for scans to have back issues checked out. After it felt like the team was turning things around after pushing the Rams to the brink in the wild card round of the playoffs, Carolina has a lot of adversity to overcome before most teams have even started training camp. |

New England Patriots WR Jimmy Kibble (undisclosed) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Friday, July 24.
Link to storyKansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) has been cleared to practice during training camp, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: This is good news after Rice had a minor knee surgery and then immediately reported to jail for 30 days for a probation violation. He was allowed to leave jail for injury rehab, and the surgery was in May, so as long as Rice doesn't have a setback, we can consider him healthy. |

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) has clearance to practice 'fully,' according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: This isn't a surprise now, but it would have been right after he suffered a catastrophic knee injury and had surgery on December 15. That means he has been cleared to practice fully a little over seven months after going under the knife. He's just built different, mentally and physically. Still, you have to wonder if the team will limit his running, at least early in the season, which was a big source of fantasy value for Mahomes last year. |
