The Seahawks are expected to waive McIntosh, who is continuing to recover from a torn ACL, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

McIntosh saw action in all 17 of Seattle's regular-season games in 2024 but tore his ACL during training camp last July and spent the entire campaign on IR. He was placed on the active/PUP list last Wednesday and hasn't yet been able to practice during training camp. It appears Seattle will ultimately elect to part ways with McIntosh, who had been expected to compete for depth reps in the team's backfield in 2026.

Owens was placed on the active/non-football illness list by the Vikings on Monday.

The running back can be activated from the list at any point during training camp once he's ready to practice. Owens was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Vikings in April after recording 1,334 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on 213 carries (6.3 YPC) with Florida International last season.

Indianapolis waived Pare (undisclosed) with a non-football injury designation Monday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

It's not immediately clear what type of injury Pare is tending to. Presuming he's not claimed by another team during the current waiver period, he'll be heading back to free agency and able to suit up for another team once he's healthy again.

The Packers have placed Brooks (undisclosed) on the active/non-football injury list ahead of training camp, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Brooks appears to be dealing with an undisclosed injury that was not sustained during football-related activities. The veteran third-down specialist signed a two-year extension with Green Bay this offseason and is in position to compete with MarShawn Lloyd for reserve opportunities behind starter Josh Jacobs. If Brooks' health keeps him off the field during the early stages of training camp, however, Lloyd will benefit from increased chances to secure the No. 2 backfield role.

Holani and rookie first-round pick Jadarian Price have split first-team reps during the early days of training camp, Gregg Bell of The News Tribune reports.

Holani was often the first RB up for first-team reps during OTAs, and at this stage he and Price appear to have cemented themselves atop the depth chart, with Zach Charbonnet (ACL) on the active/PUP list and Emanuel Wilson seemingly in a depth role. Seahawks coaches have reportedly stressed Price growing as a pass catcher, but unless the rookie is able to make rapid improvements throughout camp, Holani could be the favorite for third-down reps come Week 1. The early-season workload split beyond that point seems like it will come down to a true competition between Price and Holani, though once Charbonnet is cleared to return Seattle could end up deploying all three to some extent.

Price is sharing first-team backfield work with George Holani early in Seahawks training camp, Gregg Bell of The News Tribune reports.

Price appears to be focusing on improvements in the passing game to begin his NFL career. Despite Price's first-round draft capital and superior burst, Holani has earned enough trust over his years with Seattle to manufacture a real competition for opportunities in the receiving game. With Zach Charbonnet (ACL) still working his way back from knee surgery and having begun camp on the active/PUP list, Price has a clear path to a significant role Week 1 if he can separate from Holani during camp. Emanuel Wilson, meanwhile, appears to be trending toward a depth role.

Sanders (knee/ankle) is working out for the Raiders on Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

The 29-year-old running back spent the 2025 campaign with Dallas and rushed 20 times for 117 yards and one touchdown across four regular-season appearances before landing on injured reserve Week 5 due to a season-ending knee injury that required surgery. Now healthy, Sanders is looking for his next opportunity. He hasn't been particularly effective since rushing for 1,269 yards and 11 touchdowns during a 2022 regular season with the Eagles in which he was named to his lone Pro Bowl.

Larison appears to the early leader to serve as the Patriots' No. 3 running back behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

Also in the mix for slotting behind the top duo are Terrell Jennings (undisclosed), Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery, but after spending the entire 2025 campaign on IR due to a foot injury, Larison is making a push to claim a complementary backfield role ahead of Week 1. In any case, the back who emerges as New England's No. 3 option has modest fantasy upside as long as Stevenson and Henderson are healthy.

James appears to be operating as the No. 2 running back behind Christian McCaffrey to begin training camp, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

James already looked like the favorite for San Francisco's top backup job, and a strong early camp will only strengthen his case over rookie Kaelon Black and veterans Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) and Patrick Taylor. McCaffrey remains locked in as the 49ers' offensive centerpiece, but James would carry meaningful fantasy value if he secures the No. 2 role outright. A 2025 fifth-round pick, James suited up for only three regular-season game as a rookie.

The 49ers placed Guerendo (pectoral) on the active/PUP list Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Guerendo is still recovering from a torn pectoral he suffered while lifting earlier in the offseason. While the 26-year-old will be unable to practice for now, he is expected to return at some point before the end of training camp.
