Moore and the Bears have come to terms on a four-year, $110 million extension that includes $82.5 million guaranteed, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

After spending his first five seasons in Carolina, Moore produced career highs across the board with the Bears in 2023, including 1,364 yards and eight touchdowns on 96 receptions. The Chicago offense will look drastically different this year, as Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze join the receiving room and 2024 first overall pick Caleb Williams takes over as the starting QB. Chicago also added tight end Gerald Everett and running back D'Andre Swift in the offseason, so it seems unlikely that Moore will be able to match his 28.8 percent target share from last year, regardless of his salary.

Ali (ankle) participated in drills at the Falcons' training camp Tuesday.

Ali missed the entire 2023 season due to an ankle injury, but he appears to be fully healthy. He was able to make the Falcons' 53-man roster last year, and he'll look to do so again as a depth wide receiver.

Davis, who sustained a thigh injury in practice Monday, is expected to be sidelined for a couple of weeks, Mike Kaye of the Charlotte Observer reports.

Davis joined the Panthers in June after playing with the UFL's Memphis Showboats this past spring, finishing with 41 catches for 446 yards and five touchdowns in 10 games. The injury may keep Davis out of the Panthers' first preseason game against the Patriots on August 8, but he could be available against the Jets on August 17.

Wilson (ankle) is expected to be ready for the start of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

It sounds like Wilson should be considered week-to-week, as the Steelers will ease him back into the swing of things after he sustained an ankle injury in camp Tuesday. The 2024 third-rounder is expected to compete with the likes of Van Jefferson, Calvin Austin and Quez Watkins for reps at receiver behind George Pickens, but a lengthy absence could hurt Wilson's ability to build chemistry with Russell Wilson (calf) and Justin Fields.

The Steelers let go of Callaway on Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Callaway signed with the Steelers on a reserve/future contract in January after finishing the 2023 season on the Saints' practice squad. He played in three regular-season games for New Orleans last year, but did not register a catch across his 27 snaps on offense. Callaway's most productive season came in 202, when he registered 46 catches for 698 yards and six touchdowns across 17 regular-season games with the Saints.

The Panthers signed Robinson to a contract Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

The move comes with Carolina placing running back Rashaad Penny on the reserve/retired list. Robinson signed with the Ravens in April as an undrafted free agent but he was waived by Baltimore on June 26. Robinson accumulated 81 catches for 1,049 yards and seven touchdowns over his last two collegiate seasons with Kentucky. He has experience as a punt returner, which could help him catch onto the Panther's 53-man roster or practice squad at the conclusion of training camp.

The Falcons waived Wooden on Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

Wooden signed with the Falcons as an undrafted free agent in April. He spent the last two years of his collegiate career with Southern Utah, accumulating 99 catches for 1,682 yards and 20 touchdowns over that span. Wooden will explore his next options should he clear waivers.

Skowronek has stood out during the first two weeks of training camp, Jonathan M. Alexander and Jon Poorman of the Houston Chronicle report.

The caveat here is that Skowronek is working with the second-team offense against Houston's second stringers on defense. What stands out is the receiver's size at 6-foot-3 and his ability to make contested catches. The Texans' top three wideouts are set with Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell, but Skowronek is making a bid to be fourth on the depth chart over the likes of Noah Brown or Robert Woods.

Bateman (undisclosed) isn't practicing Tuesday, Bo Smolka of Press Box reports.

Bateman will miss at least one practice after taking a hard hit to the torso Monday. Coach John Harbaugh downplayed the severity of the issue and suggested it's nothing more than soreness, which means Bateman should be back at practice quickly. The Ravens have hinted that he could take over as their No. 2 wide receiver all offseason, and it seems Bateman's still on track for that role ahead of 31-year-old Nelson Agholor and 2024 fourth-round pick Devontez Walker.

Coach Dennis Allen said the Saints are still waiting on Perry to step up and make some plays this summer, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Allen's assessment was less than glowing, to put it politely. He said Perry has been "fine" during training camp and is "talented enough to make the team" but needs to show it more often on the practice field. There's been some thought Perry could step in as a regular starter for the receiver-needy Saints after his late-season cameo as a rookie in 2023, but Allen's comments make it sound like he's fighting for a roster spot. Cedrick Wilson, Equanimeous St. Brown, Bub Means and Mason Tipton are the other main candidates for snaps behind starters Chris Olave (hip) and Rashid Shaheed.
