The Bears signed McCloud to a contract Monday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

With Luther Burden (groin) and Zavion Thomas (knee) both sidelined, McCloud was signed as an additional depth piece at wide receiver. Wide receiver Kyron Hudson (undisclosed) was waived/injured in a corresponding move. McCloud will likely have to beat out fellow veteran Scotty Miller for the No. 6 receiver role in order to garner a spot on the 53-man roster.

Bobo (hamstring) was a full participant in Monday's practice, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.

Bobo missed two weeks with a hamstring issue but is now back in action. The wide receiver's return means Emmanuel Henderson and Cody White will likely be fighting for the final 53-man roster spot, assuming the Seahawks once again keep six wide receivers. Bobo should slot right back into his roles as a key special-teamer and depth option for the offense.

Hyatt appeared to injure his right ankle at the end of Monday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Hyatt had a strong minicamp with the Giants and is making a push to once again be a consistent piece of the team's wide receiving corps. The 24-year-old played snaps in just eight regular-season contests in 2025, and an ankle injury would not help his chances of returning to the Giants' 53-man roster.

The Chargers waived Morrow on Monday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.

In a corresponding transaction, the Chargers signed outside linebacker Andre Carter. Morrow, who went undrafted after his final season at Upper Iowa University last year, will become a free agency unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period.

Covey (hamstring) was a limited participant in Monday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.

Covey has been absent with a hamstring issue since last Wednesday, so a return to limited participation is a good sign for the punt returner's recovery. Any extended absence on Covey's part could open the door for Will Shipley or Tank Bigsby to make a case for the role of primary punt returner.

Wilson (knee) did not participate in Monday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.

Wilson suffered a season-ending knee injury in August 2025, but he was back on the field for the Eagles' OTAs in late May. The reoccurrence of a knee injury does not bode well, but the severity of the issue still remains unclear. Wilson was receiving some first-team wide-receiver reps before his injury, meaning his absence affords Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore additional opportunity to usurp him in the Eagles' air attack.

Thomas is dealing with knee soreness but isn't expected to miss much time, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Thomas left Sunday's practice early with a knee injury and is day-to-day as he recovers from the issue. The wide receiver has been thrust into a more relevant role for at least the preseason after Luther Burden (groin) left Saturday's practice with a significant injury. The faster Thomas can return to the field, the more time he has to convince the coaching staff he deserves an increase in regular-season reps and targets alongside his kick-return duties.

The Texans signed Winfree to a contract Monday.

Winfree worked out with the Texans on Saturday and appears to have flashed enough to warrant a 90-man roster spot. The wide receiver spent training camp time with Houston leading up to the 2025 season as well, and it remains to be seen if the 29-year-old will do enough to make a case to eventually survive cutdown day.

Mims (undisclosed) was spotted working on a side field during the individual period of Monday's practice, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Per Gabriel, Mims, who left Friday's practice with an apparent injury and then didn't work Saturday, was present in pads for Monday's session, but it looks like the wideout is being eased back into the mix. Mims thus falls in the day-to-day category as Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons approaches.

Cooper is listed behind Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchellon the Jets' initial unofficial depth chart, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.

Preseason depth charts can often be taken with a grain of salt, especially when it comes to rookies, and it's not especially surprising to see Cooper listed behind a pair of returnees. In any case, the 2026 first-rounder figures to see his share of snaps out of the gate this season in three-receiver sets, with the Indiana product's fantasy upside hinging on how quickly and how well he and veteran QB Geno Smith build their on-field chemistry.
