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.

Lane has been the buzz of Ravens training camp over the first couple weeks, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.

According to Mink, Lane is making highlight-reel catches on what feels like a daily basis, and even Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com said Saturday that in his 27 years of covering the team, Lane has had the best rookie training camp he's ever seen. While Lane is doing it all on the practice field, he'll need to replicate it during preseason action if he's going to keep surging for a role in three-wide sets alongside Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman. Third-round rookie Lane's top competition for snaps appears to be Devontez Walker and 2026 fourth-rounder Elijah Sarratt.

Coach Todd Monken said Monday that Boston will start working with the first-team offense in practice this week, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Specifically, Monken said Boston will work as the "boundary" receiver on the outside, allowing Jerry Jeudy to move around the formation more. By all accounts, Boston has been a standout at Browns camp and has earned the increased reps with the starters. His insertion with the ones is likely to hurt Cedric Tillman the most, as Tillman is a holdover from the previous coaching staff and has been mentioned in trade rumors this offseason. Boston appears to be a riser up fantasy draft boards headed into the preseason.

Waddle, who left this past Wednesday's practice with muscle tightness, didn't practice Monday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

That's not surprising given that coach Sean Payton said Thursday of Waddle that he thought the wideout would be back in "the next 4-to-5 days," per Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site. With that in mind, consider Waddle day-to-day ahead of Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons.

Mims (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

After leaving Friday's practice with an apparent injury, Mims didn't work Saturday, but the wideout is back in pads Monday and will continue to vie for slotting in a WR corps led by Courtland Sutton and Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed). Mims' primary competition this season for snaps/targets that don't go to the top duo are Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant.

Williams, per head coach Matt LaFleur, "had a good day" at Sunday's practice session, according to Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site.

Williams saw added opportunities with both Jayden Reed (ankle) and Matthew Golden (toe) sitting out, and he capitalized by hauling in nearly every pass thrown his direction. Williams didn't do a lot in his 2025 rookie season and remains behind both receivers already mentioned as well as Christian Watson in the pecking order, but he is the favorite to head into Week 1 with the fourth spot on the depth chart.

Pittman (leg) wasn't spotted at Monday's practice, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Per Saunders, Pittman left Saturday's practice with some sort of right leg injury. Meanwhile, with DK Metcalf also not spotted at the session, possibly for a rest day, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com relays that Germie Bernard is in line for added practice reps Monday.

Dell (knee) participated in "full-team drills" Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Dell practiced in pads last week for the first time since injuring his knee, and after initially being limited to individual drills he has advanced to team work. His status for Week 1 remains uncertain, but if he can avoid any setbacks there's reason to believe he'll be out there when the regular season gets underway.

Worthy (shoulder) will take part in Monday's practice, Pete Sweeney of The Kansas City Star reports.

Worthy missed over a week of practice time with a shoulder sprain, but he returned to the mix Monday. According to Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star, Worthy worked with quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the first-team offense as a limited participant while the Chiefs managed the wideout's workload coming back from the shoulder injury.
