Kansas City will explore trade options for Morris, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

Morris has spent his entire three-year career with the team but is looking for an exit with no guaranteed starting spot in K.C. The 25-year-old landed on the injured reserve last December with a knee injury but is healthy again and participated in OTAs.

Charbonnet, who underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL in mid-February, was spotted doing what Brendon Nelson of SI.com describes as some light on-field work during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp session.

Per Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune, while Charbonnet's teammates warmed up on the main field Tuesday, the running back did about 15 minutes of high-knee hurdler steps while dressed in sweats and flat running shoes, as well as lateral movement and other low-impact drills. Though his presence on the field in any capacity is encouraging, given the typical eight-to-12 month recovery period for his surgery, it remains to be seen when Charbonnet will be cleared for full participation. He's on track to miss time at the beginning of the regular season, paving the way for 2026 first-round pick Jadarian Price, as well as George Holani and Emanuel Wilson, to handle Seattle's backfield duties.

Brown (ankle) participated in Houston's minicamp practice Tuesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Brown has recovered from the ankle injury that forced him to miss the Texans' AFC divisional-round loss to the Patriots back in January. The 33-year-old was working with the first-team offense Tuesday, but he's expected to serve as the backup right tackle behind Braden Smith during the regular season.

The Jaguars signed Colon (wrist) on Thursday.

Colon spent last season with the Lions before being placed on injured reserve in January due to a wrist issue. The 28-year-old is now healthy and will look to earn a spot on Jacksonville's 53-man roster.

The Colts placed Lowery (undisclosed) on the reserve/retired list Tuesday.

Lowery's NFL career has come to an end after just one season. The 23-year-old spent time with both the Ravens and Colts and amassed five tackles (one solo) across three games while playing on both defense and special teams.

The Rams signed Fox on Tuesday.

Fox has spent the last four seasons with the Giants but is now headed to Los Angeles. The 28-year-old has totaled 45 tackles (27 solo), including 2.0 sacks, during his career and will look to earn a depth role on the Rams' 53-man roster.

Hennessy underwent neck surgery, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Hennessy is expected to start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, and there's no timeline for his return. The 28-year-old had signed with the Cowboys back in March and is in line to serve as the team's backup center once healthy.

Bitonio announced his retirement from the NFL on Tuesday.

Bitonio's NFL career has come to an end after 12 seasons, all of which were spent with the Browns. With Bitonio no longer on the team, Zion Johnson will likely take over as Cleveland's starting left guard.

Coach Shane Steichen acknowledged Tuesday that Pierce, who is bouncing back from an offseason ankle procedure, isn't a lock to be ready for the start of training camp, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

With regard to the wideout's training camp availability, Steichen noted that it could be "a couple weeks in" before Pierce is ready to practice. That said, there's nothing to suggest his Week 1 status will be affected, and the 26-year-old will reprise a key role in Indy's offense after landing a four-year, $116 million deal to remain with the team, on the heels of a 2025 campaign in which he recorded a 47-1,003-6 line on 84 targets in 15 regular-season games.

Gonzalez reported to New England's mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

Gonzalez is back with the team after skipping most of the voluntary offseason program while holding out for a contract extension. The Patriots picked up the 23-year-old's fifth-year option in April, but Gonzalez continues to negotiate a long-term extension with the team.
