Dak Prescott QB | DAL
Cowboys' Dak Prescott: On field to open camp
Prescott (knee) is participating in Wednesday's training camp session, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Prescott isn't wearing a brace on his leg or showing any signs of still managing the knee soreness that caused him to be limited during Dallas' mandatory minicamp back in June. It had been reported upon his initial injury disclosure that Prescott was expected to be a full-go for camp, which appears to be the case. The 33-year-old veteran will spend camp working to improve his chemistry with top wideouts CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens in preparation for what's expected to be one of the league's top scoring offenses.

Stewart was carted off the field after sustaining a left leg injury in Wednesday's practice, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Titans' Mitchell Trubisky: Day-to-day with tightness
Trubisky is considered day-to-day due to general tightness, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
The veteran backup quarterback felt the tightness during the initial conditioning test to begin training camp. With Trubisky down for a couple days, Will Levis should get most of the reps with the second-team offense. The two are competing for the top backup job behind Cam Ward this summer.

Vita Vea DT | TB
Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Dealing with tweaked back
Vea suffered a tweaked back in Tuesday's condition test at training camp, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Vea is "holding in" at training camp after he requested a trade out of Tampa Bay earlier in the week. He's looking for a new contract as he heads into the final year of a four-year, $71 million extension that was signed in 2022. Vea started all 17 regular-season games in 2025 and recorded 34 tackles (16 solo), including 4.5 sacks. He's certainly on the downslope of his career and is looking to cash in one more time.

Xavier Legette WR | CAR
Panthers' Xavier Legette: In driver's seat for No. 3 role
Legette has better odds of winning Carolina's No. 3 receiver job after rookie Chris Brazzell suffered an LCL tear, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Brazzell, a third-round pick, is expected to miss the rest of the summer and at least the first few weeks of the regular season. Legette is left to compete with David Moore, John Metchie, Jimmy Horn and others for spots Nos. 3 to 6 on the depth chart. Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker are locked in as the top duo, looking like runaway favorites to rank first and second on the team in targets, though early camp hype suggests RB Jonathon Brooks might emerge as a third useful pass catcher.
