Bresee (knee) is feared to have suffered a torn ACL during Wednesday's practice, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The defensive lineman is undergoing extensive testing to confirm, but his ACL is likely torn, and he is likely done for the season. If the worst is true, John Ridgeway and Vernon Broughton (hip) will need to step up and prove they can produce for the Saints' defensive front.

Nabers (knee) looked good at practice Wednesday, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.

As Raanan points out, this was the first time reporters have seen Nabers run since suffering his knee injury, adding that the wideout's efforts Wednesday bode well for his Week 1 status. That's a notion echoed by Adam Schefter of ESPN, who noted after the practice that Nabers "looked like a wide receiver who is tracking to play opening night against the Dallas Cowboys." That said, it could be a while before Nabers is cleared to practice fully, and while the initial signs are positive, his Week 1 availability is no sure thing and hinges on him avoiding any setbacks as training camp and the preseason progress.

Mustapha (hamstring) won't practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Mustapha was the starting free safety for the 49ers in 2025 after returning from knee surgery, but he has been competing with Marques Sigle to keep the job. This setback will allow Sigle to show himself as a more consistent and productive option, so Mustapha will need to show out once he returns to the field.

Shaheed is preparing for a larger offensive role in his first full season with the Seahawks after getting a full offseason and training camp to build chemistry with Sam Darnold, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Shaheed remained a big-play and return-game weapon after joining Seattle midseason in 2025, but his receiving role was limited as he adjusted on the fly to a new team and offense. That should change now that he's had an offseason to build familiarity with new OC Brian Fleury and improve his timing with with Darnold, giving him a clearer path to downfield targets alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Shaheed's week-to-week fantasy value may remain volatile, but he will boast a higher ceiling if Seattle follows through on finding more ways to get him the ball.

Ward said Wednesday that he feels like a better quarterback entering Year 2, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll emphasized Ward's fuller understanding of the game from the perspective of the offensive line and receivers, lending credence to the 2025 first-rounder's increased confidence. Ward started all 17 games as a rookie and showed late-season improvement, then returned healthy for OTAs after a right shoulder injury in the 2025 finale. His first training-camp practice offered another encouraging sign, as he completed 11 of 16 passes with two touchdowns, per Wyatt. Ward's fantasy appeal is still tied to the overall growth of Tennessee's offense, as well as his chemistry with new top wideouts Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson, but signals have been positive ahead of the 2026 regular season.

Coach Kellen Moore said Wednesday that Tipton is still recovering from offseason tibia surgery, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

It was initially believed Tipton was still recovering from the groin injury that landed him on injured reserve ahead of last season's Week 18 regular-season finale, but he evidently required surgery on his tibia and is working his way back from that procedure. Tipton has 25 catches for 175 scoreless yards on 43 targets across 25 career regular-season contests and is competing for his place in the Saints' wideout pecking order.

Jeudy (hamstring) participated in Wednesday's practice, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Jeudy dealt with a hamstring issue during the spring, but he was out there as a full participant on the first day of training camp. The 27-year-old is coming off a disappointing 2025 campaign that saw him catch just 50 of 106 targets for 602 yards and two touchdowns across 17 regular-season games after he went for a 90-1,229-4 receiving line in the 2024 regular season. Facing stiffer competition for targets in the form of rookies KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston while also dealing with quarterback issues, Jeudy is a wild-card fantasy bet headed into this season.

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.

Miller (knee) is doing full-team drills at Wednesday's practice, Jeff Nowak of Audacy Sports reports.

Miller sustained a torn ACL in Week 7 last season but is 100 percent healthy to begin camp and is competing with Devin Neal for the RB3 role behind Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara. Miller carried the ball 47 times for 193 yards (4.1 YPC) and one touchdown across seven regular-season appearances in 2025.

Neal (undisclosed) is practicing at the start of training camp this week, Jeff Nowak of Audacy Sports reports.

Neal dealt with an undisclosed issue during the spring but is past the injury and working alongside Kendre Miller with the Saints' second-team offense. The two are competing for roles behind Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara in the New Orleans backfield.
