Hall (groin) was in attendance for Tuesday's practice, though he wasn't in uniform and was observing the session off to the side, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Hall exited Monday's session early after sustaining a right groin strain, an injury that the Jets believe to be a minor concern that won't threaten his availability for the team's Week 1 game against the Titans. While Hall is probably at least a week away from mixing back into drills, his presence at practice seemingly supports the notion that he's not in line for a long-term absence. With Isaiah Davis also having been sidelined for the past week due to a minor knee injury, Braelon Allen should be in line for the bulk of the reps with the Jets' first-team offense in practice until Hall makes his return to the field.

Horton didn't practice Monday, with coach Mike Macdonald saying the wideout is "working through some things" at the moment, Gregg Bell of the News Tribune reports.

Horton was a full participant during the first week of training camp, after having a metal rod put in his lower leg in February to stabilize the shin fracture that ended his rookie season. He didn't play in Seattle's preseason opener, however, and he's now absent from practice as the team begins preparing for its second exhibition. It's unclear if Horton's current problem is related to the offseason surgery.

McMillan (knee) returned to practice Tuesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

It's unclear if he'll be a full participant, but McMillan is at least suiting up and taking part. He's been dealing with a knee injury for the past couple weeks, missing Tampa Bay's preseason opener against the Jets. McMillan should have plenty of time to get right for Week 1.

Bell (knee) will increase his practice involvement Tuesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Activated from the NFI list a day earlier, Bell is already increasing his workload but will continue to wear a non-contact jersey for the time being. While he hasn't been ruled out for Week 1, the Dolphins aren't likely to rush the 2026 third-round pick into action after he had ACL repair surgery in December. Caleb Douglas and Malik Washington dominated first-team WR snaps in Miami's preseason opener against Washington last week.

Douglas (lower body) returned to practice Tuesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

The rookie third-round pick apparently is fine after making an early exit from Monday's practice. He was the subject of fantasy attention before that, catching one of two targets for 28 yards while playing with Miami's starters in a 20-7 preseason loss to Washington on Friday. Douglas made a spectacular, one-handed grab, though only after poor footwork cost him a sideline catch earlier on the drive. He has a real shot to start in Week 1 given the lack of established talent on the Dolphins' WR depth chart.

The Falcons signed Smith to a one-year contract Tuesday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

With injuries and legal problems thinning out their group of edge rushers, the Falcons have bolstered the position group with the addition of Smith, who will turn 34 shortly before Week 1. He announced his retirement last October after playing five games for Philadelphia, just one year removed from a 9.0-sack season in 2024. Smith may not solve Atlanta's pass-rush problems, but he probably represents an upgrade over some of the other edge rushers that would be taking the snaps if he weren't around.

Otton isn't practicing Tuesday due to an undisclosed injury, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

The Buccaneers haven't revealed the nature of Otton's injury nor its severity, but the fifth-year tight end appears unlikely to be available for Saturday's preseason game versus Kansas City. When healthy, Otton projects to take on a heavy snap share on a weekly basis, but he isn't expected to be much more than a third or fourth option in the passing game for quarterback Baker Mayfield and has never been a major red-zone target (11 touchdowns in 63 career regular-season games).

Coleman was spotted with a walking boot on his right foot Tuesday after suffering an injury during Saturday's preseason win over Carolina, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.

Coleman started the preseason game and caught a touchdown pass from Josh Allen on the second drive, only to then stay in with the backups and almost immediately suffer an injury. It's unclear at this point if Coleman is in serious danger of missing Week 1. He looked to be on track for the No. 3 receiver job behind DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir, but an extended absence could open the door for Joshua Palmer or fourth-round rookie Skyler Bell (lower body) to claim that job instead.

The Jaguars announced that Allen sustained a soft-tissue injury Monday that will keep him out for the remainder of training camp, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

The injury presumably puts Allen's status in doubt for the remaining two games of the preseason. Though Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez are expected to carry the load on the ground for the Jaguars during the upcoming season, Allen projects to hold an important role as the preferred back on passing downs. Ameer Abdullah could serve as a change-of-pace option instead if Allen's absence extends into the regular season.

Moore (lower body) is practicing Tuesday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Moore came up gimpy after a big play in Saturday's 29-14 win over Carolina, finishing with three catches for 61 yards over the course of two drives. The Bills scored a TD one snap after Moore's injury and then pulled most of their starters, so he didn't really have a chance to rejoin the game. A quick return to practice confirms that it's a minor injury and that he's already feeling better.
