Overshown (lower body) participated at the Cowboys' training camp practice Monday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Overshown was dealing with a lower-body injury at practice last week, and he did not participate in the team's 17-7 preseason victory over the Seahawks on Saturday. The inside linebacker was handling first-team reps at practice Monday, and he now appears to be good to go ahead of the team's preseason matchup with the Cardinals on Saturday, if Dallas chooses to play its starters.

Roberts (knee) practiced in full pads Monday, according to PewterReport.com.

It was the first session for the safety since he injured his ACL during a joint practice with the Steelers in August 2025. Roberts signed with the Bucs as an undrafted free agent last year and was playing well during his first training camp before the injury. Now that he's back on the field, he'll look to make a case for a spot on the 53-man roster.

The Jaguars placed Hughes (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday.

Hughes may have sustained the injury during the Jaguars' 24-20 preseason win over the Saints on Saturday, when he played six snaps on special teams without showing up in the box score otherwise. The rookie seventh-rounder will now be forced to miss the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached with Jacksonville.

Spector signed a contract with the Jaguars on Monday.

The Jaguars are bringing Spector in to fortify their depth at linebacker after rookie seventh-rounder Parker Hughes (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve. Spector appeared in three regular-season games for the Bills in 2025 and played in each of Buffalo's two postseason games, totaling four tackles (two solo) across those five contests.

Dinkins (undisclosed) had a tryout with the 49ers on Saturday, Howard Balzer of USA Today reports.

Dinkins was waived by the Niners in July after suffering a non-football injury, but he now appears to be back to full health. The tight end signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in April, and he'll look to latch on with a squad in an attempt to make his NFL debut before the end of the preseason.

The Falcons hosted Smith for a tryout Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Smith worked out with the Browns on Thursday, and it looked like there was momentum building toward the veteran pass rusher reuniting with the team he played for in 2023 and for part of 2024. However, it looks like the Falcons have entered the mix, as Atlanta will be without Jalon Walker for the season due to a torn ACL and James Pearce for eight games due to a suspension. Smith announced his retirement from the NFL in October but elected to resume his career in the offseason.

Barham (groin) returned to practice Monday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Barham was able to make his return to the practice field after missing more than a week with a groin injury that he suffered at practice Aug. 5. The linebacker took some first-team reps, replacing both Dee Winters and DeMarvion Overshown (lower body) at different points. Barham appears to be on track to operate as a top reserve option at inside linebacker in his rookie campaign.

Miller (groin) was waived/injured by the Giants on Monday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

The running back sustained the groin injury in Saturday's preseason contest versus Minnesota, and New York coach John Harbaugh said there "might be a situation there" after the game, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. If Miller's injury is as serious as Harbaugh indicated, he may need to remain on injured reserve for the rest of the season. If he is able to play and clears waivers, he would need to reach an injury settlement with the Giants to have a chance to play in 2026.

The Falcons released Wilkerson on Monday, William McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Wilkerson caught on with the Falcons on Aug. 7 and played 14 snaps (13 on offense, one on special teams) during Atlanta's 24-7 loss to Denver in Friday's preseason game, when he caught one pass on three targets for five yards. He was on the practice squads of the Titans and Bills last year and last saw regular-season action in 2024 with the Raiders, when he caught two passes on three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown across three games. Assuming he clears waivers, Wilkerson will look to catch on with a team in need of pass-catching depth.

Trubisky was removed from Monday's training camp practice due to a biceps injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Head coach Robert Saleh told reporters after Monday's practice that he was optimistic about Trubisky's biceps injury. The veteran quarterback can be considered day-to-day for now, but he'll undergo further tests to determine the extent of his injury. An extended absence for Trubisky would mean more second-team reps for Will Levis.
