  • Mitch Trubisky QB | TEN

    Titans' Mitchell Trubisky: Tweaks biceps in practice

    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.

  • Chiefs' Mansoor Delane: Takes contact in practice

    Delane (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Monday, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports.

    The first-round pick had not been able to practice yet in full pads during training camp due to a shoulder injury that he suffered in May during OTAs. Delane is projected to start on the outside for Kansas City as a rookie.

  • Kadarius Calloway: Let go with injury designation

    The Buccaneers waived/injured Calloway (undisclosed) on Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Calloway may have picked up an injury during the Buccaneers' 24-16 preseason win over the Jets on Friday, when he turned eight carries into 13 yards and returned two kickoffs for 39 yards. If he clears waivers, then Calloway would revert to injured reserve and be forced to miss the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached with Tampa Bay.

  • 49ers' Christian McCaffrey: Tightness not considered serious issue

    McCaffrey is dealing with "tightness," but it doesn't seem to be an issue to worry about, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    For the sake of clarity, Rapoport emphasized that McCaffrey hasn't been missing practice due to a phantom injury or a contract hold-in. Rapoport suggested that the star running back is dealing with "actual tightness" as opposed to sitting out as a means of forcing contract negotiations, and the report also notes that McCaffrey "should be fine." At this point, fantasy managers can probably count on the workhorse tailback being available for Week 1 of the regular season, though it certainly bears monitoring his practice status as the preseason rolls on.

  • Xavier Watts SAF | ATL

    Falcons' Xavier Watts: Back at practice

    Watts (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

    The safety missed practice last week and Atlanta's preseason opener against Denver on Friday. His undisclosed issue, however, appears to be minor, and he should be able to resume his starting safety role now that he's back. Watts finished last season with 96 tackles (59 solo) and 11 pass breakups, including five interceptions.

  • Falcons' Jessie Bates: Returns to practice

    Bates (back) returned to practice Monday, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

    The safety had to sit out of two straight practice sessions and Atlanta's preseason opener against Denver last week with the back issue. Now that he's participating in individual drills again, he should be able to resume full 11-on-11 sessions soon as well. Bates recorded 98 tackles (57 solo), six pass breakups, including three interceptions, and a forced fumble for Atlanta a year ago.

  • Bears' Marcus Davenport: Heading to Windy City

    The Bears signed Davenport to a contract Monday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

    Davenport will reunite with Dennis Allen, with the duo having previously worked together in New Orleans. Davenport appeared in only eight regular-season games for the Lions in 2025 due to a shoulder injury, finishing with 14 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks. The 2018 first-rounder gives the Bears rotational depth at defensive end behind projected starters Dayo Odeyingbo and Montez Sweat.

  • Von Miller OLB | DAL

    Cowboys' Von Miller: Expected to be ramped up for Week 1

    Miller is not expected to practice with the Cowboys this week, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Miller signed with Dallas on Sunday after posting 26 total tackles (16 solo), including 9.0 sacks, over a career-high 17 regular season contests with the Commanders in 2025. The team is expected to slowly ramp up the linebacker's participation at practice, and the goal is to have Miller ready to go for Week 1 on the road against the Giants on Sept. 13.

  • Buccaneers' Jake Browning: Back at practice

    Browning (back) practiced Monday after missing Friday's preseason game against the Jets, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    The quarterback strained his back Wednesday during a joint practice with the Jets and then had to sit out of the preseason opener. Now that he has returned, Browning should slide back into his spot as Baker Mayfield's primary backup. The fourth-year pro is in his first year with the Bucs after spending his first three seasons with Cincinnati.

  • Khalil Herbert: Let go by San Francisco

    The 49ers released Herbert on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Herbert spent most of the offseason on the open market before signing with the 49ers in early August due to the team's multiple injuries in the backfield. He played 31 snaps (24 on offense, seven on special teams) during the 49ers' 19-13 preseason loss to the Titans on Thursday, when he turned six carries into 18 yards and caught both of his targets for 35 yards while adding a tackle on a kickoff. Herbert will once again be a free agent and look to catch on with a team in need of backfield depth.
