The Ravens have shown zero interest in bringing Washington back even though he set a career high with 34 catches last season. He could help someone as a special teams asset and backup receiver.

He was limited to individual work, but it’s a good sign that Evans is back on the field at all. It does seem like his quad injury isn’t much to worry about and that he can be drafted with that in mind.

Solak believes he is “not sure he’s the same athlete he was before,” but running quarterback is a way that Watson could find some fantasy usefulness in deeper leagues while he’s starting. We’ll believe it when we see it and there’s not a locked in job here for Watson, but perhaps this is a way to make him a bye week starter in superflex leagues.

Not a glowing review. Combine Bernard’s struggles with the idea that the Steelers might remain run-heavy this year (also espoused by Solak) and it feels like Bernard might just be a deep-league bench option this year. It should be noted that the overwhelming majority of the drumbeat about Bernard this offseason has been positive, so perhaps this was just an off-day.

Ah, that doesn’t sound ominous at all. Garrett told McVay he’s at “85 percent” at the moment. Garrett had been practicing before this, so perhaps this winds up being nothing and they’re merely holding him out to be safe. But knee swelling does not tend to lead anywhere good.

There’s been a strain of thought that Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers would go back to slinging it like it is 2016 again, but Solak left Steelers training camp believing things would mostly stay as they were last year. That’s good news for Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle, though neither of them profile as an easy-to-trust option while they split time.

It makes some sense given how the offseason played out, as the Raiders never really settled on a potential third-down back until they signed Dare Ogunbowale once training camp started. Jeanty playing all three downs would be a major feather in his cap from a fantasy perspective should it come to pass. Jeanty caught 55 passes for 346 yards and five scores in 2026, but given the quality of receiver talent on this roster, he could do better in his second season.

Framing it as “a chance” in the most optimistic time of the year tells us it’s far from a certainty. Emmanwori underwent surgery in late July. The second-year safety did pass his physical, taking him off the active/PUP list today.

Sure, Kev. McCarthy lost the starting competition and is entering the third year of his four-year rookie contract. If he’s going to have a major future as a quarterback in the league, he almost certainly needed to beat out Murray for the starting role or (still in play) get traded somewhere where he can play this year. We’ll see what happens, but it wouldn’t be surprising if McCarthy was traded. It also wouldn’t be surprising if McCarthy requested a trade.

It’s a sneaky way that Tracy could cut into Cam Skattebo’s workload. Duggan went as far as to say it “figures to be a time share, with Skattebo the 1-A and Tracy the 1-B,” and while we wouldn’t go quite that far with Skattebo being the lead back in most other drills and being anointed the starter for most of camp, it does cut Skattebo’s value just a smidge.

Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said “you start putting days and (a) timetable on it, it’s just...a young guy like that, let’s just go attack the heck out of it until he can come back and practice again.” The News Tribune’s Gregg Bell believes it “doesn’t sound like Price is playing” in Seattle’s first preseason game on Saturday. This injury has morphed from “leg soreness” to “upper body soreness.” We don’t have any real concerns about Price’s injury holding him out long-term, but it’s possible the missed reps keep him from a bigger workload when the regular season arrives.
