Morgan showed some signs of progress with a limited practice on Friday, but he was ruled out after a DNP on Saturday. Morgan might have had a chance at some snaps on offense with Ja’Marr Chase sidelined because of a hip injury. As it stands, Mike Thomas should get most of the snaps behind Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd.

Felton is quietly in play to challenge Vikings No. 3 WR Jalen Nailor in training camp. Nailor (5'11/190) caught 28-of-42 targets for 414 yards and six touchdowns in his first season as a starter last year, with the latter category buoying his fantasy productivity. Felton (6'1/183), meanwhile, caught 96-of-143 targets for 1,119 yards and nine touchdowns while averaging 2.32 yards per route run in his final season. Fantasy managers should monitor Felton’s training camp reports this summer, as he could have a matchup-based WR5 role if everything falls into place.

Wolfe’s report at least confirms GM James Gladstone’s late-April comments on the matter. The Jaguars view Hunter as a wide receiver first and a cornerback second. In celebrating Hunter’s recent graduation from Colorado, Wolfe did frustratingly mix metaphors, saying, Hunter is “going to major on offense, at wide receiver first,” and that the Jaguars “hope that he can eventually double major” in both wide receiver and cornerback. What this means for his deployment is unknown.

Brooks now embarks on his quest to unseat No. 2 rusher, RB Zack Moss, who agreed to a restructured contract in April after his 2024 season was derailed by a Week 8 neck injury. Passing-down specialist, RB Samaje Perine, will remain a factor in his siloed role. Brooks is a name to know for dynasty and spring best ball drafts. Whether he can become re-draft-relevant remains to be seen.

Per NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe, Jeanty’s deal is fully guaranteed and worth more than $35.89 million. It comes with a $22.7 million signing bonus. Jeanty could compete for the league lead in touches as a rookie, putting him squarely in the RB1 ranks. The Raiders also signed third-round OG Caleb Rogers, sixth-round QB Cam Miller and seventh-round LB Cody Lindenberg.

The Panthers officially bring their X-wide receiver into the fold. McMillan should immediately compete for the team lead in targets and should produce fantasy-friendly results in year one. The Panthers also signed third-round OLB Princely Umanmielen, fourth-round S Lathan Ransom, fifth-round DT Cam Jackson, fifth-round TE Mitchell Evans and sixth-round WR Jimmy Horn Jr.. Dynasty managers should take note of Horn, who could eventually work his way into three-wide receiver sets.

ESPN’s Rich Cimini reports Membou’s deal is worth roughly $31.9 million. The Jets now boast a top-flight offensive line, keyed by its offensive tackle tandem with OT Olu Fashanu on the left and Membou on the right. The unit should provide Justin Fields with comfortable pockets in 2025. The Jets also signed third-round CB Azareye’h Thomas and fourth-round S Malachi Moore to four-year contracts.

Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Monangai. Roles are not guaranteed for Day 3 picks, but the former Rutgers Scarlet Knight could work his way into the rushing rotation. He stands a compact 5'9/211 and forced 139 missed tackles on 498 rushing attempts over the last two seasons.

NBC Sports’ ProFootballTalk reports the deal “is worth over $26.6 million and is fully guaranteed.” Loveland will vie for targets in a crowded Bears pass-catching corps, but his talent and offensive scheme could yield TE1 results in year one. The Bears also signed fourth-round LB Ruben Hyppolite, fifth-round CB Zah Frazier, sixth-round OL Luke Newman and seventh-round RB Kyle Monangai.

Winston spent time with the Rams, Saints, Browns and Seahawks before his Jets stint, logging live reps with the Saints in 2021. He has one target to his name, which he secured for a five-yard gain. On 10 career punt returns, he’s averaged 11.9 yards per return. The Jets also waived LB Jimmy Ciarlo and wide receiver Marcus Riley.

Davis’ release was announced yesterday, but the failed physical aspect is, unfortunately, news. Davis suffered a season-ending meniscus injury in Week 11 and later underwent surgery to correct the issue. The reason for the failed physical has not yet been released, but it stands to reason that it is connected to the knee issue. Davis will ideally progress through his rehab program in time to sign with a new team before training camp begins. This could complicate things, though.
