Kincaid remains sidelined, as expected, after being labeled “week-to-week” on Monday. The Bills’ top receiving tight end is highly unlikely to play this weekend, expectedly elevating veteran TE Dawson Knox to the starting role. Youngster, TE Jackson Hawes, should be monitored though. Hawes has already established himself as a talented blocker and is averaging 2.17 yards per route run, albeit on a very small sample.

Arnold will post bond and appears set to join the Lions when training camp opens next month. The 23-year-old corner was arrested last week for his connection to a robbery and kidnapping in Tampa that took place in February, which he denies having any involvement with. The court, which did find probable cause for the charges against Arnold, also declined to impose an ankle bracelet on him as a condition of his release. It’s possible Arnold lands on the Commissioner’s Exempt List while he awaits trial, but the league will likely reserve any disciplinary action until after his case is settled in court.

Henderson says the expectation is that Price will split work with incumbent George Holani and free agent signee Emanuel Wilson while the team waits for Zach Charbonnet (Achilles) to make his return. We’ll see if a clear-cut RB1 emerges for the Seahawks during training camp, but this is shaping up to be a messy backfield during the early part of the season based on where things stand right now. One concern about Price entering the draft was his ability to contribute in the passing game, but Henderson notes that he “looked plenty capable as a pass catcher in the spring,” so it’s possible he could see more work than we initially anticipated. Price is the only running back with an ADP of note in early fantasy drafts, while both Holani and Wilson are going un-drafted more often than not. With Holani and Wilson being virtually free in drafts, their ADP presents a nice buying opportunity for fantasy managers looking for late-round sleepers that could make an early impact this season.

The Jets traded up and used the No. 30 overall pick in this year’s draft to select Cooper, but the hype surrounding Adonai Mitchell as the team’s No. 2 receiver has been the biggest piece of offseason news in what is a completely revamped passing game. That said, Cimini praised Cooper for both his route running and physicality this spring while noting that the former Indiana product “should be even better when the pads go on in training camp.” Cooper excelled at generating yards after the catch last season with the Hoosiers, forcing 27 missed tackles on 69 receptions, good for an impressive 39.1 percent missed tackles forced rate. He played 77 percent of his snaps from the slot last season, and seems like the early favorite to lead the Jets in slot snaps this season with Garrett Wilson and Mitchell serving as the primary options on the outside.

Oyefusi says the plays to Concepcion varied from “deep shots to screens to run plays,” as the versatile receiver has seemingly been all over the place early this offseason. It was reported earlier this month that head coach Todd Monken planned to design touches for Concepcion, who many believed to be one of the best overall playmakers in this year’s draft. It still remains to be seen how he will be deployed in his rookie season, but Concepcion could have a chance to be the most productive receiver in the Browns’ passing game this season, given his ability to operate in the short areas of the field and in the quick passing game. He is a player who will be worth a close watch in training camp, as any reports of significant usage could hint at a quick return in value for fantasy managers who drafted him.

This is more of an update than breaking news. It was reported in May that Sadiq underwent minor hernia surgery and was expected to be ready by camp, and it doesn’t appear anything has changed a month later. The rookie did not participate in OTAs and minicamp and will be behind entering camp, per Jets OC Frank Reich, but they have a plan to get him up to speed once he returns. The Jets used the No. 16 overall pick on Sadiq in this year’s draft, hoping his elite athleticism and 4.39 speed can add another element to an offense that finished 29th in scoring last season. How the Jets plan to use Sadiq in his rookie season will determine his fantasy outlook, but he could turn into a solid late-round value if he factors into the passing game early on.

The former 2014 undrafted free agent spent time with the Steelers, Falcons, Cardinals, Giants, 49ers and Bengals before joining the Cowboys in 2018. Per NBC Sports’ Pro Football Talk, Goodwin appeared in 108 games with the Cowboys, playing 2,211 snaps on special teams, 62 on defense and one on offense. He totaled 94 tackles, two passes defensed and two forced fumbles over the course of his career.

The Patriots’ Gillette Stadium served as a host site for the 2026 FIFA World Cup games. Scotland’s Tartan Army fans reportedly “brought spirit” to the point that it caught Kraft’s attention, prompting the Patriots’ owner to tell NFL commissioner Roger Goodell that he would like his team to play a game in Scotland someday. Reiss also notes that the “economic stimulus from record beer sales at some local bars probably made an impression on Kraft.” Reiss’ sources say that this isn’t yet an “active” situation, and instead falls in the “conversation” phase between league and owner, at this time. The NFL intends to continue its international expansion, and NFL teams that seek out international fan bases will only hurry that process along.

Reiss believes Gonzalez “might have been sending a message to the team this spring” by sitting out the majority of the voluntary program and participating only in “the lower-speed/lower-tempo parts of mandatory minicamp.” We think Reiss is probably onto something here. Gonzalez turned 24 today and has already earned one second-team All-Pro nod and Pro Bowl honors, and is under team control for two more years after his fifth-year option was picked up this offseason. It’s in Gonzalez’s best interests to do whatever he can to get an extension now, so a hold-in would not be a surprising result.

Per Fowler, Seahawks tight ends are “going to be moving all around” the formation this season. Whether Darnold targets TEs AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo more often remains to be seen, but we can take this as a net positive for the offense overall. Shifts and motion give the defense an extra item to monitor. Motion added 0.25 yards per play to the NFL average last year. The 49ers averaged the fourth-highest shifts and motion rate (74.3 percent) in the 2025 regular season, while Fleury served as their run game coordinator and tight ends coach. The Seahawks’ 67.4 percent rate ranked 12th. Fleury will call plays offensively for the first time in his career, and former OC Klint Kubiak will not be easy to replace. This is an encouraging report for the Seahawks’ fantasy-scoring prospects, though.

Shaheed reportedly had “major” performances throughout spring practices, hitting it off with QB Sam Darnold. Per Fowler, the Seahawks will continue to use WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba on PPR-friendly short and intermediate routes that helped him finish as the overall WR2 in total PPR scoring. But, rather than keeping Shaheed stuck in a field-stretching role, they plan to direct more short-to-intermediate stuff to Shaheed as well. Shaheed still has to go out and score more points this season, but this is the exact type of role change he needs to elevate above a frustratingly volatile fantasy profile.
