Coach Sean McDermott said Kroft (foot) is "moving in the right direction," Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
There's still no timetable for Kroft's return from a broken foot, but there's growing optimism he can avoid a stint on the regular-season PUP list. If he remains on the PUP list for Week 1, the tight end would have to sit out the season's first six weeks.
