Vaki (leg) returned to practice Monday and participated in individual drills and walkthroughs, Benjamin Raven of MLive.com reports.

Vaki missed roughly one week of training camp activities due to a leg injury, but he's now returned to on-field work in a limited capacity. The 2024 fourth-round pick suited up for 16 regular-season games as a rookie but totaled just 51 yards on offense, though he also has the versatility to contribute at safety and on special teams, which boosts his odds of being able to secure a depth role.

Skattebo has turned heads in training camp, "doing a lot of his damage catching the ball out of the backfield," Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Raanan notes that Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary have gotten "almost all" of the first-team reps so far during camp but suggests that Skattebo eventually could get more work with the starting unit if he continues to play well. New York is still in the very early part of camp -- Monday's practice was the team's first in pads -- but Skattebo already has made an impression, including by catching a touchdown pass from fellow rookie Jaxson Dart in the right corner of the end zone to conclude practice Friday. Coach Brian Daboll has expressed praise for Skattebo, saying that the Arizona State product "runs hard" and sharing that he's "looking forward to watching him run." Tracy remains the Giants' projected No. 1 RB, but if Skattebo is able to use his superb pass-catching skills to contribute to the offense, he could carve out a role substantial enough to make him an intriguing fantasy asset.

The Jets placed Evans (undisclosed) on the reserve/retired list Monday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.

Evans signed a reserve/future contract with the Jets in January after joining the team's practice squad in mid-December, but the 24-year-old will hang up his cleats. The 2023 sixth-rounder last saw regular-season action during his rookie campaign with the Rams, when he logged nine carries for 19 yards in 10 games while mostly serving on special teams. Evans finished his three-year college career with Ole Miss in 2022, where he rushed for 936 yards and nine touchdowns on 144 carries while adding 12 catches for 119 yards and one touchdown across 11 games.

Patterson (undisclosed) is set to be released by the Steelers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN reports.

Pryor's report cited the source himself: Patterson, who posted on X that the Steelers had released "old washed up" Cordarrelle Patterson "on his day off." Pittsburgh can gain $2.8 million in cap space with the move, per Pryor. During the 2024 regular season with the Steelers, Patterson recorded 135 rushing yards, 80 receiving yards and a score and 240 kickoff-return yards.

Taua signed with the Browns on Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The 5-foot-9, 215-pound running back last played college football in 2022 with Nevada, took part in a rookie minicamp with the Eagles the following spring and then appeared in 10 USFL/UFL games between 2023 and 2025 as a member of the Michigan Panthers, with whom he scored a league-high six touchdowns during the '25 campaign. Taua ran for 911 yards and 11 touchdowns in his final collegiate season but went undrafted. In Cleveland, he'll have to work his way up a depth chart that includes two 2025 draft picks, second-rounder Quinshon Judkins and fourth-rounder Dylan Sampson, and a fourth-year pro with plenty of NFL starting experience in Jerome Ford. However, Judkins' ongoing absence from camp due to a contractual issue that may have been complicated by recent legal trouble could conceivably up Taua's odds of having more of a chance to make a case for a roster spot during camp practices and preseason games.

The Dolphins waived Noel on Monday.

Noel signed with the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in May, but he will no longer be with the team for training camp. He started in 11 games in his final collegiate season in Missouri and recorded 163 carries for 818 yards and three touchdowns. Assuming he clears waivers, Noel will look to join a team looking for backfield depth.

Broncos coach Sean Payton said Monday that Dobbins has made a swift transition into Denver's offense, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Payton noted the importance of Dobbins signing in June, rather than right on the eve of training camp. He had six weeks to get up to speed before camp and reportedly took most of the first-team reps during the first few practices (per Jon Heath of Broncos Wire). Dobbins and second-round pick RJ Harvey now figure to compete for the lead role, possibly battling into the season, while the likes of Audric Estime, Jaleel McLaughlin, Tyler Badie and Blake Watson are fighting to hang on to roster spots. Dobbins' experience and passing-down skills could keep him in a significant role even if Harvey impresses early on.

The Seahawks placed McIntosh (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

McIntosh was trying to defend his role from last year as the team's No. 3 running back, but his season will end before it started due to an ACL tear in the opening days of training camp. Damien Martinez and George Holani are now the favorites for the No. 3 job behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet.

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Ford (undisclosed) is returning to practice in a "limited capacity" this week, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Ford missed the first handful of practices with an injury that still hasn't been specified. Fellow running back Quinshon Judkins remains unsigned amid legal problems, leaving fourth-round pick Dylan Sampson and veteran Pierre Strong as the immediate competition for first-team snaps. Ford figures to jump in atop the depth chart soon enough.

Lloyd limped off the field at practice Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Per Demovsky, Lloyd stayed out on the field but didn't continue to practice, instead watching from behind the huddle without a helmet. Injuries and appendicitis limited him to one appearance during his rookie season, while Emanuel Wilson took 103 carries for 502 yards and four TDs in the regular season as Green Bay's No. 2 RB. Assuming Monday's injury isn't serious, Lloyd is set to compete with Wilson, Chris Brooks and others for backup roles behind returning workhorse Josh Jacobs.
