Ricky Seals-Jones TE | IND
Cardinals' Ricky Seals-Jones: Records one catch
Seals-Jones corralled his only target for six yards in Saturday's 24-17 preseason win versus the Chargers.
Seals-Jones didn't get the start at tight end -- that honor went to Gabe Holmes -- but his hookup with Sam Bradford marked the veteran quarterback's sole pass attempt of the game. The preceding bodes well for Seals-Jones serving as the top pass-catching TE in Arizona in 2018, especially with Jermaine Gresham still in recovery mode from an Achilles tear in Week 17 of last season. On the legal front, though, Seals-Jones awaits the resolution of a July arrest in Scottsdale, Ariz., which may eventually result in a suspension from the NFL.

Manasseh Garner TE | WAS
Redskins' Manasseh Garner: Planted on IR
Garner (knee) has been placed on injured reserve, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
This transaction was a mere formality since Garner has already been lost for the season due to a torn ACL he sustained in last week's preseason opener.

Austin Traylor TE | DET
Broncos' Austin Traylor: Nursing shoulder injury
Traylor sustained a shoulder injury during Saturday's preseason opener against the Vikings, Zac Stevens of BSNDenver.com reports.
It isn't clear when or how Traylor suffered the injury, nor is it certain how severe his situation is. Regardless, his potential absence from practice this week is yet another hit to a tight end corps already without Jeff Heuerman (knee) and Troy Fumagalli (sports hernia) for the time being, which allows Jake Butt to operate as the unquestioned No. 1 tight end until further notice.

Dallas Goedert TE | PHI
Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Tending to elbow injury
Goedert is dealing with a minor elbow injury, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
Goedert left Saturday's practice with a previously unspecified arm injury, which he termed a "bump-and-bruise-type thing." His return to practice is likely in the day-to-day range as the Eagles prepare for their second preseason contest Thursday at New England. In his first pro outing Thursday against the Steelers, he hooked up with reserve quarterback Nate Sudfeld for four catches (on five targets) for 66 yards and a touchdown. Thus, Goedert's introduction as the Trey Burton replacement behind Zach Ertz has for the most part got off to a rousing start.

Je'Ron Hamm TE | IND
Je'Ron Hamm: Waived by Seahawks
Hamm was waived by the Seahawks on Sunday Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Sunday marks the second time in the last three weeks that the Seahawks have waived Hamm. His second stint with the team lasted only six days. He will hope to find his way onto another roster before training camp concludes.

Jimmy Graham TE | NO
Packers' Jimmy Graham: Returns to drills
Graham (knee) returned to practice Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Graham has been tending to a knee injury for a brief spell, missing out on his first chance to make an in-game impact as a Packer. His next chance to do so arrives Thursday against the Steelers, assuming he's cleared to play.

Dallas Goedert TE | PHI
Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Avoids major injury
Goedert is being held out of Sunday's practice with a seemingly minor injury to his right arm, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
There was speculation about a serious injury when Goedert left Saturday's practice, but it now seems he's merely day-to-day. While he didn't participate Sunday, the rookie second-round pick came out on the field to watch practice and was joking around with his teammates. Goedert caught four passes for 66 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's preseason opener against Pittsburgh, making a strong case that he's ready for the No. 2 tight end job. It's an important role in the Philadelphia offense, but not one that's likely to allow for a fantasy impact while Zach Ertz is healthy.

Troy Fumagalli TE | MIN
Broncos' Troy Fumagalli: Unlikely to play Saturday
Fumagalli (sports hernia) isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Vikings, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.
Fumagalli, who missed practice time this week, is having trouble bouncing back from the sports hernia surgery that he underwent this offseason. The rookie's next chance to make his professional debut will come Aug. 18 against the Bears. With No. 1 tight end Jeff Heuerman (knee) also sidelined Saturday, Jake Butt and Austin Traylor will likely get the bulk of the work with the first-team offense.

Gerald Everett TE | CHI
Rams' Gerald Everett: No practice Saturday
Everett (shoulder) is not practicing Saturday, Rich Hammond of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Everett, who's been diagnosed with a sprained shoulder, was seen Saturday with a sling supporting his left arm, making it seem as if the he isn't particularly close to practicing at this juncture. With Everett sidelined, Tyler Higbee will continue to serve as the Rams' unquestioned No. 1 tight end until further notice.
