Burks (undisclosed) returned to rookie minicamp practice Saturday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Burks saw his reps somewhat limited, but the 2022 first-round pick was still running routes and working with fellow rookie, quarterback Malik Willis. The Arkansas product is expectedly to immediately fill the void left by the departed A.J. Brown, who was traded to the Eagles on draft day.

Pierce (undisclosed) is participating in Saturday's rookie minicamp practice, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

The Colts didn't specify what caused Pierce to leave Friday's practice early, so we're left assuming the 2022 second-round pick was dealing with a case of dehydration, which was hinted at by coach Frank Reich. The Cincinnati product is expected to compete for a starting WR spot opposite Michael Pittman.

The Raiders traded Edwards and a 2023 seventh-round pick to the Falcons on Friday in exchange for Atlanta's 2023 fifth-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The Falcons continue to add to their pass-catching corps with the addition of another big-bodied wideout. Edwards was faced an uphill battle for target volume in Las Vegas with the acquisition of Davante Adams, but the 6-foot-3 wide receiver has a chance to carve out a solid role in Atlanta. The Falcons overhauled the wideout group this offseason in the wake of Calvin Ridley's suspension, led by the selection of Drake London in the first round; however, behind the rookie and phenom tight end Kyle Pitts, the Falcons will likely have a healthy competition for targets leading up to and during the 2022 campaign.

Burks left Friday's rookie minicamp practice early with an undisclosed injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said after practice that he deferred to trainer Todd Toriscelli on the decision to shut the rookie down, and added, "if [Burks] is out there tomorrow, we'll coach him up." It doesn't sound like the first-round pick is dealing with anything serious, but the team will likely be extremely cautious moving forward.

Pierce (undisclosed) left Friday's rookie minicamp practice early, but Colts head coach Frank Reich said the concern level is low, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

Reich speculated that Pierce may have been dealing with dehydration, but he didn't elaborate on the issue. The Colts will likely be extremely cautious with their second-round pick, who could carve out a sizable role across from Michael Pittman during his rookie campaign.

London (ankle) said he fully participated in Friday's rookie minicamp practice with no restrictions, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

London suffered a broken ankle in October last year, which sidelined him for the remainder of his final campaign at USC. The 6-foot-4 wideout was a limited participant during his pro day, but there wasn't much doubt that he'd be good to go for his first NFL season. Regardless, it's still an encouraging sign to see the rookie available and participating during minicamp.

Jeudy, who appeared in Arapahoe County (Colorado) court Friday morning, was released on a $1,500 personal recognizance bond, Jeff Legwold of ESPN reports.

Per NFL.com, Jeudy was arrested Thursday on second-degree criminal tampering charges with a domestic violence enhancer, but he did not submit a plea and is next scheduled to appear in court May 31. In a statement Thursday, the Broncos noted they "are aware of the matter involving Jerry Jeudy and are in the process of gathering more information."

Jeudy is scheduled for a hearing at 8:30 a.m. MT on Friday following his arrest Thursday in Arapahoe County (Colorado) on suspicion of criminal tampering with a domestic violence enhancer, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

According to Arapahoe County Sheriff Tyler Brown, "there was no physical contact" between Jeudy and the woman in question, and he has yet to be formally charged in the ongoing investigation, per Kieran Nicholson and Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post. Prior to Brown's statement, the Broncos posted one of their own, stating the team is "aware of the matter involving Jerry Jeudy and are in the process of gathering more information," according to Mike Klis of 9News Denver. Friday's appearance before a judge could shed more light on Jeudy's current legal situation.

Following his arrest Thursday afternoon, Jeudy is being held at the Arapahoe County (Colorado) jail on charges of second-degree criminal tampering with a domestic violence enhancer, a misdemeanor, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.

Per Mike Klis of 9News Denver, the Broncos noted in a statement that they "are aware of the matter involving Jerry Jeudy and are in the process of gathering more information." The 23-year-old wideout had been a regular attendee in the team's offseason program prior to Thursday.

Chark said he has taken part in early offseason workouts with no real physical limitations, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports. "[The coaching staff] is always there to let me know like, if it's bothering me I don't have to push it as hard or things like that, cause they want me to be where I'm at my peak when the season starts. But no, I do everything that everybody else does," Chark recently said.

Chark missed most of the 2021 campaign with a fractured ankle, but he has seemingly had a productive offseason that somewhat started with joining Jared Goff for throwing sessions in California. Since then, the receiver has been getting acclimated in Detroit and has remained setback-free while doing so. If the 25-year-old can stay that way through the end of the summer, Chark should easily open the season as the Lions' No. 1 perimeter receiver while Jameson Williams (knee) works his way back from an ACL injury.
