Jennings (hamstring) remains sidelined during the first week of OTAs, Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Jennings was also sidelined for rookie minicamp earlier this month. While it isn't clear when he's expected to be healthy enough to compete, the fourth-round rookie has less competition for snaps in 2019 than he seemingly did upon being drafted, as Doug Baldwin (knee/ankle/shoulder) has since opted for retirement. When healthy, Jennings will compete with D.K. Metcalf, Jaron Brown and David Moore, among others, for slotting on the depth chart underneath entrenched No. 1 option Tyler Lockett.

Adams was held out of Tuesday's practice with an undisclosed injury, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports.

Adams is present in Green Bay but is being held out for reasons coach Matt LaFleur deemed as "precautionary." The wide receiver could be back in the fold within the next few weeks of OTAs or perhaps for mandatory minicamp in June. In any case, Adams' momentary absence creates an opportunity for the Packers to let some of their younger wideouts distinguish themselves during an offseason in which Green Bay opted against pursuing a more high-profile No. 2 receiver.

Jones (knee) isn't participating in individual or team drills at the start of OTAs, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

Jones said in March that he expected to be ready for the offseason program, but it's now clear Detroit has other plans for the 28-year-old receiver. With two more weeks of OTAs plus June's mandatory minicamp still to come, there's plenty of time for Jones to work his way back into action before training camp kicks off in late July. There's also little incentive for Jones to put himself out there any sooner than necessary, as he's locked into a starting job opposite Kenny Golladay (chest).

Treadwell was working with the second-team offense Wednesday during OTAs, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Even with Stefon Diggs skipping voluntary workouts, less-proven commodities in Chad Beebe and Jordan Taylor have been working ahead of Treadwell, who's entering the final season of his rookie contract. There's still time for Treadwell to work his way back up the depth chart, but the Vikings have already seen plenty of what the 2016 first-round pick has to offer at this point, and the returns haven't been encouraging.

Diggs wasn't in attendance Wednesday for the Vikings' OTAs, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Diggs was the only healthy Vikings player not present and it's believed that he missed most, if not all, of the offseason program. The 25-year-old will enter the first season of the five-year, $72 million contract extension he inked last summer. The Vikings will open their mandatory minicamp June 11.

Sills was limited during Tuesday's OTA session due to a hamstring issue, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

The term "limited" isn't much of a concern this far ahead of the season, though as an undrafted free agent, Sills can't afford much missed time, so we'll see how he does as OTAs continue this week. Even though he's a UDFA, Sills has a legit shot to make the team following two big final seasons at West Virginia. If the name looks familiar, Sills was a 13-year-old commit to USC and Lane Kiffin several years ago before a significant hand injury forced him into another position. Sills is difficult to cover and, as a former high-level quarterback, brings extra intangibles to the offense. That all said, he'll have to turn some heads this summer to make the team.

Ubosi was waived by the Jets on Tuesday.

Ubosi was claimed off waivers just one week ago by New York. The Jets are releasing him to create a roster spot for the signing of wideout Deonte Thompson.

Beasley was not participating in OTAs on Tuesday after undergoing core muscle surgery a few weeks ago, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

It's unclear exactly what led to the injury and ultimately surgery for Beasley, and it is also unknown how long the wideout will remain on the sidelines. It's all speculation at this point, so consider Beasley day-to-day until the Bills can provide a more concrete update on his timeline.

Kupp (knee) was limited to individual drills on the sideline at the start of OTAs on Monday, ESPN.com's Lindsey Thiry reports.

Kupp said he's happy with his progress but doesn't want to speculate on a target date for a return to practice. He's rehabbing from Nov. 16 surgery to repair a torn ACL and has been running in some capacity since at least mid-March. Coach Sean McVay said in April that he hopes to have the third-year wideout at close to 100 percent by Week 1. Kupp will be a little more than eight months removed from the surgery when the Rams open training camp in late July.

Jones has added eight to 10 pounds of lean muscle mass to his upper body this offseason, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. "I have been focusing on how I can maximize my frame and my body to be the best I can this year," said the third-year wideout. "I think it'll help in many aspects. My blocking, my play strength, endurance, stamina, prevention of injury. Nothing is guaranteed. Getting bigger and stronger doesn't guarantee anything, but it can only help you and give you a greater opportunity to be successful."

While we try not to pay too much attention to "bigger, stronger and in the best shape of my life" stories that are quite easy to find this time of year, Jones did struggle with lingering injuries entering last season and was far better in the season's second half compared to the first eight games. Also, he's struggled with being able to outmuscle defensive backs for the ball, so the added weight can only help. With the Bills beefing up their receiving corps this offseason -- namely John Brown and Cole Beasley -- there's been talk Jones' roster spot could be in jeopardy, though he did lead the team in receptions and receiving yards last season and seems to be getting the pro game down, not to mention he already has one season in the books with Josh Allen. Jones seems a lot closer to the No. 2 receiving spot than being a cut, though he'll probably have to fight off Robert Foster for looks in the offense, as Brown and Beasley seem set at two of the top three spots.
