  • Bills' David White: Placed on reserve/retired list

    The Bills placed White (personal) on the reserve/retired list Saturday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    White had previously missed practice Friday due to personal reasons prior to being placed on the reserve/retired list. He had only signed with the team Tuesday, and it's unclear whether or he'll rejoin the team.

  • Treylon Burks WR | WAS

    Titans' Treylon Burks: Suffers fractured collarbone

    Burks fractured his collarbone during Saturday's practice, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Burks made an incredible diving catch during Saturday's practice but came up holding his right shoulder before heading to the locker room. The 2022 first-round pick has struggled with injuries throughout his young career, as he suffered a torn ACL last season and has played only 27 regular-season games through three campaigns. It's unclear when he will return, but he's expected to at least miss the beginning of the season. This opens the door for Van Jefferson and rookies Chimere Dike and Elic Ayomanor to secure the No. 3 wide receiver role in the meantime.

  • Treylon Burks WR | WAS

    Titans' Treylon Burks: Leaves practice Saturday

    Burks (shoulder/knee) exited Saturday's practice after making a diving one-handed catch, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.

    Burks has been practicing for a couple days now after his 2024 campaign was cut short due to a torn ACL. He beat a cornerback deep during Saturday's practice and made a phenomenal catch but came up holding his shoulder before heading to the locker room. Burks is vying for a starting wide receiver job during training camp, so any missed time will be detrimental.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Back at practice

    Tillman (lower leg) returned to practice Saturday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Tillman left practice early Friday but was quickly cleared of a serious injury, and his return to the practice field confirms this was only a scare. The 2023 third-round pick is in line for the No. 2 wideout role in Cleveland behind Jerry Jeudy. Last season, Tillman recorded 29 receptions for 339 yards and three touchdowns across 11 games.

  • George Pickens WR | DAL

    Cowboys' George Pickens: Not yet clicking on deep routes

    Pickens hasn't quite been on the same page as quarterback Dak Prescott on deeper routes during the early part of training camp, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    The duo has looked good on short or intermediate routes, but the timing hasn't quite been there further downfield. "I think that's all to come," Prescott said after Thursday's practice. "I don't think that's necessarily something we've got to grow into... For [Pickens], it's just about continuing to master the offense, the routes and the adjustments on certain routes. When he does that, the rest of it is going to come." With CeeDee Lamb and Jake Ferguson as established targets for Prescott nearer the line of scrimmage, Pickens' best chance to make a big impact in the Dallas offense will come as a deep threat, something he's shown he can provide in the past -- the 24-year-old wideout led the NFL with 18.1 yards per catch in 2023 for a Steelers team that featured the uninspiring trio of Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph and Mitchell Trubisky under center.

  • JaQuae Jackson WR | LAC

    Chargers' JaQuae Jackson: Bolts to Los Angeles

    The Chargers signed Jackson to a contract Friday.

    Jackson had a solid chance to make the Patriots' 53-man roster in 2024 before suffering a season-ending, non-contact knee injury during New England's second preseason game last August. He was let go by the Patriots in April, and while he wasn't able to catch on with a team during the offseason, he'll now have the opportunity to audition his talents with the Chargers. He faces an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster, but a strong showing in practices and preseason games could earn Jackson a spot on the practice squad.

  • Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG

    Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Absent from Friday's practice

    Hyatt did not participate in Friday's practice due to cramping and tightness in his lower body, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

    Hyatt appears to be past a leg injury that he suffered during mandatory minicamp in June. The 2023 third-rounder is working through some lingering issues early in training camp, but that shouldn't impact his availability for preseason games. Hyatt needs all the reps he can get during training camp, as he's competing for the WR4 job against Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Zach Pascal, among others.

  • Darnell Mooney WR | ATL

    Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Hurts shoulder, out multiple weeks

    Mooney is dealing with a shoulder injury and will be out "a few weeks," Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    Mooney had to leave the field with a trainer Thursday after hurting his shoulder while trying to make a diving catch during practice. The injury certainly puts the veteran wideout's status in doubt for the Falcons' first preseason game, which will take place Aug. 8 versus Detroit, and could also impact his availability for the remainder of the preseason slate and even potentially for Week 1 of the campaign. Atlanta signed veteran receiver DJ Chark on Friday to add depth to its wideout corps in the wake of Mooney's injury.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Expected to be fine after scare

    Tillman is believed to be okay after leaving practice early Friday due to a lower left leg injury, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

    Tillman had to leave the field Friday after appearing to hurt his left leg during practice. The specifics of the injury aren't yet clear, but Schultz's report suggests that the 25-year-old wideout isn't dealing with a major issue. That's a sigh of relief for Cleveland and Tillman, who's in line to work as the Browns' No. 2 wideout this season behind Jerry Jeudy.

  • Colton Dowell: Let go by Tennessee

    The Titans waived Dowell on Friday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    Dowell was sidelined for the entire 2024 season after rupturing his ACL against the Texans in late December of 2023. He was cleared to participate in OTAs and minicamp, but he will not be a part of the Titans' roster in training camp and will explore his next opportunity if he clears waivers. The 2023 seventh-rounder appeared in 10 regular-season games in his rookie year and caught one pass on two targets for three yards while mostly serving on special teams.
