Turpin has taken handoffs with the first-team offense during the first couple days of training camp, Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com reports.

The 28-year-old is locked into a roster spot as the Cowboys' primary kick returner and as a depth option at wideout, but Turpin could be adding more duties to his portfolio. Dallas lacks an established starter in the backfield, with bargain free-agent signings Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders battling with rookies Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah, as well as holdover Deuce Vaughn, for snaps and touches, and Turpin appears to be tossing his hat in the ring. While he's unlikely to win the top job outright, he could work in as part of a committee and provide a direct threat to Blue and Vaughn as an undersized speedster who can contribute as a receiver.

Moore is healthy for training camp and competing for work as a punt returner, Mark Craig of The Star Tribune reports.

The 2021 second-round pick never panned out as a starting wide receiver, but he'll try to continue his career as a return specialist and depth wideout after a non-contact knee injury last summer cost him the entire 2024 campaign. The Vikings return starting wideouts Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor, with rookie third-round pick Tai Felton giving the team a fourth roster lock at the position. That likely leaves two spots up for grabs, with special teams potentially a big factor in determining them.

Giants coach Brian Daboll suggested Thursday that Nabers' toe could require continued management even though the wideout is practicing at the start of training camp, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Nabers said Wednesday that his toe feels good at the moment but might end up requiring surgery at some point in his career. It's an issue that dates back to college, and while it popped up again toward the end of his rookie season, Nabers nonetheless had 235 receiving yards and three TDs over the final two weeks, making his case as a first-round fantasy pick for 2025. He's mostly going in the second half of the first round now, with ADP reflecting minimal concern (if any) about the toe injury that held him out of spring practices.

Bears coach Ben Johnson said Thursday that he hopes Burden (undisclosed) will be ready to practice in a few days, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Burden's soft-tissue injury from the offseason program lingered longer than the Bears expected, but they apparently remain optimistic he'll be available for the start of training camp. Once he's declared healthy, the 39th overall pick figures to compete with Olamide Zaccheaus for the No. 3 WR spot, behind returning starters DJ Moore and Rome Odunze.

Berrios (knee) returned to practice Wednesday, Jonathan Alexander and Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Berrios made his practice debut Wednesday and played with the second and third-team quarterbacks. He reportedly had a good day, which he'll likely need to stack to make the roster. Berrios is also a good special-teams contributor, which could be another path to him sticking with the team.

The Rams placed Edwards (undisclosed) on the active/PUP list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

It's unclear what type of injury Edwards has, but he will be eligible to participate in practice and preseason games once he has fully recovered. He signed with the Rams as an undrafted free agent in late April after a strong final collegiate season at Louisiana Tech, catching 84 passes for 986 yards and six touchdowns across 13 games in 2024.

Webb was activated from the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Webb joined the Patriots as an undrafted free agent this spring and was sidelined to begin camp with an undisclosed injury. While it's still a longshot for him to make the roster, getting back on the field quickly can only help his chances.

Thornton continued to get first-team reps as training camp got underway for the Raiders on Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Thornton saw work with the first-team offense during the team's mandatory minicamp in mid-June. The wide receiver continued to work with starting quarterback Geno Smith and the top unit Wednesday, joining the group whenever the offense was in 11 personnel. Thornton ran an impressive 4.30-second 40-yard dash time at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, which makes sense considering he averaged 25.4 yards per catch as a vertical threat in his final season of collegiate action with Tennessee in 2024. The wide receiver will likely have every shot to carve out a consistent role for himself with the Raiders in 2025.

Corley (undisclosed) participated in Wednesday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Corley missed most of OTAs and minicamp due to an undisclosed injury. He was cleared to return to practice Wednesday but struggled during 11-on-11 drills, and the 2024 third-rounder will have to make the most of his reps during training camp to earn a spot on the Jets' 53-man roster for the 2025 campaign. Corley played just 80 offensive snaps across nine regular-season games last year, posting three catches (on six targets) for 16 yards while rushing for 26 yards on two carries.

Horn (hamstring) participated in Wednesday's practice, Darin Gantt and Kassidy Hill of the Panthers' official site report.

Horn suffered a hamstring injury during OTAs in June, but he looks to be past the issue. He spent a good portion of Wednesday's practice fielding punts, and the rookie sixth-rounder would carve a spot for himself on the 53-man roster were he to win that job.
