Coach Robert Saleh said Tate (undisclosed) missed Tuesday's practice due to some "stiffness," Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

There's been no indication the first-round rookie wideout's status for Week 1 against the Jets is in any sort of danger. Tate played 38 offensive snaps during the preseason but failed to catch any of his six targets across the three exhibition contests. He's expected to serve as Cam Ward's top downfield weapon this season with slot man Wan'Dale Robinson (head) handling underneath routes, though Calvin Ridley is still in the mix at the position. There could be growing pains for Tate in 2026 in what is expected to be one of the lowest-scoring offenses in the league.

McCaffrey (undisclosed) suited up and went through drills at Tuesday's practice, according to Matt Lively of CBS Sports Bay Area.

McCaffrey was able to run and catch passes Tuesday in full uniform, so it would appear he has not encountered any hiccups since returning to practice a little over a week ago. It has been a while since the last official update on McCaffrey's status, but it would appear he continues trending in the right direction ahead of Week 1.

Tracy (neck) is present at Tuesday's practice in a non-contact jersey, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Tracy suffered a neck stinger in last Friday's preseason finale and avoided a major injury. Despite a rocky preseason and training camp under new coach John Harbaugh and OC Matt Nagy, Tracy still managed to make the Giants' 53-man roster. However, Najee Harris and Devin Singletary are also in the mix behind Cam Skattebo, leaving Tracy's actual role uncertain.

Nabers (knee) was not spotted at the portion of Tuesday's practice open to the media, but he later took the field in uniform, according to Connor Hughes of SNY.tv.

The apparent absence raised some alarms after he said Monday he was unsure about his Week 1 availability, but Nabers was able to join Tuesday's session midway through. It's unclear how much work he will get in Tuesday, however. Nabers played only four games last season before suffering a significant knee injury.

Love (ankle) was spotted at Tuesday's practice but wasn't suited up, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Love has been tending to a high-ankle sprain since the Cardinals' first preseason game and hasn't practiced since. Coach Mike LaFleur told Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com on Monday that Love is "progressing really well" toward being available for Week 1, but the rookie running back will need to mix into drills to begin to put questions about his status for the regular-season opener against the Chargers in the rearview mirror.

Juszczyk (finger) is not practicing Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Juszczyk has been dealing with a finger injury for the past month but was able to practice Monday, so his absence Tuesday is notable. It could also just be some sort of veteran management. The fullback has no fantasy value after averaging just 1.8 touches per game last regular season.

Miller exited Tuesday's practice alongside trainers with an apparent injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

There's been no indication Miller is dealing with a serious injury, but his departure leaves just Audric Estime as the lone healthy running back behind Travis Etienne, as Alvin Kamara is still recovering from a sprained MCL in his knee. A third-round pick in 2023, Miller has appeared in just 21 career regular-season games, rushing 127 times for 497 yards (3.9 YPC) and three touchdowns.

Coleman (right foot/toe) was present at Tuesday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Coleman sustained a sprained right foot/toe in the Bills' preseason opener Aug. 15, but he ditched his low walking boot as of last Thursday and now appears set to mix back into drills. He has nearly two weeks to get healthy ahead of a Week 1 road matchup with the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 13.

Shakir (undisclosed) remains sidelined at Tuesday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Shakir was able to suit up for preseason Week 1 against the Panthers on Saturday, Aug. 15, hauling in both of his targets for 41 yards while playing eight offensive snaps. However, he's been out of drills since Aug. 20 and didn't suit up for the Bills' final two exhibitions due to an undisclosed injury. Buffalo opens the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 13 at Houston, giving him less than two weeks to get himself ready for game action.

Johnson (lower leg) remains sidelined at Tuesday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Johnson exited practice in early August and has been dealing with some sort of issue in his leg for the better part of a full month now. He resumed running and sprinting last week. Turning 29 later this month, Johnson has carved out a role on game days with the Bills, but he's more of a nuisance than anything in fantasy. Even if James Cook were to go down with an injury, Johnson's role likely wouldn't change all that much, as Ray Davis is Cook's more direct backup as a rusher. Johnson has averaged just 3.9 touches per game over his 34 regular-season appearances dating back to the start of the 2024 campaign.
