Brown appeared to sustain a right lower-leg injury during Tuesday's practice, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.

Per Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com, Brown subsequently headed back to Kansas City's team facility in the front seat of a cart to be evaluated. Consider the wideout day-to-day until an update on his status is provided.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said the injury Lloyd (undisclosed) sustained at Monday's practice is still being evaluated but may have been non-contact, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Lloyd was initially reported to have been injured as the result of a hit from cornerback Nate Hobbs, but LaFleur and GM Brian Gutekunst now believe the injury occurred before contact, per Bill Huber of SI.com. Hamstring injuries, a severe ankle sprain and appendicitis limited the 2024 third-round pick to just one appearance during his rookie campaign, but Lloyd had been impressing the coaching staff early in training camp. If he's sidelined for long, it could pave the way for Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks to again work as the backups to Josh Jacobs.

Hooper (undisclosed), who had been on the active/PUP list, returned to practice Tuesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Hooper caught 45 of 59 targets for 476 yards and three touchdowns over 17 regular-season games in 2024, and he should retain a fairly significant role in the Patriots passing offense while paired with fellow tight end Hunter Henry, who recorded a 66-674-2 line in 16 contests. As long as a tight end timeshare that tilts in Henry's favor remains in place, Hooper is only a fantasy factor in deeper leagues and TEP formats.

Brown (leg) will miss the rest of training camp, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.

Brown suffered a lower-leg injury and is not expected to be back during training camp, head coach Liam Coen announced Monday. The 25-year-old had the most productive season of his career in 2024, appearing in all 17 regular-season games while drawing 10 starts and recording his first career interception. It is still unclear whether this injury will linger into the regular season, but it will impact Brown's opportunities for the time being since he was competing for a starting role in Jacksonville's secondary.

Brade (ankle) has been fully participating in training camp.

Brade suffered an ankle injury back in June that kept him out during OTAs. The 23-year-old spent the majority of his time last season on special teams, logging just 11 defensive snaps over 11 regular-season games. The second-year safety will likely occupy a similar role should he make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Harris turned in one of his best practices of training camp Monday, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic.

Harris showed off his strong hands and contested-catch ability while working in 11-on-11 drills helmed by Justin Herbert. While veteran wideout Jalen Reagor (lower body) has been sidelined, Harris and fellow rookie KeAndre Lambert-Smith have had an opportunity to make their marks in practice. With Mike Williams having retired, there's a path for Harris -- who the Chargers took in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft -- to earn a key role out of the gate this season, while working alongside returnees Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston.

Magee is healthy and participating in training camp, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

Magee suffered a knee injury during the team's first preseason contest last year, which ultimately required a stint on injured reserve. Magee did end up returning midway through the season but was used almost exclusively on special teams. Now heading into his second season, the 2024 fifth-round pick is looking to prove himself and find a role on the 53-man roster.

Nabers exited Tuesday's practice session early after appearing to injure his shoulder while blocking on a run play, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Nabers walked off the field under his own power with a trainer, per Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. There aren't any indications that Nabers has sustained any sort of significant injury, with Dan Duggan of The Athletic noting that the second-year wideout may have simply been shaken up, but he at least appears done for the day. The 2024 first-round pick began training camp as a full practice participant, though head coach Brian Daboll has suggested that the toe injury that kept him sidelined throughout OTAs may need to be managed.

Owens (ankle) took first-team reps in training camp last week, Hayley Salvatore of Commanders.com reports.

Owens ended the 2024 season on injured reserve with an ankle injury suffered in Week 16. His high-level play on special teams last season has earned him an expanded role on defense, but to what degree remains to seen. The 24-year-old could be in position to start at safety following Jeremy Chinn's departure this offseason.

Pierce (foot) is participating in practice Tuesday, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Pierce missed Monday's practice due to a blister on his foot, but it didn't take long for the 2022 second-round pick to get back to work. Despite poor quarterback play last year for the Colts, Pierce tallied career-high marks in receiving yards (824) and touchdowns (seven) while leading the league in yards per catch (22.3) across 16 regular-season games. As Indianapolis' go-to deep threat, every training camp rep will matter for Pierce as he works to build chemistry with both Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.
