Steelers' Jeremiah Moon: Suffers calf injury
Moon suffered a calf injury during Pittsburgh's practice Saturday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Kenny McIntosh RB | SEA
Seahawks' Kenny McIntosh: Suffers leg injury
McIntosh suffered a leg injury during Seattle's practice Saturday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
McIntosh had to be helped off the field after suffering a leg injury during a special-teams drill. The 25-year-old was unable to put any weight on his left leg following the injury. Should he be forced to miss extended time, Steven Sims could take over his role as the team's primary kick returner.

John Stephens, Jr. TE | DAL
Cowboys' John Stephens: Participating in training camp
Stephens (knee) is participating in Dallas' training camp, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Stephens is practicing again after having recovered from a torn ACL he suffered in practice last October. The 2023 undrafted free agent has yet to appear in a regular-season game but will have a chance to make his debut should he earn a spot on the team's final roster.

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.

Josh Metellus SAF | MIN
Vikings' Josh Metellus: Extends contract with Vikings
Metellus (ankle) signed a three-year, $36 million contract extension with the Vikings on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal includes $25 million guaranteed.
Metellus has played 34 regular-season games (27 starts) over the past two seasons, and he recorded 219 tackles (141 solo), 2.5 sacks, 10 pass breakups, five forced fumbles and three interceptions in that stretch. Metellus is a utility player in Minnesota's defense. He's listed as a safety but often lines up as a box linebacker and a slot cornerback, leading to high tackle counts for IDP purposes. According to Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, Metellus is still dealing with a minor ankle injury that will keep him out of Saturday's practice, but he should return to action Monday.

Drew Sanders LB | DEN
Broncos' Drew Sanders: Suffers injury Saturday
Sanders left Saturday's practice with an undisclosed injury, Luca Evans of The Denver Post reports.
Sanders initially went to the trainers before heading to the locker room on a cart. The 2023 third-round pick suffered a torn Achilles in May of last year, so he played just four regular-season games and 17 defensive snaps. Sanders will compete for a reserve role in training camp behind Dre Greenlaw and Alex Singleton if he can shake off this injury.

Nick Chubb RB | HOU
Texans' Nick Chubb: Opportunity knocks
Chubb figures to see more opportunities during training camp after Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that Joe Mixon (foot/ankle) is facing an extended absence.
Chubb is almost two years removed from his catastrophic knee injury that included ACL, MCL and meniscus tears. The 2018 second-round pick played in eight regular-season games last season and rushed 102 times for 332 yards (3.3 YPC) and three touchdowns. None of his carries went for 20 or more yards. However, the Texans are hoping he can return to form with another offseason of training under his belt, and the opportunity is clear now that Mixon is in danger of missing regular-season games, although that will be determined closer to Week 1. Rookie fourth-round pick Woody Marks should also get in the mix, especially in passing situations.

Joe Mixon RB | HOU
Texans' Joe Mixon: Set to miss extended time
Mixon (foot/ankle) is expected to face an extended absence and will be re-evaluated closer to the beginning of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Mixon is currently on the active/non-football injury list due to an ankle injury, but Rapaport added that it's a foot injury that will cause him to miss serious time. It's unclear if these two injuries are related. Regardless, this could be a significant loss for the Texans, as Mixon posted the fifth 1,000-yard rushing season of his career through 14 regular-season games last year. Nick Chubb will likely take a significant portion of the first-team reps moving forward while rookie Woody Marks rotates in because Dameon Pierce (undisclosed) is on the PUP list. Mixon could still get healthy by Week 1, but he will be re-evaluated closer to the beginning of the season to determine a timetable for his return.

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.
