Collins (calf) will be back on the practice field during training camp, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

It's not entirely clear what happened to Collins, but at this point it doesn't seem to be anything too severe. The rookie will miss valuable learning opportunities during minicamp this week, however. As long as he's available, the 2025 second-round pick should play a notable role on San Francisco's defensive line.

Johnson (Achilles) is expected to start training camp on the PUP list in July, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Despite that, coach Aaron Glenn said Tuesday he believes Johnson will be ready for the start of the 2025 season. The defensive end still has about three months to recover from the Achilles tear he suffered in Week 2 of last season to make that a reality, but for now, Micheal Clemons will take first-team reps in practice.

Wilkins (foot) was inactive for the start of the Raiders' mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Wilkins is still dealing with a foot injury that he sustained against the Broncos in Week 5 last year, sidelining him for the rest of the campaign. The defensive tackle was without a return timeline during OTAs in May, and his availability for training camp in late July remains uncertain.

Wonnum (back) participated in a limited capacity during minicamp Tuesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Wonnum sat out Carolina's last two open workouts entirely, so Tuesday's action is a sign of progress in his recovery from a lingering back issue. There's no concrete timeline for his return to full activity, but once available he projects as a starter on the edge for the Panthers in 2025.

King (forearm) did not participate during minicamp Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

King is evidently hurt enough that he needs to wear a cast on his right forearm, though it's not immediately clear what happened. Until he's ready to return to action, rookie seventh-rounder Micah Robinson could see higher leverage opportunities at practice.

Bosa (calf) was inactive for the start the Bills' mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.

Bosa remained on the sidelines as minicamp got underway, continuing to nurse the calf injury that forced him to miss OTAs. With only two days left in minicamp, the 29-year-old will likely sit it out completely, and he'll shift his focus to being ready for training camp in late July.

Melton was running cornerback drills during minicamp Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Melton was fifth among Green Bay's pass catchers in snaps in 2024, but after the team added Matthew Golden and Savion Williams in the 2025 Draft and signed veteran Mecole Hardman in free agency this offseason, Melton's place on the roster became uncertain. His 4.34 speed at least allows him to project as a special teams asset, and the Packers may get creative finding ways to keep him on the 53-man roster. At least for now, there's an opening at cornerback thanks to the recent release of Jaire Alexander (knee).

Minnesota signed Ricci on Tuesday.

In a corresponding transaction, the Vikings released linebacker Matt Harmon. Ricci was dropped by Cleveland last August before signing a futures deal with New England in February, and he's now changing uniforms again. He's unlikely to crack Minnesota's 53-man roster in 2025.

Sneed (quadriceps) will not participate at minicamp this week, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Sneed missed the last 12 games of last season with a left leg issue, and it seems he's still not ready for football activities as offseason workouts wrap up. His next opportunity to return to action will come during training camp in July.

Gardner is present for the Jets' mandatory minicamp, although he continues to seek a new contract, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

Gardner is entering the final year of his rookie deal, and he's coming off a 2024 campaign in which he recorded 49 total tackles (36 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding nine passes defensed with an interception over 15 regular-season games. The cornerback is considered to be among the best in the league, and with the Panthers' Jaycee Horn and the Texans' Derek Stingley resetting the cornerback market with new contracts this offseason, Gardner is looking to get similar compensation from the Jets.
