The Titans waived/injured Banks (undisclosed) on Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Banks will be subject to waivers and will revert to the Titans' injured reserve for the entirety of the 2026 season if he goes unclaimed. In such a scenario, the only way the linebacker would be able to play in 2026 is if he subsequently reached an injury settlement with the team.

Wingo left the Lions' training camp practice to be evaluated for a groin injury Thursday, Richard Silva of The Detroit News reports.

The severity of the injury is unknown, and there's no concrete timetable for Wingo's return. Until he's able to practice again, rookie sixth-rounder Skyler Gill-Howard and Myles Adams could see an uptick in reps at practice.

Flowers (undisclosed) exited Thursday's training camp session early due to injury, Adam Jahns of AllCHGO.com reports.

Flowers needed to be helped off the field after going down and holding his right leg. While there is no additional information currently available, the cornerback looks to have suffered a significant injury. Flowers played in just one regular-season game for the Bears in 2025, logging eight special-teams snaps before being waived the following week.

Jones (undisclosed) left Chicago's training camp practice with trainers Thursday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

The details of what happened to Jones are unknown, but it's something the Bears will be keeping a close eye on in the coming days. As long as he and 2025 second-rounder Ozzy Trapilo (knee) remain unavailable, Kiran Amegadjie projects to fill in at left tackle.

Collins (concussion) reverted to the Giants' injured reserve Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Collins is set to spend the entirety of the 2026 season on injured reserve unless he is waived with an injury settlement. The wide receiver out of Notre Dame played in nine regular-season games for the Giants during his rookie season, logging two receptions for 25 yards over 84 offensive snaps.

The Cowboys placed Fant (knee) on injured reserve Thursday.

Fant suffered a torn ACL and sprained MCL, eliminating any chance for the tight end to participate in the 2026 season. He is scheduled to have surgery for both injuries within the next several days. The fourth-year player out of Tennessee has played in 11 career regular-season games and will be a free agent in 2027. In a corresponding move, the Cowboys claimed tight end Zack Kuntz off waivers from the Raiders.

Carter (ankle) has returned to action at training camp with the Giants, Dan Salomone and Matt Citak of the team's official website reports.

Carter was dealing with a sprained ankle during the Giants' OTAs in early June, but he now appears to have fully recovered from the injury. The 22-year-old is coming off of a rookie campaign during which he compiled 43 total tackles (25 solo), including 4.0 sacks, while also recording two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries over 17 regular-season contests.

Holland (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's training camp session, John Schmeelk of the Giants' official site reports.

Holland missed the Giants' 2025 regular-season finale due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 17. The free safety is back in full pads and ready to reclaim his spot with the first-team defense. Holland finished the 2025 season with 63 tackles (38 solo) and five passes defensed, including one interception, over 14 regular-season contests.

Dallas claimed Kuntz off waivers Thursday.

Kuntz was bound to become a free agent after Las Vegas waived him Wednesday, but the Cowboys stepped in before that could come to pass. In a corresponding transaction, Dallas placed tight end Princeton Fant (knee) on its injured-reserve list.

Rechsteiner (suspension) will miss the first six games of the 2026 regular season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Rechsteiner will be eligible to participate in all preseason activities, with his suspension beginning once rosters are reduced to 53 players. The league did not disclose what rules the undrafted free agent out of Jacksonville State violated. If Rechsteiner does not make the Saints roster, the suspension will still run its course while he is a free agent.
