  • Bryan Cook SAF | CIN

    Bengals' Bryan Cook: Sidelined for preseason opener

    Cook (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason game against Detroit, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Cook has been working through an unspecified injury since Sunday. The injury will prevent him from playing in Thursday's preseason opener, and the Bengals' next exhibition game takes place Saturday, Aug. 22 against the Bears. Kyle Dugger and PJ Jules will both see more reps at safety alongside Jordan Battle while Cook is sidelined.

  • Daxton Hill DB | CIN

    Bengals' Dax Hill: Won't play Thursday

    Hill (hamstring) will not play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Lions, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Hill recently sustained a hamstring injury that has caused him to be sidelined for training camp practices, and he'll aim to be available for the Bengals' second preseason game on Saturday, Aug. 22 against the Bears. Tacario Davis, Josh Newton and Ja'Sir Taylor will all have the opportunity to operate in expanded roles in the secondary for as long as Hill is out of action.

  • Eagles' Jonathan Greenard: Out for at least two more weeks

    Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said Tuesday that Greenard (pectoral) won't be back at practice "for another couple weeks, at least," Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Greenard opened training camp on the active/PUP list due to a pectoral injury that he sustained during the offseason while lifting weights. The 2020 third-rounder is not ready to return to practice and appears to have a minimal chance of suiting up in any of the Eagles' three preseason games, with the last exhibition contest taking place Friday, Aug. 28 against the Bengals. Greenard was acquired by the Eagles from the Vikings in late April and is expected to lead Philadelphia's pass-rushing group that also includes Jalyx Hunt, Nolan Smith, A.J. Epenesa and Arnold Ebiketie.

  • Jahdae Walker WR | CHI

    Bears' Jahdae Walker: Listed as second-string WR

    Walker was listed as a second-string wide receiver on the Bears' first unofficial depth chart that was released Tuesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

    Walker saw limited action for most of his rookie season and did not play in either of the Bears' two playoff games, though he did log six catches (on 10 targets) for 87 yards and two touchdowns across Chicago's final three regular-season games. He entered training camp competing against Kalif Raymond and rookie Zavion Thomas (knee) for the WR3 role. However, Walker will have the chance to earn a more consistent role for himself on offense over the next few weeks, as Luther Burden will miss all three of the Bears' preseason games due to a groin injury.

  • Jonathan Jones DB | PHI

    Eagles' Jonathan Jones: Sidelined by shoulder injury

    Jones did not participate in Tuesday's training camp practice due to a shoulder injury, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

    According to defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, Jones will "miss some time" due to the shoulder injury that he picked up in training camp, per Berman. Jones signed a one-year deal with the Eagles in March after playing in 12 regular-season games (seven starts) for the Commanders in 2025, accumulating 41 tackles (30 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and five pass defenses. It appears he won't be available for Saturday's preseason opener against the Ravens, though Jones could return for the Eagles' second exhibition game against the Patriots on Saturday, Aug. 22.

  • Nate Wiggins CB | BAL

    Ravens' Nate Wiggins: No structural damage in leg

    Wiggins suffered no structural damage in his left leg after he was carted off the field during Tuesday's practice, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Wiggins got tangled up with rookie WR Ja'Kobi Lane during a 1-on-1 drill and couldn't put any weight on his left leg in the aftermath of the play. Coach Jesse Minter later told Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com that he thinks "there's optimism" regarding the situation, "but we'll look at it, [and] we'll see where it's at." While Wiggins appears to have avoided a significant injury, a definitive prognosis has yet to emerge for the third-year cornerback, who totaled 76 tackles and three interceptions over 17 regular-season games in 2025.

  • Chiefs' Emmanuel Ogbah: Reunites with Kansas City

    Ogbah signed a one-year contract with the Chiefs on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Ogbah was part of the Chiefs' roster in 2019 and contributed to the team's run to Super Bowl LIV. He has 10 NFL seasons under his belt and appeared in 13 regular-season games for the Jaguars in 2025, when he logged 15 tackles (six solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defense. Ashton Gillotte (hamstring) has been sidelined for the past two weeks of training camp, so Ogbah will have the opportunity to compete for a rotational role at defensive end behind starters George Karlaftis and Felix Anudike-Uzomah.

  • Packers' Carrington Valentine: Aiming to return next week

    Head coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that the hope is Valentine (hamstring) is cleared to return to training camp practices next week, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Given LaFleur's comments, Valentine will not be available for Thursday's preseason opener against the Steelers. If the 2023 seventh-rounder is cleared to return to practice next week, then he could be available for the Packers' second exhibition contest against the Broncos on Friday, Aug. 21. Benjamin St-Juste and Brandon Cisse will work more with the first-team offense opposite cornerback Keisean Nixon for as long as Valentine is sidelined.

  • David Bailey LB | NYJ

    Jets' David Bailey: Back at practice Tuesday

    Bailey (ankle) was cleared to participate in Tuesday's training camp practice, Ralph Vacchiano of FoxSports.com reports.

    Bailey was considered day-to-day due to an ankle injury that he picked up during Sunday's practice. The injury wasn't a serious one, and with the rookie first-rounder back on the field Tuesday, it puts him on track to be available for Friday's preseason game against the Buccaneers.

  • Browns' Shedeur Sanders: Listed as co-starter on unofficial depth chart

    Deshaun Watson and Sanders are listed as co-starters on the Brown' unofficial depth chart, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Coach Todd Monken has yet to reveal his QB plans for Saturday's preseason opener against the Bears, but it's expected that whichever of the two signal callers starts that contest will give way the other one in Cleveland's second exhibition tilt. For the time being, Watson and Sanders continue to share first-team practice reps, with no timeline offered for a decision on the team's Week 1 starter.
