Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Dealing with injury
Wattenberg (undisclosed) did not participate in Saturday's training camp practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Per Stevens, Wattenberg sustained the injury during Monday's practice. The nature of the injury hasn't been announced, but it's prevented the 2022 fifth-rounder from practicing and puts him in jeopardy of missing Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons. Alex Forsyth would be in line to see more reps at center with the fist-team offense in Wattenberg's potential continued absence.

Jets' Kingsley Jonathan: Dealing with thigh bruise
Jonathan, who exited practice Saturday, is managing a thigh bruise.
Coach Aaron Glenn said Saturday that Jonathan will be "fine," so it doesn't sound like he's looking at an extended absence. The veteran defensive lineman is competing for a spot on the 53-man roster, so a quick return will be important for his chance of making the club.

Cam Lewis CB | CHI
Bears' Cam Lewis: Carted off field Saturday
Lewis left the field on a cart with a trainer Saturday after appearing to suffer a left leg injury, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Lewis was hurt during a two-minute drill and limped off the field while favoring his left leg. Though he was carted to the locker room, Greg Braggs Jr. of CHGO Sports notes that it's "standard procedure" for players to get a cart when hurt on Fields 3 and 4 (as Lewis was), whether the injury is serious or not. With that in mind, Lewis' outlook is hazy for the time being.

The Ravens signed Johnson to a contract Saturday, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.
Johnson spent time on the Packers' practice squad last year and appeared in two regular-season games, logging 10 tackles (three solo) and one pass defense.

Brenden Jaimes OT | NYG
Giants' Brenden Jaimes: Catches on with Big Blue
The Giants signed Jaimes to a contract Saturday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
John Michael Schmitz (head) and Lucas Patrick (ankle) are both dealing with injuries, so the addition of Jaimes gives the Giants some depth at center. Jaimes has appeared in 50 regular-season games (three starts) since being selected by the Chargers in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He appeared in four regular-season games for the Patriots in 2025.
