Gibbs (back) was in uniform and taking reps during the early walkthrough portion of Thursday's practice, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Gibbs, who coach Dan Campbell previously noted was dealing with a "little bit of a back" issue that cropped up during conditioning tests, has been looking for a new deal with the Lions, so his presence at practice, in any capacity, is notable. However, per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, after the team's walkthrough and stretch, Gibbs went to a side field to work with a trainer, so it appears as though the running back may not participate in the rest of Thursday's session after all.

Taylor agreed to terms Thursday with the Colts on a two-year, $44 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Schefter relays that the deal is worth up to $47 million and includes $39 million guaranteed. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Taylor's new deal is the largest-ever third contract for an NFL running back, setting the stage for the 27-year-old to continue working as the undisputed lead option in a Colts backfield that also includes DJ Giddens, Seth McGowan, Ulysses Bentley, Anderson Castle and Roydell Williams. With both Taylor and Bijan Robinson now having landed extensions, attention turns to Detroit's Jahmyr Gibbs, another top-tier running back looking for a lucrative new pact ahead of Week 1.

Garrett (lower body) participated in the Rams' training camp Wednesday, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Garrett made his return to the field after having been sidelined for the last several practice sessions due to a lower-body injury. The 2017 first-round pick was traded to Los Angeles from Cleveland earlier in the offseason and will look to bolster the Rams' pass rush during the upcoming campaign.

Stephens (neck) participated in the Jets' training camp Wednesday, Amanda Vogt of the team's official site reports.

Stephens was dealing with a neck injury at the end of last season that forced him to miss the Week 18 loss to the Bills. The 28-year-old is once again expected to serve as one of the Jets' starting cornerbacks during the upcoming campaign.

The Lions activated Conklin (knee) off the active/PUP list Wednesday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Conklin landed on the PUP list late last month due to a knee injury but is now healthy again. The 30-year-old is competing with Brock Wright for the team's backup tight end role behind Sam LaPorta.

The Saints activated Silver (undisclosed) off the active/PUP list Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Silver is healthy again after spending just over a week on the PUP list. The rookie undrafted free agent will now spend the remainder of the summer competing for a depth spot on New Orleans' roster.

Williamson (ankle) participated in the Chargers' training camp Wednesday, Eric Smith of the team's official site reports.

Williamson missed the team's wild-card loss to the Patriots last season but is now healthy again. The 25-year-old will likely serve as a reserve safety and special teamer once again during the upcoming campaign.

Wohler (foot) is healthy for Indianapolis' training camp, Noah Compton of Sports Illustrated reports.

Wohler suffered a foot injury during the preseason last year but is now healthy again. The 23-year-old will spend the remainder of the summer competing for a roster spot and will look to make his regular-season debut during the upcoming campaign.

Freeland (leg) participated in Indianapolis' training camp Tuesday.

Freeland missed the entirety of last season due to a fractured leg but is now fully recovered. He will likely serve as the Colts' backup left tackle behind Bernhard Raimann during the upcoming campaign.

Peart (knee) participated in Denver's training camp Tuesday.

Peart is now fully recovered from the knee injury that landed him on the Broncos' injured reserve last October. The 28-year-old will likely serve as the team's backup left tackle behind Garett Bolles during the upcoming season.
