Miller (knee) will not open training camp on the active/PUP list, allowing him to participate in practice, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Miller looks to have fully recovered from a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 7 of the 2025 season. Now that he's healthy, Miller will have the opportunity to compete against Alvin Kamara, Devin Neal (undisclosed) and Ty Chandler for the backup RB job behind starter Travis Etienne. In the six regular-season games prior to his injury, Miller turned 46 carries into 186 yards (4.0 YPC) and one touchdown while logging five catches on as many targets for 30 yards.

Harrison (cramps) will practice Tuesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Harrison didn't finish practice Sunday due to what coach Mike LaFleur described as cramping. However, the 2024 first-rounder is fine after Monday's day off and will return to the mix Tuesday. As the coming campaign approaches, Harrison will reprise his starting role alongside Michael Wilson. The 23-year-old Harrison is coming off a 2025 regular season in which he caught 41 of 73 passes for 608 yards and four TDs in 12 contests, but if he's able to stay healthy while building a strong rapport with starting QB Jacoby Brissett, his production should take a step forward.

The Saints placed Hardy (illness) on the active/non-football illness list Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Hardy is an undrafted free agent out of North Carolina State. If the tight end cannot get back to his peak physical condition, it is unlikely he will be able to compete with third-round rookie Oscar Delp or Moliki Matavao for the No. 3 tight end spot.

The Chiefs placed Gyllenborg (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Gyllenborg sprained his knee in late July and will need to miss some time. The tight end was moved to IR alongside defensive end Ethan Downs (knee), so the Chiefs now have two roster spots available for the start of training camp Wednesday morning.

The Giants activated Fidone (foot) from the active/PUP list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Fidone sustained a foot injury in late November of 2025 and underwent a cleanup procedure for the issue in early June. The tight end has recovered from the procedure and is all set to begin practicing with the team again. New acquisition Isaiah Likely is set to take the No. 1 tight end role, with Theo Johnson ready to do the dirty work as the secondary option. Fidone will battle with Chris Manhertz in camp for the opportunity to be included in 13-personnel sets during the 2026 season.

Ward (neck) and the Browns have agreed to a two-year, $62.2 million contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Ward's new deal -- which includes $52.3 million guaranteed -- makes him the highest paid defensive back in NFL history for the second time in his career. The 29-year-old corner was limited during team drills in minicamp last month, but he's presumably past the issue ahead of training camp. Ward is set to reprise his starting role in 2026.

The Bills placed Shavers (knee) on the active/PUP list Tuesday, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.

Shavers tore his ACL during the Bills' 27-24 win over the Jaguars in the 2025 wild-card round. Shavers played in all 17 regular-season games during the 2025 season, catching 15 of 23 targets for 245 yards and one touchdown. It remains to be seen where the 26-year-old fits into the 2026 Bills' offensive scheme, as Joshua Palmer is returning from an ankle issue, and the team drafted Skyler Bell in the fourth round of the 2026 Draft.

The Packers placed Parsons (knee) on the active/PUP list Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

The team's "nine-month rule" about ACL injuries means Parsons will not see action until mid-October at the earliest. The move to the active/PUP list was expected, and Parsons will continue to work on rehabbing as Lukas Van Ness, Barryn Sorrell and rookie fourth-rounder Dani Dennis-Sutton take on more of the load off the edge at the beginning of the 2026 regular season.

Dell (knee) won't start training camp on the PUP list, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

While it remains to be seen how much Dell will be able to do in practice once camp starts, avoiding the PUP list a good sign for the wideout as he makes his way back from a serious knee injury. The 2023 third-rounder hasn't seen game action since Week 16 of the 2024 season, so he figures to be eased in slowly. For now, Dell remains a very speculative fantasy option, but he could move up draft boards in the coming weeks if he looks sharp in training camp and re-establishes his chemistry with C.J. Stroud.

Salyer is ready to participate in training camp, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Salyer was carted off the field during the Dolphins' OTA's in early June, but the unspecified injury seems to have resolved itself quickly. The offensive lineman is all set to practice and will likely be one of the foremost depth options for the team, ready to step in and protect Malik Willis if another lineman suffers an injury.
