Patriots' Drake Maye: Sharp at Monday's practice session
Maye completed every pass during the first two periods of practice Monday, including a deep ball to A.J. Brown, Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com reports.
The star quarterback is building chemistry with his new targets, Brown and Romeo Doubs. Maye hit Brown on a deep shot and had multiple completions to Doubs, according to Kyles. After a standout second season, Maye is looking to continue his ascent with the help of some new star power out wide.

Najee Harris: Visiting with Giants
Harris (Achilles) visited the Giants on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The veteran is visiting a team for the first time since the spring, when he met with both the Raiders and Seahawks. Harris is working his way back from a torn Achilles that ended his 2025 season in Week 3. The Giants have plenty of youth in their running back room with Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy, along with the seasoned Devin Singletary. Harris is two years removed from notching his fourth 1,000-yard season as a pro.

Anthony Richardson QB | IND
Colts' Anthony Richardson: Remains in Colts' plans
Richardson is expected to remain with the Colts in 2026, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.
Assistant general manager Ed Dodds spoke about Indianapolis' quarterback situation Sunday, saying, "We want to have three [quarterbacks] that can play," Dodds said. "So, if [Richardson] is one of them, he's going to be here. ... Look at last year. You never know." Richardson enters his fourth season with the team but is ticketed for a backup role behind Daniel Jones. He had a strong showing in his preseason start against New England, going 11 of 14 for 145 yards to go with 53 rushing yards.

Nate Wiggins CB | BAL
Ravens' Nate Wiggins: Back in practice Monday
Wiggins (leg) returned to practice Monday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
This is a big development for the Ravens' secondary after Wiggins had an injury scare in practice Tuesday. Wiggins is reportedly already back in pads, which bodes well for his participation level in practice this week. The third-year player out of Clemson is the key piece of Baltimore's cornerback room.

Brenden Bates TE | CLE
Brenden Bates: Waived by Browns
Bates (undisclosed) was waived with an injury designation Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
The Browns brought in Jermaine Terry in a corresponding move to add more depth to the tight-end room. Bates, a third-year pro out of Kentucky, will now look to latch on with another team.

Nick Mullens QB | JAC
Jaguars' Nick Mullens: Status in question this week
Mullens (undisclosed) is unlikely to return to practice this week, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Coach Liam Coen provided the update on Mullens on Monday, and now it appears that the vet may not be available for the Jaguars' second preseason game Friday against the Panthers. Mullens went 3-for-7 for 33 yards and an interception in the preseason opener against the Saints. A Mullens absence would open more reps for Carter Bradley and Joey Aguilar.

Trevor Lawrence QB | JAC
Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Could play in Friday's contest
Coach Liam Coen is considering playing starters, a group that would include Lawrence, in Friday's preseason game against the Panthers, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Lawrence sat out this past Saturday's preseason opener versus the Saints, but the Jaguars' franchise QB could see some action Friday. In that scenario, Coen relayed that the team's starters may "get a couple drives potentially."

Tua Tagovailoa QB | ATL
Falcons' Tua Tagovailoa: Likely to sit out second preseason game
Tagovailoa is expected to be rested for the Falcons' second preseason game Saturday versus the Colts, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Back on July 31, Stefanski told Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the Falcons wouldn't play starters in the second preseason game, with members of the first-team offense and defense instead banking reps in joint practices with the Colts leading up to the exhibition. Stefanski doesn't seem to have deviated from that plan a few weeks later, as he mentioned Cooper Rush and Jack Strand as the possible starting options at quarterback for the matchup with Indianapolis when he spoke to the media Monday. Tagovailoa played two drives Friday in the Falcons' 27-7 loss to the Broncos in the preseason opener, and he's expected to take snaps again in the final exhibition game Friday, Aug. 28 versus the Dolphins. Tagovailoa is currently in pole position to open the regular season as the Falcons' starter under center, as Michael Penix (knee) remains limited to taking part in 7-on-7 drills during practices.

Caleb Douglas WR | MIA
Dolphins' Caleb Douglas: Exits Monday's practice early
Douglas (undisclosed) exited Monday's practice early, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
The rookie was seen walking off with trainers during Monday's session but later returned to the sidelines, at which point his day was done from a participation standpoint. The exact nature of Douglas' issue is unclear at this point, but his ability to return to practice this week will settle that. Douglas is one of several young Dolphins looking to make a splash in a revamped receiver room this season.
