Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery left Wednesday's practice with a non-contact injury, but it looks like he avoided a worst-case scenario.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon was absent from Wednesday's practice, prompting concerns that the 24-year-old could be preparing to hold out. Mixon was at Monday's practice, though he sat out with a minor injury, so his complete absence on Wednesday is definitely a concern. We shouldn't just assume that Mixon is holding out for […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. is having "an outstanding camp," says John Oehser of Jaguars.com, who added that Chark "has the feel of a player ready to accelerate his development."

Houston Texans tight end Kahale Warring was a popular sleeper pick early in the offseason in 2019, but concussions led to him landing on the Injured Reserve, ending his season before it began.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Isaiah Coulter's "speed and fluidity" have stood out during training camp, says Aaron Reiss of The Athletic.

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: 2020 is going to be a tough year for rookies, and while Justin Jefferson will most probably end up as the strongest second option in Minny's offense by the end of the year, someone else might have a chance at getting significant snaps early in […]

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: People really just keep forgetting about Danny Amendola. No, seriously: he had an ADP of WR96 (243th overall) in 2019 and he's currently the WR104 with pretty much an "undrafted" label always attached to his name in 2020 drafts. I think the case for the […]

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: Washington's passing situation is obviously not great.
