[WAS - QB duo to compete for starting job](=) Source: The Washington Post - Sam Fortier Washington Commanders QBs Sam Howell and Jacoby Brissett will compete for the starting job, according to head coach Ron Rivera. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Brissett has the experience, and he's fine as a starting option. If he can have a Geno Smith-like breakout then perhaps the Commanders are onto something. We like the idea of Howell getting the job. He flashed last year in one start, and there was a time when Howell was highly regarded in the scouting community. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [LVR - Josh Jacobs still not with team]() Source: NFL Network - Omar Ruiz Las Vegas Raiders RB Josh Jacobs has yet to sign the franchise tag and is not participating at mandatory minicamp, according to head coach Josh McDaniels. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Jacobs and the Raiders have until July 15th to get a long-term deal done. Things get done at deadlines, so there's about a month left when a contract can be agreed upon. After that, we're looking at a training camp holdout. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [LAC - Justin Herbert to practice this week]() Source: ProFootballTalk.com - Myles Simmons Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert (shoulder) said he plans to participate in seven-on-seven drills during practice this week. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] This is all a good sign that Herbert will be fully participating come training camp. This was an injury to his non-throwing shoulder, so Herbert's Week 1 status should not be in question. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [NO - Michael Thomas will be a full-go for camp]() Source: NewOrleans.Football - Mike Triplett New Orleans Saints WR Michael Thomas (foot) told reporters Tuesday, June 6, that he will be ready for training camp 'day one, full speed.' [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] We'll believe it when we see it. Thomas had some hardware removed from his foot back in May, and Saints HC Dennis Allen has previously stated that Thomas would be ready when camp starts in August. The news has been positive, but with his injury history we'll just wait to see what happens.

[JAX - Jacksonville not pursuing DeAndre Hopkins]( Source: Jacksonville.com - Demetrius Harvey Free-agent WR DeAndre Hopkins (Cardinals) will not be an option for the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to head coach Doug Pederson. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Jaguars made the move to trade for WR Calvin Ridley last year, and he's set to be their no.1 receiver. Hopkins wants to go to a contender, and the Jaguars fit that bill, but it sounds like they're good with Ridley, Zay Jones, and Christian Kirk at the position. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [BAL - Laquon Treadwell ready to call Baltimore home]() Source: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero Free-agent WR Laquon Treadwell (Seahawks) reportedly agreed to terms on an undisclosed contract with the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, June 5. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Ravens continue adding talent to the wide receiver position. However, at this point in his career, Treadwell is nothing more than veteran depth. In fact, there's a chance he doesn't make the 53-man roster coming out of training camp. The Ravens have O'dell Beckham Jr and Rashod Bateman as their top two receivers and rookie WR Zay Flowers is going to work his way into the mix. Nelson Agholor, James Proche, and Devin Duvernay will compete with Treadwell to round out the depth chart. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 7. [MIN - DeWayne McBride under contract]( Source: Vikings.com Minnesota Vikings seventh-round draft choice RB DeWayne McBride (Alabama Birmingham) signed a four-year contract Tuesday, June 6. Financial terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] McBride is a favorite of ours in super deep dynasty formats. He's an attacking runner with a style that is relentless. McBride is a downhill runner and he's decent as a receiver. He does not have long speed, and it takes time for him to gather himself after cutting, so give him a lane and watch him go.

[BAL - Gus Edwards eyeing return for camp](=) Source: The Athletic - Jeff Zrebiec Baltimore Ravens RB Gus Edwards (undisclosed) is currently rehabbing an injury but should be ready for the start of training camp, according to head coach John Harbaugh on Tuesday, June 6. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Edwards is a veteran back, so the team won't rush him through this undisclosed injury. Earlier this year, Edwards agreed to take a $1 million pay cut from the $4.384 million he was set to earn in 2023. He'll be the no.2 back behind J.K. Dobbins and continue to get short-yardage and goal-line work. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 9. [NE - Malik Cunningham taking some reps at receiver](=) Source: AtoZ Sports - Doug Kyed New England Patriots QB Malik Cunningham is getting some work at receiver in addition to quarterback, according to head coach Bill Belichick. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] No surprise here. Cunningham is incredibly athletic, and he can make defenders miss in the open field as a runner. It makes sense to see where his athleticism can best be used. Cunningham is competing with Trace McSorley for the third spot on the depth chart at the QB position behind Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe.
