  • Harbaugh: Henry will maintain heavy workload
    Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Derrick Henry will continue to have a big backfield workload in 2024.

    Advice: Asked by reporters if Henry would see similar usage to what he saw in Tennessee, Harbaugh said, “We do. I mean, I watched the wear and tear that he put on defenses” during his time with the Titans and the team intends to use the Big Dog similarly in his first year with the Ravens. Even if Henry doesn’t see the gaudy rushing attempt totals he had as a Titan, he should be a more efficient ball carrier in a Baltimore offense that ranked as one of the NFL’s best in 2023. Rotoworld’s Denny Carter this week in Henry’s offensive environment from 2023 to 2024. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:17 am

  • Reports for minicamp
    Kamara (ankle) participated in the initial practice of the Saints' mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Advice: Kamara wasn't present for most of the team's offseason program, but his presence this week indicates he's healthy after missing Week 18 of last season due to an ankle injury. While he managed to surpass 1,000 yards from scrimmage for the seventh consecutive campaign in 2023, his 1,160 yards marked the lowest total of his career, partly due to him missing the first three games of the campaign due to a suspension. He'll again have to contend with Jamaal Williams and even Taysom Hill for short-yardage and goal-line work, but Kamara doesn't have much competition for reps otherwise. He's poised for a busy role in New Orleans' new-look scheme under offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:09 pm

  • Back to all activity
    Jacobs (hamstring) took part in Tuesday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

    Advice: Jacobs missed the first week of Packers OTAs due to a hamstring injury, but he was back on a limited basis by the second week before logging time with the first-team offense during the first session of mandatory minicamp this week. On Tuesday, he displayed his agility during early drills while also working on his pass protection, per Wood. Jacobs arrived in Green Bay this offseason on a four-year, $48 million contract, effectively replacing Aaron Jones as the team's top running back. The Packers then re-signed AJ Dillon and added MarShawn Lloyd in the third round of this year's draft to provide depth behind Jacobs, who averaged 20.6 touches per game in his five seasons with the Raiders.

  • Not practicing at minicamp
    Hall (lower body) won't practice Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Hall missed some OTA practices in May and now will sit out the first day of June minicamp. There's been no indication of a serious injury, but it'll be something to keep an eye on ahead of training camp in late July. With Hall absent Tuesday, rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis should have opportunities to work with the first-team offense as they continue their competition for the No. 2 running back role.

  • Austin Ekeler returning kicks at WAS minicamp
    Austin Ekeler was seen returning kicks during Commanders minicamp.

    Advice: Ekeler hasn’t returned kicks since 2017 with the Chargers, when he had five returns for 85 yards. It would be surprising if the Commanders used Ekeler as a kick returner as he enters his age-29 season, though the league’s new kickoff rules could lead to teams using more important players on returns in 2024 and beyond. Ekeler’s return usage will be something to monitor in minicamp and during the team’s training camp next month. He’s expected to split backfield duties with Brian Robinson. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:39 am
