  • Participating in OTAs
    Ruckert (concussion) took part in OTAs on Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Ruckert appeared in the first 15 games for the Jets last season, but he missed the final two contests due to a concussion he sustained in Week 16 against the Commanders. Ruckert served as the backup tight end behind Tyler Conklin, and the former finished the 2023 season with 16 catches on 22 targets for 151 yards while playing 301 snaps on offense and 205 snaps on special teams. Ruckert caught passes from quarterback Aaron Rodgers during seven-on-seven drills Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 6:25 pm

  • Back on field for OTAs
    Ezukanma (neck) participated in OTAs on Tuesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Ezukanma played in just two games at the beginning of 2023 before being placed on the reserve/non-football injury list in September due to a neck injury. He was cleared of his injury before the end of last season, and he admitted to reporters Tuesday that he was concerned that he would not be able to play again, per Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post. Ezukanma has appeared in three regular season games since the Dolphins drafted him in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, and he will battle for a spot on Miami's wide receiver corps for 2024.

  • Waived by Pittsburgh
    Harris (undisclosed) has been waived/injured by the Steelers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Advice: Harris signed a reserve/future contract with Pittsburgh in January. It is unclear what injury he is dealing with at this time. Assuming the does not get claimed off waivers, the pass catcher will presumably revert to the team's injured reserve. From there, his season will come to a premature end unless both he and the team can reach an injury settlement once his health is back up to par. Rotowire.com Today, 5:19 pm

  • Back on field
    Whyle (knee) participated in OTAs on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Advice: Whyle closed last season on injured reserve, but he was back on the field participating in practice as the Titans held offseason workouts. The 2023 fifth-round selection looked bigger and sturdier than last year, according to Wyatt. Rotowire.com Today, 2:37 pm

  • Participating at OTAs
    Jackson (ankle) practiced Tuesday.

    Advice: Jackson worked as the Titans' punt returner last season before he suffered a season-ending ankle injury Week 2 against the Chargers. Now healthy, he'll likely be competing with 2024 sixth-round selection, Jha'Quan Jackson for that role this season. Rotowire.com Today, 2:29 pm

  • Out until training camp
    Coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Kraft (pectoral) will be sidelined until at least the start training camp, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.

    Advice: LaFleur said Kraft and offensive lineman Zach Tom (pectoral) will both be out until at least the start of training camp, if not longer. The nature of Kraft's injury hasn't yet been disclosed, but he was spotted with his arm in a sling Tuesday and didn't practice. As a rookie, the 2023 third-round pick stepped up nicely in the wake of an injury to Luke Musgrave, also a 2023 draftee. He figures to handle a complementary role in Green Bay's tight end room when healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 12:59 pm

  • Photographer drops charges against Rashee Rice
    NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports the charges against Rashee Rice stemming from an alleged assault at a Dallas nightclub have been dropped.

    Advice: Per Pelissero, the photographer whom Rice allegedly struck at the nightclub has since told police that the incident was a misunderstanding. Rice is still facing multiple charges and a possible suspension for his involvement in a street race and car crash in April. Until the legal process plays out, it’s impossible to say how much time Rice will miss because of his actions. He is currently present for Chiefs OTAs this week. Rotoworld Today, 12:01 pm

  • On side field to start OTAs
    Williams (knee) has not yet been cleared for football activities and is working on a side field at OTAs on Tuesday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Advice: Williams went down to a left ACL tear in Week 3 last season while with the Chargers, so he was never a likely candidate to be ready for OTAs. The start of training camp in July could represent a better target for Williams, though the Jets haven't offered an official estimate for his return timeline. On the plus side, Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) is participating in OTAs without any setbacks, so Williams will be able to start building chemistry with his new quarterback as soon as he gains clearance. The big-bodied 29-year-old will complement top wideout Garrett Wilson as the No. 2 option for New York once healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 8:15 am
