  • Josh Jacobs dealing with hamstring injury
    The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman reports Packers RB Josh Jacobs is dealing with a hamstring issue in OTAs.

    Advice: Jacobs is working through a hamstring issue as the Packers’ OTAs are underway. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur does not expect him to be sidelined long as Jacobs was limited in Tuesday’s workouts. Soft tissue injuries can linger but are not all that uncommon getting back into football workouts in the offseason. Jacobs also dealt with a quad strain that kept him out for a few games at the end of last season. No cause for concern with the hamstring issue just yet, but something to eye for Packers OTAs.

  • 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 34 minutes ago

  • Foot injury downplayed
    Williams, who is dealing with a foot injury that he sustained while training this spring, per Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register, won't take part in the Rams' offseason program, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Advice: That said, Barshop adds that coach Sean McVay has downplayed Williams' foot issue, noting that it's "nothing to worry about. He'll be ready to go for training camp." As the coming season approaches, the 2022 fifth-rounder remains atop the Rams' RB depth chart, with rookie third-rounder Blake Corum, Boston Scott, Ronnie Rivers and Zach Evans providing the team with backfield depth. Of the aforementioned backups, Corum could be the most notable threat to the 2024 workload of the 5-foot-9, 194-pound Williams. Rotowire.com Today, 2:56 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

  • Moves past foot issue
    Levis (foot) participated in 7-on-7 drills during Tuesday's OTA session.

    Advice: Back in February, Levis -- who was slowed by a foot injury late last season -- relayed that he was close to 100 percent at that time. At this stage, the second-year QB appears to have put the issue behind him, and on Tuesday Levis got in some work with the Titans' top wideouts, a group that includes free-agent additions Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd, along with returnees DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks. With veteran RyanTannehill no longer in the mix, Levis approaches the coming season as the team's clear-cut top QB, backed up by Mason Rudolph and Malik Willis. During his rookie season, the Kentucky product completed 149-of-255 passing attempts for 1,808 yards with eight touchdowns and four interceptions in nine starts. Rotowire.com Today, 2:33 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

  • Gets settlement
    Jackson (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve by the Giants on Tuesday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Advice: Jackson was waived with an injury designation by New York on May 10 and placed on IR after clearing waivers. He'll now have the opportunity to find a new team for the 2024 campaign once he can prove that he's healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 2:17 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
