Hall of Fame Weekend

The 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame class was officially enshrined, with Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald and Luke Kuechly entering the Hall of Fame during Saturday’s ceremony. Adam Vinatieri drew plenty of laughs and cheers by poking fun at Bill Belichick, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in his speech. New inductee Roger Craig revealed he has been diagnosed with vascular dementia during his taped acceptance speech. A deeper look at Fitzgerald's college career at Pitt shows why he was a transcendent receiver. Meanwhile, the Hall of Fame debate continues for Russell Wilson, whose strong start has been complicated by a rough end to his career.

Injury and Health News

Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III left practice Saturday with an apparent lower-body injury after tangling with Tyrique Stevenson. Ravens wideout Zay Flowers is considered day-to-day after suffering a left quad contusion that could sideline him briefly. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes says his rehabbed knee feels great and he sometimes doesn’t even think about it during practice. On the sideline, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan intends to coach the preseason opener against the Titans as he nears full recovery from last month’s car crash.

Camp and Roster Moves

The Raiders held Kirk Cousins and Maxx Crosby out of practice for disciplinary reasons stemming from their fight on Friday. The Titans made a massive commitment to their offensive line, signing guard Peter Skoronski to a four-year, $100 million extension that makes him the highest-paid guard in the NFL. The Saints added veteran linebacker Deion Jones on a one-year deal, his fourth NFC South team. In Philadelphia, new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion says the Eagles will continue to lean into the Tush Push in their offense.

For fans planning ahead, the full preseason schedule is available on NFL Network and ESPN. Fantasy managers should also check out 10 potential sleepers identified by Matt Bowen and Tristan H. Cockcroft who just need an opportunity. Finally, Bill Barnwell went roster by roster to project future Hall of Famers on every NFL team.
