Injuries Pile Up Across the League

The training camp injury list grew significantly on Monday. Lions starting center Cade Mays will miss a significant amount of time with a wrist injury, coach Dan Campbell said. Saints guard Dillon Radunz is out for the season after suffering a torn ACL. Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III sustained a groin injury in Saturday's practice, and sources told ESPN that Burden is expected to miss the preseason but should be ready for Week 1 against Carolina. Commanders star left tackle Laremy Tunsil will undergo surgery for a torn triceps and is expected to miss significant time, a major blow to Washington's offensive line.

Key Signings and Retirement

The Patriots locked up a key offensive piece, signing tight end Hunter Henry to a two-year extension worth up to $20 million with $14.5 million guaranteed. The 31-year-old Henry remains a reliable target for New England. The Panthers added quarterback depth, signing former Buccaneer Kyle Trask as their QB3 after Haynes King suffered a hamstring injury in the Hall of Fame game. Meanwhile, veteran Teddy Bridgewater is retiring from the Lions again, per coach Dan Campbell. On the coaching front, Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy returned to the team Monday after a two-week absence following the shooting of his wife; his son Elijah, has been charged in the incident.

Coaching News and Superteam Analysis

49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan plans to coach the preseason opener against the Titans as he nears full recovery from last month's car crash. The New York Giants' experiment in West Virginia, their first summer under John Harbaugh, appears to be a success so far. In a broader analysis, Bill Barnwell examined whether NFL superteams actually deliver championships, focusing on the heavily favored 2026 Rams and noting that preseason darlings of the past 35 years have often failed to meet expectations.
