Hey Fantasy Managers!
I’m back again - and today’s tip is a BIG one…
You need to be paying close attention to training camp news - so many nuggets to uncover here.
We are now 1 week into training camp and a lot has happened.
But don’t worry - I’ve got you covered.
Here are the 23 biggest pieces of news I’ve read about so far (only takes 2-3 minutes to read through!)
1. Kyren Williams is back sooner than expected and looks 100% in Rams camp
2. The Colts won't limit Anthony Richardson’s mobility as he comes off shoulder surgery
3. Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik calls Joe Mixon: “An absolute workhorse in every regard.”
4. Isiah Pacheco has worked with a WR coach all offseason to improve his pass-catching skills
5. Javonte Williams takes 1st reps in Bronco’s camp & has a great start to camp. Rumors of him being a cut candidate seem overblown based on this usage & how glowingly Sean Payton has talked about him...
6. Joe Burrow is fully cleared for contact to start Bengals camp.
7. The Chiefs are showing an emphasis to pass deep more often in camp
This makes sense given their new speedy additions in WRs Xavier Worthy & Marquise Brown…

He tore his MCL & ACL in Week 15 – his current timeline to return is late October at the earliest…
12. Titans coach Brian Callahan says both Tony Pollard & Tyjae Spears are starting players
He added he doesn’t view either as the starter or backup. Both players are solid targets in Round 8 & Round 9 of drafts…
13. Jameson Williams looks like ‘a different player from a year ago’
Williams will have a chance to start this season as the team didn’t bring in anyone to replace veteran WR Josh Reynolds…
14. Saints RB Kendre Miller is battling a hamstring injury with no current timeline to return

16. The Chargers starting WRs are currently Josh Palmer – Ladd McConkey & DJ Chark
