SF - Jimmie Ward will miss the first 4 games on IR
KC - Rookie CB Trent McDuffie placed in concussion protocol
BUF - rookie P Matt Araiza has had a civil suit filed against him as part of a gang rape charge. Due to this happening before he was drafted he won't be under NFL policies, and he is denying all charges
NYG - claimed WR Bailey Gaither off of waivers from Ravens, but have since waived him with a failed physical designation
CIN/LAR - had quite a few fights, but one in particular has video of DT Aaron Donald taking a Bengals Helmet and swinging it like a hammer. Per sources the League can't go after the players in practice as that falls under team jurisdiction, but per a report on PFT, the league CAN go after the Rams if they can show the team didn't control the situation well.
NYJ - Denzel Mims and his agent have requested a trade.
BAL - No Lamar Jackson this week for Ravens
NE - Patriots release CB Malcom Butler off of IR
LVR - reports out that the team could do any of multiple things with OL Alex Leatherwood - leave him at tackle, move him to guard, release him, trade him. Not doing real great this pre-season
SEA - RB Rashaad Penny tests positive for Covid
WAS - HC confirmed that RB Antonio Gibson will be main K returner
