17 news updates you need to know before your league-mates catch on:

Hey!

NFL practices have started — and they’ve already been chaotic.

So much has changed in just a few days…

Here are 17 quick fantasy football updates to help you stay ahead:

Christian McCaffrey is fully participating in 49ers practices and looks healthy heading into camp. The last time he started a season healthy, he put up over 2,000 total yards…

Rashee Rice is back at Chiefs practice and fully participating off his knee injury. His ADP could swing fast — especially if he avoids a suspension…

Anthony Richardson re-injured his throwing shoulder last week. Same one that ended his rookie year. No timeline yet, and Daniel Jones is now getting more first-team reps…

Amon-Ra St. Brown had offseason knee surgery. He’s expected to be ready for camp…

Stefon Diggs is participating in Patriots OTAs just 7 months after tearing his ACL. He’s expected to be their WR1 — and was pacing as a Top 20 WR last year before injury…

CJ Stroud isn’t throwing right now due to general soreness. Minor concern for now — but monitor heading into training camp…

Jameson Williams continues to earn praise. Dan Campbell said he’s a guy the Lions “will lean on.” He topped 1,000 yards last year and ranked 6th in yards per reception…

Terry McLaurin is skipping OTAs due to contract frustrations. A holdout is possible if no deal is reached before camp…

Lions C Frank Ragnow retired. Detroit also lost G Kevin Zeitler. Ragnow was the #1 center in the league last year. This O-line is still elite — but those are two big losses…

Kyle Pitts is dealing with a foot strain and has drawn trade interest. He ranked just 22nd in yards per route run among TEs last season...

Shedeur Sanders has impressed at Browns camp. But don’t expect clarity soon — the QB job is still up for grabs between 3–4 guys…

JK Dobbins is visiting the Broncos. Denver could use a veteran back — and Dobbins ranked Top 10 in explosive run rate last season…

Cowboys Rookie RB Jaydon Blue is working with the 2nd team in Cowboys practices.
Worth tracking if he rises. Meanwhile, Javonte Williams continues to get 1st team reps — and is going in Round 11 of drafts…

Aaron Rodgers signed with the Steelers. Big upgrade for the offense — especially DK Metcalf and Pat Freiermuth

Michael Pittman limped off at Colts practice last week. Early reports say he avoided serious injury…

Jets rookie TE Mason Taylor is standing out in OTAs. He had 129 college receptions and could emerge as the No. 2 target behind Garrett Wilson…

RJ Harvey continues to dominate Broncos camp. He reportedly made the biggest play of Thursday’s practice…

Devaughn Vele is making noise in Denver. The Broncos’ WR2 job behind Sutton is wide open — Vele, Marbin Mims, and Pat Bryant are all in the mix…

See you tomorrow with another update.
