Simmons was seen participating in the Chiefs' minicamp Friday, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports. Simmons ' attendance was poor throughout his rookie season. The 2025 first-round pick missed multiple games due to personal issues, only to be ruled out for the remainder of the season with a wrist injury after a brief return. The left tackle is back on the field for minicamp and appears ready to protect Patrick Mahomes for a full NFL season.
Cosmi was photographed participating at Commanders OTA's on Friday. Cosmi was placed on injured reserve in late December last season with a concussion. The guard's presence at OTA's shows he is back in the fight and ready to start the season at right guard as expected.
Strong (neck) reverted to the reserve/non-football injury list Friday. Strong had a productive rookie season, putting in reps at outside cornerback throughout the first four weeks of the 2025 season for the Bills before he suffered a career-altering neck injury. The sixth-rounder out of Ohio State was seen at OTAs, but will not have a chance to play in 2026 due to the severity of the neck issue. Strong cleared waivers, allowing the Bills to maintain him for the time being, and he will have to look toward the 2027 season for a return to NFL play.
Reid (undisclosed) reverted to the Bills' injured reserve list Friday after being waived Thursday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. The undrafted running back from the University of Pittsburgh will have to miss the entire 2026 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Bills. Reid played in seven games during his senior season at Pitt, recording 278 rushing yards and two touchdowns over 60 carries. He also caught 23 receptions for 317 yards and two touchdowns.
Leonard battled with Anthony Richardson in 11-on-11 practice throughout mandatory mini-camp and still has a chance to seize the backup role, Joel A. Erickson of the IndyStar reports. Starting quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) remains unavailable for team drills. Leonard and Richardson have competed heavily for control of the starting offense in his absence. Head coach Shane Steichen said there is currently no clear winner, and both quarterbacks will continue to battle it out for potential snaps as Jones works his way back from the Achilles injury that derailed the Colts' 2025 season.
Coach Andy Reid noted Thursday that Worthy (shoulder) looked good at this week's minicamp, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports. While Worthy (who is in the final stages of his recovery from a shoulder procedure he underwent in January to repair his labrum) sported a no-contact jersey during the minicamp which concluded Thursday, his efforts nonetheless caught the eye of Reid. "Xavier really had a nice camp," Reid said of the 2024 first-rounder. "Stronger -- that's the part that you like. You really see it. We put him in a lot of the primary positions, and I thought he did a nice job with all of it." Next up for Worthy and the Chiefs will be training camp next month, at which point he may be able to shed his non-contact jersey. He's coming off a 2025 regular season in which he recorded a modest 42-532-1 line on 73 targets through 14 contests, but Worthy acknowledges that the shoulder injury he sustained on the first drive of the campaign hampered his effectiveness. Assuming no setbacks ahead of Week 1, Worthy could be poised for a bounce-back season in 2026 while working as a key option in Kansas City WR corps that is also in line to feature fellow returnee Rashee Rice (knee), with the likes of Tyquan Thornton, Jalen Royals and Cyrus Allen in the mix as well.
Strange said Thursday after the Jaguars' final mandatory minicamp practice that his second year in head coach Liam Coen's system feels "a lot less chaotic" despite being asked to line up in "a lot more positions," Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union reports. "It's just a lot of position changes for me," Strange said, "but I want that. It's a good responsibility to have." The 2023 second-round pick enters the final year of his rookie deal as Jacksonville's clear No. 1 tight end, despite the additions of rookies Nate Boerkircher and Tanner Koziol to a crowded room that also includes veterans Hunter Long and Quintin Morris. Jacksonville's offense figures to lean heavily on multi-TE formations in 2026, but Strange's versatility will help him remain productive even if targets are spread around at the position. He posted a career-best 46-540-3 receiving line in just 12 regular-season games last year and remains one of the league's better blocking tight ends. Though he's eligible for an extension, Strange said his "mind's not on that at all" Thursday when asked about contract talks.
