Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Injury News
Zach Charbonnet (shoulder) returns to practice Thursday
Zach Charbonnet has returned to Seahawks practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
It was a positive sign for Charbonnet after he was previously sidelined with a shoulder injury. He still didn’t seem to have pads on, but it is a good sign nonetheless that he is back on the field. The rookie could earn some key first-team reps while Kenneth Walker (groin) remains sidelined.

Charlie Jones (arm) carted off field Thursday
Bengals WR Charlie Jones was laying down on the cart as trainers looked at his left arm during the end of practice.
Fantasy Impact
Jones was injured following a diving catch during 11-on-11 work. As a fourth-round rookie out of Purdue, he was having a solid camp before the injury. It is not known yet how much time he might miss.

Elijah Mitchell (adductor strain) expected to miss a week
49ers RB Elijah Mitchell has an adductor strain and will be out for about a week, according to Kyle Shanahan.
Fantasy Impact
It doesn’t appear to be too serious of an injury for Mitchell. He should be back at practice in the next week or two.

Javonte Williams (knee) expected to see some action in preseason
Broncos’ HC Sean Payton told reporters Thursday that RB Javonte Williams, who is coming off a torn ACL, is expected to play this preseason.
Fantasy Impact
Payton added that Williams might not play till the second preseason game. “I like how he’s progressing,” Payton said. This is huge news for Williams coming off tearing his ACL, especially given the history of running backs usually struggling the year after tearing their ACL.

NFL Training Camp Notes
Justyn Ross earning first-team reps in Chiefs camp
Justyn Ross has earned the praise of QB Patrick Mahomes who was quoted saying the former Clemson wideout is “a guy that I have a lot of hope for.”
Fantasy Impact
Ross was an UDFA in 2022 for the Chiefs after spending time at Clemson, and after he had some hype around him going into camp last year he received season-ending foot surgery before the preseason began. Now healthy, Ross has been earning first-team reps, and even more importantly he is making a rapport with Mahomes. In a wide-open KC receiver room, Ross has a chance to earn legitimate work in 2023. In deeper leagues, Ross may be worth a late flyer.

Treylon Burks learning new receiver spot
Ryan Tannehill said Treylon Burks is doing well learning a new receiver spot in Titans camp.
Fantasy Impact
This should allow Burks to remain on the field more following the Titans addition of DeAndre Hopkins. He will be one of the top players to watch in the preseason coming up.

Jameson Williams will not have elite hands, per Dan Campbell
Lions’ head coach Dan Campbell stated Thursday that Jameson Williams will “never probably be like one of these elite pass-catchers that you’ve seen, but it’ll be just fine with his speed.”
Fantasy Impact
Williams struggled with drops last season, tallying three drops in just six games. The 22-year-old has also struggled with drops and has been inconsistent throughout camp. With Williams set to serve a six game suspension, the team is going to give him plenty of reps in the preseason and fantasy managers will need to see more consistency from the speedy wide receiver.
