Brooks, Hubbard to play against Bills
Key Points:
- Panthers running back Bijan Brooks faces an uncertain future due to multiple ACL injuries, but his return to football is gaining attention, potentially making him a sought-after backup in fantasy football by training camp.
- The Steelers signed linebacker Elandon Roberts to a one-year deal, bringing back a veteran presence to compete for playing time behind starters Patrick Queen and Payton Wilson.
- Panthers added tight end Darren Waller on a one-year contract; Waller offers veteran experience and could serve as a red zone target, positioning him as a low-end TE2 option in fantasy leagues.
- Seahawks running back Jadarian Price returned to practice after soreness, indicating a likely availability for Week 1 and providing positive news for fantasy managers.
- Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy, currently the backup to Kyler Murray, expressed his desire to remain with the team despite uncertain starting prospects, though a move away from Minnesota remains possible in the near future.
- Browns will start Deshaun Watson in their preseason opener, signaling his strong position in the quarterback competition, with Shedeur Sanders slated for the second preseason start.
- The 49ers signed running back Zamir White to bolster depth amid injuries, though he remains a long shot to make the final roster.
