Carolina Panthers LB Julius Peppers (soreness) sat out of his second practice in a row Tuesday, May 30, due to soreness.

Free-agent SS Daimion Stafford (Titans) and LS Kameron Canaday (Steelers) were signed to undisclosed deals Tuesday, May 30. P A.J. Hughes was released.

Free-agent QB Thaddeus Lewis (knee) was medically cleared Tuesday, May 30, after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee in August.

Los Angeles Rams RB Lance Dunbar is a piece that head coach Sean McVay wants to establish in the passing game.

Footballguys View: Dunbar could play the Chris Thompson role in McVay’s offense. Last year for Washington, Thompson caught 49 passes for 349 yards and two touchdowns (along with 68 carries for 356 yards). Projecting 30 catches or so is not outlandish for Dunbar this year. At that rate of production, he wouldn’t be much of a fantasy factor in 2017.

Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley is likely to receive fewer targets in the passing game with the addition of RB Lance Dunbar. Gurley had his targets double from 26 in 2015 to 58 in 2016.

Footballguys View: An important note for fantasy owners here. Gurley is a better receiver than either Rob Kelley or Alfred Morris were for McVay in Washington, but it will be interesting to see if his targets go down. We think they should feed Gurley as much as they possibly can, but McVay wants to use Dunbar similar to the way he used Chris Thompson in Washington. Gurley has a current ADP of RB10 (2.08) in 12-team PPR leagues.

Detroit Lions FB Michael Burton was waived Tuesday, May 30.

Undrafted free-agent LB Zeek Bigger (East Carolina) was signed to an undisclosed three-year deal Tuesday, May 30, after a tryout. LB Alex Bazzie was waived.

Minnesota Vikings WR Adam Thielen said he is dedicated in proving his breakout performance this past season wasn’t a fluke. ‘I’m waiting until I’m done playing to reflect,’ Thielen said at the club’s organized team activities last week. ‘I’ve got too much to work on, too many big goals, to reflect on anything. I’m just going to come out here every day and try to get better and bring the same mindset I’ve brought since I got to the league.’

Dallas Cowboys CB Nolan Carroll was arrested for a DWI Monday, May 29.

New England Patriots CB Eric Rowe’s playing time in 2017 may depend on the opponent, in the opinion of ESPNBoston.com’s Mike Reiss. Rowe could see more playing time against taller receivers as well as certain tight ends.
