Rams | Cooper Kupp avoids PUP list

Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (knee) was medically cleared Tuesday, July 23, and won’t be placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list ahead of training camp.

Footballguys View: Good news for Kupp here as he will not begin the season on the PUP list. He is targeting a return at some point in training camp and his Week 1 status seems good to go.

Falcons | ATL still working on Julio Jones’ contract

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones showed up to training camp under the promise of a new contract coming his way in the near future. General manager Thomas Dimitroff said Tuesday, July 23, it remains a work in progress. ‘We have the utmost faith that Julio is coming here and he’s taking care of his business while he’s here, and we’ll keep plugging away with (Jones’ agent) Jimmy (Sexton),” Dimitroff said. ‘… I’m confident (the deal) will get done.” Dimitroff acknowledged the possibility of Jones’ camp waiting to see what New Orleans Saints WR Michael Thomas signs for in a deal that could reset the receiver market. ‘I understand that, from a business standpoint,” Dimitroff said of waiting for the market to be set. ‘Do I agree with it necessarily? That’s not for me to argue about.’

Footballguys View: The Falcons have taken care of business with DT Grady Jarrett and LB Deion Jones so far this offseason. That leaves Jones as the next man up. He should get a contract that pays him as one of the top WRs in the NFL…again.

Chiefs | Andy Reid ready to move forward with Tyreek Hill

Kansas City Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill will be a welcome participant when full-squad training camp opens Saturday, July 27. ‘We’re comfortable with Tyreek coming back here and we look forward to bringing him back here and having an opportunity to get back to doing what he loves to do,” head coach Andy Reid said Tuesday, July 23. ‘We have the trust in Tyreek and we’re going to go forward in a positive way.’

Footballguys View: Hill is not being suspended by the league and the Chiefs are ready to move on. He’s a WR1 for Fantasy GMs as the top target for QB Patrick Mahomes. He should catch 80-plus passes once again in 2019.
