Bills | Stephon Diggs making impression
Buffalo Bills WR Stefon Diggs made an instant impression on QB Josh Allen when the two were able to work together recently in Florida. ‘It was very, very awesome to see just the amount of detail that he puts into his craft, how communicative he was, how willing he was to learn,’ Allen said of Diggs. ‘And he wasn’t there for himself. He was there for the betterment of the team and wanted to hang out with the guys and wanted to learn and get to know the guys and I thought that was pretty special. You hear all these crazy stories in the media, and I think he’s had a bad rep where he was at.’
Cardinals | Kyler Murray eyeing next level
Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray is ‘anxious’ to begin working with his reconfigured cast of offensive weapons, WR Larry Fitzgerald said on the team’s website. ‘Talking to (Murray), he loves being around us,’ Fitzgerald said. ‘He wants to take this to the next level and build on what he was able to accomplish last year, NFL Rookie of the Year. He’s got a lot of guys who want to play well for him, and he wants to do the same for us. Hopefully we will be able to do it here pretty soon.’
Steelers | John Battle a long shot
Pittsburgh Steelers S John Battle is a long shot to make the club, in the opinion of beat writer Chris Adamski.
Eagles | Jack Driscoll likely headed to center
Philadelphia Eagles OT Jack Driscoll is likely to be groomed as C Jason Kelce’s eventual successor.
Browns | CLE hasn’t looked past Jadeveon Clowney
Free-agent LB Jadeveon Clowney (Seahawks) is still an option for the Cleveland Browns, who haven’t given up on signing him, according to sources.
Broncos | Bradley Chubb likely for Week 1
Denver Broncos DE Bradley Chubb (knee) should be ready for the start of the regular season, according to defensive coordinator Ed Donatell.
Redskins | Dwayne Haskins still shedding weight
Washington Redskins QB Dwayne Haskins said he is down to 218 pounds after weighing 237 pounds at the start of last season. ‘I’ll be more dynamic,’ he said.
49ers | George Kittle productive in passing game
San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle caught 59 passes that resulted in either a first down or a touchdown during the 2019 season, which ranked second among tight ends.
Footballguys View: Kittle only missed two games after suffering a leg injury that looked like it would be worse than that, and he even finished the game. He’s hitting his peak and could overtake Travis Kelce to become fantasy’s #1 tight end this year. He’s worth the second-round pick it will likely cost to get him.
Chiefs | Travis Kelce made most of catches
Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce caught 71 passes that resulted in either a first down or a touchdown during the 2019 season, which ranked first among tight ends.
Footballguys View: Kelce is still the clear #1 tight end and will cost you a second round pick if you want him. George Kittle was closing in before getting hurt last year and should go soon after Kelce in fantasy drafts.
