Top NFL training camp storylines
How will Browns' quarterback competition end?
Joe Flacco appears to be the favorite, Kenny Pickett is a veteran with a shot, Dillon Gabriel was the higher of the two draft picks this past spring, and Shedeur Sanders is, well, Shedeur Sanders. Whoever wins, it'll be buzzy.
Aaron Rodgers, Jalen Ramsey join up with Steelers
Two of the biggest offseason additions happened in June, and the Steelers are counting on them to help lift the franchise higher than a first-round exit and into genuine Super Bowl contention.
Will Terry McLaurin get a new deal?
Terry McLaurin had his best season last year, and is now entering the final year of his current contract. But there's been little movement on an extension, despite McLaurin sitting out of minicamp in June to send a message. "I've been pretty frustrated, I'm not gonna lie," McLaurin said Tuesday. The question Washington must answer: How long will he stay that way?
What's up with contract extensions for Micah Parsons, T.J. Watt and Trey Hendrickson?
All three star pass rushers are in line for new paydays, and none of the deals are resolved yet. The Cowboys notoriously slow-play retaining their star talent, so while it feels like a Parsons deal will get done, the fact it hasn't is notable. Watt, meanwhile, might be starting the downside of his career, which makes it tricky for the Steelers. And the Bengals and Hendrickson are talking again, so there's that.
How will George Pickens incorporate with Cowboys?
Dak Prescott is hyped to throw to newly acquired wide receiver George Pickens, especially with CeeDee Lamb already in the same offense. Will we see early fireworks at camp and in preseason from this connection?
How will J.J. McCarthy look as Vikings QB?
After missing last year (on-field, at least) due to injury, J.J. McCarthy takes the reins as QB1 in Minnesota. Will the 2024 10th overall pick reward the faith of head coach Kevin O'Connell and general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, who let Sam Darnold walk this offseason? And if he doesn't, could a Kirk Cousins reunion be in line?
Saints have a QB competition of their own
Tyler Shough was taken in the second round this past draft. Spencer Rattler has a year of NFL experience under his belt, albeit under a different regime. Jake Haener has two, but hasn't done much to impress. Who will first-year head coach Kellen Moore hand the keys?
How will Jaguars use Travis Hunter?
The second overall pick of the draft has spent a majority of his time on offense this offseason, and has gotten defensive snaps when the daily plan called for it. We'll get more information on how the Jaguars will use him this month.
How soon can Jaxson Dart start?
Russell Wilson is QB1 with the Giants to start training camp. But first-round pick Jaxson Dart has prototype physical traits, and could push to begin his inevitable takeover of the job sooner than later.
Ben Johnson's first year with Bears, Caleb Williams
Chicago wanted an offensive mastermind to pair with its first overall pick from 2024. Ben Johnson is that guy, having helmed the Lions' prolific offense the past few seasons. What will he look like as a head coach with a talent like Williams?
Raiders' new-look offense gets installed
Geno Smith is the quarterback. Ashton Jeanty is the running back. Brock Bowers is arguably TE1 leaguewide already. Chip Kelly is the new offensive coordinator. The Raiders should be entertaining as hell on offense. We get our first true glimpses very soon.
When will Anthony Richardson return for Colts?
Head coach Shane Steichen hopes Anthony Richardson can be ready to resume on-field activities "at some point" during camp, while Richardson said he was "all good" at the end of June. If so, his camp battle with Daniel Jones for the starting job could be entertaining.
Sam Darnold takes over in Seattle
The Seahawks' $100(.5) million QB is the centerpiece of an overhaul that took place this offseason. Klint Kubiak will be calling plays, DK Metcalf is gone, and the offense as a whole will look different. The biggest piece will be Darnold, who can either prove the first 16 games last year were his real self — and not the last two.

Sparks center Cameron Brink says she's 'cleared' from ACL injury, will still ramp up before return
At long last, it looks like Cameron Brink's return is imminent. The Los Angeles Sparks center, who has missed 13 months while recovering from an ACL tear, said Saturday that she has been medically cleared and has started ramping up to a return. "I'm cleared. It's just getting reps at this point. Just getting back up to speed with everybody," Brink told reporters on Saturday ahead of L.A.'s game against the New York Liberty, via The Athletic's Ben Pickman. After months of sitting on the Sparks' injury report as "out," the second-year center was listed as "doubtful" for Saturday's game — raising some eyebrows about a potential return. Sparks head coach Lynne Roberts confirmed Saturday that Brink would not be playing, at least not yet. Despite not playing on Saturday, Brink was seen getting some shots up ahead of the game. In June 2024, Brink was carried off the court after suffering a knee injury during the Sparks' loss to the Connecticut Sun. The next day, the team confirmed that Brink had torn her ACL, and would be out for the season. "You never think it will happen to you," Brink wrote on Instagram after the injury was announced. "And despite all the hard work sometimes it does. This is hard to fathom, but I know it will only make me stronger." In addition to missing the rest of the 2024 WNBA season, Brink was also forced to the miss the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she had been named as a member of Team USA's 3x3 team. Sparks teammate Dearica Hamby joined in Brink's place, helping to lead the team to a bronze medal. Los Angeles has sorely missed Brink over the past year: The Sparks ended the 2024 season dead last with a 8-32 record. So far this season, they are 10-14, currently sitting in 10th place of 13 teams. Although L.A.'s offense has been much better this year — the Sparks currently average the third-highest points per game in the league — they have struggled on rebounds (third worst in the WNBA) and turnovers (second most).

Aaron Judge officially placed on injured list with flexor strain
Aaron Boone spoke to reporters following another New York Yankees loss on Saturday. The news was not good. He announced the slugger Aaron Judge would be heading to the injured list with a flexor strain. The only good news was that there was no UCL tear to the injury. With the loss on Saturday, the Yankees are now 56-48, and have fallen six games behind the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League East.

Phillies continue to hammer Yankees, Edmundo Sosa says he's fine after pop-up collision with Brandon Marsh
The hard-hitting Philadelphia Phillies delivered one blow that they could have done without Saturday during their 9-4 road win over the New York Yankees. In the bottom of the seventh inning, Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh accidentally rammed into the back of utility man Edmundo Sosa. Marsh, playing left, was jogging forward. Sosa, playing third base, was backpedaling. They both were going for the Jazz Chisholm Jr. pop-up in shallow left field. Marsh's right elbow appeared to drill Sosa in the back as Sosa made the putout. Sosa held onto the ball long enough to secure the catch before dropping it to the ground, rolling over and grabbing at his back. Marsh, on the other hand, came out of the collision OK. Sosa was down for a couple minutes while receiving attention from trainers. He eventually walked off the field and received a hug from a remorseful Marsh. Sosa patted Marsh on the back of the head. Sosa officially left the game with a back contusion, but he told reporters postgame that he's feeling better and is good to go for Sunday's series finale. Sosa's scare was hardly the injury headliner, though. Yankees superstar right fielder Aaron Judge missed the game with what was ultimately diagnosed as a flexor strain in his right elbow. Fortunately for Judge, the two-time AL MVP isn't dealing with a UCL tear and is expected to have a short stay on the IL. The Phillies were without their starting right fielder, too. Nick Castellanos sat out with a left knee injury that he suffered Friday while running toward the right field wall to make the final out of a 12-5, series-opening win over the Yankees. Castellanos' injury doesn't appear to be serious, as Phillies manager Rob Thompson said before the game that they'll check back on the veteran's knee for Sunday. Before Sosa exited, he deposited a two-run home run in the top of the seventh inning. The versatile 29-year-old launched a 424-foot no-doubter to center field. The night before, he helped the Phillies polish off another decisive win over the Yankees with an RBI single that ignited a four-run ninth inning. Sosa's homer Saturday was the Phillies' second big fly of the afternoon. Bryce Harper blasted a 425-foot solo shot in the third inning. Harper's smack to right center was part of Philadelphia's climb to a 4-0 lead through four frames. Then the Phillies distanced themselves in the seventh. Following Sosa's dinger, New York committed its 10th error in the past five games, this one resulting from a Chisholm bobble on a potential inning-ending, double-play grounder. Then surging slugger Kyle Schwarber drove home two runs with a double to center field. Schwarber now has five extra-base hits — including four home runs — and 10 RBI in his last four games. The Yankees faced a 9-1 deficit, having allowed at least seven runs for the fifth time in their eight games since the All-Star break. They scattered three runs of their own in the seventh and eighth innings, two from a Giancarlo Stanton long ball, but a massive comeback wasn't in the cards. Phillies starter Ranger Suárez improved to 8-4 after allowing just one run in 5 2/3 innings while striking out eight batters while issuing only one walk and throwing a season-high 108 pitches. But the bats were the star of the show for the Phillies, who have recorded double-digit hits three games in a row. Luckily for Sosa, the one he took to his back doesn't appear as consequential as his two-run homer in the seventh.
