Titans' Treylon Burks suffers right shoulder injury during diving catch
He got up and immediately grabbed at his right shoulder. Burks then walked to the locker room with training staff.
Coach Brian Callahan said in a statement that Burks was being evaluated for a shoulder injury: 'We'll have an update on his status at the appropriate time.'
NFL Network reported that Burks broke his collarbone and will have more tests.
Burks was the Titans' first-round draft pick at No. 18 overall in 2022, a selection acquired by trading Pro Bowl wide receiver A.J. Brown to Philadelphia. Burks has been injured more often than not in his first three seasons out of Arkansas.
The 6-foot-2, 222-pound receiver has started 17 of 27 games played out of a possible 51 since being drafted. Burks has caught 53 of 94 passes thrown to him for 699 yards and one touchdown catch.
Burks was knocked out on that TD catch in Philadelphia in 2022 and missed the next two games. He was carted off the field with a concussion in 2023 after trying to make a leaping catch late in a blowout loss to Pittsburgh.
He started training camp healthy and in good shape after being placed on injured reserve last October with a partially torn ACL.

Jets' Quinnen Williams leaves practice after tweaking calf, Braelon Allen sits out with sore knee
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams left practice early Thursday after tweaking a calf muscle. Williams was participating in individual drills when he felt discomfort in his lower leg. He walked into the facility under his own power, but sat out the rest of the practice session. There was no immediate update from the Jets on Williams' injury or if he might miss any time. Coach Aaron Glenn wasn't scheduled to speak to reporters until Friday morning after practice. The 27-year-old Williams is a key part of New York's defense and a three-time Pro Bowl selection who was also an All-Pro during the 2022 season. He had six sacks last season, giving him 39 for his career since being drafted with the third overall pick in 2019 out of Alabama. Williams anchors a new-look D-line for the Jets, who also have Micheal Clemons, Will McDonald, Rashad Weaver, Jay Tufele, Derrick Nnadi, Byron Cowart and youngsters such as Payton Page, Leonard Taylor and Eric Watts competing for spots. Second-year running back Braelon Allen missed his second consecutive practice with soreness in his left knee. Allen, who ran for 334 yards and two touchdowns last season as a complement to Breece Hall, was having a standout camp before the knee issue. Glenn said Tuesday the Jets held him out that day since the team had off Wednesday and that would give Allen two days to rest 'and then we will reevaluate as we go forward and see when he will be available for practice.' Allen spent Thursday on the sideline with his left leg in a sleeve. Good Folk Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Nick Folk, reunited with the Jets after signing Wednesday, had a perfect practice debut. The 40-year-old kicker, who played for the franchise from 2010 through 2016, made all six of his field goal attempts during practice. He's competing with Harrison Mevis, who missed two of his six tries. Folk, nicknamed 'Folk Hero' by former coach Rex Ryan for his penchant for making big kicks, looked right at home back in New Jersey except for one thing: his jersey number. After wearing No. 2 throughout his previous stint with the Jets, Folk is wearing No. 18 this time around because backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor is wearing No. 2. ___ AP NFL:

Maddy Siegrist set to return for Wings after missing 17 games with knee fracture
DALLAS (AP) — Maddy Siegrist is set to return for the Dallas Wings after missing seven weeks with a fracture in her right knee. Siegrist will be available for Friday night's game against the Indiana Fever at the home of the Dallas Mavericks, the team said Thursday. It's the second time the Wings will play at American Airlines Center. They faced the Fever there in late June, losing 94-86 when Caitlin Clark was sidelined by a groin injury. Clark returned after that but has missed the past five Indiana games with the same injury. Siegrist, the NCAA Division I scoring leader ahead of Clark when she played for Villanova in 2022-23, has missed the past 17 games with the knee injury. Injuries limited her to 11 games as a rookie two years ago. Siegrist has averaged 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds in 11 games and had her only double-double of the season with 15 points and 11 boards the game before she was injured, an 81-65 loss to Minnesota on June 8. ___ AP WNBA:
