Adam Vinatieri activated from PUP list

The Kansas City Chiefs received encouraging news Friday morning as rookie wide receiver Cyrus Allen returned to practice after missing nearly a week with a shin injury.

Allen, a fifth-round draft pick, had quickly become one of the biggest standouts of Chiefs training camp before suffering a shin bruise during Saturday’s practice at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph.

Allen was one of Kansas City’s biggest early-camp standouts, earning first-team reps and developing an apparent rapport with Patrick Mahomes before the injury. His quick return allows him to resume competing with Tyquan Thornton, Jalen Royals and others for a depth role. Allen remains a deep fantasy dart throw, but his combination of training-camp buzz and attachment to the Chiefs offense makes him worth monitoring.

Jeff Hafley reaffirms the Dolphins’ patient approach with rookie WR Chris Bell

He said they don’t want to rush him back to a point where he suffers a setback early in his career. Still not establishing a timeline for his return.

“But he looks good though, right?”

Bell has generated plenty of fantasy buzz, but his extended absence is costing him valuable opportunities to establish a role in an unsettled Dolphins receiver room. Hafley’s positive assessment is encouraging, though Bell will remain more of a deep league late-round upside selection until Miami provides a return timetable and he begins receiving consistent practice reps.

TE Ja'Tavion Sanders is playing tonight after an ankle injury. Back-to-back catches to start the game.

Sanders seeing immediate involvement is encouraging after last year’s season-ending injury, but Carolina’s pass-catching competition remains open. Sanders is currently TE45 and No. 246 overall in the 4for4 rankings, putting him firmly in deep-league territory.
