B. Bulaga - OT

LAC

Coach Matt LaFleur believes Bulaga had a 24-hour flu bug, and the lineman is feeling better, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Bulaga was active for the divisional-round win over the Seahawks, but he didn't play a snap due to his illness. LaFleur doesn't seem concerned about Bulaga's status for Sunday's NFC championship versus the 49ers, and that will be confirmed if the lineman is able to practice Wednesday.

S. Beal - DB

NYG

Giants CB Sam Beal opted out of the 2020 season.

Beal will receive the NFLPA agreed upon salary and is ineligible to return in 2020. Beal spent most of last season on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. He'll be competing for a final roster spot during the 2021 offseason when he returns.

P. Williams - WR

MIA

Miami Herald's Barry Jackson and Adam Beasley report the Dolphins are "cautiously optimistic" Preston Williams (ACL) will be ready for Week 1.

Williams was cleared for football activities earlier in August, but the team is reportedly taking Williams along slowly, likely because there's no reason to rush him back with the Dolphins still building for the future. In fact, their report says, "There’s no assurance he will be deemed ready for Week 1." Consider Williams questionable for the first few weeks of the season, but when healthy, Williams is an intriguing fantasy asset. He led the Dolphins in targets and receiving before his torn ACL ended his rookie season last year.

R. Gregory - DL

DAL

Suspended DE Randy Gregory asked the NFL to speed up their reinstatement decision.

Gregory went to social media to indirectly ask commissioner Roger Goodell to make a decision regarding Gregory's 2020 season. He claims to be doing everything right off the field, including getting his mind and body ready for another chance in the league. Gregory notes that the COVID-19 pandemic has hurt his process but hopes that a decision can be made as soon as possible. The Cowboys have "all but given up hope" on Gregory, according to the Fort Worth-Star's Clarence Hill. He'd be a nice addition to a depleted Dallas defense if he can get cleared.

S. Diggs - WR

BUF

Bills restructured Stefon Diggs' contract.

Buffalo will give Diggs $3.3 million more in 2020 while reducing some of his salary in the later years of his contract. It's an insignificant move for Diggs' short- and long-term outlook with Bills. For fantasy purposes, Diggs needs to get better deep-ball accuracy out of Josh Allen to reach his ceiling. They've been working together this offseason -- that, of course, includes playing video games together -- and expect to have chemistry in 2020 despite limited in-person practices. Diggs will likely be a fantasy WR3 who has a handful of boom and bust weeks. Stacking Allen with Diggs has been a common strategy in bestball formats this summer.

E. Cleveland - OL

MIN

Twin Cities' Chris Tomasson reports second-round OT Ezra Cleveland is a candidate to start at right guard.

Cleveland received first-round buzz throughout the 2020 NFL Draft process after posting two-straight first-team All-Mountain West honors at Boise State. He also showcased 91st-percentile athleticism at the underwear olympics in Indianapolis. Given the offseason, Cleveland may be better off inside at guard instead of being put on an island against the league's best pass-rushers. Cleveland still has long-term upside at left tackle.

A. Patton - WR

LAC

Cardinals signed WR Andre Patton, formerly of the Chargers.

Patton was the third receiver in Los Angeles last season, but he finished with just six receptions across 13 games. Given Arizona's depth at receiver, Patton faces an uphill battle to make the team and certainly to crack the starting rotation even if Kliff Kingsbury utilizes four-receiver sets more than the 31% clip he used in 2019. Patton's signing shouldn't affect Andy Isabella or Hakeem Butler's dynasty stock.

K. Brice - DB

CHI

Cardinals signed S Kentrell Brice, formerly of the Packers, to a one-year contract.

Brice needs to pass a physical and the COVID-19 testing, but assuming that happens, he will be projected to make the roster as a depth piece in a secondary that struggled defending the tight end in particular last season. Brice needs to showcase special teams ability to guarantee a spot on the roster.

L. Bell - RB

NYJ

Jets coach Adam Gase said Le'Veon Bell is "extremely motivated" and is in "phenomenal shape."

Gase and Bell haven't exactly seen eye to eye, so the fact that Gase is this supportive of his back carries some weight. Gase also said Bell has "been working extremely hard and he looks really good." This lines up with The Athletic's Connor Hughes report that Bell has been "training like a mad man" this offseason. Bell needs to get back on track in 2020 after missing the 2018 season and then only averaging 3.2 yards per carry last year. The additions to the offensive line and Bell's offseason work outs suggest a bigger year could be in store for Bell, who is being viewed as a low-end RB2 in fantasy drafts. Bell projects for another 300 touches, but it may not matter much if the Jets offense doesn't improve in general.

J. Hill - RB

Raiders released RB Jeremy Hill.

Hill was signed on July 31, so his stint with Gruden was essentially a vacation to Las Vegas. The Raiders running back depth chart is quietly very deep, and there basically was no room for Hill to crack the roster immediately. Hill may land another opportunity with coronavirus likely meaning veterans like Hill will be on-call for spot game-day activations. Hill needs to prove that he's healthy following an ACL tear.

R. Jones - RB

Coach Bruce Arians said Ronald Jones is the "main guy" in the Bucs' backfield.

Arians said everyone else -- LeSean McCoy, Dare Ogunbowale, Ke'Shawn Vaughn -- is fighting for roles. Vaughn remains on the COVID-19 list and is falling behind, even in the early stages of camp. We've already seen videos of third-down back Ogunbowale catching passes from Tom Brady, and Arians said McCoy should "find his niche easily." Jones should handle the bulk of the early-down work, but we're not expecting him to catch many balls. Jones will likely struggle to produce top-25 numbers in fantasy among running backs.

M. Golden - LB

NYG

Giants re-signed DE Markus Golden to a one-year contract.

It's worth up to roughly $5.1 million. Golden was looking for a multi-year deal in free agency but never found it and was slapped with the "UFA tender" by the Giants. It's rarely used, but the G-Men pulled it out on Golden to get him back on the team. Golden produced 10 sacks for the Giants last season, the second-most of his career. Now 29, Golden will be a key figure in new DC Patrick Graham's defense as the unit's top edge rusher.

A. Hooper - TE

CLE

Austin Hooper said he spent 2-3 weeks in Austin, Tex. at Baker Mayfield's house working out together this offseason.

Signed to a four-year, $44 million pact in March, Hooper immediately got to work with his new quarterback. It should give Hooper a nice leg up on things in terms of chemistry with Mayfield. If Jarvis Landry (hip) misses any regular-season action, Hooper could be a nice volume hog in the middle of the field. Hooper is currently coming off the board as the TE9 in half-PPR drafts, sandwiched between Tyler Higbee (TE8) and Jared Cook (TE10). Hooper's outlook isn't as promising as it was in Atlanta.
