North| AFC South | AFC WestNFC EASTDallas CowboysAs the Cowboys slow play their
approach for a backup quarterback, rookie fourth-round pick Dak Prescott will
take the second-team snaps when Tony Romo is available and the first-team snaps
when the veteran sits. The Cowboys like how Prescott has developed since joining
the team, especially coming from a spread offense. He needs to become more
accurate with his throws and make faster decisions, but coach Jason Garrett has
praised Prescotts presence and poise so far. Its doubtful the Cowboys will go
into the season with the rookie as Romos top backup, but?the Cowboys are pleased
with his development. -- Todd ArcherNew York GiantsRookie Sterling Shepard
continues to be the star of Giants training camp. Day after day hes making play
after play. The second-round pick made several big catches downfield on
Thursday. Already hes becoming a favorite of quarterback Eli Manning. Its
possible we could get to see Shepard, Odell Beckham Jr. and Victor Cruz work
together on Friday. Beckham is inching close to a return following a leg injury
suffered on Sunday. -- Jordan RaananPhiladelphia EaglesInjuries are suddenly an
issue for the Eagles as next weeks preseason opener approaches. Left tackle
Jason Peters (quad) and safety Malcolm Jenkins (hamstring) went down during
Thursdays practice. Guard Brandon Brooks (hamstring) and running back Ryan
Mathews (ankle) were hurt before practices began. That leaves the Eagles with
four starters injured; none appears to be major, but the team is still
shorthanded. -- Phil SheridanWashington RedskinsRedskins running back Matt Jones
didnt practice Thursday because of a sore knee, but he said hes fine and that
his legs just needed rest. Though the Redskins havent done any live hitting,
making it tough to get a feel for the backs, they have been pleased with Jones
improvement. He has been much better at knowing angles to take on runs, but a
big test this preseason will be his pad level through the hole and his ability
to hold on to the ball. -- John KeimNFC NORTHChicago BearsThe story at Bears
camp continues to be wide receiver?Alshon Jefferys minor hamstring injury, which
kept him off the practice field Thursday. Jefferys recent history -- he missed
seven games in 2015 with calf, groin, hamstring and shoulder problems -- makes
the development newsworthy, even though coach John Fox downplayed the severity
of Jefferys latest setback. The Bears have only three practices left in
Bourbonnais (they have?a workout scheduled at Soldier Field on Saturday),
meaning there is a chance Jeffery wont see more time there. The situation is
worth monitoring. The Bears want to be extra cautious here. The last thing
they?need is for Jefferys hamstring to linger. -- Jeff DickersonDetroit LionsThe
Lions defensive line has been one of the most impressive units in camp thus far,
particularly since the group continues to make plays even though it?cant take
guys to the ground. While that might change Saturday during the teams mock game
at Ford Field, a bunch of players on the first and second unit have consistently
made plays in individual drills and team periods. The player the Lions need a
jump from, though, is Devin Taylor. He has shown he can make big plays and will
have a larger role this season as a starter. The last eight games of the season,
six games, he made a ton of plays for us and showed up a significant number of
times, said Lions coach Jim Caldwell. Hopefully we can keep him on the same
trajectory. -- Michael RothsteinGreen Bay PackersThe Packers will not practice
on Friday. Instead, theyll have what coach Mike McCarthy calls their STAA
Program (Soft Tissue Activation and Application), which consists of massages,
yoga and other preventative maintenance designed to reduce the frequency of
muscle-pull injuries. Instituted in 2014, it has been a Friday staple during the
regular season ever since -- and McCarthy might want to take part, too, given
how he and other Packers staffers will be hustling to the Pro Football Hall of
Fame on Saturday evening. McCarthy said the Packers will have their normal
Saturday in-season practice before flying to Cleveland, where theyll land around
4:30 p.m. McCarthy, general manager Ted Thompson, quarterback Aaron Rodgers and
others will then bus from Cleveland to Canton to see Brett Favres induction
ceremony. I just found out thats a little longer ride than I anticipated,
McCarthy said of the 60-mile trek. -- Jason WildeMinnesota VikingsThe Vikings
continue their annual hunt to find a safety who can play next to Harrison Smith.
Andrew Sendejo has gotten the first look there, but Mike Zimmer said the Vikings
will take a longer look at Michael Griffin. If the Vikings find a safety that
can play center field, as Zimmer put it, they can do more with Smith in their
defense. -- Ben GoesslingNFC SOUTHAtlanta FalconsNow that veteran pass-rusher
Dwight Freeney has officially joined the Falcons, the question is, how many
snaps will he play when?the regular season begins? Falcons coach Dan Quinn said
it will depend on the opponent and situation, of course. The 36-year-old Freeney
is ready for whatever. I love the game and I love to play, Freeney said. Im one
of those guys youre going to have to pull me off the field. ... So if its 18
snaps, then its 18 snaps. If its 30 snaps, its 30 snaps. If its 45, 50, theyre
going to have to get me an IV, but Ill still go out there and then still play.
-- Vaughn McClureCarolina PanthersKeep an eye on defensive back Bene Benwikere
to see where he lines up when the Panthers hold their FanFest practice at Bank
of America in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Friday. Coach Ron Rivera penciled
Benwikere in as a starting every-down corner during the offseason, but Benwikere
began camp on PUP as he continued to rehab the fractured ankle he suffered late
last season. Benwikere returned to the field Wednesday, but?he?has spent most of
his time working at nickel where he played most of the past two years. He
actually worked with the third team at nickel a few times. -- David NewtonNew
Orleans SaintsThe Saints had a couple of physical, full-contact team periods in
Thursdays practice, something coach Sean Payton said will continue to pop up in
the coming days. Payton said thats one of the things the team wanted to do this
year instead of just saving up for a full scrimmage. They also have joint
practices scheduled with two different teams in the next two weeks (Patriots and
Texans) as Payton has tried to ramp up the competition and toughness in
practices. Rookie running back?Daniel Lasco and second-year defensive
tackle?Tyeler Davison are among those who have stood out in the physical drills
so far. -- Mike TriplettTampa Bay BuccaneersNo, Bucs backup quarterback Mike
Glennon wasnt traded, although his absence from practice Wednesday sparked quite
a frenzy. He and his wife Jessica on Tuesday night welcomed their first child, a
baby boy named Brady. In other news, coach Dirk Koetter has grown tired of
answering questions about Cameron Brate getting first-team reps over Austin
Seferian-Jenkins at tight end. If he had his way, Koetter said there would be no
open practices so he wouldnt have to answer questions like this every day. As
far as the tight ends, he said, Right now, Cam is playing better than Austin.
End of story, as far as Im concerned. What does Austin have to do? Play better.
-- Jenna LaineNFC WESTArizona CardinalsThursday was the first time the Cardinals
practiced this camp after having a day off and, by all accounts, the practice
picked up steam as it progressed. Coach Bruce Arians kept a close eye on
Thursdays proceedings, as did some of the players, because, as linebacker Alex
Okafor put it: Theres no time for that if we want to win the Super Bowl. Theres
no time for bad practices, especially after an off day. -- Josh WeinfussLos
Angeles RamsThe Rams had Thursday off after a late practice Wednesday, and a
couple of rookies started to show chemistry. No. 1 overall pick?Jared Goff and
wide receiver Michael?Thomas, a sixth-round selection, connected for completion
after completion including a few touchdowns. While neither has?cracked the
starting lineup yet, the pair gives the Rams a glimmer of offensive hope for the
future. -- ESPN.com staffSan Francisco 49ersThe 49ers continue to monitor the
quarterback competition between Colin Kaepernick and Blaine Gabbert. Kaepernick
finally pushed the ball down the field in Thursdays practice, hitting Torrey
Smith for a long touchdown. It could be a sign that hes feeling more comfortable
in Chip Kellys offense. Offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins echoed Kellys
sentiment that the quarterback competition will go on for awhile with preseason
games being key. The competitions kind of really just getting started, Modkins
said. Ive seen Kap from afar for a long time. Hes a good player, and I think hes
right on track. I think both those guys are really competing. Theyre both doing
a good job, so well just kind of see how it goes, and well probably know more
once the live bullets start going in preseason. -- Nick WagonerSeattle
SeahawksThe battles between the guys up front have been fun to watch every day.
The initial messaging, the defensive line and the offensive line have come out
to go after it, said coach Pete Carroll. Theyre getting after it. We need to be
a physical, tough football team to play the style that weve always played. We
have to recapture that when you come back to camp, and were off to a really good
start. Carroll threw Michael Bennett?out of practice after a skirmish Thursday.
And the coaches have been pleased with the way rookie offensive lineman Germain
Ifedi has stood his ground. This will be an area to watch throughout the
remainder of camp. -- Sheil KapadiaAFC EASTBuffalo BillsThe Bills will wrap up
their week of practice with a morning session Friday followed by an intrasquad
scrimmage Saturday evening. With some live tackling possible, the scrimmage will
be the first true opportunity to gauge where the running game and run defense
stand. Running backs?LeSean McCoy and Reggie Bush figure to each get a few
carries, while defensively, the performance of rookies Adolphus Washington and
Reggie Ragland?will be stories. -- Mike RodakMiami DolphinsThe Dolphins defense
continues to be ahead of the offense by winning most practices, but coaches say
its too early to be concerned. Offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen said the
offense is making a lot of deposits at once to push the limits. It may look ugly
at times now, but Christensen believes the group will click and find their
rhythm in time for the regular season. -- James WalkerNew England
PatriotsPatriots quarterback Tom Brady has declined interviews through the first
seven practices of training camp, but perhaps Friday will break the streak.
Brady has yet to speak publicly to reporters about his decision to not pursue
further legal action in his Deflategate appeal. As for practice itself, Brady
has been the last player to depart each of the last two workouts as he has been
putting in overtime. Among his activities: working with resistance bands,
holding planks and doing pushups. -- Mike ReissNew York JetsWith Matt Forte
(hamstring) expected to miss the first preseason game, and Khiry Robinson (leg)
still on the PUP list, the running-back reps will be divided among Bilal Powell,
Dominique Williams and rookie Romar Morris. Its a tricky situation because the
Jets?have to be careful not to overwork Powell in practice. The others are
bubble players, so it doesnt matter. The Jets say theyre not concerned about
Forte, yet. -- Rich CiminiAFC NORTHBaltimore RavensRavens backup quarterback
Ryan Mallett continues to struggle in camp. His biggest problem has been
accuracy. Hes throwing behind receivers and over their heads. This puts even
more pressure on the Ravens to make sure Joe Flacco is ready for the season
opener. Flacco has looked excellent despite coming off season-ending knee
surgery. Itll be interesting to see how much action Flacco sees in the
preseason. The Ravens could play it safe, sitting Flacco in the preseason opener
and playing him sparingly in the second one. The focus has to be getting?Flacco
to the regular-season opener as healthy as possible. -- Jamison
HensleyCincinnati BengalsIts all about patience in Bengals camp these days as
Cincinnati waits?for several key players to get back from injuries. One
important defender, linebacker Vontaze Burfict, already is easing back into the
mix after coming off the non-football injury list Thursday. That wasnt the only
good news from the day. Tight end Tyler Eifert began rehab on a side field as he
looks to come back from a May ankle surgery. Coach Marvin Lewis also believes
injured players Darqueze Dennard (ankle) and Tyler Kroft (knee) wont miss any
regular-season time. As the Bengals prepare for a simulated game Saturday, their
luck may be changing. -- Coley HarveyCleveland BrownsFriday will be an important
night for quarterback?Robert Griffin III, as coach Hue Jackson has a live
scrimmage scheduled at the teams practice facility. The scrimmage will provide
the first glimpse into Griffins development in Jacksons offense. Two other
players of note: wide receiver?Corey Coleman, who has looked very good in
practice, and running back?Isaiah Crowell, who looks quick and aggressive in the
new run-game system. -- Pat McManamonPittsburgh SteelersThe Steelers are not
messing around with rookie cornerback?Artie Burns. They are testing the
first-round pick?at every turn. They match him up with Antonio Brown early and
often in practices, and Burns has struggled much of the time.?Most corners would
in that situation. Brown got Burns on a double move at the goal line. Burns
issue, however, is more about experience than competitiveness. Burns responded
well with an interception in one-on-ones, sniffing out an underneath route with
ease. -- Jeremy FowlerAFC SOUTHHouston TexansWith the ball in his hands, Texans
rookie receiver Braxton Miller can be electrifying. Its getting the ball in his
hands that hes working on during training camp. Miller was a quarterback for
most of his career at Ohio State and only played receiver for one season.
Mastering the position is a learning process for the third-round pick, but he
feels his background helps in understanding his role. Said Miller: Coming from a
quarterback mentality from those years at Ohio State, studying the playbook and
learning the concepts, it comes pretty naturally for me. -- Tania
GanguliIndianapolis ColtsColts center Ryan Kelly?on Thursday missed his third
straight practice with a left shoulder strain. Coach Chuck Pagano will address
Kellys status Friday, but it would be surprising if the first-round pick out of
Alabama played in Sundays preseason opener against the Packers after missing so
many days of practice. This is the first setback Kelly has had after taking just
about every snap with the first unit during offseason workouts and the first
portion of training camp. Jonotthan Harrison has been working with the first
unit at center in Kellys absence. Harrison has started 19 games over the past
two seasons. -- Mike WellsJacksonville JaguarsThe Jaguars will hold their first
scrimmage on Friday, but it might?not include two key members of the offensive
line. Center?Brandon Linder is nursing a groin injury and Kelvin Beachum, who is
fighting for the starting spot at left tackle with Luke Joeckel, sat out the
last two practices. The Jaguars say Beachum?had knee soreness Wednesday and got
an additional day off Thursday. They are being very careful with Beachum, who is
coming off a torn ACL, because hes the favorite to be the left tackle. -- Mike
DiRoccoTennessee TitansJeremiah Poutasi said he got a little work in one team
period as the first-team left guard. Quinton Spain has been the starter. Coach
Mike Mularkey said Spain has been more hot than cold, but that his bad plays
have been doozies. When hes had his mistakes, theyve been pretty significant,
Mularkey said. I mean they stand out. Not getting out on some screens, not
covering up guys. Other candidates -- Poutasi, Brian Schwenke, Andy Gallik and
Sebastian Tretola -- may start to get rotated in sometime soon. -- Paul
KuharskyAFC WESTDenver BroncosBroncos coach Gary Kubiak has hinted at it before,
but Thursday he finally made it official. In the search for the teams starting
quarterback, how things go in the preseason games will have a big impact on who
gets the job. Kubiak is testing each quarterbacks knowledge and the ability to
get the team in and out of the huddle. He also wants to see how they handle
things at the line of scrimmage. But Kubiak put aside any thought that the team
would pick a starter without seeing the three -- Mark Sanchez, Trevor Siemian
and Paxton Lynch -- handle the business of a game. So, that could mean the
Broncos dont name a starter for another two weeks or so. -- Jeff LegwoldKansas
City ChiefsThe Chiefs expect new quarterback Nick Foles at practice for the
first time on Friday. Foles might need a refresher course, but he should be
familiar with Andy Reids offensive system. He played for Reid with the Eagles
for one season (2012), and Reid has a well-deserved reputation for helping
quarterbacks resurrect their careers.?-- Adam TeicherOakland RaidersFirst-round
draft pick Karl Joseph, who tore the ACL in his right knee last fall at West
Virginia and missed Oaklands offseason training program while rehabbing the
injury, sat out Thursdays padded practice for undisclosed reasons. The strong
safety had practiced every day prior to Thursday and spent much of the day
working with a trainer in the teams weight room. -- Paul GutierrezSan Diego
ChargersAfter three days of fully-padded practices, the Chargers will hit the
field in just helmets and jerseys on Friday as they get ready for Saturdays
FanFest at Qualcomm Stadium, the teams annual controlled scrimmage. Chargers
coach Mike McCoy praised the play of the receivers and defensive backs on
Thursday. Well be in shells tomorrow, so I wanted to make sure that I pushed
them today and have a championship level of play for an extended time today,
he?said. -- Eric D. Williams

ISLAND, Ga.Golden States NBA MVP Stephen Curry has suffered another injury and
is a doubt for the rest of the play-offs. Curry returned from an ankle injury in
Game Four of the play-off series between the Warriors and the Houston Rockets
only to slip on a wet spot on the court and suffer a knee injury. The Warriors
guard tested his knee on court at half-time but, on the advice of team doctors,
he did not return to the game as Golden State completed a 121-94 victory to take
a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.Curry, who missed the previous two games
in the Western Conference first-round series after spraining his right ankle in
the opener, is scheduled to have an MRI scan on his right knee on Monday.I just
feel awful for him, said coach Steve Kerr. Now hopefully hes going to be ookay
before not too long.
Air Max 97 Pas Cher France. We dont know.Hes
been healthy all year long and all of a sudden the play-offs start and a couple
of fluke things.Kerr said that Curry, the leagues leading scorer, who averaged
30.1 points, 6.7 assists and 5.4 rebounds during the regular season, had been
eager to return to the court for the third quarter.I said to him, Are you okay?
And he said, Im okay. I said, Are you sure? Youve got to be honest with us. And
he just put his head down and he knew, Kerr said.He knew it was not a wise thing
to do, to go out there. We had talked with the doctors about just seeing how he
felt, trying it out with a warm-up session. He went out there, tried to move on
it and it wasnt right.He still wanted to play and we wouldnt let him. You saw.
He was very upset.
