With players beginning to practice, there will be updates daily to this 2025 Fantasy Football Training Camp Stock page for any news in the meantime.
If there’s an injury or a player surprising/disappointing, I’ll let you know about it and adjust my 2025 Fantasy Football Rankings accordingly. Follow me @walterfootball for updates.
July 11
Mike Evans, WR, Buccaneers 
Tristan Wirfs will be sidelined at least a couple of weeks during the regular season. While this won’t make or break Mike Evans’ 2025 campaign, it could ding him a bit in the first couple of weeks if Baker Mayfield’s pass protection is diminished. I was already down on Evans, so I had no interest in him at his ADP anyway.
Quinshon Judkins, RB, Browns Jerome Ford is the favorite to start for the Browns early in the season, according to the Athletic. This is obviously a bearish report for Quinshon Judkins, which can serve as a reminder to be careful with rookies in the early rounds.
Christian Kirk, WR, Texans 
Christian Kirk has been a safety blanket for C.J. Stroud in mini-camp, according to an ESPN report. While this is a nice story, it won’t have much relevance for Kirk in fantasy football. More significantly, it could be harmful for Jaylin Noel.
Brashard Smith, RB, Chiefs The Chiefs “have plans” for Brashard Smith, according to an ESPN report. This means using him in the slot, apparently. Smith won’t have much value unless Isiah Pacheco gets hurt, but there’s a chance that Pacheco won’t be 100 percent.
Dont’e Thornton, WR, Raiders Dont’e Thornton has made a strong case to be a Day 1 contributor for the Raiders, according to an ESPN report. Thornton has been running with the first-team offense, so he’s being asked to step up as a rookie.
June 30
De’Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, RB/WR, Dolphins Jonnu Smith consumed 111 targets and caught 88 passes as a member of the Dolphins last year. Those targets have to go somewhere, and it won’t be to a tight end because the Dolphins currently have no one viable at the position. That could change via a trade, but as for now, De’Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle will see an uptick in projected targets. Keep in mind, however, that there are many other reasons to be bearish on these players, so I still wouldn’t recommend drafting them at their current ADPs.
Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith, TEs, Steelers Condolences to anyone who drafted these tight ends in fantasy leagues or best ball. Pat Freiermuth will obviously lose targets to Jonnu Smith, particularly in the end zone. Smith, meanwhile, won’t have the same volume he received in Miami. He’ll be heavily involved in the offense, but he won’t receive 111 targets like he did in 2024.
June 21
Tyreek Hill, WR, Dolphins Tua Tagovailoa is reportedly working to get the ball out quicker, likely because of the offensive line issues. This is obviously bad news for Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Both are overdrafted.
Darius Slayton, WR, Giants Darius Slayton has established a strong connection with Russell Wilson thus far, according to ESPN’s Jordan Ranaan. Slayton isn’t viable for regular leagues, but he has some late-round best ball appeal because he tends to have some spike weeks.
Dont’e Thornton, WR, Raiders Dont’e Thornton has become a top target for Geno Smith, according to a team reporter. Thornton has insane athleticism and upside, so he could have a big year despite being just a fourth-round rookie. He’s a sleeper to look for late in drafts.
June 17
Jordan Addison, WR, Vikings Jordan Addison’s DUI trial is set for July 15. There’s a chance he could be suspended, depending on the verdict of the trial.
Emeka Egbuka, WR, Buccaneers Emeka Egbuka has been the “talk of Buccaneers mini-camp,” according to Pewter Report. Meanwhile, a report from FantasyPros says that Chris Godwin is “hopeful” to be ready by Week 1.
June 12
Detroit Lions Offense As if things weren’t bad enough for the Lions with Ben Johnson leaving and Kevin Zeitler signing elsewhere, Frank Ragnow retired. Ragnow was one of the best centers in the NFL, so Detroit will sorely miss him. Everyone in Detroit’s offense deserves a downgrade from all of these developments.
R.J. Harvey, RB, Broncos J.K. Dobbins has visited the Broncos and may sign with them. This would be harmful for R.J. Harvey, who is only being drafted because the competition in Denver sucks. Dobbins’ presence would change that.
Colston Loveland, TE, Bears Colston Loveland is unlikely to be “full go” by training camp, according to Ben Johnson. Loveland has a shoulder issue, and while that’s not a long-term issue, it could hurt him as far as getting on the field in the near future.
Anthony Richardson, QB, Colts Anthony Richardson is dealing with a shoulder injury that will sideline him in practice. While this may not keep him out of regular-season action, it’ll give Daniel Jones an opportunity to overtake him. The Indianapolis coaching staff may be looking for any excuse to go to Jones instead of Richardson at this point.
C.J. Stroud, QB, Texans C.J. Stroud is dealing with shoulder soreness. DeMeco Ryans said that he doesn’t deem it to be a big deal, but that’s what Kyle Shanahan said of Christian McCaffrey’s “calf” injury last year. Any shoulder issue can be potentially perilous for a quarterback.
