NFL Notes: 49ers, Browns, Giants, Packers, Redskins & Texans

 

49ers

• OL Adam Snyder is not practicing Monday, but he was spotted without a knee brace and walking without a limp. (Matt Maiocco)

Browns

• HC Mike Pettine mentioned that WR Josh Gordon is dealing with a “minor” injury, which is why Gordon was held out of Monday’s practice. (Around The League)

Giants

• The Giants are projected to have six new starters on offense and another six on defense to go along with a new offensive coordinator. (Dan Graziano)
• There are reasons to wonder if the Giants have the right personnel to make their offensive scheme work. (Dan Graziano)
• RB Rashad Jennings is the “clear No. 1 back” as of now. (Dan Graziano)
• Fifth-round LB Devon Kennard and WR Marcus Harris have been the “surprise young stars of camp” thus far. (Dan Graziano)

Packers

• DL Mike Pennel has been “perhaps the class of the undrafted rookies” this year for Green Bay. (Rob Demovsky)
• QB Scott Tolzien could be the Packers guy if they end up keeping only two quarterbacks as he outplayed Matt Flynn in Saturday’s preseason opener. (Rob Demovsky)

Redskins

• Peter King of MMQB.com believes backup QB Kirk Cousins is worth a second-round pick from a “quarterback-needy team.“
• ILB Perry Riley has had a “strong camp” and looked pretty fast in the team’s preseason opener. (John Keim)

Texans

• HC Bill O’Brien told reporters that QB Ryan Fitzpatrick is locked in as the team’s starting quarterback. (Brian T. Smith)
