Marshon Lattimore leaves practice with trainer
The New Orleans Saints Pro Bowl Cornerback left practice early today with an undisclosed injury. He was able to walk off the field under his own power but was accompanied by a trainer as he left. Lattimore, a 2017 first-round pick out of Ohio State, is in the first year of a new 5-year, 97.6 million dollar deal. The Saints will be relying on their defense heavily this year, with uncertainty surrounding the status of star Running Back Alvin Kamara and the departure of All-Pro Left Tackle Terron Armstead.

Is Matthew Stafford's arm injured?
The Los Angeles Rams’ decision to hold their starting Quarterback out of team drills has led to questions about his injury status. Matthew Stafford is coming off a standout season, headlined by his first Super Bowl victory. If the Rams are going to compete for a second straight Championship, they will need their star QB to be available and comfortable.

Taysom Hill back at practice
New Orleans Saints multi-positional talent Taysom Hill returned to practice today for the first time since suffering a rib injury last week. Hill is a limited participant and will likely need time to ramp up to real, padded action. Still, it’s a positive sign for Hill who helps the Saints in various ways. Last season, for example, the former BYU Quarterback threw four touchdown passes and ran in five more. He’ll look to offer similar versatility to new Head Coach Dennis Allen this season.

Cardinals Activate TE Maxx Williams
The Arizona Cardinals have activated veteran Tight End Maxx Williams from the PUP list. Williams returns to an offense packed with talent, especially at his own position. The Cardinals used a second-round draft pick to select Colorado State Tight End Trey McBride in the 2022 NFL Draft. Williams and McBride will likely compete for the role as the second Tight End. The Cardinals re-signed Zack Ertz in March and the three-time Pro Bowler is the presumptive starter.
