NFL Training Camps Open. What's newsworthy to you?

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals pass-rusher J.J. Watt was put on the physically unable to perform list Wednesday after experiencing soreness in his hamstring after Tuesday's conditioning test that kicked off his first training camp.

The injury kept Watt out of Wednesday's practice, the Cardinals' first of camp, and he said he didn't expect to practice Thursday, as well. He later said he didn't know when he'd be back on the field.

"We're gonna take it very slow and be very smart about it," Watt said. "I mean, it's a hamstring, obviously, so you want to be very smart. Take your time."

JJ Watt injured ... color me surprised

-------------------------

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Kelvin Benjamin was released Wednesday by the New York Giants and didn't appreciate how it all went down for everybody to see. He was especially critical of coach Joe Judge, who he thought was doing everything to "kind of sabotage the situation."

Benjamin explained his side of the story in a phone conversation Wednesday night with ESPN. He was in good spirits despite the spirited on-field confrontation earlier in the day.

"I'm good," Benjamin said. "A little disappointment."

His disappointment was the result of how the situation unfolded. It all began with Judge calling Benjamin over on the field before the first practice of training camp at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center. Judge told the converted wide receiver that he'd be fined for reporting to camp overweight.

Benjamin, who was trying to resuscitate his career as a tight end, said the Giants wanted him to report to camp at 251 pounds. He was 265 pounds in the spring and came in at 268 pounds for camp.

Players not happy with Judge's style ... surprise surprise surprise. That dude needs to start winning quick before all the players start tuning him out.

--------------------

METAIRIE, La. -- Sean Payton expressed frustration Wednesday night over the fact that New Orleans Saints receiver Michael Thomas did not have ankle surgery until June, though he declined to elaborate on why the procedure was delayed.

Thomas, who was plagued by the injury throughout last season, is expected to miss time at the start of this season, as well.

"Well, look, it appears we're gonna have to spend some time without him. It's disappointing," Payton said during his opening training camp videoconference before the Saints' first practice Thursday. "And we'll work through it with the other players that are here. But the surgery took place, and obviously we would've liked that to happen earlier than later. And quite honestly, it should've."

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported in January that Thomas was expected to undergo surgery to repair the torn deltoid and other injured ligaments in his ankle. But it was just revealed last week that Thomas did not have surgery until after he reported for the Saints' mandatory minicamp in June.

Thomas acting out and doing dumb stuff? The drama of last year continues ...

Bring in the ex-Panther Kelvin Benjamin for TE competition!

If Judge fears the players turning on him quick, just wait until the regular season NJ/NY media gets on the job!

Wentz is so damn brittle. His body can not withstand the rigors of the NFL. How funny would it be if the Colts pick up Foles? Foles even threrw it out there that he would like to go the the Colts.

I think maybe one team that needs QB badly will give Wentz another chance if Colts let him go.. Wentz is really odd case - he played well in the first few years but then fell off the cliff within one year. Something must have happened to Wentz that the public doesn't know about.

I just could not imagine something like the Giants' brawl happening on this team. I am not saying it absolutely couldn't, but I just don't think

(1) Rivera would let it get to that point. Something like that doesn't just happen out of the blue. Extra words, extra shoves during practice, grumbling in meetings and on the sidelines about a player or players play in practice, etc. I just think Rivera and his coaches have a better ear to the ground than that; and

(2) There are probably a few, but I just don't think the players here would be jumping into something like that. I also imagine if something really started there are several players who would be breaking it up (Allen, McClaurin jump to mind probably Young as well). It's just not this team.

Gettleman felt so much pressure to go out and spend. He’s put it all on this year, if they shit the bed it’s gonna be a full rebuild.

People say Danny the Tranny is the key, I’d lean towards Saquon. Saquon has “no doubt” talent…how much can they lean on him coming off the injury? Also, that oline has been built and rebuilt…can it finally do the job?

How is any of that "good stuff" if you are a Giants' fan. I really thought the Giants were going to be the biggest threat to us (despite all the Dallas love). Between the brawl itself, and the comments and observations afterward, and the rumors that Judge is not well liked by the players, I am much less worried that they are going to be taking the next step.

The QB is looking good in practice, but I remember reading that last year as well. Besides, his flaws are the type that only come out in live games, [I]i.e.[/I] his inability to read/react to pressure which, in turn, causes him to force the ball or hold it to long.

Maybe if we start winning again the Hogettes will come back.

Had season tickets (err girl i was sticking it to did) and they were a light football toss away from our seats. After a few years, you just didnt see them anymore. This was 2005 ish?

Quinton Dunbar -- signed a 1 yr deal with the Lions and surprise surprise guess who has already missed first 2 days of practice.

I did enjoy listening to Jay Gruden talk about Dunbar, he danced around it a bit but he called him soft, unreliable and a person teammates have taken note of as not being there when needed.

And for those Twitter talks about how great a camp he was having, didn't seem like his coaches were very confident about what they had seen so far. A lot of run and short passing game when he was in.
