Overview
- The team’s first official 2026 practice report showed multiple recent injuries trending the right way with Marcus Mariota, Nick Allegretti, Jordan Magee, Charles Omenihu and Ben Sinnott listed as full participants.
- Edge rushers Odafe Oweh and K’Lavon Chaisson and running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt were back at practice but listed as limited, indicating managed workloads rather than full returns.
- Croskey-Merritt’s groin issue is being watched closely because it has kept him out of the preseason and can blunt a running back’s ability to accelerate and change direction.
- Head coach Dan Quinn said everyone is practicing but cautioned that participation varies in intensity and duration, a sign the staff is protecting players as they ramp up.
- The healthier report eases some concern tied to the injury-plagued 2025 season, but fans should watch this week’s practices and snap counts as the club heads to Philadelphia for its Week 1 opener airing on FOX at 4:25 p.m.
