Overview

  • Linebacker Nakobe Dean starts camp on the active/PUP list after tearing his patellar tendon in the wild-card win over Green Bay in January.
  • Per NFL rules, players on the PUP list at the season opener must miss at least four games and do not occupy spots on the 53-man roster.
  • Rookie Jihaad Campbell practiced in a limited capacity on his first day of camp, marking his earliest on-field work since shoulder surgery.
  • Vic Fangio and Nick Sirianni will distribute off-ball linebacker reps among Zack Baun, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Campbell until Dean is eligible to return.
  • Campbell’s activation predates Fangio’s initial estimate for an August comeback, potentially accelerating his role in the defense.
