NFL announces dates, locations of 24 preseason joint practices
NFL announces dates, locations of 24 preseason joint practices The NFL announced 24 joint preseason practices. Here are the teams, dates and locations.
The Arizona Cardinals will hold a joint practice in August with the Denver Broncos on Aug. 14. It was announced along with 23 other joint practices around the NFL.
With only three preseason games, joint practices has been the new trend. Teams' starters can get competitive, controlled reps in practice against another team, getting them the reps they needed before the season without having to play them as much in the preseason. In the controlled settings, it limits injury risk, although it does not eliminate it.
The NFL announced all 24 scheduled practices on Wednesday. Below are all those practices.

ESPN ranks four Ohio State football players among top 5 of 2026 NFL draft position group
The 2026 NFL draft still feels like light years away. Heck, we haven't even started fall training camp for the 2025 college football season yet. However, there are those out there who live, breathe, and eat NFL draft news, so it's a year-round consumption for some. And, yes -- there are those that cover the draft all year long, so there seems to always be something to look at. At a place like Ohio State, having players go (usually high) in the draft is the norm rather than the exception, and that figures to be the case again in 2026, though seeing a whopping 14 players won't happen like it did last April. Still, there are some NFL draft hopefuls wearing the Scarlet and Gray that figure to be some of the best at their position groups, and ESPN's Matt Miller and Jordan Reid took turns trying to identify them -- as we sit here in late June -- about ten months from the annual spectacle taking place in Pittsburgh. Here's a look at the four players the ESPN duo believes could be in the top five at their position, and what they say about each. Remember, it's still very early in this process, and how each performs during the coming campaign, where things go with injuries, and off-the-field things will all play into how this all changes. Wide Receiver, Carnell Tate Where Miller has Tate: No. 5 Where Reid has Tate: No. 4 Ohio State has had four straight NFL drafts where a receiver has been taken in the first round. Tate has the skill and work ethic to make it five-straight years, but to do it, he'll have to get enough targets and show big play ability despite playing second-fiddle to all-everything Jeremiah Smith. Max Klare, Tight End Where Miller has Tate: No. 4 Where Reid has Tate: No. 3 Klare is going to add another dimension to the passing game this year. The traditional receivers on the outside are already the best in college football. What will teams do with Klare singled up on a linebacker or safety as an outlet valve or underneath option? Ohio State is getting a known commodity here, and there's a good chance he rises to the top tight end in the country once inserted into the offense in Columbus. Sonny Styles, Linebacker Where Miller has Tate: Not Ranked Where Reid has Tate: No. 5 While it's great to see Styles at least ranked in the top five by Reid, it's quite possible folks are overlooking Styles. He's an athletic freak who's still figuring out the linebacker position and started to really show his playmaking ability last season. He can cover in space, is fast, diagnoses plays well, yet can come up and hit like a hammer. Look for a major breakout year from him and a rise up the draft boards. Caleb Downs, Safety Where Miller has Tate: No. 1 Where Reid has Tate: No. 1 No surprise here. Downs is widely known as the best safety in college football and could very well be the best defender -- even perhaps overall player -- in the game. He has unbelievable athleticism and instincts and is a true leader on and off the field. He's versatile and determined to be great. Someone is going to be happy to take him off the board in the first round next year.

Is DeAndre Hopkins the Ravens' 'Missing Piece'?
Is DeAndre Hopkins the Ravens' 'Missing Piece'? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Last season the 12-5 Baltimore Ravens featured one of the most complete rosters in football on both sides of the ball. Although their season was cut short in heartbreaking fashion in the AFC Divisional Round, they have all the right reasons to believe another deep run - possibly further - could be in the cards in 2025. Advertisement Baltimore's time to win is now. Because of this, general manager Eric DeCosta has pulled out all the stops in free agency to fill the team with as many high-caliber veterans as possible in hopes of finally putting the puzzle together. Earlier in the offseason, the Ravens signed star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, one of the game's most accomplished pass-catchers and a consummate professional in the locker room. D-Hop joins exciting young receivers Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman to form a trio that could compete with the likes of the best receiving corps in franchise history. And it doesn't hurt when a two-time MVP in Lamar Jackson is throwing them the ball. At minicamp, some Ravens teammates mentioned their observations from the brief time they've had with Hopkins and how he has gelled with the organization. "I like 'D-Hop'. I've gotten to have some conversations with him. He is 'Mr. Contested Catch.' That is for sure," said cornerback Marlon Humphrey. "Just having a conversation with him, I thought it was really humbling. Advertisement "We asked him, me and one of the strength coaches, 'What do you think about the team from the outside looking in since you've been on other teams?' And he said, 'It seems like there's been a piece that's been missing. I could be that addition. I could not be that addition.'" Hopkins, 33, may recognize that he's on the downward slope of his career. He enters Year 13 in the NFL a part of his third team in three years. The former All-Pro was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs midway through last season. He wasn't able to be the missing piece for Patrick Mahomes & Co., but the Ravens still believe he is capable of that role in Baltimore. With a 1,000-yard season as recent as 2023, the capability is still there. On Baltimore, however, he'll likely fill a role as a complementary piece around the Ravens' stellar run game and loaded arsenal of pass targets. Advertisement It sounds like Hopkins has humbly taken ownership of this position as he does everything he can to contribute to what would be his first Super Bowl win. "To hear a veteran guy, All-Pro guy and Pro Bowl guy say he could be, or he could not be [the piece that's missing], to me, that was extremely humbling. I feel that he fits the Ravens mold, and I think he'll fit right in," Humphrey added. Related: Could DeAndre Hopkins Someday Own an NFL Team?
