Dolphins lineman Bayron Matos airlifted to hospital

NFL Camp Roundup

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Bayron Matos suffered an undisclosed injury at the end of Wednesday’s practice and was flown to a hospital on a helicopter.

The injury happened in the final minutes of Day 1 of the Dolphins’ training camp. The team said Matos was airlifted in stable condition. It did not release information on the injury.

“It’s a really heartbreaking part of the game,” Dolphins offensive lineman Austin Jackson said. “Very tough.”

The 24-year-old Matos is in his second year in the NFL. He went undrafted in 2024 but signed with the Dolphins as a free agent through the NFL’s International Player Pathway Program. He has only been playing football since 2022 when he walked on at South Florida.

Browns

BEREA, Ohio — Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski has to deal with uncertainty during training camp about a second-round draft pick because of an off-field incident for the second straight year.

Stefanski said before the Browns first training camp practice on Wednesday that the team was still gathering more information on Quinshon Judkins after the rookie running back was arrested on July 12 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on a charge of battery and domestic violence.

Judkins and Cincinnati defensive end Shemar Stewart (the 17th overall pick) are the NFL’s only unsigned draft picks. Stefanski did say it was possible the Browns could add another running back depending on Judkins’ future status.

Ravens

OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Lamar Jackson isn’t discussing the NFL Players Association’s arbitration case about alleged collusion in quarterback contract negotiations.

In January, arbitrator Christopher Droney ruled there wasn’t sufficient evidence of collusion by owners in contract negotiations with quarterbacks. The union is appealing. Jackson’s free agency from two years ago was part of the case. He ended up signing a five-year deal with the Ravens.

The revelation that the NFLPA and the league had a confidentiality agreement to keep the arbitrator’s ruling quiet has led to turmoil within the union. Lloyd Howell has resigned as executive director of the NFLPA.

Vikings

EAGAN, Minn. — The Minnesota Vikings believe Jordan Addison’s off-the-field issues are behind him. Potential NFL punishment looms.

Addison avoided a trial in a drunken driving case in California by pleading no contest to a lesser charge last week. He could still face a three-game suspension under league policy. Addison expressed readiness for whatever comes.

Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah said the team is in contact with the NFL but has no expected timeline for a decision. Addison has been a key receiver alongside Justin Jefferson, with 133 catches and 19 touchdowns in two years.

Titans

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans will give rookie quarterback Cam Ward most of the work running the first-team offense in training camp even as they hold off announcing the No. 1 overall draft pick their starter.

That gives Ward and the Titans more time to speed up his development.

This comes after coach Brian Callahan worked to make this a competition during the offseason and a move made easier by Will Levis choosing season-ending shoulder surgery.

Callahan said this will be a huge part of Ward’s development with Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle filling the other spots.

Packers

GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers’ profits from operations rose 39.3% for the 2025 fiscal year, thanks largely to the record $432.6 million it received in national revenue from the NFL.

The NFL’s only publicly owned franchise revealed its expenses and revenues Wednesday.

Each of the NFL’s 32 teams received $432.6 million from the NFL. That mainly comes from the league’s television contracts. The Packers reported $719.1 million in total revenue and $635.4 million in total expenses.

“I continue to be amazed by the popularity of the NFL and the league office’s ability to generate revenue,” outgoing Packers president/CEO Mark Murphy said. “It’s impressive. A big part of it obviously is TV. How people watch TV is changing dramatically.”
