Seattle coach Mike Macdonald said Charbonnet looks 'awesome' and 'dang good' while rehabbing his torn ACL. Charbonnet remains on reserve/PUP and is required to miss at least the first four games, so the coach's comments are progress context rather than a return timetable.
Charbonnet remains an IR or deep-bench stash, not a Week 1 option. Treat the encouraging rehabilitation note as a reason to keep monitoring him, while waiting for a practice-window or activation update.
Monangai participated in Chicago's Monday practice after a knee issue, according to a report attributed to Courtney Cronin. The return is a positive availability signal, though it does not define his practice load or Week 1 role.
Monangai's participation improves his Week 1 availability outlook, but fantasy managers should wait for fuller practice and role information before projecting workload.
Chase was suited up for Cincinnati's Monday practice after the recent knee concern, according to a report attributed to Charlie Clifford. The participation is a positive recovery signal rather than a final game-status designation.
Chase's practice return supports keeping him in Week 1 plans; continue to monitor the Bengals' official participation and game-status reporting.
Kubiak said Kittle looks good as San Francisco approaches Week 1, but added that his workload will be determined. The update supports Kittle's availability outlook without confirming a normal snap share.
Kittle remains viable for Week 1 plans, but monitor San Francisco's final practice and game-status information before assuming a full workload.
McVay described Nacua as making good progress while recovering from his psoas injury. The update is encouraging but does not provide a confirmed return-to-practice or game-status timetable.
The coach's update is a positive recovery signal, but keep Nacua's availability tied to the Rams' next participation or game-status report rather than treating it as a clearance.
Kraft is expected to be fully available for Green Bay's opener after returning to full contact in joint practice, according to Rob Demovsky's report. He is being held out of the preseason finale as the club looks ahead to Week 1.
Kraft's recovery signal is positive for Week 1 planning. His preseason absence is not, by itself, evidence of a new limitation.
Jeremy Fowler reported that Evans expects to be available for San Francisco's opener despite a minor groin issue. The report is encouraging, but it does not eliminate the need to monitor practice participation before Week 1.
Treat the report as a positive Week 1 availability signal and continue monitoring the 49ers' practice reports.
McCaffrey said his absence was part of the 49ers' workload plan and returned to team drills. The sourced update reduces concern created by the practice gap, though preseason workload management is not a guarantee about in-season health.
This is a reassuring update for McCaffrey's near-term availability; continue to distinguish the confirmed practice return from broader health projections.
