The NFL’s summer break is ending as rookies from eight teams report for training camp today. The Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Miami Dolphins, New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, and San Francisco 49ers will start welcoming their first-year players, signaling the start of a new chapter for these young athletes.
In Kansas City, quarterbacks are also reporting alongside the rookies. The spotlight is on Caleb Williams, the No. 1 overall pick, who remains unsigned but is one of the most anticipated arrivals. Other notable rookies include Keon Coleman in Buffalo, Xavier Worthy in Kansas City, Joe Alt in Los Angeles, Chop Robinson in Miami, Taliese Fuaga and Spencer Rattler in New Orleans, Malik Nabers in New York, Ricky Pearsall in San Francisco, and Rome Odunze in Chicago.
The Baltimore Ravens had their rookies report on Saturday, but today marks the first major wave of arrivals. By the end of the week, most rookies and some veterans, including those from the Bears and Texans who will play in the Hall of Fame Game on August 1, will have reported for camp.
Next week, the majority of veterans will join, and practices will officially begin. The NFL is gearing up for the 2024 season, with the summer break now in the rearview mirror. Excitement is building as teams prepare for the challenges and opportunities ahead.
