Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee) "looks good" and feels "great" coming out of the team's first training camp practice on Wednesday, according to Mark Craig of The Minnesota Star Tribune. Moore missed all of 2024 after suffering a season-ending knee injury during a joint practice last August while playing for the Atlanta Falcons. The 25-year-old played in 17 games for the Arizona Cardinals in 2023, recording 530 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 40 receptions and 28 rush attempts. Moore could be in line for a similar gadget role in Minnesota and also could be called upon to return punts. He's behind Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Jalen Nailor on the Vikings depth chart at receiver. However, with Addison likely facing a suspension due to an offseason arrest, Moore could get a chance early in the season.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. continued to get first-team reps when the offense was in 11 personnel at training camp practice on Wednesday, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Quarterback Geno Smith did throw a deep ball to Thornton, but it was broken up. Thornton, not second-rounder Jack Bech, has been getting reps with the first-team offense since the spring, so he could be a valuable deep threat with his speed for Smith in his first year in the NFL. Jakobi Meyers is the Raiders' WR1 entering the season, so there is plenty of opportunity for Thornton if he continues to impress the coaching staff and gain chemistry with Smith. Tre Tucker will be Thornton's primary competition for targets. At best, Thornton might be a boom/bust flex option for fantasy managers in deeper formats.
