Chargers | Joshua Kelley reaches deal
Los Angeles Chargers fourth-round draft choice RB Joshua Kelley agreed to terms on a four-year contract with the Chargers Saturday, July 25. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Kelley could become the #2 back on the team in short order if Justin Jackson can't stay healthy. Even if Jackson does stay healthy, Kelley could be the goal line back and get on the redraft fantasy radar this year.
Chargers | Two rookie WRs sign deals
Los Angeles Chargers fifth-round draft choice WR Joe Reed and seventh-round draft choice WR K.J. Hill signed four-year contracts with the Chargers Saturday, July 25. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Reed can be a viable WR/RB tweener and make the final roster with special teams contribution. Hill is an excellent route running slot receiver. The Chargers don't have much behind Mike Williams and Keenan Allen, so these are names to monitor in deep dynasty leagues.
Giants | NYG adding Chandler Catanzaro
Free-agent PK Chandler Catanzaro (Jets) agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the New York Giants Sunday, July 26, according to a source. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Giants | Aldrick Rosas likely to be cut
The New York Giants are expected to release PK Aldrick Rosas soon, according to multiple sources.
Link to story
Footballguys view: Rosas is out after a so-so 2019 and hit-and-run incident in the offseason. Chandler Catanzaro is in, but Joe Judge could also look to reunite with Stephen Gostkowski as Catanzaro is just a journeyman and no guarantee to be good enough to win the job.

Vikings | Dalvin Cook's agent denies saying his client will report
Updating a previous report, the agent for Minnesota Vikings RB Dalvin Cook said he had not talked to head coach Mike Zimmer about his client showing up to camp and ending his holdout, even though Zimmer had announced that Cook would report during a press conference Saturday, July 25.
Link to story
Footballguys view: Cook apparently did talk to his position coach Kennedy Polamalu about showing up for camp, but for now we should still treat this as a holdout and draft accordingly.
