Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Jonathan Taylor returns to camp, remains on PUP list
Jonathan Taylor has returned to Colts’ camp after spending time away rehabbing his ankle. He remains on the PUP list and his stance with the Colts has not changed.
Fantasy Impact
Taylor still wants the Colts to honor his request to be traded and will not participate in practice until he is 100% healthy. The star running back took time away from the team to rehab his ankle, an injury that impacted his performance last season. Taylor would have to be removed from the PUP list prior to the start of the 2023 season or be required to sit out the first four games. Fantasy managers will want to monitor the situation heading into fantasy drafts, with Taylor currently ranking as the RB9 in ECR.

Kendre Miller (knee) likely to miss a few weeks
Kendre Miller underwent tests that confirmed he suffered a knee sprain Sunday. The third-round pick is expected to miss a few weeks, but the team is optimistic he will be ready for Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
The good news for Miller and the Saints is that he will not require surgery. Considering he had surgery last year to repair his MCL and meniscus, there was cause for concern. Fantasy managers should expect the Saints to turn to Jamaal Williams in Week 1 if Miller is not healthy enough to suit up and with Alvin Kamara serving a suspension.

Zach Ertz fully cleared, expected to start Week 1
According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, veteran TE Zach Ertz has been cleared for full football activity and is expected to be ready to start Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
Ertz tore his ACL and MCL in Week 10 of last season after starting off the year strong. He finished 2022 with 47 catches for 406 yards and four touchdowns in less than 10 games. The worry is how Ertz, who is almost 33, will be able to perform physically after two major ligament tears, but he will immediately have a role with the team. Second-year TE Trey McBride got the starter treatment in the preseason opener, being rested, but he may be relegated to TE2 duties.
