Fantasy Impact:

Payne injured his ankle July 27 when he had it stepped on in practice. While Saturday’s session was not a padded practice, it is still great to see the first-rounder return to the field as he’s expected to be a major contributor as a rookie. He played nose tackle in 11-on-11 drills but has the ability to play multiple roles across the defensive line. It is not yet known if Payne will participate in Thursday’s preseason game against the Jets.
