- After missing practice Wednesday, Chris Olave underwent evaluation that detected a blood clot in his lung, and Nick Underhill reported he was discharged from the hospital Thursday.
- Olave closed a breakout 2025 campaign with career highs in catches, yards and touchdowns, finishing with 100 catches, 1,163 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.
