As the first kick-off of the 2015 NFL season grows closer by each waking moment, NFL Training Camps are under way. Every day, we will give you a quick run-down of injuries, plays, or news out of multiple teams training camps. We will bring you the news directly from local and national beat reporters, as well as the team’s official social media accounts.
Arizona Cardinals
Buffalo Bills
In a move that almost feels comical, Rex Ryan and the Bills claimed IK Enemkpali, the linebacker who gave Geno Smith a broken jaw.

Houston Texans
Hard Knocks kicked off last night and the Texans put on a great show. Bill O’Brien’s intensity and J.J. Watt’s dedication made the show enjoyable and incredibly intriguing.
"Want dedication to excellence? To greatness? To being #1? This is dedication. This is @JJWatt. #HardKnocks http://t.co/sW9SVvZFf6 — NFL (@NFL) August 12, 2015"

New York Jets
The Jets did reach out to Mike Vick, but the two decided it was best not to get a deal done. The Jets probably couldn’t guarantee him a starting job.
However, both parties -- the #Jets and Vick -- determined that it wasn't in their best interests to resume their professional relationship.

Philadelphia Eagles
The biggest competition on the Eagles right now is the starting right guard spot left vacant by Todd Herremans. Four guys are competing (Moffitt, Tobin, Gardner, Vandervelde), but according to local beat reporter Tim McManus, none of the four has really stood out in practice. Each has gotten equal playing time as the Eagles look to protect Sam Bradford this season.
Andrew Gardner w/ first team today, btw. Here's how many practices the RGs have been w/1's:

Gardner: 3
Tobin: 2
Vandervelde: 2
Moffitt: 2
San Diego Chargers
Phillip River’s contract status is still in limbo looking past the 2015 season. The quarterback says he has no updates on negotiations and it’s beginning to sound like there may never be.
Philip Rivers: "There's just nothing really that's noteworthy, that's ongoing that'd be worth an update." Remains focused on 2015.
