Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could start getting looks
Pugh, recovering from ACL surgery, has been cleared to do positional drills, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Pugh tore his ACL in the middle of October last season as a member of the Cardinals. He's currently a free agent and is expected to be able to visit teams soon, perhaps with a mid-season return as a realistic goal. While the 33-year-old's skills are likely to have taken a step back due to his age and injury, he could still be capable of providing valuable guard depth for a team.
