NFL training camp PUP list tracker 2022: Jalen Ramsey, Denzel Ward, Chase Young, Michael Thomas among injured

Training camps are getting underway around the NFL, but some teams are already battling big-name injuries. Already we have players being placed on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, meaning they are ineligible to practice because of injuries suffered prior to camp. Players on PUP during camp can be activated any time up until the season, but if they remain sidelined once rosters are finalized, they are required to miss at least four games.

Here’s a rundown of all the notable players placed on PUP thus far:
