Joining York on the list are redshirt senior offensive lineman Ar'maj Reed-Adams and junior wide receiver Kevin "KC" Concepcion. Adams, who was listed as a lineman on the Second-Team Offense, started all 13 games for the Aggies last fall and helped anchor the 25th-best rushing attack at the FBS level last season. He joined Texas A&M in 2024 after a four-season stint with the Kansas Jayhawks. Both York and Reed-Adams were both also named Walter Camp Preseason All-Americans earlier this week.
Concepcion, who was named to the Fourth-Team Offense, transferred into College Station this offseason after beginning his career in the ACC with North Carolina State. During his first two seasons with the Wolfpack, Concepcion hauled in 124 receptions for 1,299 yards and 16 touchdowns and also added 60 carries for 356 yards and two touchdowns. A highly-touted transfer portal addition, Concepcion has racked up $2.5 million in NIL deals to bring his talents to College Station.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields carted off practice field with apparent leg injury
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields was carted from the practice field Thursday morning with an apparent lower leg injury. Fields threw an incomplete pass to Jeremy Ruckert on his fifth play of team drills when he went down. The quarterback, in his first season with the Jets, sat on the grass for a few moments before getting up and limping to the sideline while helped by a trainer. It wasn't clear how the injury occurred in the Jets' second practice of training camp. The team had no immediate word on Fields' condition or the nature of the injury. Fields spent a few minutes in the injury tent on the sideline as trainers examined him before a cart came out to transport him into the facility. Fields sat in the passenger seat next to the driver in the cart and then got up under his own power before stepping inside to be further evaluated. First-year coach Aaron Glenn stopped the team period after Fields was hurt and the Jets ran special teams drills. Fields signed a two-year, $40 million contract as a free agent in March after playing last season in Pittsburgh and is expected to be New York's starter this season. Veteran Tyrod Taylor, in his second season with the Jets, is the backup and replaced Fields in team drills. New York also has Adrian Martinez, the 2024 United Football League MVP, and rookie Brady Cook on its roster, but neither has thrown a pass in an NFL game. If Fields is sidelined for a significant amount of time, the Jets could be in the market for an experienced quarterback. ___ AP NFL:

Jets QB Justin Fields carted off practice field with apparent leg injury, reports say
The New York Jets officially have their first injury scare of the summer, and it's a big one. Starting QB Justin Fields was carted to the locker room after limping off the field Thursday morning with an apparent lower leg injury during practice, according to multiple reports. What happened to Justin Fields? Fields reportedly pulled up during a play in team drills after an incompletion to tight end Jeremy Ruckert. After the throw, he sat on the ground momentarily before he limped off the field. Fields was being attended to by a trainer in the injury tent before he sat in the passenger seat of a cart and eventually walked into the facility. While the severity is still unknown, this could have massive implications if Fields, who signed a two-year, $40 million contract in free agency this offseason, was to miss an extended period of time during training camp, preseason or worst-case scenario if it was something that sidelined him until the regular season or further into the future. Once Fields headed to the locker room, backup QB Tyrod Taylor took over first team snaps for the Jets.
