In a picture Ja'Lynn Polk posted to social media, Maye was working out with wide receivers Stefon Diggs, Kendrick Bourne, DeMario Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Polk, tight end Hunter Henry, running back Rhamondre Stevenson, and backup quarterback Josh Dobbs. A photographer Maye follows, Griffin Zetterberg, posted a video of the quarterback hitting Diggs with a fade.
While it's unclear who organized the session, Maye noted that he wanted to take a step forward as a leader in his second season during last month's minicamp.
'I think it's an opportunity for me to take a jump,' Maye said. 'I think from last year being a rookie, trying to come in here and earn my stripes, earn my keep through hard work. I think this year is the same approach. You got new guys in here, new staff, got to keep on getting to know everybody, show my work ethic. From there, as the season comes around, try to take the next step in leadership and leading the offense and hopefully leading this football team.'

'Fantastic Four' stretches lead to 2nd week at N.America box office
"The Fantastic Four: First Steps," Disney's debut of the rebooted Marvel Comics franchise, continued to outperform the competition for a second straight weekend at the North American box office, industry estimates showed Sunday. Actor-of-the-moment Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Emmy-winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn star as the titular team of superheroes, who must save a retro-futuristic world from the evil Galactus. The film pulled in an estimated $40 million in the Friday-through-Sunday period, a 66 percent drop from the prior weekend, for a two-week global total of $368 million. Universal's family-friendly animation sequel "The Bad Guys 2," about a squad of goofy animal criminals actually doing good in their rebranded lives, debuted in second spot, earning $22.2 million. "This is a good opening for an animation follow-up sequel," said David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. The film edged out Paramount's reboot of "Naked Gun," a slapstick comedy starring Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr, son of the bumbling police lieutenant from the original 1980s movie and related television series "Police Squad!" It pulled in $17 million in its opening weekend. "Superman," the latest big-budget action film featuring the iconic superhero from Warner Bros. and DC Studios, slipped from second to fourth at $13.9 million, Exhibitor Relations said. That puts the global take of the film, starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, at $551 million. "Jurassic World: Rebirth" -- the latest installment in the blockbuster dinosaur saga -- finished in fifth place with $8.7 million. Its worldwide total stands at $765 million after five weeks in theaters. Independent horror film "Together," which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and was picked up by Neon, claimed sixth spot in its debut weekend with $6.8 million. "This is a very good opening for an indie horror pic," Gross said. Rounding out the top 10 were: "F1: The Movie" ($4.1 million) "I Know What You Did Last Summer" ($2.7 million) "Smurfs" ($1.8 million) "How to Train Your Dragon ($1.4 million) bur-mlm/des

NFL holdouts, contract negotiation tracker: Micah Parsons, Terry McLaurin request trades; James Cook skips practice
NFL training camp season is officially upon us, which means holdout/hold-in season is too as players seek new contracts. One day after Terry McLaurin reportedly requested a trade from the Washington Commanders, Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons followed suit. Parsons posted his desire for a trade via a long social media post, which included details about how contract negotiations with the Cowboys turned sour in the last few months. Owner Jerry Jones said he has no plans on trading Parsons when talking to the media on Saturday. Jones said he isn't fazed by the trade request and sees it a merely a negotiating tactic. "That's negotiation," Jones told reporters. "I've heard that so many times in my 30 years in the NFL." Like Parsons, McLaurin has reported to training camp but has sat out practices with an injury. But with no new deal in place, McLaurin has taken things to the next level. The Commanders reportedly don't plan to fulfill the star receiver's trade request, but things are getting tense for these two star players and their respective clubs. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] What other big names either haven't reported or aren't taking full part in practice while seeking a new contract? Are their situations roiling or boiling? Here's the latest, where we rank each situation by the attention and rancor from both sides. Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons As Parsons put his cards on the table with a trade request, it's hard to know if this is just another negotiating tactic or if he is truly fed up. Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein reported that a major sticking point is owner Jerry Jones believing he already made a verbal deal with Parsons a few months ago. Parsons said his agent will work out a deal. The Cowboys are no strangers to drawn-out contract talks, but the level of acrimony here only seems to be growing. Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin McLaurin reported to the Commanders on Sunday morning, but his subsequent trade request indicated negotiations aren't going well. The two sides have not made progress on a new deal, ESPN reported. Is this trade request simply a tactic to pressure Washington, or is it real? Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson Hendrickson reporting to camp on Wednesday by no means the situation has simmered much. If anything, it seems like the prudent play considering he's being fined $50,000 a day for each practice he misses. It doesn't change the fact that Hendrickson went gloriously passive-aggressive and posted about being in Florida as camp opened last week, nor that he called a recent Bengals offer "atrociously, atrociously low." This is still a big one to monitor. Buffalo Bills RB James Cook dCook ha been practicing throughout camp until he missed Sunday's session for an undisclosed reason. When asked why he sat out, he told one reporter: "business." Cook has talked openly about his desire for a new contract. "I deserve what I want," he said last month. We'll see if this escalates. Green Bay Packers OL Elgton Jenkins Jenkins said he missed OTAs for a "family matter" and not his contract situation. He was activated off the NFI list last week and practiced Monday, including playing center and snapping to Jordan Love. Green Bay just paid offensive lineman Zach Tom record-setting signing bonus money as part of his new contract. Will Jenkins get one too? And how will his move from guard to center affect that deal? San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings Jennings has been officially practicing with the 49ers, which indicates he's not planning to hold in, though he has missed several practices with a calf injury. Head coach Kyle Shanahan disputed the report that Jennings had asked for a trade if he didn't get a contract extension. The injury adds an interesting wrinkle as Jennings seeks an extension.
