NFL ROUNDUP | Training camp news and notes

Eagles 27, Saints 17: Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb spent just over three minutes on the field, taking the Eagles 75 yards to score on the game's opening series. McNabb was 5-for-5 for 58 yards. He hit Freddie Mitchell with a 29-yard touchdown pass, putting Philadelphia up 7-0 with 11:28 remaining in the first quarter. Koy Detmer replaced McNabb and was 6-of-9 for 51 yards with an interception and A.J. Feeley was 11-of-18 for 98 yards and a touchdown. Philadelphia was without running back Duce Staley, who has been a training camp holdout. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Monday that Staley would be fined an additional $5,000 for missing the Eagles' preseason opener.
Panthers: Nothing has changed in Carolina's quarterback rotation after one preseason game. Rodney Peete is still the starter and three others are still trying to unseat him. If there's one thing that did become clear in Carolina's 20-0 win over Washington, it's that Peete had better not slip up because Jake Delhomme and Chris Weinke are ready to pounce.
Jaguars: Fred Taylor can't even jog, let alone practice these days. Still, the running back insists his left knee is not seriously injured. "I'm fine," he said after missing practice for the ninth straight day. "I've been fine. If it were Sept. 7, I'd play." Taylor is out with what the team is calling a bone bruise. Coach Jack Del Rio said team doctors are being extremely cautious with the sixth-year veteran.
Lions: John Jett sure made an impression on new coach Steve Mariucci. In Detroit's 26-13 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday, Jett dropped three first-half punts inside the Steelers' 10-yard line, including one that was downed on the 2 and led to a safety. Jett finished the game with five punts inside the 20 in eight tries, and only 12 yards of return yardage.
Seahawks: Linebacker Chad Brown is back on the field for the first time since breaking his right foot in the middle of last season. But he took it slow Monday at training camp and didn't participate in contact drills. The Seahawks are counting on Brown to be ready for the regular season opener Sept. 7. Coach Mike Holmgren is hopeful Brown will be able to play in the team's third exhibition game Aug. 23 against Kansas City.
Bills: Ainsley Battles left camp, less than two weeks after signing as a free agent. During the safety's three NFL seasons, two with Pittsburgh and one with Jacksonville, he played in 45 games, starting 17, and intercepted three passes.
Titans: Two rookie safeties are out with injuries, the starting free safety is working his way through Bell's palsy and the top rookie cornerback must see a specialist for a dislocated toe. Rookie safety Jesse Sowells is out with an injured knee, and safety Thomas Wright dislocated his right shoulder last week. Then doctors told free safety Lance Schulters on Saturday that he has Bell's palsy, a virus that affects the facial nerves. That night against the Cleveland Browns, top draft pick Andre Woolfolk dislocated his left toe.
Redskins: Coach Steve Spurrier, embarrassed by Saturday's 20-0 loss at Carolina, opened practice with a lengthy message to his team in a huddle at midfield. He wanted a tougher practice, and he sure got it. Running back Chad Morton got fed up by an extra shove from Jesse Armstead and attacked the linebacker, leading to a huge scrum that included linebacker LaVar Arrington flailing at receiver Rod Gardner. On the next play, Jeremiah Trotter drove running back Sultan McCullough into the ground with a bone-crunching tackle. Defensive coordinator George Edwards erupted at Trotter, who was ordered off the field for the rest of the series.
Cowboys: Offensive lineman Larry Allen missed practice Monday because of a swollen right ankle, another possible setback for the seven-time Pro Bowler who played just five games last season.
Dolphins: Left tackle Mark Dixon underwent surgery on his injured right ankle Monday, and linebacker Eddie Moore, this year's second-round draft pick, is expected to miss the entire season with a foot injury. Dixon's return date is unknown, but coach Dave Wannstedt hopes he can return by the Sept. 7 season opener to protect quarterback Jay Fiedler's blind side. The surgery was to clean out the ankle and stabilize a stress fracture.
Colts: Rookie free agent Montrell Lowe was re-signed, two months after releasing him, as they searched for depth at running back. Lowe signed with the Colts as an undrafted rookie in April. He was released in June. Also, the Colts placed defensive back Darrell Rideaux on the injured-waived list.
