Required Reading: Links to the Best in AFC North Coverage, 7/25 Edition

Today's AFC North Required Reading includes Ed Reed's return to the Ravens' practice field, an injury to a promising Bengals rookie, a profile of impressive Browns rookie right tackle Mitchell Schwartz and the most comprehensive breakdown of what Mike Wallace's new Steelers contract may ultimately look like.

Baltimore Ravens

Matt Miller and other members of the Bleacher Report NFL team gather to discuss what the best- and worst-case scenarios are this season for the Baltimore Ravens.

Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun reports that Ravens safety Ed Reed has indeed showed up for the start of training camp. Reed missed OTAs and mandatory minicamp earlier this offseason.

Cincinnati Bengals

Apparently Cincinnati Bengals rookie cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick has suffered a leg injury. It may in fact be a broken leg, which would hold him out of the entirety of training camp and puts his chances of making the 53-man roster this year in jeopardy.

The full extent of the injury won't be known until Kirkpatrick reports to camp on Thursday and undergoes a team physical, reports Jeff Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Cleveland Browns

Bleacher Report's Brian Murtaugh believes that the Cleveland Browns' successful signing of rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden on Tuesday is the clear beginning of the end for Colt McCoy.

Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal profiles another Browns rookie, offensive tackle Mitchell Schwartz, who has apparently quickly mastered the team's playbook.

Pittsburgh Steelers

Kyle Stanzel of Bleacher Report gives us an idea of what we can expect out of the Pittsburgh Steelers' passing offense this season.

False rumors swirled on Tuesday about the Steelers and holdout wide receiver Mike Wallace coming to a contract agreement.

Hot on the heels of those erroneous reports, Dave Bryan of SteelersDepot.com breaks down absolutely everything you need to know about Wallace's asking price and how a contract would actually be structured. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the intricacies of NFL player contracts.
