Kinlaw did not take part in 11-on-11 practice sessions early in training camp this summer, as the club worked him back slowly from an offseason cleanup surgery on his knee.
Kinlaw, the No. 14 overall pick in the 2020 draft, appeared in 14 games as a rookie with 12 starts. He registered 33 tackles, 1.5 sacks and one interceptions as a rookie.
