  • Brittain Brown RB | CHI

    Brittain Brown: Hits waivers Tuesday

    The Bears waived Brown on Tuesday.

    Brown spent roughly the last two weeks with Chicago, providing the team depth during the preseason and training camp, but he never seemed to have a real shot at making the 53-man roster. The last time Brown suited up for regular-season action was as a rookie with the Raiders in 2022, when he appeared in six games and handled 61 total snaps on special teams.

  • Kevin Harris RB | JAC

    Kevin Harris: Let go on cutdown day

    The Jaguars waived Harris on Tuesday.

    Harris signed with Jacksonville on Aug. 19 and played in the team's final preseason game, recording 25 yards on seven carries along with 17 yards on three catches. His most recent regular-season action came in 2023, when he played in four contests with the Patriots and logged 16 carries for 65 yards and a touchdown along with three catches on three targets for 58 yards.

  • Travis Homer RB | CHI

    Bears' Travis Homer: Out minimum of four games

    The Bears placed Homer (calf) on IR on Tuesday, ruling him out for at least the first four games of the regular season.

    Homer will miss the first four games of the regular season, at a minimum, due to a calf injury sustained during Chicago's preseason opener against Miami. Once fully recovered, Homer will figure to return as a depth option behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson (foot).

  • Ulysses Bentley: Doesn't make 53-man roster

    The Colts waived Bentley on Tuesday, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.

    The undrafted rookie out of Mississippi finished the preseason with 22 carries for 94 yards and two touchdowns, along with two catches (on four targets) for 13 yards and a 20-yard kickoff return across three games. Bentley wasn't able to crack the Colts' 53-man roster, but he's a candidate to remain in Indianapolis as a member of the team's practice squad if he clears waivers.

  • Joe Mixon RB | HOU

    Texans' Joe Mixon: Officially out for first four games

    The Texans placed Mixon (foot/ankle) on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list Tuesday, ruling him out for the first four games of the season.

    The move has been expected for at least a few days, with Mixon's recovery timeline still very uncertain. Nick Chubb is the favorite to start in Mixon's place against the Rams in Week 1, although Dameon Pierce and Woody Marks are also in the mix for touches.

  • Malik Davis RB | DAL

    Malik Davis: Hits waivers

    The Cowboys waived Davis on Tuesday.

    Davis began the offseason signing a reserve/future deal with the Cowboys, then after being cut by the team late April, he got a chance to re-sign early August and provide preseason depth. He spent time on the team's practice squad last season and could be a candidate to re-sign there again.

  • Damien Martinez: Waived by Seahawks

    Seattle waived Martinez on Tuesday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

    Martinez won't stick around on the 53-man roster, in part due to the Seahawks' crowded backfield. The rookie seventh-round pick seems a solid candidate to resurface on the practice squad and continue his development with the team, should he go unclaimed on waivers.

  • Khalil Herbert RB | NYJ

    Khalil Herbert: Fails to make Colts' 53-man roster

    The Colts released Herbert on Tuesday, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.

    Herbert signed with the Colts in March after playing 14 regular-season games between the Bengals (eight) and Bears (six) in 2024. The 2021 sixth-rounder logged seven carries for 29 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' preseason opener against the Ravens, but he suffered an undisclosed injury during that game that forced him to miss Indianapolis' final two exhibition contests. The fact that Herbert wasn't waived with an injury designation indicates he's healthy, so he should garner plenty of interest from a team looking to solidify its backfield depth.

  • Jordan Waters RB | LAR

    Jordan Waters: Fails to make 53-man squad

    The Rams waived Waters on Tuesday.

    Waters played in all three of the Rams' preseason games, finishing with 10 carries for 63 yards and a touchdown while adding an assisted tackle. The undrafted rookie out of N.C. State won't make the team's 53-man roster to start the season, but assuming he clears waivers, Waters could remain with the Rams as a member of the team's practice squad.

  • Terrell Jennings: Doesn't make initial roster

    The Patriots waived Jennings on Tuesday, per the team's official site.

    Jennings played in three games with New England as an undrafted rookie last year, rushing 13 times for 33 yards while failing to catch his only passing target. He's a candidate to land on the Patriots' practice squad if he clears waivers.
