Moore (undisclosed) reverted to the Commanders' injured-reserve list Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Hulstein (undisclosed) reverted to the Jets' injured-reserve list Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

The tight end was waived/injured Sunday after participating in all three preseason games and making four catches for 25 yards. Hulstein signed with the Jets in early August as an undrafted free agent out of Marist. He will need to reach an injury settlement with New York to have a chance to play in 2026.

Curtis (knee) reverted to the Jets' injured-reserve list Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

The tight end was waived/injured Sunday. Curtis suffered the knee injury during a preseason game against the Steelers and had to miss the preseason finale versus the Giants. He'll need to reach an injury settlement with the Jets to have a chance to play in 2026.

Nesbit (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve with an injury settlement by the Vikings on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The tight end was waived/injured Sunday and reverted to IR earlier Monday. Nesbit caught three of six targets for 29 yards across two preseason games before getting injured. He's now free to sign with another team and play in 2026 if he can get healthy enough.

Green Bay reverted Yassmin (undisclosed) to injured reserve Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Yassmin was waived/injured Sunday and went unclaimed on waivers. The Australian tight end has yet to play in an NFL game and will miss the entire 2026 season while on IR unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Packers.

Castles (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve with an injury settlement by the Packers on Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

The tight end was waived/injured a day earlier and reverted to IR early Monday. The settlement indicates that his injury is not serious and that he might be able to play in 2026 if he can find another opportunity. Castles saw action in all three of Green Bay's preseason games but did not record a catch.

Rogers (knee) reverted to the Cowboys' injured reserve list Monday, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Rogers suffered an MCL sprain during the preseason and was waived with an injury designation on Sunday. The tight end went unclaimed and will now spend the entirety of the 2026 regular season on IR unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

The Dolphins claimed Joly off waivers from the Broncos on Monday.

Joly was a fifth-round selection of the Broncos in the 2026 NFL Draft, but he did not crack Denver's 53-man roster for the upcoming regular season. He'll get a fresh start in Miami, and if Will Kacmarek (undisclosed) misses time, then Joly would slot in as the team's TE3 behind Greg Dulcich and Seydou Traore.

Kittle (Achilles) will be eased back into practice this week, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Kittle was activated from the active/PUP list last week and continues to make a push to play Week 1 against the Rams on Thursday, Sept. 10. He'll be limited in practice this week, and San Francisco figures to then ramp things up for Kittle next week to see if he can make himself available in the season opener. If Kittle is unable to go, Jake Tonges and Luke Farrell would handle tight end duties for the Niners.

Johnson (shoulder) is participating in Monday's practice in a non-contact jersey, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Johnson was injured in practice last Monday and continues to deal with the issue, though his return to action would suggest the tight end is on track to play Week 1 against the Cowboys. Johnson figures to work mostly as a blocker this season after the Giants signed Isaiah Likely to a contract over the offseason.
