Penny Hart WR | ATL
Falcons' Penny Hart: Headed to IR
The Falcons placed Hart (concussion) on injured reserve Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Hart sustained a concussion during the Falcons' 13-13 preseason tie versus Cincinnati, and he was moved to injured reserve prior to making Atlanta's final 53-man roster Tuesday. Therefore, barring any injury settlement with the team, he will now be forced to remain on this list for the entire 2023 campaign. The 5-foot-8 wideout totaled 11 receptions for 82 yards over the first three seasons of his career in Seattle, so he was likely a longshot to survive the team's final roster cuts from the get-go.

Michael Bandy: Waived ahead of deadline
The Broncos waived Bandy on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Bandy joined the Broncos in late July after spending the last two seasons with the Chargers. However, he was unable to make enough of an impact in Denver to earn a 53-man roster spot. It's possible he lands on a practice squad ahead of the 2023 campaign.

Colts' Juwann Winfree: Let go by Indianapolis
The Colts released Winfree on Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

Marquez Callaway WR | LV
Marquez Callaway: Waived by Denver
The Broncos waived Callaway on Tuesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Callaway signed with Denver in March after three seasons with the Saints and was competing for a depth role at wide receiver throughout training camp. He caught just one of four targets for seven yards during exhibition play and was unable to land a spot on the 53-man roster. Callaway could still end up with the Broncos as a member of their practice squad.

Simi Fehoko WR | ARI
Simi Fehoko: Parts ways with Dallas
The Cowboys waived Fehoko on Tuesday.
Fehoko missed the end of the 2022 campaign due to a shoulder injury but returned to full health during the offseason. He got some run with the first-team offense during OTAs but was unable to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. However, it's possible he at least earns a spot on a practice squad in 2023.

Dontario Drummond WR | DAL
Dontario Drummond: Let go by Dallas
The Cowboys waived Drummond on Tuesday.
Drummond spent his rookie season in 2022 on the Cowboys' practice squad, and he missed out on a spot on the team's 53-man roster for a second consecutive season. However, it's possible he winds up on a practice squad in 2023.

Lil'Jordan Humphrey WR | DEN
Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Let loose by Broncos
Denver released Humphrey on Tuesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Humphrey signed with the Broncos in early March after bouncing between New England's practice squad and active roster last season. The wideout led Denver with eight catches, 12 targets and 113 receiving yards during exhibition play, but that wasn't enough to earn him a spot on the active roster. Given his strong training camp, it wouldn't be surprising if Humphrey ends up on Denver's practice squad.

Raleigh Webb WR | TB
Raleigh Webb: Let go by New England
The Patriots waived Webb on Tuesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Webb played in 12 games last season -- two in Baltimore and 10 in New England -- where all but one of his 168 snaps came on special teams. He caught one pass for six yards in two preseason games and will explore his options once he clears waivers.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba WR | SEA
Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Returns to practice Tuesday
Smith-Njigba (wrist) took part in Tuesday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
The 2023 first-round pick ran routes and caught passes in individual drills, albeit with a heavy wrap on his surgically repaired left wrist following last Thursday's procedure to address a slight fracture. As Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Monday, Smith-Njigba will avoid injured reserve to begin the season, but his status for a Week 1 divisional matchup with the Rams remains up in the air.
