Gary Jennings WR | LAC
Gary Jennings: Given tryout by Carolina
The Panthers invited Jennings (concussion) to their facility for a tryout Monday, Schuyler Callihan of SI.com reports.
Jennings was waived from the Chiefs' injured reserve list last August and after going unclaimed off waivers, he went unsigned throughout the entire 2022 campaign. The 26-year-old wideout hasn't recorded a reception since his 2019 rookie season with the Dolphins, so he'll likely need to make a strong impression with a team this offseason in order to land a contract.

Lynn Bowden Jr. WR | NO
Lynn Bowden: Let go by New England
The Patriots waived Bowden on Wednesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Bowden, who was active for just one contest with the Patriots last season, spent the bulk of the 2022 campaign on the team's practice squad. The 2020 third-round selection will now look to parlay his versatility into another NFL opportunity.

Devin Duvernay WR | ARI
Ravens' Devin Duvernay: Resumes running
Duvernay (foot) has resumed running as he continues to make progress in his recovery from surgery to address a broken fifth metatarsal, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Duvernay expressed positivity about his current physical condition, so he appears to be on track to recover before training camp. The wideout suffered a broken fifth metatarsal in his right foot during practice last December. A Pro Bowl return man and a capable slot receiver, Duvernay can look forward to some stability on offense once he's healthy, with Lamar Jackson having been re-signed. Of course, the additions of Odell Beckham and rookie first-round pick Zay Flowers could cap his opportunities.

Rondale Moore WR | MIN
Cardinals' Rondale Moore: Participates in minicamp
Moore (groin) participated in voluntary veteran minicamp at the end of April, the Cardinals' official site reports.
Moore underwent surgeries on his core and pinky finger after the Cardinals placed him on injured reserve in mid-December. He's at least 3-to-4 months removed from the procedures at this point and should be ready for the more substantiative portion of the offseason program between mid-May and mid-June. With DeAndre Hopkins and Marquise Brown still on Arizona's roster, Moore seemingly fits in as the No. 3 receiver ahead of his age-23 season. The 2021 second-round pick took on a larger role per-game last year, averaging seven targets in his eight games en route to a 41-141-1 receiving line and 5.5 average depth of target. As a rookie in 2021l, Moore averaged 4.6 targets and 1.3 carries for 36.5 yards per game while seeing 61 percent of his passes behind the line of scrimmage (1.4 aDOT).

Stanley Berryhill III WR | DET
Stanley Berryhill: Let go after suspension
The Lions waived Berryhill (suspension) on Tuesday.
The NFL suspended Berryhill, along with teammates Jameson Williams, Quintez Cephus and C.J. Moore, at the end of April for violating the league's gambling policy. Williams was the only player from that group to retain a roster spot with Detroit, which isn't surprising given he was a first-round draft pick in 2022. Berryhill appeared in four games for the Lions last year but wasn't targeted across six offensive snaps and was likely headed for another practice-squad role after signing a reserve/future contract this offseason. He was on the fringe of sticking in the NFL already, so his suspension may have cost him a chance to further his professional career.

Shi Smith WR | KC
Panthers' Shi Smith: Slides down depth chart
Smith was Carolina's No. 3 receiver for most of last season but may be only sixth or seventh on the depth chart this spring, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Carolina drafted Jonathan Mingo in Round 2 after signing Adam Thielen, DJ Chark and Damiere Byrd in the offseason, with the latter potentially being direct competition for Smith's roster spot given that he has experience returning punts. Smith didn't do much on either offense or special teams while playing all 17 games last year, catching 22 passes on 482 offensive snaps and averaging 6.2 yards on 23 punt returns. The 2021 sixth-round pick now enters his third NFL season with job competition.

Nikko Remigio WR | KC
Chiefs' Nikko Remigio: Inks deal with Kansas City
Remigio signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent Monday, Matt McMullen of the team's official site reports.
Remigio lacks size but closed out his collegiate career in style by hauling in 74 passes for 852 yards and six touchdowns. He also starred on special teams for Fresno State, as he returned two punts for touchdowns in 2022. He'll undoubtedly bring his experience as a returner to the next level with the hope of cracking the roster.

Cody Chrest WR | GB
Cody Chrest: Let go by Indianapolis
Chrest was waived by the Colts on Monday.
Chrest will head to waivers after spending less than a week with Indianapolis. The 24-year-old signed as an undrafted free agent but will now look for another opportunity elsewhere.

Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG
Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Healthy for spring practices
Hyatt (hamstring) did some drills at rookie minicamp but didn't participate in 7-on-7s, Paul Schwartz of the NY Post reports.
Hyatt hurt his hamstring at the NFL Combine, but only after running a 4.40 40 time and posting a 133-inch broad jump and 40-inch vertical. The rookie third-round pick reportedly is working on gaining weight after checking in at only 176 pounds at the combine, recently noting that he's up to 180 and wants to play at about 190. Hyatt should be cleared for training camp, if not spring practices, and he could challenge Darius Slayton or Isaiah Hodgins for perimeter snaps early on.
