The Panthers waived Taylor on Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Taylor had just signed with the team earlier this month but is now headed to waivers. The 23-year-old could be a candidate to land on Carolina's practice squad should he go unclaimed on waivers.

The Eagles waived Toure on Saturday, Ian Rapoport of ESPN and NFL Network reports.

Toure fought to make the Eagles' 53-man roster, but with names such as DeVonta Smith, rookie first-rounder Makai Lemon, Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore dominating the depth chart, the 28-year-old Toure only ever had a slim chance. He will now be subject to waivers through Monday due to Sunday's cutdown day. If the wide receiver goes unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any franchise's 53-man roster or practice squad.

Tipton (leg) is expected to begin the 2026 regular season on the reserve/PUP list, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Tipton began training camp on the active/PUP list, so the wide receiver is eligible to be placed on the reserve/PUP list to start the season. Once the third-year player recovers from his tibia surgery and spends the required minimum four weeks on the PUP list, he will be eligible to return to the Saints for the remainder of the regular season.

The Dolphins waived Wease on Saturday.

Wease played a large role at wide receiver for the Dolphins' last three regular-season games in 2025. The wide receiver had an edge over all the new competition due to his experience, but it appears he will be unable to make the final cut. If Wease remains unclaimed through Monday's waiver process, there is a strong chance he will end up back with the Dolphins on the team's practice squad.

Pierce (ankle) is working out prior to Saturday's preseason game against the Lions but will not play, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Pierce was activated from the Active/PUP list Thursday, but he is not ready to appear in a game just yet. He will keep building up over the next two weeks with an eye on suiting up for his team's Week 1 matchup with the Ravens.

The Patriots waived Dorner on Saturday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Dprimer signed with the Patriots in early May as an undrafted free agent out of North Texas. The wide receiver played in all three preseason contests for the team, catching four of his five targets for 37 yards. Dorner will now be subject to waivers through Monday due to Sunday's cutdown day. If the 22-year-old goes unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any team's 53-man roster or practice squad.

The Patriots waived DeGennaro on Saturday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

DeGennaro signed with the Patriots in early May as an undrafted free agent out of James Madison. The wide receiver was aiming for a special-teams slot with the team but has evidently fallen short. DeGennaro will be subject to waivers through Monday due to Sunday's cutdown day. If the 25-year-old goes unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any organization's 53-man roster or practice squad.

The Patriots waived Dixon on Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

The Patriots signed Dixon in early May as an undrafted free agent out of Culver-Stockton. The bulky wide receiver finished Friday night's preseason finale against the Browns with eight receptions for 71 yards. Sunday's cutdown day extends Dixon's waiver period through Monday, but if the 25-year-old goes unclaimed, there is a strong chance he will end up as a member of the Patriots' practice squad for the beginning of the regular season.

Hardman is being released by the Bills on Saturday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Hardman inked a reserve/futures deal with the Bills in January and entered training camp competing for a depth spot on the 53-man roster. He caught four passes on eight targets for 20 yards and a touchdown across three preseason games, adding three kickoff returns for 80 yards and four punt returns for 50 yards. That versatility on special teams was not enough for Hardman to survive the training camp roster cuts, but he now has the opportunity to sign with another team before the start of the regular season.

Head coach Todd Bowles said Saturday that he expects McMillan (knee) to be available for the Buccaneers' Week 1 clash against the Bengals on Sunday, Sept. 13, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

McMillan has been recovering from a knee injury he sustained in early August, which has limited his reps in training camp practices and prevented him from playing in each of the Buccaneers' three preseason games. There's optimism that the third-year wideout will not miss regular-season action, but his practice participation over the next two weeks will provide more clarity on his status for Week 1. With Mike Evans now in San Francisco, McMillan is projected to be Tampa Bay's WR3 this season behind Chris Godwin and Emeka Egbuka (toe), with Tez Johnson and rookie third-rounder Ted Hurst also in the mix for snaps on offense.
