The Rams waived Presley on Tuesday.

The undrafted rookie out of Oklahoma State entered training camp as a longshot to make the Rams' 53-man roster, but he played well enough in the preseason to make it a tough decision for the team's coaching staff. Presley had a standout performance in the Rams' second preseason game against the Chargers, when he caught six passes (on eight targets) for 102 yards, and he finished with an 11/164/1 statline across the Rams' three preseason games. He wasn't able to survive Tuesday's cut-down day, but he might opt to stay with the Rams as a member of the practice squad if he clears waivers.

The Rams waived Edwards on Tuesday.

Edwards joined the Rams in late April as an undrafted free agent. He missed the team's preseason opener due to an undisclosed injury, but he returned for the final two contests and posted four catches (on six targets) for 57 yards and one touchdown. While Edwards wasn't able to carve a spot for himself on the Rams' 53-man roster, he is a candidate to remain in Los Angeles as a member of the team's practice squad.

The Packers moved Watson (knee) to the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

Since tearing the ACL in his right knee in Week 18 of last season, Watson has progressed quickly through his rehab, but the Packers will take a cautious approach with his return. Green Bay's receiving corps to begin the season will feature Jayden Reed (foot), rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) in prominent roles, with Savion Williams (hamstring) and Malik Heath as depth. Watson's first chance to return to action will come in Week 5 against the Bengals.

Horton (ankle) has beaten out Marquez Valdes-Scantling for the No. 3 wide receiver role, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

A rookie fifth-round pick, Horton quickly usurped Valdes-Scantling in the pecking order during training camp. The veteran's release Tuesday confirms not only that Horton will be the No. 3 wideout but also that the team expects him to have moved past an ankle injury ahead of the Week 1 matchup versus the 49ers. He was highly productive at Colorado State and ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, but the No. 3 role in Seattle may offer underwhelming volume in a run-heavy offense, making Horton a better dynasty option than redraft play.

Bourne (lower leg) is on New England's initial 53-man roster Tuesday.

Bourne has been sidelined since Aug. 1 due to an apparent lower- leg injury suffered in practice, and while the veteran wideout seemed a likely cut candidate for the Patriots, it appears he's secured a depth role to begin the 2025 campaign. That said, New England's initial 53-man roster includes a hefty eight wide receivers, so further moves wouldn't be surprising.

Royals (knee) remained sidelined for Tuesday's practice, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

Royals is battling knee tendinitis and missed the Chiefs' final preseason contest. Coach Andy Reid indicated Tuesday that Royals' return isn't imminent, according to Goldman. His availability for Week 1 against the Chargers on Sept. 5 appears to be in question. Royals' early-season role is to be determined behind Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown (ankle) and JuJu Smith-Schuster.

The Patriots placed Polk (shoulder) on injured reserve Tuesday.

The 2024 second-round pick suffered a shoulder injury during the Patriots' preseason opener against Washington that required surgery, and he'll miss his entire sophomore campaign. After he posted a poor 12-87-2 line over 15 regular-season games as a rookie, Polk's future in New England appears very shaky.

The 49ers moved Aiyuk (knee) to the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

This is merely a procedural move, as coach Kyle Shanahan has circled (in his mind) a Week 6 road matchup with the Buccaneers as a possible date for Aiyuk to make his 2025 debut, per Vic Tafur of The Athletic. With this move from active/PUP to reserve/PUP, though, Aiyuk technically can return to action as early as Thursday, Oct. 2 at the Rams. He remains in recovery mode from the ACL and MCL tears that he sustained in his right knee Week 7 of last season. With Demarcus Robinson suspended for the first three games of the season, Jauan Jennings (calf) and Ricky Pearsall are the top wide receivers on San Francisco's active roster.

The Browns placed Bell (hip) on the reserve/non-football injury list Tuesday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.

Bell's placement on the reserve/NFI list will force him to miss at least the first four games of the regular season. A dislocated hip suffered mid-September of last year forced him to spend all but one game of the 2024 campaign on IR, but it remains to be seen whether it's the same issue that has held him out of team activities this offseason. A timetable for his expected return remains undisclosed.

Cleveland waived McDonald (undisclosed) with an injury designation Tuesday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.

It's not immediately clear what type of issue McDonald is dealing with -- he played in all three of the Browns' preseason contests, tallying two receptions on two targets for 11 yards and a touchdown. The 24-year-old signed with Cleveland as an undrafted free agent in May. In the likely case that McDonald clears waivers, he'll revert to injured reserve and miss the 2025 campaign unless he works out an injury settlement with the team.
