Broden was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Broden joined the organization as an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas but unsurprisingly failed to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. He's a candidate to wind up on Seattle's practice squad after passing through waivers.

Plumlee (undisclosed) was waived with an injury designation Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Plumlee is set to miss the 2025 campaign as a result of this move. The college quarterback turned wide receiver has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game.

White was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

White was drafted by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft but won't be on the team's initial 53-man roster. The rookie out of UNLV is likely to stick around on the practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Kinsey was waived Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Kinsey appeared in six regular-season games for Tennessee last season but was bumped off the 53-man roster after the Titans selected two wide receivers in the 2025 NFL Draft. He's a candidate to land on the team's practice squad, assuming Kinsey isn't claimed on waivers.

Williams was waived Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Williams failed to make Pittsburgh's initial 53-man roster despite a productive preseason. The rookie out of Indiana is expected to pass through waivers unclaimed but may subsequently land on Pittsburgh's practice squad.

Nailor (hand) has new competition for playing time after the Vikings traded for WR Adam Thielen on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Nailor's hand injury seemingly was part of the motivation for the trade, potentially rendering him unavailable during the same part of the season when Jordan Addison will be suspended (Weeks 1-3). With rookie Tai Felton (arm) also banged up and perhaps not considered ready for a full-time role, the Vikings spent days trying to pry Thielen away from Carolina without giving up an early draft pick. Nailor, meanwhile, hasn't practiced in two weeks, with Darren Wolfson of KSTP reporting in mid-August that the Vikings were concerned about his hand injury. Vikings coach Kevin Stefanski said Nailor was week-to-week and declined to comment on whether surgery was a possibility.

Johnson (foot) was waived with an injury designation Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Johnson will miss the 2025 season due to the injury, barring an injury settlement. The 27-year-old wide receiver has 23 games of regular-season NFL experience, including three with the Steelers in 2024.

Smith was waived Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the Jets' official site report.

Smith's strong preseason play wasn't enough for him to secure a spot on the Jets' 53-man roster. The 26-year-old wideout appeared in one regular-season game for the Jets in 2024 and is a candidate to land on the practice squad if he doesn't garner interest on waivers.

Skinner was waived Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the Jets' official site report.

Skinner gave the coaching staff something to think about with a productive preseason, but the undrafted rookie out of Kansas ultimately failed to make the initial 53-man roster for the Jets. He'll almost certainly stick around with the team's practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Pritchett was waived Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the Jets' official site report.

The Jets ultimately went with Xavier Gipson (shoulder) over Pritchett on their 53-man roster, though Pritchett will likely land with the team's practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed. Pritchett showed shiftiness as a receiver in preseason and can also contribute on special teams as a return man.
