The Vikings signed Brosmer to the practice squad Wednesday, Rob Kleifield reports.

Brosmer made the Vikings' initial 53-man roster before being waived on Monday. The quarterback cleared waivers and will now serve as additional depth to Kyler Murray, J.J. McCarthy (ankle) and Carson Wentz on the practice squad instead of the active roster.

The Chargers cut Ross from their practice squad Wednesday.

Just two days after signing Ross to their practice squad, the club is now deciding to part ways with him. The undrafted rookie is now set to become a free agent once again after recording 47 receiving yards and a touchdown over the Chargers' three preseason contests.

Dulcich did not record a target across his two preseason games.

Dulcich played a total of 15 offensive snaps across those two games before sitting for the Dolphins' preseason finale against the Falcons on Friday. Entering his sixth NFL season, the UCLA product has an opportunity to be a featured part in the Dolphins' offense due to the lack of notable skill position players outside of running back De'Von Achane. The veteran tight end also demonstrated a strong rapport with quarterback Malik Willis in training camp, setting up Dulcich to be a go-to target in the passing game for the upcoming season. Dulcich's most productive season came in his rookie campaign with the Broncos in 2022, when he caught 33 passes (on 55 targets) for 411 yards and two touchdowns across 10 regular-season games.

The Browns signed Oliver to their practice squad Wednesday.

Oliver is headed to Cleveland after being waived by the Titans on Sunday. The 26-year-old spent the past two years in Tennessee, catching seven passes for 103 yards across 13 appearances.

The Chargers signed Wease to their practice squad Wednesday.

Wease cleared waivers after the Dolphins cut him Saturday but he's now getting a fresh opportunity with a new club. In three games with Miami in 2025, he reeled in six of 10 targets for 139 yards and a touchdown.

The Bears signed Ismail to the practice squad Wednesday.

The Bears waived Ismail during Sunday's cut-down day. The tight end cleared waivers and will return to the team's practice squad, where he spent the end of the 2026 season. Ismail has yet to suit up for an NFL regular-season game.

Schultz did not play in any of the Texans' three preseason games.

Schultz, wide receiver Nico Collins and running back David Montgomery were some of the offensive starters that did not participate in preseason games, with quarterback C.J. Stroud seeing minimal action against the Raiders on Aug. 20. Schultz is coming off a productive 2025 regular season, setting a career high with 82 catches, while his 777 yards were his most since the 2021 campaign with the Cowboys (808 yards). Jayden Higgins (knee) will miss the entire 2026 season, and with Tank Dell (knee) opening the season on injured reserve, Schultz and Collins figure to be the go-to targets for Stroud in the passing game.

Baltimore signed Vannett to its practice squad Wednesday, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.

The veteran Vannett worked with the Seahawks during training camp, but he missed the cut for their initial 53-man roster, and he'll now begin the season as a practice squadder in Baltimore. Barring an injury to one of the four tight ends on the Ravens' current depth chart, it doesn't seem likely Vannett will see much game action in 2026.

Stewart (knee) participated in Cincinnati's practice Wednesday, Yanni Tragellis of CBS reports.

Stewart returned to practice for the first time since hyperextending his knee late last month. While the 2025 first-round pick's status for the team's Week 1 matchup versus Tampa Bay is still up in the air, his presence would provide a big boost to the Bengals' defense if he manages to suit up.

Prescott didn't log any snaps during the Cowboys' three-game preseason schedule.

Prescott has had WR CeeDee Lamb to throw to since 2020, but the addition of George Pickens during the 2025 offseason helped the quarterback rack up the second-most passing yards in a season (4,552) of his 10-year career. Additionally, Prescott also tossed 30 TDs for the fourth time among his career-high 600 pass attempts. Dallas likely would like that latter number to come down in a more balanced offense, and a new defensive scheme under coordinator Christian Parker could mean Prescott and the offense are in catch-up mode less often. In any case, Prescott has a bonafide top receiving duo at his services, so another 4,000-yard campaign is entirely within the realm of possibilities in 2026
