Meyers (hand) will participate in Wednesday's practice session, Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Meyers has been out of action since injuring his hand during a joint practice with the Panthers nearly two weeks ago, but he is set to return to the field Wednesday. With Meyers cleared to get some work in, it seems likely he is on track to take the field Week 1 against the Browns.

Corum was rested for all three of the Rams' preseason contests.

Though Kyren Williams remains listed as the top running back on the Rams' unofficial depth chart, head coach Sean McVay's decision to hold out Corum throughout the preseason along with many of the team's key players suggests that the 24-year-old is essentially being treated as a co-starter heading into his third NFL season. After seeing limited action as a rookie in 2024, Corum doubled up his snap count in Year 2, finishing the regular season with 746 yards and six touchdowns on 145 carries while chipping in eight receptions for 36 yards on 14 targets over 17 games. While Williams remains the better bet to lead the Los Angeles backfield in carries in 2026, Corum could be primed to take on at least a slightly larger share of the workload after he was highly efficient with his opportunities a season ago.

Dippre agreed to sign with the Buccaneers' practice squad Tuesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

After going undrafted out of Alabama in 2025, Dippre was able to secure a spot on the Patriots' roster coming out of his first training camp but was limited to just two appearances during the regular season. The 24-year-old couldn't make the cut following his second camp with New England but was able to quickly find a new opportunity in Tampa Bay.

Kittle (Achilles) will travel to Australia with the 49ers and "is trending in the right direction to play" in the season opener Sept. 10 versus the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

A final call on Kittle's availability for Week 1 isn't expected to be made until the 49ers arrive in Australia, but his involvement in practice this week and presence on the road trip suggest that he's on track to play. Kittle -- who tore his right Achilles tendon Jan. 11 and underwent surgery three days later -- could have his snaps limited to some degree if he's cleared to play in the season opener.

The Vikings cut Lang from the practice squad Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.

The Vikings signed Lang to the practice squad Monday after he cleared waivers from Sunday's cutdown day. The tight end was then cut once more from the practice squad after just one day. Lang was competing for a depth role with the Vikings but was ultimately not deemed important enough to stick with the organization.

The Vikings signed Grandy to the practice squad Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.

The Bengals waived Grandy during Sunday's cutdown day. The tight end cleared waivers and has found a new home in Minnesota. The 26-year-old participated in all three preseason games for the Bengals but was unable to catch his sole target.

The Vikings signed Briscoe to the practice squad Monday.

Rudolph was waived by the Vikings during Sunday's cutdown day and has cleared waivers. The undrafted free agent out of Toledo impressed enough throughout training camp to earn a spot with the team's practice squad. Rudolph participated in all three preseason games but did not record any stats in the box score.

The Vikings signed Briscoe to the practice squad Monday.

The Vikings waived Briscoe during Sunday's cutdown day. The wide receiver cleared waivers and managed to produce enough in training camp to receive an invitation to the team's practice squad. The undrafted free agent out of Cal Poly participated in all three preseason games for the Vikings, catching one of his four targets for 11 yards.

The Dolphins cut Franklin from the practice squad Tuesday.

The Dolphins waived Franklin during Sunday's cutdown day. The tight end cleared waivers and joined the team's practice squad Monday before being cut Tuesday. The undrafted free agent out of Boston College has had a complicated few days, but he will ultimately need to find a new job. Franklin originally signed with the Patriots in late July, so there is a chance he will return to New England for a shot at the team's practice squad.

The Dolphins signed Watson to the practice squad Tuesday.

The Chiefs waived Watson during Sunday's cutdown day. The tight end cleared waivers and has found a spot with the Dolphins for the start of the regular season. The tight end participated in all three preseason games for the Chiefs, catching three of his five targets for 15 yards.
