Sanders (undisclosed) was waived by the Broncos with an injury designation Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official website reports.

Sanders recorded two total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, during the preseason, but he appears to have picked up an undisclosed injury along the way. The linebacker will now be placed on waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, he'll revert to season-ending injured reserve with Denver. At that point, he'd have to reach an injury settlement with the team in order to possibly play in 2026.

Manning (undisclosed) was waived with an injury designation by the Bears on Sunday.

Manning recorded 11 total tackles (nine solo) during the preseason, but it appears as if the cornerback picked up an undisclosed injury along the way. If the 24-year-old clears waivers, he'll revert to season-ending injured reserve with Chicago. If that is the case, Manning would have to reach an injury settlement with the Bears to have a chance to play during the 2026 campaign.

Hyppolite (shoulder) was waived/injured by the Bears on Sunday.

Hyppolite suffered a shoulder injury in the team's second preseason contest Aug. 15 against the Browns. If the linebacker goes unclaimed on waivers, he'll revert to season-ending injured reserve with Chicago. At that point, he'd have to reach an injury settlement with the team to have any chance to play in 2026.

Bishop (suspension) was waived by the Bears with an injury designation Sunday.

Bishop is already set to miss the first three weeks of the 2026 campaign while serving a suspension for a violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy. The cornerback is now dealing with an apparent injury as well, and if he goes unclaimed on waivers, he'll revert to injured reserve with the Bears.

Durant (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Bills on Sunday with a designation to return.

Durant compiled six total tackles (three solo) during the preseason, but he appears to have picked up an undisclosed injury at some point along the way. As a result, the 2026 fifth-round pick will be forced to miss at least four regular-season contests to open his rookie campaign.

Shavers (knee) was moved to the reserve/PUP list by the Bills on Sunday.

Shavers missed the entirety of training camp and the preseason while he continues to recover from a torn ACL that he suffered in the team's 27-24 win over the Jaguars in the 2025 wild-card round. The wide receiver will now be forced to sit out at least four contests to begin the regular season, and the earliest he'll be able to make his season debut is Week 5 against the Rams on Monday Night Football.

The Falcons placed Collins (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday with a designation to return during the season, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Collins did not play in the Falcons' preseason finale against the Dolphins on Friday due to an unknown injury. The wide receiver will now need to miss at least the first four games of the regular season before he is permitted to rejoin the team's active roster.

The Cardinals moved Reiman (ankle) from the active/PUP list to the reserve/PUP list Sunday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Reiman started training camp on the active/PUP list with an ankle injury, making him eligible to be placed on the Cardinals' reserve list to start the season. The tight end must now miss at least four games before becoming eligible to return to the team's active roster.

The Packers waived Hilton on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

The Packers claimed Hilton off waivers from the Commanders on Aug. 9. The wide receiver participated in all three preseason games for the Packers but was unable to haul in his only target. The 23-year-old will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears will become a free agent able to sign with any franchise's 53-man roster or practice squad.

The Packers waived Martinez on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

Martinez played in all three preseason games for the Packers, rushing 16 times for 60 yards. The running back was unable to make the initial 53-man roster and will now be subject to waivers. If Martinez goes unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any franchise's 53-man roster or practice squad.
