The 49ers cut McCormick from the practice squad Tuesday.

McCormick spent the summer with the Raiders and then signed with the Niners' practice squad ahead of Week 1. He's yet to appear in a regular-season game this season after posting a 39-183-0 rushing line across five games with Las Vegas last season.

Schultz (shoulder) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

Schultz has been managing a shoulder issue for the last few weeks but has yet to miss a game, and his ability to put in a full practice Tuesday clears the way for him to play Thursday against the Bills. The veteran tight end has seen his involvement in the Houston passing attack tick up since the team's Week 6 bye, and over the last five games, Schultz has turned in a 30-303-1 receiving line on 41 targets, with the switch at QB from C.J. Stroud (concussion) to Davis Mills not impacting his target volume or production.

The Browns waived Davis on Tuesday.

Davis has appeared in two contests for Cleveland this season, logging one offensive snap and 23 on special teams. He returned one kickoff for 28 yards and recorded one tackle.

The Titans signed Wilkerson to the practice squad Tuesday.

The Titans are dealing with several injuries at wide receiver after losing Calvin Ridley to a fractured fibula in Week 11. Rookies Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) and Chimere Dike (chest) are also battling injuries. Wilkerson has appeared in nine career regular-season contests, catching six passes for 60 yards and two touchdowns.

The Titans signed Proche off the practice squad Tuesday.

With Calvin Ridley done for the season due to a fractured fibula, and Chimere Dike (chest) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) dealing with injuries, the Titans needed wideout and returner depth. Proche has 64 career regular-season games of experience.

The Lions activated Rodriguez (knee) from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

Rodriguez appears to be on the verge of making his 2025 season debut after a lengthy rehab from ACL surgery. The fourth-year linebacker recorded 43 tackles (27 solo), including 2.0 sacks, one pass breakup and one fumble recovery across 10 appearances last season.

The Commanders waived Jones on Tuesday.

Jones' spot on the 53-man roster was needed in order to make room for new kicker Jake Moody. Jones saw his first career regular-season snaps in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, logging 11 offensive snaps and another seven on special teams. He caught his lone target for 25 yards. Jones could return via the practice squad if he clears waivers.

Collins (ankle) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

Houston estimated Collins as a limited participant for Monday's walk-through session, but the wideout has cleared up any concern about his availability for Thursday's game against the Bills. For the third straight week, Collins will be on the receiving end of throws from quarterback Davis Mills, who will make another start while C.J. Stroud remains in the concussion protocol.

The Titans placed Ridley (fibula) on injured reserve Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Ridley will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a fractured fibula during the Titans' 16-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday. The 30-year-old wideout will finish his second campaign in Tennessee with just 17 catches for 303 yards and no touchdowns on 36 targets over seven games. Though Ridley is on the books through 2027 on a four-year, $92 million contract, he could be designated as a post-June 1 cut this offseason to save $18.7 million in cap space.

Mathis (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice.

Mathis was unable to suit up for Sunday's Week 11 win over the Bucs, but he appears to have a chance to return for Thursday night against the Texans. Mathis has logged 52 defensive snaps across three appearances this season.
