  • Raiders' Mike Washington: Takes first-team reps after Jeanty exits practice

    Washington took the rest of the first-team RB reps in Sunday's practice after Ashton Jeanty left the session early due to an apparent right knee injury, Ryan McFadden of ESPN reports.

    The Raiders have yet to not provide any further details on the severity of Jeanty's injury, but if the 2025 first-rounder misses any time, Washington's fantasy stock would see a major bump. McFadden notes that Washington, who has had a strong training camp, was alternating starting reps with Jeanty before the injury occurred. Also in the team's backfield depth mix are Dylan Laube, Dare Ogunbowale and Roman Hemby.

  • Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Leaves practice with leg injury

    Jeanty left Sunday's practice with an injury and could not put pressure on his leg while leaving the field, Vincent Bonsignore of the California Post reports.

    Jeanty went down after diving for a catch and landing awkwardly, and he could not put any pressure on his right leg while being helped off the field by trainers, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com. Other Raiders players also were seen taking a knee in acknowledgement after the running back left the field. The exact nature and severity of this apparent injury are still unclear, with McFadden suggesting it could be a knee issue, so it will be worth monitoring further updates on the running back's status. In the event that Jeanty misses any time, Mike Washington is next up for carries in a Las Vegas backfield that also includes Dylan Laube, Roman Hemby and Dare Ogunbowale.

  • 49ers' Romello Height: Misses Sunday practice

    Height (undisclosed) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Height likely picked up an injury during Saturday's practice session. The third-round rookie tallied one tackle in Thursday's preseason win over the Chargers and is set to be a reserve piece on the edge throughout the 2026 season.

  • Nathan Voorhis DE | NYJ

    Nathan Voorhis: Waived with injury designation

    Voorhis (undisclosed) was waived/injured by the Jets on Sunday.

    Voorhis recorded two total tackles over two preseason contests with New York after signing with the team in May as an undrafted free agent. The defensive lineman is dealing with an undisclosed injury, and if he goes unclaimed on waivers, he'll revert to injured reserve with the Jets.

  • Taylen Green QB | CLE

    Browns' Taylen Green: Set to play Thursday

    Green is set to play in Thursday night's preseason finale against the Patriots, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    The sixth-round rookie out of Arkansas has yet to see preseason action. It appears Dillon Gabriel will start Thursday's game, but Green will see the field later on. If the Browns plan to split the halves between the two quarterbacks, Thursday's game could be a battle for a roster spot. The team will be announcing Monday whether Deshaun Watson or Shedeur Sanders will be starting the regular season, meaning that if it plans to keep three quarterbacks Gabriel or Green will not survive August 30.

  • Laith Marjan K | PIT

    Laith Marjan: Cut loose by Pittsburgh

    Marjan was waived by the Steelers on Sunday, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.

    Marjan went 3-for-3 on extra-point attempts while missing a 44-yard field-goal try over two preseason games with the Steelers before being let go. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, there's a good chance he remains with Pittsburgh as a member of the team's practice squad.

  • Sam Scott RB | NYJ

    Sam Scott: Waived/injured by New York

    The Jets waived/injured Scott (undisclosed) on Sunday.

    Scott will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears, will revert to the Jets' injured reserve list. If he reverts to IR, the undrafted free agent out of Wyoming will miss the entirety of the 2026 regular season unless he is waived with an injury settlement. Scott has also played snaps at linebacker, so if he desires a shot at free agency, he could provide a versatile special teams presence for any team in need.

  • Caullin Lacy WR | NYJ

    Caullin Lacy: Let go by New York

    The Jets waived/injured Lacy (undisclosed) on Sunday.

    The undrafted free agent out of Louisville will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears will revert to the Jets' injured reserve list. If Lacy reverts to IR, he will miss the entirety of the 2026 regular season unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

  • Jets' Dominic Richardson: Signs with New York

    The Jets signed Richardson to a contract Sunday.

    Richardson was waived by the Titans last Wednesday and went unclaimed. The running back likely caught on with the Jets due to the injuries to Breece Hall (groin) and Isaiah Davis (knee). Richardson is likely just a preseason depth signing and will not have much sticking power with the team past August.

  • Dae'Quan Wright: Waived, could return to college

    Wright was waived by the Browns on Sunday, and the Ole Miss product could return to college if he clears waivers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Wright is one of several rookies who are exploring returning to college after being deemed eligible to return for a fifth year. He has an agreement in place to play at LSU in 2026, but that will only happen if does not get claimed off waivers by another NFL team. Wright could be the first of many players to rejoin the college ranks after catching on with an NFL team during the offseason.
