Mitchell-Paden was elevated from the Ravens' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Mitchell-Paden was also elevated for the Ravens' Week 1 loss to the Bills, playing 22 total snaps (15 offensive and seven on special teams) and failing to record a stat. Now back with Baltimore's active roster, he's expected to serve as a depth piece in the team's tight end corps due to Isaiah Likely (foot) being sidelined Sunday.

The Dolphins placed Jackson (toe) on injured reserve Saturday.

Jackson will now be forced to miss at least four games after having aggravated a toe injury during the team's Week 1 loss to the Colts. With Jackson sidelined, Larry Borom will likely start at right tackle for Miami.

Wilson was elevated from the Dolphins' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

The 29-year-old will now join the Dolphins' active roster for the second consecutive week, providing extra depth at running back due to Jaylen Wright (knee) likely being out again in the Week 2 matchup against the Patriots. Wilson played just one offensive snap in Miami's Week 1 loss, so he's likely to play a depth role in the team's backfield once again Sunday.

Patterson was elevated from the Dolphins' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

The 29-year-old didn't attempt a kick in the Dolphins' Week 1 loss to the Colts while filling in for the injured Jason Sanders (hip), but it now appears he'll have another opportunity to score in a Week 2 matchup against the Patriots. Patterson appeared in five games for the Falcons, Browns and Jets in 2024, converting on all 16 of his extra-point attempts.

The Titans waived Crenshaw-Dickson on Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Crenshaw-Dickson had initially made Tennessee's 53-man roster after having signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in May but is now headed to waivers. Should he end up going unclaimed, the 24-year-old could be a candidate to land on the the Titans' practice squad.

The Falcons elevated Romo from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

After Younghoe Koo missed a game-tying field-goal try late in the fourth quarter in the team's Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers, the Falcons worked out a number of kickers Monday. Atlanta ultimately signed Romo to its practice squad following his workout, and the 28-year-old will now get the chance to take over as the team's kicker for at least one week. The Falcons have already announced that Koo won't make the trip to Minnesota for Sunday's game in a coach's decision, paving the way for Romo to step in and potentially earn himself a longer-term stay in Atlanta if he performs well in his team debut. Romo's previous NFL action came with Minnesota in 2024, when he converted 11 of 12 field-goal tries and seven of eight extra-point attempts over four games.

Smith and the Cowboys agreed to a four-year, $96 million extension Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Since Dallas traded pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Packers on the eve of the regular season, the team has locked in CB DaRon Bland (foot) and now Smith to long-term deals. With $81.2 million guaranteed and an average annual value of $24 million per season, Smith's new contract has made him the highest-paid left guard in the NFL.

Head coach Pete Carroll expects Bowers (knee) to play in Monday's game versus the Chargers, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Carroll added that Bowers "looked terrific" at Saturday's practice, which was his first practice of the week after being a non-participant Thursday and Friday. Bowers was exceptional in the season opener despite playing just 50 percent of the snaps, as he caught five of eight targets for 103 yards. The Raiders will reveal his official status at some point Saturday, but he's certainly trending in a positive direction.

The Titans added Levin to their active roster from their practice squad Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Levin will get another chance on the team's 53-man roster after having been let go back in August. He played one snap during the team's Week 1 loss versus the Broncos and could have a chance to see playing time once again in Sunday's matchup versus the Rams.

Sills signed with the Falcons' active roster Saturday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

Sills was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for the Falcons' Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers, playing two offensive snaps and failing to record a stat. Now that he's signed to the active roster, the 29-year-old is expected to play a depth role in Atlanta's wide receiver corps in the Week 2 matchup against the Vikings. In a corresponding move, Jordan Fuller (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
