Tampa Bay signed Houston to its practice squad Thursday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Houston's training camp was hampered by injuries, so he'll start the season on the practice squad instead of Tampa Bay's 53-man active roster. His last regular-season action came in 2022, when he caught two of six targets for 16 yards over two games with the Cowboys.

The Eagles signed McCord to the practice squad Thursday.

The rookie sixth-rounder wasn't able to crack the Eagles' 53-man roster, but he'll stay in Philadelphia as the team's scout team quarterback. With Tanner McKee in jeopardy of missing Week 1 due to a thumb injury, McCord could be elevated to the active roster to serve as the Eagles' emergency quarterback behind Jalen Hurts and Sam Howell.

The Buccaneers signed Greene to their practice squad Thursday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

A position change to wide receiver wasn't enough to earn Greene a spot on Tampa Bay's final 53-man roster, but he'll keep running routes on the practice squad. The Bucs are relatively deep at wideout, so it could take multiple injuries for Greene to have a chance at seeing regular-season action in 2025.

The Eagles signed Latu to the practice squad Thursday.

Latu will stay in Philadelphia as a member of the practice squad after being cut at the end of training camp. The tight end out of Alabama has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game since being selected by the 49ers in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. That may change in Week 1 against the Cowboys on Thursday, Sept. 4 if the Eagles need an extra tight end on the active roster, as Dallas Goedert (groin) may not be cleared to play.

The Cowboys waived Flournoy on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Flournoy appeared in 11 regular-season games last season and caught 10 balls for 102 yards on 14 targets. The second-year wideout posted a 7-92-0 receiving line on 13 targets this preseason.

The Seahawks signed Jackson to their practice squad Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Jackson spent training camp with Denver after the team signed him as an undrafted free agent in late April. The Arkansas State product wasn't able to make the Broncos' 53-man roster, but he'll get a chance to make an impression on Seattle's practice squad. Jackson featured as both a wideout and return man in college, which could help him in his bid to get elevated to the active roster down the line.

Tampa Bay signed Bazelak to its practice squad Thursday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

The undrafted rookie couldn't beat out Teddy Bridgewater for a spot on the Buccaneers' final 53-man roster for 2025, but he'll be throwing passes for the team on the practice squad. An injury to Bridgewater or starter Baker Mayfield represents Bazelak's path to an elevation this season.

The Bills waived Prather (undisclosed) with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Prather was cut with an injury designation last week and reverted to the Bills' injured-reserve list once he cleared waivers. He's now free to sign elsewhere after playing 10 offensive snaps during the preseason after Buffalo used a seventh-round pick on Prather back in April.

The Eagles signed Cooks to the practice squad Thursday.

Cooks was cut by the Eagles on Monday, but he'll stick around in Philadelphia as a member of the team's practice squad. He appeared in 11 regular-season games for the Jaguars over the past two years but hasn't recorded a catch since Week 16 of the 2023 campaign.

Houston signed Wayne to its practice squad Thursday.

Wayne was waived by Houston in early August but didn't latch on a with a different team. Instead he's reuniting with the Texans, with whom he got into three regular-season games last year. Wayne also logged 10 offensive snaps in the team's AFC divisional-round playoff loss to the Chiefs.
