Olszewski was released by the Giants on Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

The wide receiver signed with New York in late July after spending most of 2024 on the club's injured reserve list. Olszewski recorded over 300 punt-return yards and over 400 kick-return yards in both the 2020 and '21 campaigns with New England, and his success as a returner was expected to give him a chance to compete for a role with the Giants, but it was not enough to earn him a spot. Now, the former Patriot, Steeler and Giant will have to look elsewhere for his next opportunity.

The Cowboys signed Goodwin to their active roster Wednesday.

After being released Tuesday, the Cowboys signed Goodwin to the active roster Wednesday. The signing was made possible by the Cowboys moving two players to injured reserve, opening up a roster spot for the veteran cornerback. Goodwin should provide experienced depth in the Cowboys' defensive backfield in 2025.

Murray (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve with the Bears on Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Murray was waived with an injury designation Tuesday after suffering an undisclosed injury during training camp. The offensive lineman is now set to miss the entirety of the 2025 campaign while on IR, unless he's able to reach an injury settlement with Chicago.

Ogbongbemiga (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, but with a designation to return.

The linebacker can come back after missing the minimum of four regular-season games. Ogbongbemiga suffered a shoulder injury during the Bears' preseason opener but returned in time for the team's second preseason game Aug. 17 against the Bills, so it's unclear if this issue is related to that one. The former Charger saw action on 362 special-teams snaps and 15 defensive snaps for Chicago last year, making 13 tackles (seven solo).

Johnson (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve with the Bears on Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Johnson was waived with an injury designation after suffering an undisclosed injury during training camp. He will now be forced to miss the entirety of the 2025 season while on IR, unless he's able to reach an injury settlement with Chicago.

Carter (ankle) cleared waivers Wednesday and reverted to injured reserve, per the NFL's official media site.

Carter suffered an ankle injury during the preseason finale. The 26-year-old offensive lineman played 10 games (two starts) with the Bears in 2023. He'll remain on injured reserve for the rest of the season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

Jackson (foot) practiced Wednesday, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports.

The return came just days after Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said that his starting right tackle was on track to play in Week 1 at Indianapolis, per C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald. Jackson suffered the injury in early August and had to sit out for most of training camp. The 2020 first-round pick has started 55 of the 57 games, regular season and postseason, in which he's played since entering the league.

Rogers (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Chargers on Wednesday.

Rogers suffered an undisclosed injury in the team's second preseason contest Aug. 10 versus the Saints, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the 2025 campaign. In his absence, Benjamin St-Juste and Nikko Reed will see an increase in workload at cornerback.

The 49ers released Moreau (undisclosed) on Tuesday.

Moreau dealt with an undisclosed injury during the preseason, but he's back to full health while he looks for his next home. Moreau handled starter reps in Denver back in 2023, but the 31-year-old cornerback played just 94 defensive snaps across seven games with the Vikings last year.

Owens (undisclosed) reverted to the Bills' injured reserve list Wednesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Owens was waived with an injury designation Saturday and then went unclaimed on waivers. The safety will now need to miss the 2025 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with Buffalo. The New Hampshire product signed with the Bills as an undrafted free agent in May.
