Hankins (back) was moved to the reserve/non-football injury list Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Hankins will miss the first four games of the regular season as a result of this move. The veteran defensive tackle saw significant playing time on the interior of Seattle's defensive line last season, accruing 30 tackles (15 solo) in 17 games.

Steiner (undisclosed) was waived with an injury designation Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Steiner won't play in 2025 due to this move. The fullback out of Washington State had signed with the Seahawks earlier in August.

Lang was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The Seahawks are keeping four tight ends on their initial 53-man roster, but Lang isn't among them. The rookie out of Northwestern could resurface on the practice squad after passing through waivers.

Broden was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Broden joined the organization as an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas but unsurprisingly failed to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. He's a candidate to wind up on Seattle's practice squad after passing through waivers.

Plumlee (undisclosed) was waived with an injury designation Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Plumlee is set to miss the 2025 campaign as a result of this move. The college quarterback turned wide receiver has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game.

Holani was named the No. 3 running back after the Seahawks waived Damien Martinez on Tuesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

An undrafted free agent in 2024, Holani was far from a roster lock after he suited up in just five games during his rookie season before the Seahawks selected Martinez in the seventh round. Holani earned his spot during a short but definitive preseason, as he rushed 12 times for 110 yards (9.2 YPC) and a touchdown while mixing in on the kick return. The Boise State product carries little fantasy value as long as Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet are healthy, but Holani's a fine stash in deeper dynasty leagues due to Walker's injury history.

White was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

White was drafted by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft but won't be on the team's initial 53-man roster. The rookie out of UNLV is likely to stick around on the practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said Wednesday that the team expects Achane (calf) to suit up Week 1 versus the Colts, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Achane remained absent from practice Tuesday as he continues to manage a calf injury, but all signals from Miami have been that the team is simply taking a cautious approach to the starting running back's recovery and that he should be back in action in advance of the regular-season opener at Indianapolis on Sunday, Sept. 7. On the other hand, Jaylen Wright (leg) may not be ready to go versus the Colts, so no matter how much confidence rookie sixth-rounder Ollie Gordon has earned after his impressive preseason, the Dolphins figure to actively pursue the running back position with waiver claims and practice-squad signings Wednesday in the wake of NFL-wide cut-downs to a 53-man roster.

Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer indicated Tuesday that Parsons would be considered medically cleared to practice, Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 'would be' is doing a lot of work in that statement, as Parsons likely isn't going to show up for practice to confirm it while he remains in a contract dispute with the team. It's another sign that the star edge rusher's health isn't the thing keeping him off the field, however. Schottenheimer, as well as teammates like Dak Prescott and Trevon Diggs, still seem confident that a deal will get worked out and Parsons will be in the lineup for a season-opening tilt against the Eagles, but without any practice time ahead of Week 1, his workload could be limited out of the gate. "Do I think he would play 75 plays and every play? Probably not," Schottenheimer said Tuesday. "I don't think that that's [realistic]. But I do think that he can be very disruptive like we all know."

The Cowboys are seven-point underdogs against the Eagles at online sports betting sites. 

Dabney was waived Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Dabney didn't make the cut, as the Titans kept only three tight ends on their initial 53-man roster: Chig Okonkwo, Gunnar Helm and David Martin-Robinson. The rookie out of TCU is expected to pass through waivers unclaimed.
