  • Albert Okwuegbunam: Let go by Indianapolis

    The Colts cut Okwuegbunam on Thursday.

    Okwuegbunam signed with the Colts' practice squad last December but didn't appear in a regular-season game during the 2024 campaign. The 27-year-old clearly didn't show enough in practice this offseason behind Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox, Drew Ogletree, Jelani Woods and Will Mallory. Okwuegbunam's NFL career appears to be running on fumes, with him having last logged a regular-season reception back in the 2022 campaign with Denver.

    Colts' David Long: Placed on injured reserve

    The Colts placed Long (groin) on injured reserve Thursday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    With his placement on injured reserve ahead of Week 1, Long will be required to miss the entirety of the 2025 season unless the Colts later cut him with an injury settlement once he's healthy. Long appeared in 13 regular-season games for Indy last season but didn't register a single tackle on 106 special-teams snaps.

  • Hunter Dekkers: Cut by New Orleans

    The Saints waived Dekkers on Thursday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    New Orleans doesn't have the reps to give Dekkers, as the team is trying to sort out its starting quarterback situation by giving second-round rookie Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener meaningful snaps this summer. Dekkers will try to find work as a camp arm elsewhere.

  • Eagles' Terrace Marshall: Remains idle with knee injury

    Marshall (knee) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Marshall was injured during Tuesday's session and hasn't practiced since. The 25-year-old signed with the Eagles back in April after spending 2024 with the Panthers, 49ers and Raiders. Marshall appeared in seven regular-season games last season, all with Las Vegas, and caught three passes for 41 yards on six targets. He's trying to win a job in a top-heavy Philadelphia wideout room behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Jobs are up for grabs behind the two locked-in starters, but Marshall needs to get healthy.

  • Buccaneers' Lavonte David: Managing leg injury and soreness

    David is day-to-day with a leg injury and soreness, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    David is 35 years old and entering his 14th NFL season, so there's no reason for the Bucs to push the veteran linebacker during training camp. He knows the defense and is coming off a 2024 campaign that saw David start all 17 regular-season contests, finishing with 122 tackles (76 solo), including 5.5 sacks, his most since 2017.

  • Caleb Ransaw SAF | JAC

    Jaguars' Caleb Ransaw: Dealing with lower-body injury

    Ransaw is week-to-week with a lower-body injury, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Ransaw was taken in the third round of the 2025 Draft, 88th overall, by Jacksonville but will now miss a good chunk of training camp action. He's looking to compete for safety snaps behind Eric Murray and Darnell Savage on the back end of the defense.

  • DJ Williams RB | TB

    D.J. Williams: Cut by Tampa Bay

    The Bucs waived Williams (undisclosed) on Thursday.

    The Bucs swapped out Williams for Owen Wright in the backfield. Williams, who was waived with an injury designation, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports, appeared in one regular-season game for Tampa Bay last season, returning a pair of kickoffs for 54 yards. He didn't see any snaps on offense.

  • Kole Taylor TE | CIN

    Kole Taylor: Cut by Cincinnati

    The Bengals waived Taylor on Thursday.

    Taylor signed with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent following the 2025 Draft. He's out of a roster spot after the team signed veteran TE Noah Fant on Thursday.

  • Buccaneers' Kameron Johnson: Out with injury

    Johnson (undisclosed) hasn't practiced since last week at Tampa Bay's camp, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Johnson can't afford to miss much time, as he's competing with Sterling Shepard, Trey Palmer (hamstring), Ryan Miller and Rakim Jarrett, among others, for jobs behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin (ankle), Emeka Egbuka and Jalen McMillan in Tampa Bay's wide-receiver corps. Johnson appeared in five regular-season games last season, failing to catch his lone target while rushing two times for 11 yards.

  • Trey Palmer WR | NO

    Buccaneers' Trey Palmer: Missing time with hamstring injury

    Palmer (hamstring) missed practice Thursday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Palmer is in a fight for a roster spot and can't afford to miss much action. He's competing with the likes of Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson, Ryan Miller, Rakim Jarrett and Kameron Johnson (undisclosed) for jobs behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin (ankle), Emeka Egbuka and Jalen McMillan in Tampa Bay. Palmer's playing time was cut by more than half last season compared to 2023, and he posted a 12-172-1 receiving line on 305 offensive snaps over 15 regular-season contests.
