Lockhart (undisclosed) was waived by Kansas City with an injury designation Tuesday, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

Lockhart will head to waivers despite having just signed with the team Monday as an undrafted free agent. If he clears waivers, 6-foot-3 receiver could land on Kansas City's injured reserve, which would force him to miss the entire 2025 campaign.

Carr (shoulder) has been to New Orleans twice in recent weeks to meet with the Saints' team doctor, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.

Carr ended the 2025 season on the sidelines with a broken left hand and an oblique injury that he suffered in Week 14 against the Giants, but it has now come to light that his current shoulder issue stems from that same game. The quarterback apparently didn't notice the issue right away due to being shut down from throwing while recovering from the aforementioned injuries. Once he began ramping up for the team's spring program, the shoulder problem became apparent. Carr has yet to make a decision on if he'll undergo surgery, and his availability for the start of the season remains unclear. Tyler Shough, taken in the second round of the 2025 Draft, could emerge as the starting QB if Carr misses time.

Holiday signed a contract with Kansas City on Tuesday, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

Holiday impressed at the team's rookie minicamp, earning himself a deal ahead of the 2025 campaign. The 6-foot-1, 211-pound wide receiver went unselected in April's 2025 NFL Draft after catching 39 of 64 targets for 476 yards and two touchdowns while also turning 48 carries into 182 yards and four scores over 13 contests with Louisiana Tech in 2024. Holiday will compete for a spot on Kansas City's 53-man roster in 2025.

Hill (foot) was spotted with a boot on his left foot at the Bengals' voluntary workouts Tuesday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Hill signed a three-year contract with the Bengals in March after posting 56 total tackles (25 solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed over 15 regular-season games with the team in 2024. The defensive tackle is now dealing with an unspecified left foot injury and it's unclear if it'll cause him to miss Cincinnati's OTAs later this month.

Fiske has resumed participating in on-field workouts and said Tuesday he feels in a "really good spot" in his recovery from offseason knee surgery, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

Fiske required a minor offseason procedure to address the knee injury he sustained during the Rams' NFC divisional-round loss to the Eagles, but a video posted by the team Tuesday shows the 2024 second-round pick already demonstrating mobility and burst during his workouts. Fresh off an impressive debut campaign in which he led all rookies with 8.5 sacks during the regular season, Fiske appears on track to enter his second NFL campaign at full strength and remain a difference maker for Los Angeles' defense.

Strong will compete for slotting in a Cleveland backfield that includes returnee Jerome Ford, as well as rookies Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

A concussion prevented Strong from suiting up for the Browns' season finale in 2024, but now that he's presumably past the issue, the 2022 fourth-rounder -- who is in the last year of his rookie contract -- will attempt to retain his depth role in the team's backfield. He is an option in the return game, but as long as Judkins and Sampson stay healthy, Strong may not have much of a role in the offense after logging 26 carries for 108 yards and a 14-104-0 receiving line on 22 targets in 14 games last year.

The Chiefs waived Rochell on Monday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Rochell inked a one-year deal with Kansas City in late March, but the team's 2025 rookie class seems to have made his spot on the roster redundant. The cornerback played a notable role on special teams for Green Bay in 2023 and 2024, in which span he suited up for 20 regular-season games.

Deguara signed with the Cardinals on Monday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.

A 2020 third-round pick of the Packers who spent 2024 with the Jaguars, Deguara has 50 career catches for 450 yards and two touchdowns, including three catches for 14 yards a year ago. He has played on over 800 special-teams snaps over the course of his career, and he could earn a role that way on the Cardinals. Arizona's tight end room is led by Trey McBride, who caught 111 passes for 1,146 yards in 2024, and then Tip Reiman and Elijah Higgins.

Major signed with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent Monday, Glenn Erby of USA Today reports.

The running back never exceeded 78 carries in any of his six collegiate seasons with Oklahoma and Minnesota. In 2024 with latter university, he finished with 352 rushing yards and three rushing scores to go with 20 catches for 144 yards and a touchdown. Baltimore's top two backs, Derrick Henry and Justice Hill, were big contributors to the team's elite offense in 2024, though there should be roster spots available behind them.

Lockhart signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent Monday, Matt McMullen of the team's official site reports.

The wide receiver caught 53 passes for 983 yards and five scores in 2024 at San Jose State. Lockhart also averaged 18.5 yards per catch last season. His big-play ability should at least get him a real look from a team known to value that skill.
