Chiefs' Omarr Norman-Lott: Moved to reserve/PUP list
Norman-Lott (knee) was moved to the reserve/PUP list by the Chiefs on Sunday.
Norman-Lott was placed on the active/PUP list ahead of training camp, and he did not appear in a preseason game as he continues to recover from a torn ACL that he suffered in October. The defensive lineman will now be forced to miss at least four contests to begin the regular season, and in his absence, rookie first-rounder Peter Woods will handle the primary reserve role at defensive tackle behind Chris Jones and Khyiris Tonga.

Braxton Berrios WR | NYG
Braxton Berrios: Rejoining Giants on practice squad
Berrios is re-signing with the Giants' practice squad, and there's an expectation that he'll play a role Week 1, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Berrios was among the Giants' notable cuts Sunday as the team rolled with just five wide receivers on its initial active roster. Now, front offices across the NFL are constructing practice squads, with Berrios expected to end up back in New York. He'll need to be elevated or signed off the practice squad outright to be available for the season opener against the Cowboys on Sunday, Sept. 13, at which point he'd likely take on a bit role in the offense.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine WR | IND
Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Let go by Indianapolis
Westbrook-Ikhine was released by the Colts on Sunday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official website reports.
Westbrook-Ikhine signed with the Colts in March, and he was reportedly in contention to earn the No. 3 wide receiver role behind Alec Pierce (ankle) and Josh Downs (calf) in 2026. Westbrook-Ikhine caught two of three targets for 36 yards over the team's three preseason contests, but he didn't show enough for Indianapolis to keep him as a member of its initial 53-man roster. The 29-year-old caught 11 of 20 targets for 89 yards over 15 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2025, and he'll likely find another opportunity in the near future.
