The Jaguars waived/injured Bradley (undisclosed) on Sunday, John Oehser reports.

Bradley played in all three preseason games for the Jaguars, completing 24 of his 45 pass attempts (53 percent) for 233 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions. The Jaguars traded for second-year quarterback Quinn Ewers on Saturday, making Bradley's role as the reserve option obsolete. The quarterback will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears will revert to the Jaguars' injured reserve list. If Bradley reverts to IR, he will miss the entirety of the 2026 regular season unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

The Packers waived/injured Yassmin (undisclosed) on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

Yassmin signed with the Packers in late July through the NFL's International Player Pathway program. The tight end participated in the Packers' first two preseason games, catching his sole target for six yards. The Australian missed Friday's preseason finale due to an unknown injury and will now be placed on waivers. If Yassmin goes unclaimed, he will revert to the Packers' injured reserve list. Once on IR, the tight end will spend the entirety of the 2026 regular season there unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

Musgrave (neck) was moved to the reserve/PUP list Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports.

Musgrave missed the entirety of the preseason while on the active/PUP list with a neck injury that he suffered during OTAs in June. The oft-injured tight end will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the regular season. In his absence, newly acquired veteran Jonnu Smith will likely operate as the primary backup behind starting tight end Tucker Kraft (knee).

The Packers waived/injured Castles (undisclosed) on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

The Packers signed Castles in early August after waiving him in late April. The tight end participated in all three preseason games for the Packers but did not show up in the box score. Castles will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears will revert to the Packers' injured reserve list. If the 26-year-old reverts to IR, he will spend the entirety of the 2026 season there unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

Jefferson will be a member of the Chargers' initial 53-man roster, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Jefferson will ultimately stick around with the Chargers after it was reported that he was released earlier in the day. The team opened up a pair of roster spots by making some trades Sunday, so the safety won't be packing his bags. Jefferson played in 13 regular-season contests with Los Angeles last season, compiling 57 total tackles (37 solo) and seven passes defensed, including a career-high four interceptions.

The Jets placed Payne (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday with a designation to return, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.

Payne suffered an unknown issue in early August that was set to sideline him for three to four weeks. The free safety's timeline appears to have been extended, and Payne will need to miss the first four games of the season at least before he is eligible to return to the Jets' active roster from IR.

The Jets placed Cooper (shoulder) on injured reserve Sunday with a designation to return, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.

Cooper suffered a shoulder injury during Friday's preseason finale against the Giants. The rookie sixth-rounder is set to be a primary piece of depth for the Jets' offensive line throughout 2026. Cooper will be required to miss at least the first four games of the regular season until he is eligible to return to the Jets' active roster.

The Giants waived Hyatt on Sunday, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.

Hyatt played in eight regular-season games for the Giants in 2025, logging five receptions for 35 yards. The wide receiver has fallen short of the 53-man roster, leaving No. 13 open for new addition Odell Beckham. Hyatt will now be subject to waivers and if he clears will become a free agent able to sign with any organization.

The Ravens did not place Madubuike (neck) on injured reserve Sunday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

The Ravens deemed Madubuike's neck injury surmountable enough that he will likely be able to play before Week 5 of the regular season. While the star defensive tackle may not be able to suit up for Week 1, the team clearly thinks he is close enough that they will utilize a 53-man roster spot on the 28-year-old from the jump. While Madubuike finishes his recovery, Broderick Washington will likely start alongside Travis Jones and Calais Campbell on the interior defensive line.

The Lions placed Joseph (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Sunday, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.

Joseph was placed on the active/PUP list in late July and missed the entirety of the preseason due to a lingering knee injury he suffered during Week 6 of the 2025 campaign. The safety will need to miss the first four games of the season at least before he is eligible to return to the Lions' active roster. With Brian Branch (Achilles) also on the reserve/PUP list, Avonte Maddox and Chuck Clark will likely be the starting safety duo for the Lions' Week 1 contest against the Saints.
