Odeyingbo made one tackle assist in Saturday's preseason opener against the Browns.

Odeyingbo played 12 defensive snaps in the contest, good for 18 percent of the Bears' defensive plays. The defensive end has just recovered from an Achilles tendon tear and was quickly shut down alongside the rest of the starters after gaining a glimpse of 2026 NFL action.

Lewis made one tackle assist during Saturday's preseason opener against the Browns.

The starting free safety played just 15 percent of the Bears' defensive snaps in the contest, participating in just 10 defensive plays. Any playing time is a good sign for Lewis, who has recently healed from a leg injury where he needed to be carted off the practice field. The 29-year-old will likely see a similar snap share in Saturday's preseason contest against the Bengals.

Olave did not play in the Saints' 24-20 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday.

Olave watched from the sidelines along with a group of New Orleans' key starters, including QB Tyler Shough, RB Travis Etienne, TE Juwan Johnson and others. Third-year wideout Bub Means led the Saints with four catches (on five targets) for 77 yards while Zach Wilson, Hunter Dekkers and Spencer Rattler all cycled in under center. Olave is coming off a career-best 2025 campaign when he recorded 100 catches (on 155 targets) for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns across 16 regular-season games. He also signed a four-year extension worth up to $132 million this offseason, and he should be in line for another productive season while catching passes from Shough in 2026. Olave's next chance to play this preseason will come Saturday, Aug. 22 versus the Rams.

Allegretti (calf) is expected to practice in some capacity Tuesday, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

Allegretti has been nursing a calf injury since early August, but he now appears to be close to full health. The 30-year-old is competing to earn the starting role at center in 2026, and he'll have a chance to play in Saturday's preseason matchup with the Lions.

Eguakun logged 33 offensive snaps during Saturday's preseason opener against the Bears.

The depth offensive lineman got valuable reps at center for the Browns during the contest. With Parker Brailsford (hand) dealing with an injury, the more versatile Eguakun can be, the higher the chance he makes the 53-man roster.

The Dolphins placed Salyer (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday.

Sayler likely suffered an injury in Friday night's preseason opener against the Commanders. The depth offensive lineman will now miss the entirety of the 2026 season on injured reserve unless he is waived with an injury designation.

The Buccaneers hosted Wiley for a tryout on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Wiley was waived by the Buccaneers with a non-football injury in early May. Now that the running back has regained his health, he is looking to make a return to the organization that maintained him throughout the offseason. The Buccaneers appear to be in the market for running backs, with Barika Kpeenu signing with the team Sunday.

Dennis-Sutton (illness) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

The fourth-round rookie is set to be a key piece of the Packers' linebacker depth in 2026. If Dennis-Sutton cannot recover quickly from the illness, he could miss Friday's preseason contest against the Broncos.

Jackson (core) was a full participant in Sunday's practice, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Jackson appears to have fully recovered from his offseason core surgery. The rookie sixth-rounder's training camp debut is just the beginning, as he will need to prove that he can be a key contributor on special teams to earn a spot on the 53-man roster.

The Raiders released Jones on Sunday.

The veteran defensive tackle played 14 regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2025, totaling 15 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks. Jones is now a free agent able to sign with any organization. The 6-foot-1, 335-pounder could look to sign with a team in need of an experienced nose tackle or 1-technique such as the Bears or Bills.
