Green Bay waived Biber on Tuesday.

Just a week after signing with the Packers as an undrafted free agent, Biber is now set to become a free agent again if he's not claimed by another team during the current waiver period. His departure could create more opportunities for Messiah Swinson and McCallan Castles.

The Lions waived Kitselman (leg) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Kitselman suffered a leg injury during a practice session in early August, which prompted the Lions to place the 23-year-old tight end on injured reserve this past Wednesday. He would have been forced to miss the entire 2026 season while on IR, but the settlement allows Kitselman to sign and play with a team once he's fully healthy.

Gonzalez (undisclosed) did not participate in Tuesday's training camp practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Gonzalez appeared to pick up a minor injury toward the tail end of Monday's practice, but the 2023 first-rounder is also in the midst of contract extension talks with the Patriots in an effort to become the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL. It's unclear whether Gonzalez will be available for Thursday's preseason opener against the Colts.

The Browns cut Anderson (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Anderson was set to miss the entire 2026 season after reverting to the Browns' injured reserve Aug. 5, but the settlement allows the LSU product to sign with a team once he's fully healthy. Anderson signed with the Browns in mid-May as an undrafted free agent following a three-year college career at LSU.

The Texans released Turner (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Turner was set to miss the entire 2026 season after being placed on injured reserve Aug. 4, but the settlement allows him to sign with a team once he's fully recovered from his unspecified injury. Turner joined the NFL in May of 2021 as an undrafted free agent and had his most productive regular season in 2024 with the Raiders, when he caught 16 passes (on 29 targets) for 158 yards and one touchdown while adding five carries for 33 yards and a score over 12 games. He also has experience as a returner on special teams, which could help him catch on with a team once he's healthy.

Bernard will have the opportunity to handle an expanded role in Thursday's preseason opener against the Packers due to injuries to both Michael Pittman (right leg) and DK Metcalf (undisclosed), Jacob Punturi of SI.com reports.

The Steelers released their initial depth chart Aug. 5, which had Roman Wilson pencilled in as the WR3 behind Pittman and Metcalf, while Bernard was listed as a second-teamer. A second-round selection of the Steelers in the 2026 NFL Draft, Bernard has been battling against Wilson for a spot in three-wide sets, and Thursday's preseason game will provide a stage on which both wideouts can audition for that role.

The Dolphins listed Wright as the No. 2 running back on the team's first unofficial depth chart released Tuesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Depth charts released in training camp are fluid and subject to change, but it looks like Wright is ahead of 2025 sixth-rounder Ollie Gordon for the main backup role behind De'Von Achane. Wright missed the first six games of 2025 due to a knee injury, but he had his moments when he was healthy, including a Week 14 performance against the Jets in which he turned 24 carries into 107 yards and a touchdown. Friday's preseason opener against the Commanders will provide Wright's first in-game opportunity to separate himself from Gordon.

The Eagles released Mitchell (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Mitchell was originally slated to miss the entire 2026 season after being placed on the Eagles' IR on Monday. However, with the injury settlement, the 2021 sixth-rounder will have the opportunity to sign with a team once he's fully healthy. Mitchell's lone appearance in the 2025 regular season with the Chiefs was against the Broncos in Week 7, when he failed to haul in his lone target while playing seven snaps on offense.

The Browns claimed Wright off waivers from the Eagles on Tuesday.

Wright is on the Browns' 90-man roster one day after being waived by the Eagles. The Ole Miss product is a long shot to make Cleveland's 53-man roster for the upcoming season, but a strong audition in training camp and preseason games could be enough for him to stick around on the practice squad.

Browning may not play in Friday's preseason game against the Jets due to a back injury, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

With Baker Mayfield not scheduled to play Friday, Browning was slated to serve as the team's starter, with Connor Bazelak and Jalon Daniels also in the mix for reps. However, Browning strained his back toward the tail end of Tuesday's joint practice with the Jets, which puts him in jeopardy of missing Friday's preseason opener.
