Brandon Jones SAF | DEN
Broncos' Brandon Jones: In pads at camp
Jones (pectoral) is participating at the Broncos' training camp, Gabriel Christus of the team's official site reports.
Jones ended the 2025 season on IR after suffering a pectoral injury in December that required surgery to address, but he's now back in action with training camp underway. He projects to start at safety next to Talanoa Hufanga again in 2026.

Cole Burgess WR | PIT
Steelers' Cole Burgess: Heads to IR
Burgess (undisclosed) reverted from waivers to Pittsburgh's injured reserve list Wednesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Burgess did not get claimed by another club after the Steelers waived him with an injury designation Tuesday, and he's now in line to spend the entire 2026 season on IR. His being out could open up more practice opportunities for guys like Max Hurleman and Brandon Smith.

Aaron Anderson WR | CLE
Browns' Aaron Anderson: Reverts to IR
Anderson (undisclosed) reverted from waivers to Cleveland's injured reserve list Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Anderson was not claimed by another team after the Browns waived him with an injury designation Tuesday, and now he's set to spend the 2026 campaign on IR. His absence clears more room for players like rookie undrafted free agents Luke Floriea and Kole Wilson to compete for spots on the final 53-man roster.

Zack Kuntz TE | DAL
Zack Kuntz: Gets let go by Raiders
Las Vegas waived Kuntz on Wednesday.
Less than a week after signing Kuntz, the Raiders have now decided to part ways with him. In a corresponding transaction, Las Vegas signed veteran tight end Chris Myarick, who has more in-game experience.

Chris Myarick TE | LV
Raiders' Chris Myarick: Joining up with Raiders
Las Vegas signed Myarick on Wednesday.
Myarick missed the cut for Miami's 53-man roster in 2025, but he's now getting another chance to compete with a new club. At a minimum, he will probably be able to handle some of the practice reps voided by Michael Mayer as he deals with a nose injury.

Tarik Black WR | DET
Lions' Tarik Black: Signs with Detroit
The Lions signed Black to a contract Wednesday.
Tight end Kitselman's (leg) season-ending injury warranted a move to IR, leaving a roster spot open for Black. The wide receiver was waived by the Lions on Monday to make room for tight end Nick Muse, but now regains a spot on the roster. Monday's experience should show Black that he is teetering on the edge of making the team, so every snap likely needs to be the wide receiver's best.

TJ Harden RB | SEA
Seahawks' TJ Harden: Signs with Seahawks
Seattle signed Harden on Wednesday, Ari Horton of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Just a couple days after being cut by Cleveland, Harden is already getting another chance with a new squad. He's likely a long shot to make the 53-man roster, competing with names like Zach Charbonnet (knee), rookie first-rounder Jadarian Price, George Holani and free agent acquisition Emanuel Wilson.

Miles Kitselman TE | DET
Lions' Miles Kitselman: Placed on reserve/injured list
The Lions placed Kitselman (leg) on the reserve/injured list Wednesday.
Kitselman exited Sunday's practice with a significant leg injury, so this move is not entirely surprising. The tight end will now spend the entirety of the 2026 season on injured reserve unless he is waived with an injury settlement. The Lions signed wide receiver Tarik Black in a corresponding move.
-
Eli Heidenreich RB | PIT
Steelers' Eli Heidenreich: Is set to be RB
Heidenreich is listed as a running back on the Steelers' initial 2026 depth chart, Brian Batko of the team's official site reports.
Heidenreich was signed and listed as both a running back and a wide receiver initially. The 2026 seventh-rounder has lined up in the backfield at an overwhelming rate in training camp, so Wednesday's unofficial depth chart just confirms what was evident. This listing does not mean Heidenreich will not see any downfield action, especially if he makes the 53-man roster, but that he will likely be utilized more as a rusher and pass blocker than as a true outside threat.
-
Kendre Miller RB | NO
Saints' Kendre Miller: Limited with back issue
Miller (back) was limited in Wednesday's training camp session due to injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Miller has transitioned from one injury to another, ridding himself of injury designation for his 2025 torn ACL only to suffer a back issue. The running back has been able to practice through the pain but only in a limited capacity. It is unclear what the timeline for full participation is, but the consistent injured status does not favor Miller as he attempts to beat out Devin Neal for the No. 3 running back role.
