Grant (undisclosed) is considered week-to-week, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

The 2025 first-rounder is sidelined for the time being as the regular season approaches in just under a month. Grant's absence coincides with Zach Sieler's week-to-week issue, which puts a spotlight on Miami's interior defensive line depth for the remainder of training camp.

McKitty signed with the Commanders on Tuesday.

The 2021 third-rounder is back with a team for the first time since being waived by the Texans in August 2025. McKitty has not played in a regular-season game since 2023, when he was a member of the Chargers.

Higgins needed help getting to his feet after he was shaken up during Tuesday's practice, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

On the plus side, the wideout walked off on his own power. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Higgins subsequently headed off the field to get checked out by team medical personnel. Afterward, coach DeMeco Ryans noted that he didn't have an immediate update on his status, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Consider Higgins day-to-day as Thursday's preseason contest against the Raiders approaches.

Thornton (undisclosed) exited Tuesday's practice on a cart, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.

The reason behind Thornton's exit has yet to be disclosed. He's been firmly in the mix for a top-three spot on the Kansas City wide receiver depth chart, but if Thornton is required to miss time, fifth-round rookie Cyrus Allen and 2025 fourth-round pick Jalen Royals would get increased opportunities to make an impression on the coaching staff.

Cracraft (undisclosed) was placed on the Reserve/Injured List by the Commanders on Tuesday.

Washington placed both Cracraft and Jerome Ford to IR on Tuesday amid a flurry of roster moves. Cracraft played in two games for the Commanders at the end of the 2025 season and will now likely miss the 2026 campaign.

Ford (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Commanders on Tuesday.

The former Brown will miss the season due to an injury unless he is released with an injury settlement. Ford was brought in during free agency for backfield and kick return depth.

Reiger (undisclosed) was waived/injured by the Dolphins on Tuesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

The Dolphins brought in Seth Coleman in a corresponding move as the club continues its roster churn this summer. Reiger was brought in as an undrafted free agent this offseason and is now subject to waivers.

Head coach Matt LaFleur said that he plans for Love and the Packers' other offensive starters to take some snaps during Friday's preseason game versus the Broncos, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Love looks poised to play for the second week in a row after he took the field for the opening series in Thursday's 28-9 loss to the Steelers in the exhibition opener. While LaFleur didn't go into specifics regarding his plan for Love's workload, the quarterback will likely be in line to play more than the one possession, but perhaps not much more than that. LaFleur added that Love is unlikely to play in the preseason finale Aug. 28 versus the Cardinals.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Tuesday that Sadiq (hernia) is "getting closer" to a return and remains on track to be ready to go for the start of the regular season, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Sadiq has yet to return to team drills since suffering a setback in his recovery from hernia surgery in the first week of August, but he was spotted working out off to the side of practice Tuesday and looks to be progressing on some level. Glenn indicated that the Jets' main focus is ensuring that the rookie first-round pick is available to play Week 1, so Sadiq may not be rushed back for either of the team's final two preseason games without a full week of practice beforehand. Given the draft capital invested in Sadiq, the Jets eventually plan for him to serve as their clear No. 1 tight end, but he could end up sharing reps with Mason Taylor early in the season after missing out on valuable practice time during the summer.

Hall (groin) will be sidelined for 2-to-3 weeks, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

The groin injury Hall sustained Monday will cost him the rest of the preseason, but if things go as planned, head coach Aaron Glenn anticipates he will be ready for the start of the regular season. Hall's absence will afford Braelon Allen -- and presumably Isaiah Davis (knee) if healthy -- more reps with the starters over the remainder of camp.
