Cohen hasn’t appeared in an NFL game since his time in Chicago, where he earned first-team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors as a punt returner, ended in 2020. The North Carolina A&T product had been part of an effective 1-2 punch with Jordan Howard but saw his role diminish with the arrival of David Montgomery in 2019. Since then, injuries have limited the explosive rusher’s ability to make an impact.

NFL Practice Squad Updates: 11/22/23
Here are Wednesday’s practice squad moves:
Arizona Cardinals
- Signed: WR Dan Chisena, DB William Hooper
Carolina Panthers
- Signed: OL Justin McCray, CB AJ Parker
Cleveland Browns
- Signed: S Duron Harmon
Indianapolis Colts
- Signed: S Brandon Wilson
Las Vegas Raiders
- Signed: OLB Elerson Smith
Los Angeles Chargers
- Signed: FB Zander Horvath
Los Angeles Rams
- Signed: RB Darrell Henderson
Minnesota Vikings
- Signed: WR Daylen Baldwin
New York Giants
- Signed: RB Deon Jackson, OL Joshua Miles
New York Jets
- Signed: DT Tanzel Smart
Although the Rams look to be expecting Kyren Williams to be activated for Week 12, they will keep Henderson around as insurance. The Rams turned to their former third-round pick immediately after injuries moved Williams and Ronnie Rivers off the roster. Despite waiving Henderson in November 2022, the Rams plugged him back in. While Royce Freeman‘s per-carry numbers (4.3) outshine Henderson’s (2.4), the latter scored two touchdowns during his latest run in Sean McVay‘s system. While the Rams waived Henderson again Tuesday, Freeman remains on Los Angeles’ active roster.
Harmon will join team No. 3 this season. The former Patriots Super Bowl winner, a Raider in 2022, began the season with the Ravens. The Bears signed Harmon off Baltimore’s practice squad last month. Harmon, 32, would represent a veteran safety presence for a Browns team that just lost Rodney McLeod for the season.
Minor NFL Transactions: 9/5/23
Today’s minor moves:
Las Vegas Raiders
- Waived from IR: CB Jordan Perryman, WR Isaiah Zuber
Los Angeles Rams
- Waived from IR: DB Shaun Jolly
Minnesota Vikings
- Waived from IR: LB Abraham Beauplan
San Francisco 49ers
- Released from IR: K Zane Gonzalez
- Waived from IR: WR A.J. Parker
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Waived from IR: CB Don Gardner
Today’s minor moves consistent exclusively of players getting released/waived from injured reserve. If players are placed on IR during the preseason, they’re not allowed to be activated by their team during the regular season. However, getting released from IR allows them to sign elsewhere and play immediately.
The most notable name on the list is kicker Zane Gonzalez, who has seen time in 63 career games. He most recently got into 12 games for the Panthers during the 2021 campaign, connecting on 20 of his 22 field goal attempts and 22 of his 23 extra point tries. The veteran will likely need an injury to hit before he gets another gig.
