Minor NFL Transactions: 8/27/23
With the preseason over for 30 of the NFL’s 32 teams, many have begun the process of working their rosters down to the eventual 53-man rosters they will open the season with:
Indianapolis Colts
- Waived: WR Tyler Adams, WR Kody Case, G Emil Ekiyor, TE Nick Eubanks, K Lucas Havrisik, TE Michael Jacobson, T Matthew Vanderslice
- Released: CB Teez Tabor
Las Vegas Raiders
- Placed on IR: RB Brittain Brown, TE Jacob Hollister, WR Isaiah Zuber
- Waived/injured: WR Chris Lacy
- Waived: CB Isiah Brown, CB Bryce Cosby, DT Doug Costin, LB Isaac Darkangelo, QB Chase Garbers, G Vitaliy Gurman, RB Darwin Thompson
Los Angeles Chargers
- Waived: OLB Carlo Kemp, CB Cam Brown
Minnesota Vikings
- Waived: LB Wilson Huber, T Jarrid Williams
- Released: LB Tanner Vallejo
New England Patriots
- Released: DT Carl Davis, CB Rodney Randle
- Waived: LB Diego Fagot, S Brad Hawkins, TE Johnny Lumpkin, RB C.J. Marable, CB Quandre Mosely, DT Justus Tavai, OL Micah Vanterpool, TE Scotty Washington, LB Carson Wells
New York Jets
- Released: LB Nick Vigil
Pittsburgh Steelers
- Waived: WR Aron Cruickshank
San Francisco 49ers
- Waived: CB Nate Brooks, OLB LaDarius Hamilton, DE Breeland Speaks, LB Kyahva Tezino, DL Spencer Waege

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Waived from IR with injury settlement: CB Don Gardner
- Waived: OLB Hamilcar Rashed
- Released: LB Ulysees Gilbert
Although never quite reaching the heights of his tenure with the Bengals, Vigil has a history as a strong contributor and potential starter at linebacker. Coming off a season that saw him only play in four games for the Cardinals before getting put on injured reserve, Vigil failed to stick in New York and will need to find his next opportunity elsewhere.
Vallejo’s tenure in Minnesota lasted a short two weeks. The special teams specialist will have to keep searching for his 2023 home.

Here are Monday’s minor moves:
Baltimore Ravens
- Signed: S Jaquan Amos
- Waived: DE Levi Bell
Chicago Bears
- Waived: OL Nick Amoah, DB Justin Broiles, TE Damien Caffrey
Green Bay Packers
- Signed: LS Broughton Hatcher, DL Antonio Moultrie
- Waived: LS Jack Coco
Indianapolis Colts
- Signed: WR Tyler Adams, WR Kody Case, T Matthew Vanderslice, DT Jamal Woods
- Waived: WR Cody Chrest, CB Tyler Richardson, RB Titus Swen, WR Braxton Westfield
New York Giants
- Reverted to PUP list: S Terrell Burgess
Philadelphia Eagles
- Waived: S Andre Chachere
Hatcher and Moultrie join cornerback William Hooper in landing Packers deals after the team’s rookie minicamp. Despite the Packers cutting Coco, Hatcher still has competition to become Green Bay’s long snapper. Matt Orzech, who spent the past two years as the Rams’ deep snapper, remains the favorite for the Packer gig after receiving a $300K signing bonus this offseason, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com tweets. Orzech had been on Green Bay’s radar for years; the team tried to claim him off waivers in 2021.
