Wednesday’s minor moves in the NFL:

Baltimore Ravens

Signed: CB Keyon Martin

Dallas Cowboys

Waived: WR Seth Williams

Green Bay Packers

Signed: QB Taylor Elgersma

Houston Texans

Claimed off waivers (from Seahawks): LB Jackson Woodard

Indianapolis Colts

Signed: LB Joe Bachie

Kansas City Chiefs

Reverted to NFI list: DE BJ Thompson
Reverted to IR: WR Justin Lockhart

Los Angeles Rams

Waived: DT David Olajiga

Tennessee Titans

Re-signed: DT James Lynch
Waived (with injury designation): OLB Kyron Johnson, WR Tay Martin

Though the Ravens and Packers have both already announced their undrafted free agent rookie class signings, both teams added an additional name to their groups today via rookie minicamp tryouts.

Martin, a smaller defensive back with impressive speed, transferred to Louisiana after two years at Youngstown State. He became a full-time starter for the Ragin’ Cajuns in 2023, tallying 109 total tackles, three interceptions, and 13 passes defensed during his two seasons in the starting lineup.

Coming out of Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, CAN, Elgersma went undrafted in the NFL draft but was selected in the second round of the 2025 draft for the Canadian Football League. He was also invited for a rookie minicamp tryout in Buffalo but will no longer attend after turning his Green Bay invite into a roster spot.

January 6th, 2025 at 7:29pm CST by Ben Levine

NFL Practice Squad Updates: 10/8/24

October 8th, 2024 at 9:21pm CST by Adam La Rose

Tuesday’s taxi squad moves:

Atlanta Falcons

Signed: OL Matthew Cindric

Baltimore Ravens

Signed: CB Damarion Williams

Cincinnati Bengals

Signed: CB Micah Abraham

Cleveland Browns

Released: LB Michael Barrett, RB Royce Freeman, T Ricky Lee

Dallas Cowboys

Signed: WR Seth Williams, DE Luiji Vilain

Denver Broncos

Signed: T Cameron Fleming, C Dieter Eiselen, WR Kaden Davis, WR A.T. Perry
Placed on IR: G William Sherman
Released: RB Salvon Ahmed, CB Quinton Newsome

Signed: C Sincere Haynesworth
Released: G Jerome Carvin, WR Matt Landers

New York Jets

Released: LB Anthony Hines

Seattle Seahawks

Signed: LB Ezekiel Turner
Released: LB Devin Richardson

Washington Commanders

Released: DE Justin Hollins

Fleming saw time with Denver across each of the past three seasons. The 32-year-old alternated between right and left tackle during that span, and he remained on the team’s radar given his workout in September. Now Fleming, a veteran of 117 games and 62 starts, will be an option to handle a depth role along the O-line once he is elevated to the Broncos’ active roster.

Minor NFL Transactions: 8/25/24

August 25th, 2024 at 9:04pm CST by Adam La Rose

With roster cutdowns beginning around the league, Sunday saw a number of moves take place:

Atlanta Falcons

Waived: WR Josh Ali, CB William Hooper, LB Storey Jackson, LB Donavan Mutin, QB John Paddock, TE Austin Stogner, CB Trey Vaval
Released: OLB Bradlee Anae, OL Zack Bailey, S Lukas Denis, OL Jaryd Jones-Smith, OL John Leglue, TE Jordan Thomas

Buffalo Bills

Placed on IR: S Terrell Burgess, S Dee Delaney
Waived: DE Rondell Bothroyd, OL Kevin Jarvis, LB Shayne Simon,
Released: QB Anthony Brown, CB Kyron Brown, WR Damiere Byrd, LB Deion Jones

Indianapolis Colts

Waived: CB Clay Fields III, K Spencer Shrader, QB Kedon Slovis, WR Derek Slywka, LB Mike Smith Jr.
Released: WR Tyrie Cleveland, DE Derek Rivers, WR Greg Ward

Jacksonville Jaguars

Waived: DE Raymond Johnson, DT Jonathan Marshall, LB Andrew Parker Jr., WR Joseph Scates, WR Seth Williams
Released: CB Tevaughn Campbell, TE Chris Myarick, DE Breeland Speaks, OL Keaton Sutherland

Los Angeles Rams

Waived: WR J.J. Laap, OL Blake Larson, OL Alec Lindstrom, LB Ochaun Mathis, DB Cameron McCutcheon, OL Grant Miller, LB Olakunle Fatukasi, RB SaRodorick Thompson, QB Dresser Winn
Released: OL Matt Kaskey, DE Carlos Watkins

Miami Dolphins

Placed on IR: WR Anthony Schwartz

New York Giants

Waived (injury designation): DT Timmy Horne, DB Jonathan Sutherland
Waived: WR Ayir Asante, DL Kyler Baugh, CB Christian Holmes, DB Clayton Isbell, WR John Jiles, LB Trey Kiser, RB Lorenzo Lingard, OL Marcus McKethan
Released: CB Breon Borders, RB Joshua Kelley

Pittsburgh Steelers

Waived: WR T.J. Luther

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Waived: P Nolan Cooney, DL Judge Culpepper, OL Xavier Delgado, LB Kalen DeLoach, CB Andrew Hayes, RB Ramon Jefferson, WR Cephus Johnson, OL Ryan Johnson, WR Latreal Jones, WR Tanner Knue, DL Brandon Matterson, OLB Jay Person, OLB Shaun Peterson, DL Lwal Uguak, WR Raleigh Webb, TE David Wells
Released: TE Sal Cannella, LS Zach Triner

Buffalo’s decision to cut Jones marks a blow to his efforts in finding a roster spot on a new team. Considering the latest report on his status, however, it does not come as a surprise. The Bills dealt with a number of injuries at the linebacker spot last season and Matt Milano will miss extended time in 2024 due to a biceps tear. In spite of that, the team will look elsewhere for depth options unless Jones is retained via the practice squad later this week.

NFL Reserve/Futures Contracts: 2/13/24

February 13th, 2024 at 7:31pm CST by Ben Levine

Today’s reserve/futures deals:

Jacksonville Jaguars

OL Chandler Brewer, DB Tevaughn Campbell, DL D.J. Coleman, OLB De’Shaan Dixon, DB Erick Hallett II, LB Dequan Jackson, DB Amani Oruwariye, DL Esezi Otomewo, DB Ayo Oyelola, TE Josh Pederson, OL Keaton Sutherland, OL Darryl Williams, WR Seth Williams

Kansas City Chiefs

DT Isaiah Buggs

San Francisco 49ers

OL Sebastian Gutierrez, DB Kemon Hall, S Erik Harris, S Tayler Hawkins, WR Tay Martin, DL Sam Okuayinonu, LB Curtis Robinson, TE Jake Tonges, DL Spencer Waege

Oruwariye spent much of the 2023 season on the Jaguars practice squad, with the defensive back getting into just one game. The former fifth-round pick has more experience than your standard reserve/futures contract, as Oruwariye started 29 games for the Lions between 2020 and 2021. That latter season was one of his strongest, as he finished with 57 tackles, 11 passes defended, and six interceptions.

Jaguars Trim Roster To 53

August 29th, 2023 at 2:18pm CST by Sam Robinson

Teams have until 3pm CT to trim their rosters to the 53-man limit. The Jaguars are getting an early start. Here are the players the Jags cut Tuesday:

Released:

Waived:

LS Tucker Addington
WR Kevin Austin
S Latavious Brini
OLB D.J. Coleman
RB Snoop Conner
OL Coy Cronk
DL De’Shaan Dixon
CB Erick Hallett
WR Jacob Harris
CB Kaleb Hayes
LB Dequan Jackson
OL Samuel Jackson
WR Oliver Martin
K James McCourt
S Ayo Oyelola
TE Derek Parish
TE Josh Pederson
TE Gerrit Prince
WR Kendric Pryor
QB Nathan Rourke
OLB Jordan Smith
OLB Willie Taylor
DL Raymond Vohasek
OL Darryl Williams
WR Seth Williams
CB Divaad Wilson

Placed on exempt list:

CB Chris Claybrooks

Several of these players will be back, in all likelihood, via practice squad deals. Waiver claims process at 11am CT on Wednesday. Free agents can make plans to join P-squads early, but teams will not have the full picture of who is available until the waiver claims process.

Conner and Ollison being off the roster leaves third-round rookie Tank Bigsby, D’Ernest Johnson and Jamycal Hasty in place behind starter Travis Etienne. The Jaguars chose Conner in the 2022 fifth round, and while they traded James Robinson before last year’s deadline, Conner did not receive much work. He totaled 12 carries for 42 yards as a rookie.

Wells returned to Jacksonville earlier this month, but this IR placement will halt a journey back to regular-season work with his initial NFL team. Wells, 32, started nine games for the Jags from 2014-18. He then worked as a key Buccaneers backup over the past several years. Players placed on IR before the season are not eligible for in-season activations, though an injury settlement could allow Wells to play this season.
