Kareem, who was just activated off of injured reserve, is being waived to make room for defensive end Montez Sweat, acquired by trade this morning. The Bears also announced a practice squad release, indicating a possible return for Kareem on that unit. The Colts are expected to do the same with Boettger.
O’Connor will lose his active roster spot to make room for quarterback John Wolford, whom Tampa Bay officially promoted today in order to ward off interest parties such as the Rams and Vikings, both of whom are experiencing injury issues at quarterback.

Jets Set 53-Man Roster
The Jets have been in the limelight all offseason, and some of their lesser-known players have earned attention following the team’s participation in HBO’s Hard Knocks. The team had to move on from many of those unheralded players today, as the organization reduced their roster to 53 players:
Released:
- FB Nick Bawden
- QB Tim Boyle
- LB Samuel Eguavoen
- WR Alex Erickson
- DL Bruce Hector
- DL Jalyn Holmes
- S Craig James
- P Thomas Morstead
- OL Adam Pankey
- OL Greg Senat
- DL Tanzel Smart
- DL Pita Taumeopenu
- WR Malik Taylor
- LB Nick Vigil
Waived:
- DL Deslin Alexandre
- LB Claudin Cherelus
- C Trystan Colon
- S Trey Dean
- RB Travis Dye
- OL Chris Glaser
- OL Grant Hermanns
- TE E.J. Jenkins
- LB Caleb Johnson
- WR Jerome Kapp
- RB Zonovan Knight
- TE Zack Kuntz
- OL Brent Laing
- CB Derrick Langford
- WR TJ Luther
- CB Nehemiah Shelton
- DL Marquiss Spencer
- S Marquis Waters
Placed on reserve/PUP:
Placed on IR:
Placed on reserve/suspended:
Zonovan Knight made a name for himself as an UDFA in 2022. The running back was thrust into the Jets starting lineup, and he ultimately started four of his seven appearances. The RB finished the season with 400 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown on 98 touches. With Dalvin Cook added to a deep RBs depth chart, Knight seemed like a long shot to make the final roster.
Tim Boyle has bounced around the NFL a bit, but his only starting experience came with the Lions in 2021. The quarterback spent the 2022 campaign in Chicago, completing two of his eight pass attempts. It was uncertain if the Jets would keep three QBs on the roster, but the team appears content with just Aaron Rodgers and Zach Wilson at the position.
