Buechele is expected to be waived by the Bills, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Buechele will hit the open market after completing 36 of 46 passes for 380 yards and a touchdown over three preseason games with Buffalo. The quarterback will likely find another opportunity in the near future, and he could stick around with the Bills' practice squad in 2025.

Milroe will have a special set of plays installed in Seattle's offense for regular-season games, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Coach Mike Macdonald said that Milroe will work with the first-team offense in practice, not necessarily that he will get snaps in games. Macdonald also noted that he wants teams to have to game plan for Milroe's mobility, and specifically cited the tush push the rookie quarterback ran in Seattle's second preseason game as an example. Sam Darnold is the undoubted starter heading into Week 1, but Macdonald's comments also set up an interesting decision as to whether Milroe or Drew Lock will serve as Darnold's backup.

White was released by the Bills on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

White appears to have lost his battle with Mitchell Trubisky for the backup role behind Josh Allen in 2025. White appeared in two of the Bills' preseason contests, completing 12 of 24 passes for 166 yards and two touchdowns. The 30-year-old has appeared in 15 regular-season games between the Jets, Dolphins and Bills over the the last four years, so he likely won't have to wait long for his next opportunity.

Pickett (hamstring) was traded from the Browns to the Raiders on Monday in exchange for a fifth-round pick.

The Browns had a logam at quarterback, while the Raiders recently lost their projected backup, Aidan O'Connell (wrist,) for at least six weeks. That makes this trade logical for both sides, with Pickett now in line to back up Geno Smith for the Raiders, assuming he is healthy enough to suit up Week 1. While Pickett has been a disappointment given his first-round pedigree, he should be servicable relative to other backups if called upon.

Perkins was waived by the Panthers on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

Perkins signed with the Panthers on Aug. 17, completing 10 of 11 passes for 71 yards, while also adding two rushes for 28 yards in Thursday's 19-10 loss to the Steelers. The quarterback hasn't appeared in an NFL contest since 2022, and he'll likely have to settle for a practice squad spot ahead of the 2025 campaign.

The Bengals waived Thorne on Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Thorne joined the Bengals in late April as an undrafted free agent. The only preseason game he played in was against Indianapolis on Saturday, when he completed four of seven passes for 41 yards. Thorne will explore his next options assuming he clears waivers, which includes staying with the Bengals as a member of the practice squad.

Noel was waived by Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Noel rushed seven times for 63 yards in the preseason finale, so he has a chance to return on the practice squad.

Watson (knee) is expected to be waived after reaching an injury settlement with the Broncos, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Watson suffered a PCL strain in the team's preseason finale against the Saints on Saturday, and he will now be let go instead of being placed on injured reserve. The running back will rehab the injury and attempt to pass a physical and sign elsewhere in 2025.

The Steelers waived Hurleman on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Hurleman had a nice showing in the Steelers' preseason opener against the Jaguars on Aug. 9, finishing with two catches (on four targets) for 29 yards and a touchdown. He wasn't able to replicate that performance across the Steelers' final two exhibition games and didn't show enough in training camp to crack the 53-man roster. Assuming he clears waivers, the undrafted free agent out of Notre Dame will look to join a team in need of depth at wide receiver, though he could be invited back by the Steelers to join the team's practice squad.

The Steelers waived Nichols on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

The 2023 seventh-rounder caught on with the Steelers in late July after being let go by the Eagles. He finished the preseason with 11 carries for 87 yards and five catches (on eight targets) for 36 yards. Nichols' efforts weren't enough to crack the 53-man roster, and he'll have the opportunity to sign with a team in need of backfield depth if he clears waivers.

Lynch-Adams was waived by the Panthers on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

Lynch-Adams will be placed on waivers after turning 14 carries into 36 yards over three preseason games with the Panthers. He's a candidate to join the team's practice squad ahead of the 2025 campaign, though he could look for another opportunity elsewhere.

Bailey was waived by the Panthers on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

Bailey appeared in all three of the Panthers' preseason games, racking up 58 rushing yards on 14 carries. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, the running back could very well remain with Carolina as a member of the team's practice squad.

Taylor was waived by Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Star reports.

He caught just one pass in the preseason. The undrafted free agent from Abilene Christian will look to catch on elsewhere.

Greene brought in all three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday night.

The converted quarterback flashed with a one-yard touchdown catch just past the two-minute warning, his first score of the exhibition slate. Greene recorded multiple receptions in all three preseason games, and he also gained 52 combined yards on a pair of punt returns and one kickoff runback. The versatile West Virginia product likely still has an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster due to the depth at receiver, but Greene may be an ideal practice-squad candidate.

Newton was waived by the Broncos on Monday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Newton had a productive collegiate career with Toledo but was always a longshot to make Denver's roster after joining the team as an undrafted free agent. He made five catches for 26 yards across three preseason games.

Rowan was waived by the Broncos on Monday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Rowan joined the Broncos as an undrafted free agent following the 2025 draft. He logged four catches during Denver's preseason slate, but he'll now look to latch on elsewhere around the league.

Presley was waived by the Chiefs on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Presley signed with Kansas City in late July, reeling in two catches for 20 yards over three preseason contests with the team. He will now be placed on waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, there's a good chance he'll stick around as a member of the Chiefs' practice squad.

Rice is slated to be waived by the Chargers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Rice appeared in three of the team's preseason contests, reeling in three catches for 32 yards. The wide receiver appeared in three regular-season contests with Los Angeles in 2024, failing to record any stats while playing three offensive snaps and 10 snaps on special teams. Rice will now be placed on waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, there's a solid chance he sticks around as a member of the Chargers' practice squad.

Culp secured all three targets for 33 yards and lost a fumble in the Buccaneers' 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday night.

The athletic tight end played a position-high 20 snaps from scrimmage and made good use of his three targets, but his turnover late in the third quarter came in Bills territory. Nevertheless, Culp appears to be a virtual lock for the 53-man roster as a complementary pass-catching option alongside No. 1 tight end Cade Otton, following a solid training camp and preseason that have earned him accolades from new offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard.

Ismail was waived by the Raiders on Monday.

Ismail signed with the Raiders in April after the spending the 2024 campaign as a member of the Ravens' practice squad. The tight end caught four passes for 42 yards over two preseason contests with Las Vegas. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, Ismail's next opportunity may be with the Raiders' practice squad.

Mabry was released from injured reserve after reaching an injury settlement with the Panthers on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Mabry was placed on IR by Carolina on Aug. 18 with an undisclosed injury, which would have sidelined him for the entire season. Now that he's a free agent, the tight end can pass a physical and sign elsewhere at any point and play in 2025.

The Steelers waived Galbreath on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Galbreath appeared in all three of the Steelers' preseason games and finished with three catches (on five targets) for 23 yards. He wasn't able to make Pittsburgh's 53-man roster, but if he clears waivers, the undrafted rookie out of South Dakota could remain with the team as a member of the practice squad.

The Cardinals waived Cardenas on Monday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Cardenas did not log a target across the Cardinals' three preseason games. The undrafted rookie will have the opportunity to explore his next options if he clears waivers, though he could remain in Arizona as a member of the team's practice squad.

Cupp was waived by the Ravens on Monday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Cupp signed with the Ravens in early August after being let go by Kansas City, recording two catches for 13 catches while appearing in one game during the preseason. If the tight end clear waivers, there's a good chance he sticks around Baltimore as a member of the team's practice squad.

Fitzgerald is in line to start the 2025 regular season as the Panthers' kicker, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Fitzgerald was in a battle with Matthew Wright for the title of place kicker in Carolina, and after Wright was released Monday, the job now belongs to Fitzgerald. Over his last two seasons at Florida State, he made 32 of 34 field-goal tries and all of his 72 extra-point attempts.

The Steelers waived Sauls on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

With Chris Boswell sitting outwhile seeking a contract extension, Sauls handled the kicking duties in all three of the Steelers' preseason games, going 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts while making all six of his extra-point tries. Boswell will remain on the Steelers' roster as the team's starting kicker, but Saul should get an opportunity to compete on another team whose kicking situation is less solidified.

Wright was released by the Panthers on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

Wright signed with the Panthers in February and competed with rookie Ryan Fitzgerald for the team's starting kicker role at training camp, ultimately losing the battle. Wright missed his lone field-goal attempt, while also adding a PAT over two preseason games with Carolina. The kicker has appeared in at least one regular-season contest in five consecutive seasons, so he'll likely find another opportunity elsewhere in 2025.

Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Sanders (hip) is not expected to be available for Week 1 against the Colts, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

McDaniel said the opposite over the weekend, though it's not believed to be a season-ending injury, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday that Sanders will be sidelined 4-to-5 weeks.. Without another kicker on the roster, Miami will need to add one before facing Indianapolis on Sunday, Sept. 7.

Hopkins converted a 28-yard field goal and missed one of two extra-point kicks in Saturday's 19-17 preseason win over the Rams.

Hopkins, who was on shaky ground following his performance in 2024, may have left enough doubt in the mind of decision-makers when he was wide left on an XPA. Organizational confidence was already low on Hopkins, who watched his competitor for the job, Andre Szmyt, convert a game-winning kick from 37 yards out with no time left on the clock. The projection for an initial 53-man roster from Zac Jackson of The Athletic gives the edge to Szmyt, although it should be noted he's never kicked in a regular-season NFL game.

Szmyt converted his lone field-goal attempt from 37 yards in Saturday's 19-17 preseason win over the Rams.

Szmyt calmly drilled his kick through the middle of the goal posts with no time left on the clock. It finished a perfect preseason for Szmyt, who was successful on all three FGA and one XPA. Meanwhile, Dustin Hopkins converted from 28 yards out and was wide left on his lone extra-point try, his second missed XPA in preseason work. A 53-man roster projection from Zac Jackson of The Athletic pegs Szmyt over Hopkins for the placekicking job, but that comes with the caveat that Szmyt has never kicked in a regular-season NFL game. However, he did post an impressive 90.5 percent success rate (19-for-21) on field goals for the UFL's St. Louis Battlehawks this past spring, a sample that included a 4-for-5 tally on attempts from 50+ yards.

Merriweather recorded six tackles (all solo) and a quarterback hit in the Buccaneers' 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday night.

The third-year pro was second in tackles on the night while playing all 67 snaps from scrimmage, wrapping up a productive preseason where he recorded 10 stops across two games. Merriweather saw an increase in involvement in his second NFL campaign last season, and he projects to serve as Tykee Smith's primary back up at free safety heading into the 2025 season.

Pili (undisclosed) is uncertain to play in Week 1 versus the 49ers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Pili did not play in Seattle's preseason finale against the Packers on Saturday, which is now understood to be related to an undisclosed injury. Head coach Mike Macdonald explained Monday that the defensive lineman may not be available for Week 1. With Johnathan Hankins (back) potentially also unavailable, Quinton Bohanna could operate as the team's top reserve option at nose tackle behind starter Byron Murphy against San Francisco.

Watson was waived by the Buccaneers on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Watson spent the entirety of Tampa Bay's training camp on the active/non-football injury list while dealing with an illness. The defensive tackle entered camp at nearly 450 pounds, and it was made clear that he needed to shed some weight before he could practice with the team. Watson will look to continue his weight loss journey in an attempt to secure another opportunity elsewhere, though he could stick around with the Buccaneers' practice squad.

Morris was placed in concussion protocol Monday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Morris appears to have suffered a concussion during the team's 20-7 preseason loss to the Packers on Saturday. The defensive lineman will have just under two weeks to clear protocol before the team's season opener against the 49ers on Sept. 7.

The Vikings traded Blackmon to the Colts in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick Monday.

Blackmon will head to Indianapolis after missing the entirety of the 2024 campaign while recovering from a torn ACL. The cornerback was selected in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft by the Vikings, compiling 41 total tackles (34 solo), eight passes defensed, including an interception, and a fumble recovery over 15 regular-season contests. Blackmon will now step into a prominent reserve role in the Colts' secondary behind starters Charvarius Ward and Jaylon Jones in 2025.

Tampa Bay cut Jackson on Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Jackson led the Buccaneers in tackles over their three preseason games, but it wasn't enough to make their final 53-man roster for 2025. He'll be free to sign with any team, but there's also a chance he ends up back with Tampa Bay's practice squad.
