The Bills cut Buechele on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Buechele was unable to impress enough during the offseason to challenge Kyle Allen for the team's backup quarterback role. Buechele spent the majority of last season on Buffalo's practice squad, serving as the team's emergency third quarterback and could serve the same role during the upcoming campaign.

Johnson was released by the Bengals on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The veteran of 14 NFL teams signed with Cincinnati in March to compete for a backup role behind Joe Burrow, but he found himself the odd man out next to fellow veteran signing Joe Flacco and developmental prospect Sean Clifford. Johnson saw action in five regular-season games and on 137 offensive snaps for Washington last year, completing 63 percent of his passes for 372 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

The Panthers cut Trask on Sunday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

Trask had just joined the team earlier this month to provide additional quarterback depth due to Haynes King being sidelined with a hamstring injury. If King is forced to miss time during the regular season, Carolina could bring Trask back to its practice squad to serve as the team's emergency third quarterback.

Gronowski was waived by the Dolphins on Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

The quarterback will return to Miami as part of the practice squad unless he's claimed by another team, per Garafolo. The move comes after the Dolphins traded a 2028 sixth-round pick to the Packers for Kyle McCord, who will likely serve as the backup to starter Malik Willis in the wake of the departures of Quinn Ewers, who was traded to Jacksonville, and Cam Miller, who was waived. Gronowski signed with Miami as an undrafted free agent in May, was waived by the team in early August and then landed back with the club nine days later.

Gabriel will make Cleveland's 53-man roster, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

Gabriel took a back seat to Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders for most of the preseason as those two QBs engaged in a competition that culminated in Watson being named the Week 1 starter. Gabriel finally got a chance to start a preseason game in the finale and made the most of his opportunity with a trio of passing touchdowns. The 2025 third-round pick will begin the regular season as the third option on a Browns QB depth chart that may also include rookie sixth-round pick Taylen Green, whom Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports the Browns are hoping to keep on the roster as well.

The Browns would like to keep Green on the 53-man roster if they can fit him, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Green is fourth on the team's quarterback depth chart behind Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel. Green, a mobile rookie sixth-round pick out of Arkansas, is raw as a passer but has intriguing rushing upside. Cleveland would have to cut or make an injury move with one of the players ahead of Green or carry four quarterbacks to keep him on the roster, which could leave the Browns shorthanded in depth at another position.

Aguilar was waived by the Jaguars on Sunday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Aguilar signed with Jacksonville as an undrafted free agent in April, but was unable to beat Nick Mullens or Carter Bradley for the backup quarterback spot behind Trevor Lawrence. The Jaguars are expected to remain interested in the 25-year-old rookie, and he could be a top candidate to sign to the team's practice squad should he not find interest elsewhere.

Jacksonville cut Mullens on Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Mullens appeared set to work as Trevor Lawrence's backup this season, but that changed when the Jaguars traded with Miami for Quinn Ewers on Saturday. Mullens has extensive NFL experience -- including 20 career regular-season starts -- so he could be an attractive option for another team looking to fill out its QB room with a veteran signal-caller.

Green Bay traded McCord to the Dolphins on Sunday in exchange for a 2028 sixth-round draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

McCord had a strong preseason with the Packers, completing 65.7 percent of his 70 passes for 446 yards with a 4:0 TD:INT over three games. However, Green Bay already has a reliable backup to Jordan Love in veteran Tyrod Taylor, so the organization opted to get something back for McCord rather than risk losing him on waivers. Now that he's with Miami, McCord will fill the team's No. 2 QB role behind Malik Willis after the Dolphins traded Quinn Ewers to Jacksonville on Saturday and waived both Cam Miller and Mark Gronowski early Sunday. That puts McCord in a better position to make an impact in fantasy, though his opportunity for playing time is entirely dependent on Willis' health and performance.

Miller was waived by the Dolphins on Sunday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Miller was drafted by the Raiders in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. However, he eventually was signed by the Dolphins from Las Vegas' practice squad in January 2026. Miller could draw interest from a few teams looking for depth, though he isn't expected to suit up for a regular-season game anytime soon. The 25-year-old spent his collegiate career at North Dakota State, most recently throwing for 3,251 yards, 33 touchdowns and four interceptions in 2024. He also had 145 carries for 631 yards and 12 touchdowns on the run.
