Ealy was waived by the Chiefs on Tuesday.

Ealy has spent the first two seasons in the league bouncing on and off the Chiefs practice squad, but ultimately never getting the opportunity to suit up for a game. It looks like he is trending in that direction again in 2023, but it remains to be seen if the team will give him another practice squad offer.

Johnson was released by Buffalo on Tuesday.

Johnson signed with the Bills last Monday and rushed 11 times for 51 yards in the team's preseason finale against the Bears. That performance wasn't enough to earn him a spot on the 53-man roster, though he could end up on Buffalo's practice squad.

The Seahawks waived Thompson on Tuesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Thompson signed with the Saints as an undrafted free agent earlier in the offseason before being let go in mid-June. He signed with the Seahawks in late July but was unable to land a spot on the team's 53-man roster. He'll now attempt to seek out other opportunities ahead of the 2023 campaign.

The Chiefs waived Perine on Tuesday.

Perine's only real route to the Chiefs' final 53-man roster was if they opted to go with four running backs, as Isiah Pacheco, Jerick McKinnon and Clyde Edwards-Helaire were already pretty much locked in ahead of him. That scenerio ultimately did not come to fruition, so now Perine will either need to get a practice squad offer or else he will be looking for a new landing spot.

The Texans waived Doaks on Tuesday.

Doaks missed the Texans' final two preseason games with an undisclosed injury. He spent the 2022 season on Houston's practice squad and could return in that capacity once he clears waivers.

The Steelers waived Valladay on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Valladay joined the Texans as an undrafted free agent in late April before being let go by the team in mid-August. He quickly landed with the Steelers but was unable to earn a spot on the team's 53-man roster. He'll now have to seek out other opportunities ahead of the 2023 campaign.

The Steelers waived Bell on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Bell joined the Steelers at the beginning of August after being waived by the Lions in late July. However, he was unable to secure a depth role on Pittsburgh's 53-man roster and will be forced to seek out other opportunities ahead of the 2023 campaign.

Scott was waived by the Cardinals on Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

The running back was also let go by the team on Aug. 14 before being re-signed a week later. Scott has yet to make an NFL regular season roster across four combined attempts with the Saints, Broncos and Cardinals since 2021.

The 49ers released Hill on Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Hill was sitting at No. 6 on the 49ers' running back depth chart, which makes this move relatively unsurprising. The 27-year-old has primarily played in Atlanta across the first four years of his career, but he was looking for a fresh start in San Francisco. It remains to be seen if the team plans on offering him a role on their practice squad.

The Patriots waived Taylor on Tuesday.

With Ty Montgomery and Kevin Harris also having been let go by the team Tuesday, Rhamondre Stevenson and Ezekiel Elliott are the only running backs on the 53-man roster following initial cut-downs. Look for additional moves to occur in the coming days, and with that in mind it's possible that Taylor could return to the mix once the dust settles.
