Malik Davis RB | DAL
Malik Davis: Joins Cowboys' practice squad
Davis was signed to the Cowboys' practice squad Wednesday.
Davis cleared waivers after being let go Tuesday, and he will now stick around Dallas as a member of the team's practice unit. The running back didn't appear in a regular-season game with the team in 2024 after three appearances the year before, so he'll look to earn an elevation again in 2025.

Cody Schrader: Staying in Los Angeles
The Rams signed Schrader to the practice squad Wednesday, Wyatt Miller of the team's official site reports.
Wyatt will stay in Los Angeles as a member of the Rams' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. The second-year running back logged 27 carries for 120 yards and three catches (on four targets) for 33 yards across the Rams' three preseason games.

The Rams signed Rivers to the practice squad Wednesday, Wyatt Miller of the team's official site reports.

Dante Miller RB | NYG
Dante Miller: Staying with G-Men
The Giants signed Miller to the practice squad Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Miller made a strong case to make the Giants' 53-man roster after logging 14 catches (on as many targets) for 135 yards and 26 carries for 80 yards across three preseason games. He ultimately didn't make the cut after the Giants opted to go with three running backs on the main roster in Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary and rookie fourth-rounder Cam Skattebo. Miller will stick around in New York on the Giants' practice squad, and he would be a top candidate to be elevated to the active roster if Tracy, Singletary or Skattebo were unavailable to play.

Jackson finished the preseason with 13 carries for 56 yards while adding two catches (on as many targets) for 13 yards.

Across 10 regular-season appearances as a rookie in 2024, Vidal rushed just 43 times for 155 yards (3.6 YPC) and zero touchdowns. He also secured five of nine targets for 62 yards and one score.
