The Lions waived Stilianos on Tuesday.

Stilianos signed with the Titans as an undrafted free agent in 2024 but failed to make the team. He was mostly a blocking tight end at Iowa and was a longshot to make the Lions this season.

The Lions waived Oakes on Tuesday.

Oakes graduated from Eastern Michigan in 2022, and he has played in the USFL and UFL since then. He'll hope to claim a practice-squad spot once he clears waivers.

Latu was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday.

Latu was limited by a groin injury during training camp, ultimately failing to reel in his only target during his one preseason game. The tight end has yet to make his professional debut after being selected in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft by the 49ers, and he will now potentially look for another opportunity elsewhere.

The Lions waived Horton on Tuesday.

Horton saw work both as a tight end and as a fullback through 13 games during his senior year at Indiana, snaring 21 passes for 189 yards and four touchdowns. The Lions will enter the 2025 season with Sam LaPorta, Brock Wright and Shane Zylstra at tight end.

The Dolphins waived Rucci on Tuesday.

Rucci entered Dolphins' training camp gunning for a depth spot on the 53-man roster, but the Wisconsin tight end failed to record a catch across three preseason games. Rucci spent most of 2024 on the Dolphins' practice squad, and assuming he clears waivers he could reprise that role for the 2025 campaign.

Runyon was waived by the Raiders on Tuesday.

Runyon signed with Las Vegas as an undrafted free agent in May, recording six catches for 74 yards over the team's three preseason contests. The tight end will now be placed on waivers, but if he goes unclaimed, he could stick around as a member of the Raiders' practice squad.

The Ravens didn't place Likely (foot) on injured reserve Tuesday, keeping him eligible for the first four weeks of the season, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Likely hasn't practiced since late July and is considered uncertain for Week 1 after summer surgery, but he apparently has a shot to be ready at some point in September even if he's not cleared for the season opener at Buffalo. An absence could free up more targets and snaps for a slew of teammates, including TEs Mark Andrew and Charlie Kolar and No. 3 receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

The Raiders released Okwuegbunam on Tuesday.

Okwuegbunam caught on with the Raiders in early August after being let go by the Colts on July 31, and across Las Vegas' three preseason games he logged three catches (on five targets) for 24 yards. The 2020 fourth-rounder wasn't able to grab a spot on the Raiders' 53-man roster, but he could stay in Las Vegas as a member of the team's practice squad.

The Texans waived Lachey on Tuesday.

Houston selected Lachey in the seventh round of April's NFL Draft, and he caught five of six targets for 21 yards over three preseason games. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Lachey will likely land on the Texans' practice squad if he clears waivers.

The Texans placed Smith (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Smith is dealing with an ankle sprain, which he may have picked up during the Texans' preseason finale against the Lions on Saturday. He was placed on IR without a designation to return, meaning he'll be forced to miss the entire 2025 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Texans.
