Taula was waived Tuesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Taula failed to make Tampa Bay's initial 53-man roster. After spending the entire 2024 regular season on the Buccaneers' practice squad, Taula could be headed back there again, assuming he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Franks made the Falcons' initial 53-man roster Tuesday.

The Falcons kept four tight ends, leaving Franks to compete with Teagan Quitoriano for backup snaps behind Kyle Pitts and Charlie Woerner. Franks started his career as an undrafted free agent with the Falcons before joining the Panthers last year. He caught his first career pass with Carolina last season, and he's played more on special teams than offense in his career.

Quitoriano made the Falcons' initial 53-man roster Tuesday.

The Falcons kept four tight ends, with Quitoriano and Feleipe Franks competing for reserve snaps behind Kyle Pitts and Charlie Woerner. Quitoriano caught nine passes for 146 yards during his first two seasons in Houston but wasn't targeted across 96 offensive snaps last year.

Lang was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Dabney was waived Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Dabney didn't make the cut, as the Titans kept only three tight ends on their initial 53-man roster: Chig Okonkwo, Gunnar Helm and David Martin-Robinson. The rookie out of TCU is expected to pass through waivers unclaimed.

Spann-Ford (ankle) was able to practice Monday, Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The second-year tight end suffered an ankle injury during training camp in late July. Spann-Ford recovered in time to avoid a stint on the IR, and the fact that the Cowboys carried only three TEs on their initial 53-man roster is a strong sign that he'll be ready for Week 1. Spann-Ford will compete for snaps with Luke Schoonmaker (concussion) behind starter Jake Ferguson.

Watson was waived by the Chiefs on Tuesday.

Watson signed with Kansas City as an undrafted free agent in April, ultimately recording just one catch for four yards in one preseason contest with the team. The tight end will likely clear waivers and then look for another opportunity elsewhere.

Spivey was waived by the Chiefs on Tuesday.

Spivey signed with Kansas City for the second straight year prior to training camp, and for the second year in a row, he failed to make the initial 53-man roster. The tight end did not produce any stats during the preseason, and he may be looking for another opportunity elsewhere.

Deguara was released by the Cardinals on Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official website reports.

Deguara will hit the open market after he compiled four catches for 48 yards over Arizona's three preseason contests. The tight end played in 15 regular-season games with the Jaguars in 2024, but he may have to settle for a practice squad spot with a new team ahead of the 2025 campaign.

Prieskorn was waived by Denver on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.

Prieskorn signed a contract with the Broncos this offseason as an undrafted free agent rookie, however, he fell short of making the 53-man roster for the 2025 campaign. The 25-year-old Ole Miss product caught his only target this preseason for a seven-yard touchdown. Prieskorn will now seek his next opportunity elsewhere ahead of the 2025 season.
