Ravens' Baylor Cupp: Signs with Baltimore
Cupp signed with the Ravens on Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Jaguars' Johnny Mundt: Returns to practice
Mundt (upper body) was a limited participant at the Jaguars' practice Sunday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

Bears' Jordan Murray: Sidelined with groin issue
Murray (groin) was held out of practice with a groin injury Sunday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Murray appears to have suffered a groin injury at practice during the week, and he may now be at risk of missing the Bears' preseason opener Aug. 10 versus the Dolphins. The tight end will look to return to the practice field ahead of the contest, but if he can't make it, he'll shift his focus to Aug. 17 against Buffalo.

Pat Conroy TE | LV
Pat Conroy: Let go by Las Vegas
The Raiders waived Conroy on Sunday.
The move makes room on the Raiders' training camp roster for Albert Okwuegbunam, who was let go by the Colts on Thursday. Conroy signed with the Raiders in early May as an undrafted free agent, but he'll now look for other opportunities assuming he clears waivers.

Albert Okwuegbunam TE | LV
Raiders' Albert Okwuegbunam: Catches on with Las Vegas
The Raiders signed Okwuegbunam on Sunday.
Okwuegbunam was let go by the Colts on Thursday, but he'll have another opportunity to earn a spot on an NFL roster after inking a deal with the Raiders. Okwuegbunam last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Eagles, when he appeared in four games and failed to haul in his lone target. The 2020 fourth-rounder will compete with Justin Shorter, Ian Thomas and Michael Mayer for backup tight end duties behind Brock Bowers.

Hunter Long TE | JAC
Jaguars' Hunter Long: Back at practice
Long (undisclosed) participated in Sunday's training camp practice, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Long suffered an unspecified injury during this past Tuesday's practice, but he has recovered enough to return to the field for Sunday's session. The 2021 third-rounder signed a two-year contract with the Jaguars in March after spending the past two seasons with the Rams. Long is competing with Johnny Mundt (upper body) and Quintin Morris for backup tight end duties behind projected starter Brenton Strange.

Redman opened camp on the PUP list due to an undisclosed injury, but he has been given the green light to return to practice after passing his physical. He signed with the Rams as an undrafted free agent in late April and is battling to earn a spot on the 53-man roster as a backup tight end.

Terrance Ferguson TE | LAR
Rams' Terrance Ferguson: Sidelined by groin injury
Ferguson was unable to practice Saturday due to a groin strain, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Coach Sean McVay downplayed the severity of the injury but also admitted that Ferguson has no timeline to return. Ferguson had gotten strong reviews in camp for his ability to find soft spots in zone coverage while being a reliable target, but this injury will slow his momentum for the time being.

Tucker Kraft TE | GB
Packers' Tucker Kraft: Dealing with groin injury
Kraft was unable to practice Saturday due to a groin injury, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Kraft had gotten through training camp with a clean bill of health prior to this injury, and there had been some buzz about him becoming a more impactful member of the Packers' offense this season. There's no indication that this injury will threaten his status to begin the campaign, but little is known at this point.
