Hamm was claimed off waivers by the Chargers on Monday.

Hamm was waived by the Seahawks for the second time in the last three weeks Sunday, but it didn't take long for him to latch on with a new team this time around. The 26-year-old will compete for a depth tight end role with the Chargers.

Traylor (shoulder) did not participate in Monday's practice, Mike Klis of 9News.com reports.

Traylor, who sustained a shoulder sprain during Saturday's preseason loss to the Vikings, was kept to the sideline Monday as he observed practice. The injury doesn't sound too severe, but he joins Jeff Heuerman (knee) and rookie Troy Fumagalli (sports hernia) as other Broncos tight ends dealing with health-related issues.

Goedert (arm) returned to practice Monday, Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ.com reports.

Goedert apparently wasn't kidding when he deemed his injury minor, as he's back at practice after missing only one day. He's already looking comfortable in the No. 2 tight end role, with four catches for 66 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's preseason opener against the Steelers. The rookie second-round pick could be quite useful for fantasy purposes if Zach Ertz misses any time with injury during the upcoming season. Trey Burton, who is now in Chicago, scored three touchdowns in the two games Ertz missed last year.

Seals-Jones corralled his only target for six yards in Saturday's 24-17 preseason win versus the Chargers.

Seals-Jones didn't get the start at tight end -- that honor went to Gabe Holmes -- but his hookup with Sam Bradford marked the veteran quarterback's sole pass attempt of the game. The preceding bodes well for Seals-Jones serving as the top pass-catching TE in Arizona in 2018, especially with Jermaine Gresham still in recovery mode from an Achilles tear in Week 17 of last season. On the legal front, though, Seals-Jones awaits the resolution of a July arrest in Scottsdale, Ariz., which may eventually result in a suspension from the NFL.

Garner (knee) has been placed on injured reserve, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

This transaction was a mere formality since Garner has already been lost for the season due to a torn ACL he sustained in last week's preseason opener.

Traylor sustained a shoulder injury during Saturday's preseason opener against the Vikings, Zac Stevens of BSNDenver.com reports.

It isn't clear when or how Traylor suffered the injury, nor is it certain how severe his situation is. Regardless, his potential absence from practice this week is yet another hit to a tight end corps already without Jeff Heuerman (knee) and Troy Fumagalli (sports hernia) for the time being, which allows Jake Butt to operate as the unquestioned No. 1 tight end until further notice.

Goedert is dealing with a minor elbow injury, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.

Goedert left Saturday's practice with a previously unspecified arm injury, which he termed a "bump-and-bruise-type thing." His return to practice is likely in the day-to-day range as the Eagles prepare for their second preseason contest Thursday at New England. In his first pro outing Thursday against the Steelers, he hooked up with reserve quarterback Nate Sudfeld for four catches (on five targets) for 66 yards and a touchdown. Thus, Goedert's introduction as the Trey Burton replacement behind Zach Ertz has for the most part got off to a rousing start.

Hamm was waived by the Seahawks on Sunday Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Sunday marks the second time in the last three weeks that the Seahawks have waived Hamm. His second stint with the team lasted only six days. He will hope to find his way onto another roster before training camp concludes.

Graham (knee) returned to practice Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Graham has been tending to a knee injury for a brief spell, missing out on his first chance to make an in-game impact as a Packer. His next chance to do so arrives Thursday against the Steelers, assuming he's cleared to play.

Goedert is being held out of Sunday's practice with a seemingly minor injury to his right arm, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

There was speculation about a serious injury when Goedert left Saturday's practice, but it now seems he's merely day-to-day. While he didn't participate Sunday, the rookie second-round pick came out on the field to watch practice and was joking around with his teammates. Goedert caught four passes for 66 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's preseason opener against Pittsburgh, making a strong case that he's ready for the No. 2 tight end job. It's an important role in the Philadelphia offense, but not one that's likely to allow for a fantasy impact while Zach Ertz is healthy.
