Tayvion Robinson WR | CAR
Panthers' Tayvion Robinson: IR-bound
Robinson (undisclosed) reverted to Carolina's injured reserve list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Now he'll be forced to sit out of the entire 2024 campaign unless he's able to reach an injury settlement with the Panthers. The nature of the injury he's dealing with is still unknown at this point.

Matt Landers WR | TEN
Patriots' Matt Landers: Scooped up by Pats
New England claimed Landers from waivers Tuesday.
Landers was waived by Cleveland on Monday, but he'll now get another chance to make an impression with the Patriots. Their roster is relatively thin at wide receiver, so he'll have as good of a chance at making the final 53-man roster with them as he would with just about any other team.

Nikko Remigio WR | KC
Chiefs' Nikko Remigio: Gets endorsement from Toub
Special teams coordinator Dave Toub told reporters Tuesday that he will "pound the table" for Remigio to make the Kansas City's 53-man roster as a return specialist, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Remigio has been competing against Skyy Moore, Mecole Hardman and others for a return specialist role on kickoffs and punts during training camp. Across the Chiefs' two preseason games, Remigio has returned his two kickoffs for 31 yards each and added a 42-yard punt return in Saturday's contest against the Lions. He's also seen work on offense, accumulating five catches on eight targets for 51 targets across his two preseason outings. Remigio spent all of 2023 on the Chiefs' reserve/injured list with a wrist injury, and he has the endorsement of Toub to make the final 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Dennis Houston WR | TB
Dennis Houston: Waived/injured by Giants
The Giants waived/injured Houston (undisclosed) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Houston had been dealing with a hand injury since the beginning of August, but he was able to suit up for Saturday's preseason contest against the Texans. It's unclear whether he's currently dealing with the same injury or a separate one, but he will now go on waivers. If Houston goes unclaimed, then he would revert to the Giants' injured reserve and be forced to miss all of 2024 unless the two sides reach an agreement on an injury settlement.

Tre'Quan Smith WR | DET
Lions' Tre'Quan Smith: Lands on IR
Smith (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Smith's bid to make Detroit's final 53-man roster will come to an end with this move. Instead, the UCF product will now likely miss the entirety of the 2024 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

DJ Chark WR | ATL
Chargers' DJ Chark: Not practicing Tuesday
Chark (undisclosed) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Chark came up limping after an 11-on-11 play during Monday's practice, with Popper indicating afterward that the wideout may have sustained a hip issue. With a missed practice Tuesday, the wideout's status for Saturday's preseason finale against the Cowboys is unclear.
-
Amari Cooper WR | LV
Browns' Amari Cooper: Doesn't practice Tuesday
Though Cooper (undisclosed) didn't practice Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic relays that the wideout was present for a mid-session walkthrough.
Cooper left this past Thursday's practice early after making a catch during 11-on-11 drills, and coach Kevin Stefanski subsequently noted that the wideout was "sore." With that in mind, consider Cooper day-to-day as Saturday's preseason finale against the Seahawks approaches
-
Brevin Easton WR | JAC
Brevin Easton: Gets let go
Easton was waived by the Jaguars on Tuesday.
Easton joined Jacksonville as an undrafted free agent out of Albany, but his time with the squad has come to an end. The 23-year-old will likely look for an opportunity elsewhere before training camp wraps up and 53-man rosters are finalized.
-
Sterling Shepard WR | TB
Buccaneers' Sterling Shepard: Returns to practice
Shepard (undisclosed) practiced Tuesday while wearing a black non-contact jersey, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Shepard's return to the field is good news, but his limited availability should keep him questionable for Friday's game against the Dolphins.
