  • Lynn Bowden: Cut by New Orleans

    The Saints waived Bowden on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Bowden signed with the Saints in mid-June, but he was unable to make enough of an impact to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. He's struggled to find a role in the NFL over the past few seasons, as he spent time with the Raiders, Dolphins and Patriots before joining the Saints this summer. It's unclear whether he'll draw interest from other clubs ahead of the 2023 campaign.

  • Jadon Haselwood: Waived by Philly

    Haselwood was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Haselwood joined the Eagles as an undrafted free agent in May. He was competing for the opportunity to play a depth receiver role on the team's 53-man roster, as well as contribute on special teams. The Arkansas product ultimately came up short, and it now remains to be seen if he will get the chance to join Philly's practice squad.

  • Jacob Copeland WR | PIT

    Jacob Copeland: Parts ways with Minnesota

    The Vikings waived Copeland on Tuesday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Copeland went undrafted in April and initially signed with the Titans before being waived in early August. He closed out the offseason with the Vikings but was unable to secure a spot on the team's 53-man roster. It's unclear whether he'll draw interest from other clubs ahead of the 2023 campaign.

    Jackson spent time in developmental leagues over the past few seasons following a collegiate career at Western Kentucky. He was unable to land a spot on the Vikings' 53-man roster after signing with the team in late May, and it's unclear whether he'll find a role with another NFL club in 2023.

  • Johnny King WR | PHI

    Johnny King: Cut by Eagles

    King did not make the Eagles' 53-man roster and was waived by the team Tuesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    King originally signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent during the offseason but was eventually let go at the start of training camp. He subsequently found his way to Philadelphia and has been competing for a depth receiving role since. The Southeast Missouri State product ultimately came up short in his quest, and it now remains to be seen if he will get a chance to join the team's practice squad.

  • Blake Proehl WR | MIN

    Blake Proehl: Cut by Minnesota

    The Vikings waived Proehl on Tuesday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Proehl spent the 2021 season on the Vikings' injured reserve after tearing his ACL, and he joined the team's practice squad after returning to full health last year. He was unable to land a spot on the team's 53-man roster ahead of the 2023 campaign, but it's possible he ends up on a practice squad once again.

  • J.J. Arcega-Whiteside: Let go by Atlanta

    The Falcons released Arcega-Whiteside on Tuesday.

    Arcega-Whiteside signed with the Falcons in May after spending most of the 2022 season on the Seahawks' practice squad. He hauled in six passes for 86 yards in three preseason games. He'll look for opportunities elsewhere once he clears waivers.

  • James Proche WR | TEN

    James Proche: Let go by Baltimore

    The Ravens waived Proche (hip) on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Proche mustered just four catches for 34 yards and fumbled the ball once in three preseason games. He hasn't had that much impact since being drafted by the Ravens in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft and he'll look to prove himself elsewhere once he clears waivers.

  • Thayer Thomas WR | DEN

    Thayer Thomas: Let go by Vikings

    Thomas (concussion) was waived by the Vikings on Tuesday, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.

    Thomas exited Minnesota's preseason finale against the Cardinals with a concussion, and it is unclear if he has cleared the league's protocols yet. Regardless, the undrafted free agent was also assumed to be on the outside looking in when it came to making the 53-man roster. Still, it remains to be seen if he will receive an offer to land on the Vikings' practice squad.

  • Malik Heath WR | ATL

    Packers' Malik Heath: Earns spot on 53-man roster

    The Packers informed Heath on Tuesday that he's made the 53-man roster, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Heath joined the Packers as an undrafted free agent this offseason, and he made an impact over the team's three exhibition games. He secured 12 of 16 targets for 146 yards during the preseason and opened Saturday's preseason win over the Seahawks with the starters. He'll now attempt to carve out a role in Green Bay's offense once the regular season gets underway.
