  • Tyrone Broden WR | SEA

    Tyrone Broden: Joins practice squad

    Broden signed with the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday.

    An undrafted rookie out of Arkansas, Broden brought athleticism with a 4.37 40-yard dash at 6-foot-5, 194 pounds, but his collegiate production was disappointing. Broden caught just one pass for 15 yards over three preseason games. Broden will continue to develop on the scout team this year.

  • JaQuae Jackson WR | LAC

    JaQuae Jackson: Joins Bolts' practice squad

    The Chargers signed Jackson to their practice squad Wednesday.

    Jackson was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday, but he's already back with the team as a member of the practice squad. The 53-man roster for 2025 will likely be thin at wide receiver, so Jackson could be closer to NFL snaps than the average practice squad wideout.

  • Tyler Kahmann WR | IND

    Tyler Kahmann: Finds place on practice squad

    Kahmann signed to the Colts' practice squad Wednesday.

    The wide receiver was waived Tuesday after failing to make the Colts' 53-man roster, but he was able to stay with the team because he cleared waivers. The undrafted rookie caught two passes (on four targets) for eight yards across three preseason games for Indy.

  • Will Sheppard: Sticking around Green Bay

    Sheppard was signed to the Packers' practice squad Wednesday.

    Sheppard went unclaimed on waivers after being let go by the team Tuesday, and he will now hang around Green Bay as a member of the practice unit. The wide receiver will look to earn an elevation to the active roster and make his NFL debut in 2025.

  • 49ers' Jauan Jennings: Uncertain for Week 1

    The 49ers are unsure if Jennings (calf/contract) will play Week 1 at Seattle, but GM John Lynch said Wednesday that he won't trade the wide receiver, ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner reports.

    Lynch confirmed that Jennings requested a trade at one point due to frustration with contract negotiations, saying it was "a while ago" and the team has moved on. Jennings showed up for the start of training camp but then left the fourth practice early with a calf injury -- an issue that Lynch says is legitimate and not just an excuse to miss practice during contract negotiations. Jennings hasn't practiced for a month, joining a long list of San Francisco wideouts that are in doubt for Week 1 due to suspensions or injuries. Frustration with the lack of an extension in his contract year adds another risk factor, but there's also a clear opportunity for Jennings to pile up snaps and targets in the absence of Brandon Aiyuk (knee) this September.

  • Jackson Meeks WR | DET

    Jackson Meeks: Signs with practice squad

    Meeks signed with the Lions' practice squad Wednesday.

    Meeks led the Lions in receptions (11) and receiving yards (176) through three preseason games, adding two touchdowns as well. Unfortunately, the undrafted free agent out of Syracuse was left off the 53-man roster with the Lions keeping just five wide receivers. Meeks' impressive performance could get him called up to the active roster if injuries stack up.

  • Isaiah Neyor WR | GB

    Isaiah Neyor: Latches on with Green Bay

    Neyor was signed to the Packers' practice squad Wednesday.

    Neyor will stick around Green Bay as a member of the practice unit after he was waived by the team Tuesday, ultimately going unclaimed. The wide receiver will look to earn an elevation to the active roster and make his NFL debut in 2025.

  • Tom Kennedy WR | DET

    Tom Kennedy: Secures practice-squad role

    Kennedy signed with the Lions' practice squad Wednesday.

    Kennedy played three preseason games and recorded four receptions for 27 yards. The 29-year-old wide receiver spent most of the 2024 season on the Lions' practice squad and was elevated four times, returning six kickoffs for 167 yards.

  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Downplays back issue

    Nabers (toe/shoulder) said Wednesday that the back injury that sidelined him the last few weeks was "a minor thing" and shouldn't be an issue moving forward, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Nabers dealt with numerous health concerns in recent months, sitting out the offseason program due to a toe injury that dates back to college and also bothered him during a standout rookie season, then suffering a shoulder injury early in training camp before tightness in his back popped up. He didn't play at all during the preseason, but he returned to practice last Monday and appeared to have no limitations while running at Wednesday's session. Afterward, he said, "Yeah, I feel like I'm always ready. When it's game time and those lights are on, I believe my body's going to turn it on." Next Wednesday's injury report will reveal whether or not Nabers has any limitations ahead of a Week 1 road matchup with the Commanders on Sunday, Sept. 7.

  • Ronnie Bell WR | DET

    Ronnie Bell: Finds home on practice squad

    Bell signed with the Lions' practice squad Wednesday.

    Bell cleared waivers after a lackluster preseason where he caught five of six targets for 62 yards over three games. The 2023 seventh-round pick will continue to refine his craft while he awaits his next chance in the league.
