Fountain was waived by the Colts on Saturday, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports.

The 2018 fifth-rounder never could get healthy enough to compete for a depth role, fracturing his ankle last season when it appeared he could potentially make the team's initial 53-man roster. The Colts did offer Fountain an exclusive rights tender this past offseason so it's obvious they value his services at least somewhat. Don't be surprised to see Fountain return to the Colts' practice squad should he pass through waivers.

Jennings was waived by the Dolphins on Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

The 2019 fourth-round pick by Seattle sure seemed like a shoo-in for a roster spot with the Dolphins absent any capable wide receivers taller than 6-foot besides DeVante Parker and Preston Williams. That evidently wasn't the case, however, with Jakeem Grant, Isaiah Ford and Mack Hollins expected to act as the primary depth behind the aforementioned two starters. It'll be interesting to see whether Jennings makes it through waivers or not, as a number of WR-needy teams could be interested in his services.

Turner was waived by the Packers on Saturday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The cutting of Jake Kumerow, Darrius Shepherd, Reggie Begelton and Malik Turner sure seems to signal something else might be on the horizon for the Packers in terms of their receiving corps, as Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Equanimeous St. Brown are essentially the only form of depth at the position behind starters Davante Adams and Allen Lazard.

Moore (ankle) agreed to a restructuring of his one-year, $2.13 million contract Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

It's unclear if Moore was in serious jeopardy of being released or if the Seahawks were simply looking to save costs after signing Josh Gordon earlier in the week. In either case, Moore is now firmly entrenched on the team's roster, although he'll have to compete with the likes of Phillip Dorsett and the aforementioned Gordon -- when Gordon is eventually reinstated by the NFL -- for playing time.

The Falcons have released Treadwell, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

As a 2016 first-rounder, Treadwell carries name recognition, but his production with the Vikings last year was modest and he wasn't able to stick with the Falcons this time around. He'll look to catch on as a depth option elsewhere, but he's off the fantasy radar these days.

Shepherd was waived by the Packers on Saturday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Shepherd ended the 2019 campaign on the practice squad and it's entirely possible he could wind up there again to begin this season following Saturday's waive. Primarily a special teams player, it's unlikely Shepherd would be forced into any sort of major offensive snaps even if injuries were to whittle away at the team's depth.

Sims was waived by Washington on Saturday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

The move, along with the waiving of Trey Quinn, essentially confirms Dontrelle Inman and Antonio Gandy-Golden will be the No. 3 and 4 WRs to start the season, although it's possible the rash of early transactions by Washington could be in an effort to open up roster spots for additional signings down the road. In either case, expect the majority of the team's passing attack to funnel through Terry McLaurin and Steven Sims.

Thomas will be waived by the Patriots, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Thomas, who joined the team as an undrafted free agent, is a player who figures to land on the Patriots' practice squad should he go unclaimed on waivers. The Miami product has some untapped upside, so we wouldn't be surprised if he sees regular-season snaps at some point down the road this season.

The Rams waived Winston on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

Winston's collegiate production was impressive, but he couldn't make the cut with the Rams. The Washington State product may have a chance at the practice squad if he clears waivers.

The Rams waived Koski on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

Koski had an uphill battle to secure a roster spot as an undrafted free agent. The Rams may look to develop him on the practice squad if he clears waivers, as he posted a solid 42-868-8 line in his senior season at Cal Poly.
