  • DeAndre Carter WR | CLE

    Browns' DeAndre Carter: Makes lone preseason appearance

    Carter returned three punts for 32 yards and one kickoff for 10 yards in Saturday's 19-17 preseason win over the Rams.

    Carter, who sat out the first two preseason games, made his lone appearance this summer. His experience as a returner makes him the favorite to claim a return job, but the 53-man roster projection from Zac Jackson of The Athletic puts him on the bubble. Undrafted rookie Gage Larvadain had a strong camp as a receiver and also returned punts during preseason competition. The Browns could leave Carter off the initial 53-man roster and then bring him back after sorting out other issues.

  • Jamari Thrash WR | CLE

    Browns' Jamari Thrash: Finishes strong preseason

    Thrash caught three of five targets for a team-high 42 yards in Saturday's 19-17 preseason win over the Rams.

    Thrash finished out a strong preseason with nine catches and 94 yards, both tied for most among Browns receivers. His second NFL preseason was better than his first, and he'll likely make the Browns' initial 53-man roster, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic. Thrash may have proven to coaches that he could be a regular for snaps as a slot receiver.

  • Gage Larvadain WR | CLE

    Browns' Gage Larvadain: Target leader in preseason finale

    Larvadain caught four of seven targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 19-17 preseason win over the Rams. He also returned three punts for 30 yards.

    Larvadain was on the field with the first-team offense and scored his touchdown late in the second quarter. The undrafted rookie played 21 snaps and in all four quarters. He survived the Browns' first round of cuts Sunday and has a chance to earn a spot on the initial 53-man roster, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic. If the Browns keep six receivers, Larvadain is close to a lock. If they keep five, then he's among a group that also includes DeAndre Carter -- as more of a returner than wideout -- and Kaden Davis. Diontae Johnson did not have a good camp and appears to be outside the bubble. Larvadain had a strong camp and finished the preseason with nine catches for 94 yards and the one touchdown. He also returned 10 punts for a 10.4 average and a long of 30 yards.

  • Ryan Miller WR | NYG

    Buccaneers' Ryan Miller: Two catches in preseason finale

    Miller brought in two of three targets for 18 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday night.

    Miller recorded multiple catches for the third time in as many preseason games. The 25-year-old had a busy exhibition slate that saw him generate a 10-95-0 line on 13 targets, but the Buccaneers' deep receiver depth chart may prove hard to crack come final cuts.

  • Simi Fehoko WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Simi Fehoko: Reaches end zone again

    Fehoko hauled in one of two targets for 10 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 20-10 preseason win versus the Raiders.

    After surprisingly sitting out the Cardinals' preseason opener, Fehoko scored TDs in both of the team's final two exhibitions, connecting with backup signal-caller Jacoby Brissett in Denver last Saturday and No. 3 QB Clayton Tune in the most recent contest. Fehoko has been listed as the direct backup to WR Marvin Harrison on Arizona's unofficial depth chart this month, and his performance may have been enough to earn him a spot on the initial roster ahead of Week 1.

  • Buccaneers' Kameron Johnson: Two catches in preseason loss

    Johnson (undisclosed) caught two of five targets for 34 yards in Saturday's 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills.

    Johnson had been sidelined with an undisclosed injury at practice, but he was able to make his return to action in the team's final preseason contest, playing 31 offensive snaps and 10 on special teams. The wide receiver also added two punt returns for 27 yards and a kick return for 57 yards in the victory. It's unclear if Johnson has proven enough to secure a spot on Tampa Bay's initial 53-man roster.

  • A.J. Henning WR | MIA

    Dolphins' AJ Henning: Plays in preseason finale

    Henning played 10 offensive snaps and three on special teams in Saturday's 14-6 preseason win over the Jaguars.

    Henning appeared to suffer a serious injury Thursday after he was carted off the field and spotted on crutches. However, he was able to get back on the field quickly and made his primary impact on special teams, logging one punt return for 18 yards.

  • Elijah Cooks WR | NO

    Eagles' Elijah Cooks: Busy in return from injury

    Cooks recorded two receptions on six targets for 14 yards in Friday's 19-17 preseason win over the Jets.

    Cooks suffered a shoulder injury in early August and missed the Eagles' second preseason game as a result. He returned to the field Friday and finished second on the team in targets while playing 36 offensive snaps. Cooks is unlikely to make the roster, but he could land on a practice squad.

  • Ontaria Wilson WR | NYJ

    Ontaria Wilson: Doesn't make roster

    Wilson was waived by the Jets on Sunday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Wilson hasn't made an NFL team out of camp since originally being signed out of college in 2023. However, he had significant success in the CFL in 2024 with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, so he could latch onto a practice squad or head north once again.

  • Dymere Miller WR | NYJ

    Dymere Miller: Waived by Jets

    Miller was waived by the Jets on Sunday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Miller signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent following the 2025 NFL Draft. He made one reception for 24 yards across three games in the preseason.
