Tennessee signed Osborn to the practice squad Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

After being released by Tennessee on Sunday, Osborn will join the Titans' practice squad. The 29-year-old has plenty of NFL experience, suiting up for the Vikings and Patriots throughout his career. In 66 regular-season games, he recorded 165 catches for 1,902 yards and 16 touchdowns. Osborn could find his way to the field during the 2026 campaign, though he's not expected to be much of a contributor if he does.

The Titans signed Montgomery to its practice squad Monday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Montgomery totaled two catches for 25 over his three preseason games, which helped to earn him a place on the Titans' practice squad to start the new campaign. He was productive with an age advantage at John Carroll, but it may take injuries for him to be elevated to Tennessee's active roster in 2026.

The Titans waived Beatty from their practice squad Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Beatty joined Tennessee's practice squad Monday after missing the cut for the initial 53-man roster, but he's now in line to become a free agent again. The undrafted rookie will have to seek out another opportunity with a different club.

Tennessee signed Restrepo to its practice squad Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Restrepo made Tennessee's initial 53-man roster for 2026, but he was abruptly waived Monday to make room for new acquisitions. Now he's back with the organization as a member of the practice squad, and since the Titans only have five receivers on their active roster, he might be closer to the field than most practice-squad wideouts.

Coker is listed as a starting wide receiver on the Panthers' unofficial depth chart.

Despite going undrafted in 2024, Coker has made his presence felt through two pro campaigns, resulting in 65 catches (on 89 targets) for 872 yards and five touchdowns in 22 regular-season games. His defining moment of sorts occurred the last time he was on the field for a contest that counts, when he torched the Rams for 9-134-1 on 12 targets in a wild-card loss. Coker will continue to operate as a complementary option to No. 1 WR Tetairoa McMillan for QB Bryce Young in 2026.

Minnesota waived Fleming (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Unless he's claimed during the current waiver period, Fleming will become a free agent once again. He boasts intriguing speed (4.44 40-yard dash), but he wasn't especially productive at Tulane.

The Chargers waived Brown (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Brown reverted to the Chargers' IR after going unclaimed on waivers earlier in the week, but he's now on track to become a free agent and seek out another opportunity elsewhere.

Odunze "should be all good" after leaving Thursday's practice with an apparent right leg injury, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Odunze exited in the first hour of Thursday's session, but despite attempting to stay on the field, he was escorted off of it with team trainers. Wiederer's report seems to back up that Odunze's new health concern isn't a serious one, but he'll still enter Week 1 prep with a question mark regarding his status. With fellow WR Luther Burden also tending to a groin injury, the Bears currently have only Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas and Jahdae Walker as healthy options at the position on the active roster.

Odunze sustained an apparent right leg injury during Thursday's practice session, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Per the report, Odunze did not seem overly concerned about the injury and attempted to stay on the field, but the training staff decided to bring his day to an early end. His status will be updated again when more details are released, but as things stand both Odunze and Luther Burden (groin) are less than 100 percent. Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas and Jahdae Walker are next in line on the depth chart.

Coach Ben Johnson said Tuesday that Odunze has had no issues this summer with the foot injury that plagued him last season, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.

Odunze was able to play through listed ankle and heel injuries through Week 13 last season, but a stress fracture in his foot sidelined him Weeks 14-18 before he returned for Chicago's two postseason contests. In 14 appearances including playoffs, he posted a 48-749-6 line on 102 targets, recording 13 receptions of 20-plus yards along the way. As the ninth overall pick in the 2024 Draft, Odunze has a 51.3 percent catch rate (98 for 191) in his two-year career, but he's made up for it with 14.2 YPC. If the aforementioned foot injury is a thing of the past, Odunze will remain a key target for QB Caleb Williams along with TE Colston Loveland and WR Luther Burden (groin) in 2026.
