The Colts signed Ajiake to a one-year contract extension Monday.

Ajiake was signed by the Colts in mid-September after initially failing to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He ended up appearing in 16 regular-season games and accumulated 32 tackles (13 solo), including 0.5 sacks, while contributing on both defense and special teams. Ajiake will aim to impress the coaching staff during OTAs, minicamp and training camp in order to earn a larger role for himself in 2026.

The Jets signed Pritchett to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Pritchett signed with the Jets in late April after not being selected by a team during the 2025 NFL Draft. The South Alabama product failed to make the Jets' 53-man roster at the end of training camp but opted to stick around with New York on the practice squad. Pritchett wasn't elevated to the active roster during the regular season, but he'll be a part of the Jets' offseason activities and be eligible to participate in OTAs, minicamp and training camp, where he'll look to impress the coaching staff enough to earn a spot on the active roster for 2026.

Scott signed a reserve/future contract with the Ravens on Monday, Justin Robertson of the team's official site reports.

Scott signed with the Ravens in late April as an undrafted free agent, and the fullback out of Army opted to stay with the organization as a member of the practice squad after failing to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. Scott did not appear in a regular-season game in 2025, but he'll be with the Ravens during offseason activities and aim toward cracking the active roster for the 2026 campaign. However, his playing opportunities figure to be limited for as long as veteran fullback Patrick Ricard is on the roster.

The Buccaneers signed Wright to a reserve/future contract Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Wright was on and off of Tampa Bay's practice squad throughout the 2025 season, and he appeared in three contests, turning three carries into six yards while playing seven total offensive snaps. The running back will now have the chance to participate in the Buccaneers' offseason activities, and he'll look to compete for a reserve role behind Bucky Irving with top backup Rachaad White set to become a free agent.

The Buccaneers signed Williams to a reserve/future contract Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

The undrafted free agent out of LSU earned a spot on the Buccaneers' 53-man roster after a strong training camp. His rookie season was a bit tumultuous, as he missed time while in the league's concussion protocol before being served a six-game suspension by the NFL in mid-November for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy. He was waived by the Bucs on Dec. 29 before being signed to the practice squad one day later, and he'll stick around with Tampa Bay during offseason activities with the aim of cracking the team's active roster for a second straight year.

The Buccaneers signed Houston to a reserve/future contract Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Houston spent the entirety of the 2025 campaign as a member of the practice squad in Tampa Bay, but he failed to appear in any contests. The wide receiver will now have the chance to participate in the Buccaneers' offseason activities, and he'll look to impress in an effort to earn an opportunity with the active roster in 2026.

Cracraft reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Cracraft played 10 snaps (seven on offense, three on special teams) during the Commanders' 24-17 win over the Eagles on Sunday, when he returned one punt for one yard. He ended up appearing in the final two games of the regular season for Washington after joining the team's practice squad in mid-November. The veteran wide receiver will explore his options as an unrestricted free agent.

Turner reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Turner played two snaps on special teams without showing up on the box score otherwise during the Titans' 41-7 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday. He spent most of the regular season without a team after being cut by the Commanders at the end of training camp but managed to catch on with the Titans on the practice squad. The 2022 fifth-rounder will be a unrestricted free agent and look to sign with a team in need of a tight end who can also contribute on special teams.

Blackshear reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Blackshear was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday's 35-8 loss to the Bills, ultimately failing to appear in the contest. The running back spent time with the practice squad of the Titans, Steelers and Jets this season, and he'll now enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Akers reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Akers played six snaps (one on offense, five on special teams) during the Seahawks' 13-3 win over the 49ers on Saturday. He ended up being elevated to Seattle's active roster three times in the regular season and will be available to be called up during the playoffs should the Seahawks require another contributor on special teams and out of the backfield.
