Miami released Ferrell on Monday.

Ferrell initially made the Dolphins' 53-man roster, but he was one of several players let go Monday to make room for Miami's successful waiver claims. Ferrell is a vested veteran, so he immediately becomes a free agent. The Clemson product has extensive NFL experience and racked up 4.0 sacks over nine regular-season games between the Chargers and 49ers last year, so he could be an attractive option for teams looking for help on the edge.

The Patriots claimed Muasau off waivers Monday.

The Giants waived Muasau on Sunday. The Patriots claimed the 25-year-old to slot into the 53-man roster as one of the primary backups at inside linebacker. Muasau will likely see relief snaps behind Christian Elliss and Robert Spillane throughout the regular season. The Patriots released K.J. Britt in a corresponding move.

Roberts (undisclosed) cleared waivers and reverted to the Vikings' injured-reserve list Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

The linebacker was waived with an injury designation Sunday. Roberts needs to reach an injury settlement with Minnesota to have a chance to play in 2026.

The Patriots claimed Latu off waivers Monday.

The Eagles waived Latu on Sunday, but the tight end will not become a free agent. With Julian Hill (knee) done for the season, the Patriots needed additional depth at tight end behind Hunter Henry. The team released K.J. Britt in a corresponding move.

Dyson (undisclosed) reverted to the Vikings' injured-reserve list Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

The linebacker was waived with an injury designation earlier. Dyson will now need to reach an injury settlement with Minnesota to have a chance to play this season. The Bryant product last saw NFL regular-season action in 2024 with Carolina.

The Patriots released Britt on Monday.

Britt signed a one-year deal with the Patriots in March. The linebacker made the initial 53-man roster but will ultimately be released because the Patriots claimed tight end Cameron Latu off waivers from the Eagles. Britt is now a free agent and can sign with any franchise in need of additional depth at linebacker.

The Titans waived Diabate on Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Diabate signed with the Titans in March. The linebacker was projected to fill a depth role at linebacker but will now be subject to waivers. If Diabate goes unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any franchise that requires additional depth at linebacker.

Allen (undisclosed) reverted to the Vikings' injured-reserve list Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

The cornerback was waived with an injury designation by Minnesota earlier in the day. Allen will now need to reach an injury settlement with the team to have a chance to play in 2026.

The Falcons waived Harrison (undisclosed) on Monday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Harrison began camp on the active/NFI list but was activated in early August. He appeared in all three of Atlanta's preseason contests, so he appears to be past the issue that originally sidelined him. However, Harrison was cut Monday as part of a series of moves to clear the way for three players the Falcons added on waiver claims.

The Bengals released Hudson on Monday.

Hudson signed a one-year contract extension with the Bengals in January. The tight end played in 15 regular-season games for the team during 2025, producing 19 receptions for 168 yards and two touchdowns. The Bengals ultimately ended up keeping Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample, Erick All and Jack Endries at tight end. Hudson is now a free agent and can sign with any franchise's 53-man roster or practice squad.
