Top Makai Polk News

  • Makai Polk: Cut by Atlanta

    The Falcons waived Polk on Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Polk has been bouncing around the league since going undrafted out of Mississippi State in 2022 and put together a 1,000-yard season with the CFL's Toronto Argonauts in 2024, but the 23-year-old has yet to appear in a regular-season game in the NFL.

  • Falcons' Makai Polk: Catches on with Atlanta

    The Falcons signed Polk to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

    Polk signed with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent in May of 2022. He never saw NFL regular-season action but did spend stints on the practice squad with the Ravens and Giants in 2022 and 2023. Polk played for the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL during the 2024 season, finishing with 61 catches (on 86 targets) for 1,024 yards and five touchdowns across 17 regular-season games.

  • Makai Polk: Tries out with Cardinals

    Polk (undisclosed) had a tryout with the Cardinals on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Polk reached an injury settlement with the Ravens early in training camp. His workout in Arizona indicates he has recovered from the undisclosed injury he was dealing with. The pass catcher is now looking for a new landing spot.

  • Makai Polk: Waived/injured by Ravens

    Polk (undisclosed) has been waived with an injury designation by Baltimore, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Polk will revert to the Ravens' injured reserve if he ultimately goes unclaimed on waivers. Polk was competing against a crowded wide-receiver room before the team opted to go in this direction. He spent a few weeks on Baltimore's practice squad after failing to make it through roster cuts at the conclusion of training camp last season.

  • Ravens' Makai Polk: Returning to Baltimore

    Polk was claimed off waivers by the Ravens on Tuesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.

    Polk was waived by the Giants after spending last season on their practice squad, and he will now return to Baltimore where he signed as an undrafted free agent in 2022. The 21-year-old will look to compete for a depth spot heading into the upcoming campaign.

  • Makai Polk: Gets let go

    Polk was waived by the Giants on Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Polk spent most of last season on the team's practice squad and ultimately signed a reserve/future deal in January. However, his time in New York has come to an end, and he'll now have to earn an opportunity elsewhere.

  • Giants' Makai Polk: Staying with Big Blue

    Polk signed a reserve/future contract with the Giants on Monday.

    Polk signed with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent in May, though he didn't survive the team's final roster cuts and was eventually cut from the team's practice squad Sept. 27. The 21-year-old then immediately signed with the Giants' practice squad, and he received his first elevation ahead of Saturday's divisional-round loss to the Eagles. While he did not see any action during this contest, Polk now will have a chance to carve out a more significant role ahead of the 2023 season.

  • Giants' Makai Polk: Earns first career elevation

    The Giants elevated Polk from the practice squad Friday to the active roster for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against Philadelphia, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Polk, an undrafted rookie out of Mississippi State, spent the majority of the 2022 campaign on the Giants' practice squad but was never elevated to the active roster. Per Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site, Polk's elevation is likely a reward for his time and work on the practice squad, which suggests the wideout isn't expected to see many snaps during the playoff matchup.
