Here are Tuesday’s minor moves:
Buffalo Bills
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: S Terrell Burgess
Carolina Panthers
- Signed off Packers’ practice squad: TE Messiah Swinson
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: T Tyler Smith
Dallas Cowboys
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: DE Viliami Fehoko
Houston Texans
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: RB Jawhar Jordan, DL Pheldarius Payne
Kansas City Chiefs
- Signed: DL Marlon Tuipulotu
Seattle Seahawks
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: DL Buddha Jones
Tennessee Titans
- Waived: LB Luke Gifford
- Removed from IR via injury settlement: WR Tre’Shaun Harrison
The Eagles waived Tuipulotu to make room for waiver claim Byron Young. Tuipulotu had worked as an Eagles rotational DT, playing 232 snaps in 2022 and 162 last season. A 2021 sixth-round pick, Tuipulotu notched two sacks and three tackles for loss last season.
Early September is a bit earlier than most teams poach a player of another club’s P-squad. The Panthers doing so means they must carry Swinson, a rookie UDFA out of Arizona State, on their 53-man roster for at least three weeks. Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas are battling injuries. Swinson joins those two, veteran Jordan Matthews and rookie fourth-rounder Ja’Tavian Sanders on a rare five-TE depth chart.
