Philadelphia Eagles

Pittsburgh Steelers

Signed: OT Obinna Eze
Released: RB Greg Bell, WR Jalen Camp

Taiwan Jones will now look to catch on elsewhere after getting let go by the Giants. The veteran joined New York’s practice squad back in August and was elevated for the first two games of the season, with Jones returning one kick and one punt. It’s been a bit since Jones last contributed on offense, but the veteran was a reliable special teams player for the Bills for half a decade (two stints).

Elevated: CB Keenan Isaac, LB J.J. Russell

Tennessee Titans

Elevated: CB Shyheim Carter, TE Kevin Rader

Washington Commanders

Elevated: RB Derrick Gore

Walker’s elevation comes amidst a degree of uncertainty regarding Deshaun Watson‘s Sunday availability. The latter is dealing with a shoulder injury, but he has expressed confidence he will be able to suit up. In the event he is unable to play, though, Walker will provide insurance under center. NFL Network’s James Palmer reports Watson will be a game-time decision.

Chosen, formerly Robbie Anderson, made his Dolphins debut in Week 3, scoring a 68-yard touchdown on his only catch. His performance – along with other depth wideouts currently being sidelined for Miami – will give the 30-year-old a longer look with his new team.

Gore’s elevation will give him the chance to see regular season game action for the first time since 2021. The former UDFA recorded 361 scrimmage yards with the Chiefs that season, but a subsequent IR stint marked the end of his time in Kansas City. Gore has since spent time on the Saints’, and now Commanders’, taxi squads. Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post notes that fellow depth back Chris Rodriguez has bee ruled out with an illness, opening the door to Gore seeing limited snaps.

NFL Practice Squad Updates: 9/22/23

September 22nd, 2023 at 7:02pm CST by Ely Allen

The league’s practice squad transactions heading into the weekend:

Arizona Cardinals

Released from practice squad IR with injury settlement: S Jovante Moffatt

Carolina Panthers

Released from practice squad IR: CB Stantley Thomas-Oliver

Cincinnati Bengals

Signed: QB Reid Sinnett

Miami Dolphins

Signed: T Ryan Hayes
Released: T James Tunstall

New York Jets

Signed: OL Chris Glaser
Released: RB Xazavian Valladay

With starting quarterback Joe Burrow still nursing a calf injury that has hampered him throughout the first two weeks of the season, the signing of Sinnett becomes significant. Burrow’s status is reportedly still up in the air for this Sunday, and with practice squad quarterback Will Grier getting signed away to the Patriots’ active roster yesterday, Sinnett would now serve as QB2 to Jake Browning if Burrow can’t go.

Jets Set 53-Man Roster

August 29th, 2023 at 6:05pm CST by Ben Levine

The Jets have been in the limelight all offseason, and some of their lesser-known players have earned attention following the team’s participation in HBO’s Hard Knocks. The team had to move on from many of those unheralded players today, as the organization reduced their roster to 53 players:

Released:

FB Nick Bawden
QB Tim Boyle
LB Samuel Eguavoen
WR Alex Erickson
DL Bruce Hector
DL Jalyn Holmes
S Craig James
P Thomas Morstead
OL Adam Pankey
OL Greg Senat
DL Tanzel Smart
DL Pita Taumeopenu
WR Malik Taylor
LB Nick Vigil

Waived:

DL Deslin Alexandre
LB Claudin Cherelus
C Trystan Colon
S Trey Dean
RB Travis Dye
OL Chris Glaser
OL Grant Hermanns
TE E.J. Jenkins
LB Caleb Johnson
WR Jerome Kapp
RB Zonovan Knight
TE Zack Kuntz
OL Brent Laing
CB Derrick Langford
WR TJ Luther
CB Nehemiah Shelton
DL Marquiss Spencer
S Marquis Waters

Zonovan Knight made a name for himself as an UDFA in 2022. The running back was thrust into the Jets starting lineup, and he ultimately started four of his seven appearances. The RB finished the season with 400 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown on 98 touches. With Dalvin Cook added to a deep RBs depth chart, Knight seemed like a long shot to make the final roster.

Tim Boyle has bounced around the NFL a bit, but his only starting experience came with the Lions in 2021. The quarterback spent the 2022 campaign in Chicago, completing two of his eight pass attempts. It was uncertain if the Jets would keep three QBs on the roster, but the team appears content with just Aaron Rodgers and Zach Wilson at the position.

NFL Reserve/Futures Contracts: 1/9/23
