Minor NFL Transactions: 9/9/22

September 9th, 2022 at 6:12pm CST by Ely Allen

Today’s minor moves leading up to Week 1:

Chicago Bears

Released with injury settlement: WR Tajae Sharpe
Released: DT Mike Pennel

Cleveland Browns

Promoted from practice squad: CB Herb Miller

Green Bay Packers

Waived with injury settlement: DT Akial Byers, S Innis Gaines

Houston Texans

Released: RB Royce Freeman

Philadelphia Eagles

Released with injury settlement: WR Greg Ward

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Waived with injury settlement: DT Elijah Ponder

Tennessee Titans

Placed on IR: DB Elijah Molden, LB Chance Campbell

The Texans had recently re-signed Freeman after he failed to make the initial 53-man roster. Houston will move forward with rookie Dameon Pierce, Rex Burkhead, and Dare Ogunbowale at running back.

Ward has been with the Eagles on-and-off since signing with the team after going undrafted in 2017. His first two seasons consisted mostly of time on the practice squad. The former University of Houston quarterback then took a hiatus from the NFL to sign with the Alliance of American Football. When the AAF suspended operations, Ward re-joined the Eagles. He had a bit of a breakout year in 2020, catching 53 passes for 419 yards and six touchdowns, but took a bit of a backseat in Philadelphia’s offense last season.

Miller was called up as a response to Browns cornerback Greedy Williams being placed on injured reserve today. Miller will slot in behind Denzel Ward, Greg Newsome II, Martin Emerson, and A.J. Green as the secondary faces off against their former teammate Baker Mayfield in Week 1.
