January 8th, 2024 at 9:03pm CST by Ben Levine

A handful of practice squad moves to pass along:

Arizona Cardinals

Released: WR Dan Chisena, RB Corey Clement, DL Jacob Slade, DL Kendal Vickers, LB Davion Taylor

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Cardinals are releasing Clement from the practice squad so he can catch on with a contender for the playoffs. The running back has spent much of the past two seasons in Arizona, collecting 109 yards from scrimmage in 12 games. He spent the first chunk of his career with the Eagles, including 2017 and 2018 campaigns where he combined for 895 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns.

Minor NFL Transactions: 10/21/23

October 21st, 2023 at 8:30pm CST by Adam La Rose

Here are the minor moves made around the league in advance of the Week 7 slate of Sunday games:

Arizona Cardinals

Activated from NFI list: CB Garrett Williams
Elevated: RB Damien Williams, CB Bobby Price

Elevated: DL Lacale London, TE Tucker Fisk

Baltimore Ravens

Los Angeles Chargers

Elevated: WR Keelan Doss, S Mark Webb

Miami Dolphins

Elevated: TE Tanner Conner

New England Patriots

Elevated: WR Jalen Reagor, DT Trysten Hill

New York Giants

Elevated: QB Tommy DeVito, G Jalen Mayfield

Seattle Seahawks

Signed to active roster: C Joey Hunt
Waived: OL Ben Brown
Elevated: WR Easop Winston, RB SaRodorick Thompson

Washington Commanders

Elevated: DT Abdullah Anderson, CB Tariq Castro-Fields

Dulcich already had one IR stint this season due to an aggravation of last year’s hamstring injury. The 2022 third-rounder has appeared in only two contests so far this season, and in the most recent one he suffered yet another setback. As a result, he will once again be shut down for at least four weeks.

The Giants’ decision to again promote DeVito points to starter Daniel Jones missing another game. Indeed, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Jones is considered a “longshot” to play tomorrow against the Commanders. It will in all likelihood be Tyrod Taylor under center for New York in Week 7 while Jones continues to recover from his neck injury.

Bills Reduce Roster To 53 Players

August 29th, 2023 at 7:16pm CST by Ben Levine

The Bills have been busy today, releasing a pair of offensive linemen, trading defensive end Boogie Basham to the Giants, and shifting Von Miller to the reserve/PUP list. The team eventually finalized their roster, cutting down their squad to 53 players:

Released:

DT Eli Ankou
LS Reid Ferguson
WR Andy Isabella
RB Ty Johnson
LB A.J. Klein
OL Greg Mancz
S Dean Marlowe

Waived:

S Zayne Anderson
WR Marcell Ateman
CB Alex Austin
OL Nick Broeker
CB Kyron Brown
DE Kameron Cline

RB Darrynton Evans
OL Richard Gouraige
LB Travin Howard
CB Ja’Marcus Ingram
OL Kevin Jarvis
WR KeeSean Johnson
RB Jordan Mims
WR Tyrell Shavers

TE Joel Wilson

Placed on IR:

QB Matt Barkley

Dean Marlowe was traded to the Bills last November, and the safety began his second stint with the organization after spending three-plus seasons with the organization between 2017 and 2020. The veteran ended up starting a pair of playoff games for Buffalo, collecting seven tackles and an interception. The 31-year-old re-signed with the Bills back in May.

A.J. Klein was another former Bills player added midway through the 2022 season. It was a whirlwind season for the veteran LB. Klein was released by Buffalo in March, and he ended up spending time with the Giants, Ravens, and Bears before returning to the Bills in November. He collected 11 tackles in six games before putting up zeros in a pair of playoff games.
