Saints | Kevin Austin let go Mon Aug 31, 02:47 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Kevin Austin was waived Monday, Aug. 31.
Link to storyCleveland Browns CB Isaiah Bond (head) is believed to be out of the concussion protocol, but it is not known if he will practice Monday, Aug. 31, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: Bond left Saturday's preseason game against the Buffalo Bills with a head injury. The second-year receiver appeared to hit his head while making a catch in the first half of the game. He was taken into the medical tent and, a short time later, walked back with trainers to the locker room for further evaluation. He was listed as questionable to return to the game to be checked for a concussion. If we don't find out more this week, we'll certainly know more when Week 1 rolls around, and injuries must be reported. |

Link to storyFormer Kansas City Chiefs RB Emari Demercado was claimed off waivers by the Dallas Cowboys Monday, Aug. 31.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys cut Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah on Sunday, which left them with Malik Davis as the only back behind Javonte Williams on their depth chart. Demercado signed with the Chiefs after spending his first three NFL seasons with the Cardinals. Kansas City waived Demercado on Sunday. He ran 126 times for 819 yards and three touchdowns while catching 50 passes for 324 yards and a score. |

Link to storyMinnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy (ankle) will likely be sidelined for several weeks because of his ankle injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
| Footballguys view: Despite rumblings that suggested McCarthy could be cut or traded by Sunday's roster deadline, the former first-round pick made the Vikings' initial 53-man roster. McCarthy opened camp with a chance to compete with Kyler Murray for the starting job, but never managed to make the battle interesting. As preseason progressed, reports suggested Minnesota might move McCarthy to an interested suitor (like the Los Angeles Chargers, led by McCarthy's collegiate coach, Jim Harbaugh) by the end of the month. But for now, McCarthy is QB3 in Minnesota behind Murray and Carson Wentz. |

Link to storyRookie Jadarian Price is ready to lead the Seattle Seahawks' backfield while it waits for Zach Charbonnet to return.
| Footballguys view: Price is the clear-cut No. 1 running back in Seattle, and backing him up will be George Holani, who gained just 73 yards on 22 carries last season, and Emanuel Wilson, a career backup in Green Bay who signed with the Seahawks this offseason. As ProFootballTalk.com suggested, the good news for the Seahawks is that Price got rave reviews in the offseason, with head coach Mike Macdonald saying he was ready for a big workload and quarterback Sam Darnold calling Price a special player. |

Free-agent RB Dameon Pierce (Eagles) signed with the Philadelphia Eagles' practice squad Monday, Aug. 31.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks RB George Holani will be mixed in with RB Jadarian Price in the running game and on third down.
| Footballguys view: Rookie Jadarian Price is ready to lead the Seahawks' backfield while it waits for Zach Charbonnet to return. But ESPN.com's Brady Henderson believes the team will include a heavy dose of Holani, whose receiving and pass-blocking skills seem perfectly suited for third-down work. With a RB64 ADP and 17th-round price, Holani is essentially a free square play. |
Denver Broncos OLB Jonah Elliss will become a starter with LB Jonathon Cooper unavailable to start the season. EDGE Que Robinson will also see looks, and defensive coordinator Vance Joseph said Robinson has the tools to become a 10-sack guy.

Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner (foot) was placed on the reserve/injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, with a designation to return. He will be forced to miss a minimum of four games.
| Footballguys view: Conner missed the final 14 games last season with a severe ankle injury. He did not start training camp on PUP, but over more than a month of practices, he did not do more than participate in individual position drills. He cannot practice for at least two weeks. After that, he can have a 21-day practice window opened to prepare for activation. The earliest he can come back is in Week 5 against the Detroit Lions. With rookie Jeremiyah Love's Week 1 status uncertain due to an ankle injury, Tyler Allgeier could be relied upon heavily early in the season. |

New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) was placed on the reserve/injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, with a designation to return. He will miss a minimum of four games as he recovers from a hamstring injury suffered early in training camp.
| Footballguys view: Tyson suffered a right hamstring injury during training camp this offseason, so this outcome was not unexpected. A return by the Week 5 matchup against the Vikings would be ideal, but not guaranteed. For what it's worth, this injury is apparently unrelated to his hamstring issue at Arizona State. With Tyson out, the Saints will rely on a wide receiver group consisting of Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele. Rookies Barion Brown and Bryce Lance will have an opportunity to prove themselves right away, while Kevin Austin Jr. sits at the end of the depth chart. |
Houston Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) has been placed on the reserve/injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, with a designation to return, according to a source. He'll miss a minimum of four games.
| Footballguys view: Dell missed all of 2025 after suffering multiple torn ligaments and a dislocated kneecap in the Texans' Week 16 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024. Throughout camp, Houston coach DeMeco Ryans explained how Dell's comeback still had steps to clear. Ryans was asked Aug. 17 whether Dell would be ready for the regular season, and the coach preached patience, saying Houston had a plan for its 2023 third-round pick. Houston will rely on wideouts Nico Collins, Xavier Hutchinson, recently acquired Kayshon Boutte, and Jaylin Noel to fill the void. |

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list Sunday, Aug. 30.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet began training camp on the PUP while working his way back from ACL surgery. All indications are that his rehab has gone well, but he was hurt in the divisional round of the playoffs in January and didn't have surgery until late in February. He won't be eligible to play until the Seahawks host the 49ers in Week 5, but a change to the PUP rules this year means he can begin practicing as early as Week 3. Jadarian Price and George Holani will be the team's top two backs until Charbonnet is ready to contribute. |

Green Bay Packers TE Luke Musgrave (neck) was placed on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list Sunday, Aug. 30.
| Footballguys view: Musgrave has been working through a neck injury that dates back to mandatory minicamp in early June. He opened training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. There hasn't been much news on him since his designation, but he'll have to miss at least four games. With the addition of Jonnu Smith, who signed with the team last week, the Packers are prepared to cover for Musgrave's absence. |

Green Bay Packers WR Savion Williams (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, but has been designated to return.
| Footballguys view: Williams suffered an ankle injury in the Packers' second preseason game against the Denver Broncos. He will now miss at least the first four weeks of the regular season, as the team will ease him back in. With Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, and Jayden Reed locked into the top three spots, Williams isn't expected to have a significant role upon return. |
Baltimore Ravens RB Adam Randall (undisclosed) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, but is designated to return.
| Footballguys view: Randall will be required to miss at least the first four games before he can be activated. The Ravens have not disclosed the specific injury connected to the move. Derrick Henry, Justice Hill, and Rasheen Ali are the three running backs on Baltimore's active roster. The move also leaves the Ravens with an open active-roster position that could be used on a waiver claim or veteran addition. |
