The 30-year-old receiver has made a name for himself on special teams and as a blocker. He’s caught five balls over the last two years for the Raiders. Also waived/released by the the Rams on a quiet day of last cuts are: S Nick Andersen, OL A.J. Acuri, OL Austin Blaske, P Jack Bouwmeester, OL Wyatt Bowles, RB Dean Connors, S Alex Cook, OLB Devean Deal, WR Tru Edwards, CB Nyzier Fourqurean, LB Tomon Fox, CB Steven Gilmore, CB Al’zillion Hamilton, OL Blake Hance, OL Bryce Henderson, LB Nikha ...30 August 2026
Guerendo, still recovering from a pec injury, will miss at least the first four weeks of the regular season. This helps to clarify the Niners backfield situation headed into the season. Behind Christian McCaffrey will be some combination of Kaelon Black — who has drawn praise from coaches and QB Brock Purdy — and Jordan James, who missed most of training camp with a rib injury. Guerendo is a long way from playing time in the Niners offense.30 August 2026
Osborn largely spent the 2025 season as a free agent, joining the Falcons’ practice squad late in the year. He last appeared in an NFL game in 2024, playing seven games for the Patriots after spending four years with the Vikings. The Titans decide to part ways with the veteran as they go with younger depth at the wide receiver spot.30 August 2026
Colson was a third-round pick in 2024. He appeared in 11 games with one start, totaling 29 combined tackles and one pass breakup. Colson missed his entire second season with a shoulder injury. Expect another team to take a flyer on him in the next few days because of his draft pedigree.

Beckham’s spot on the depth chart is unclear, but he is unlikely to warrant FLEX treatment this season. Rookie WR Malachi Fields is reportedly slated for WR2 duties, and both WR Darius Slayton and WR Darnell Mooney could play ahead of Beckham. This is more of a feel-good story than an actionable fantasy-related item.30 August 2026
The writing was on the wall for Gray pretty much all offseason after Brian Daboll, who helped draft him, was fired. Najee Harris coming in to training camp late was just insult to injury at that point. The 26-year-old was in the final year of his rookie contract and will look to catch on elsewhere.30 August 2026
A 2024 seventh-rounder, Thomas appeared in all 17 games for the Cowboys last season, making four starts. He was supposedly a camp contender for the Cowboys’ blindside gig, but ended up fighting for second-team right tackle status. He’s a body to throw at the Texans’ ever-present OL problems.30 August 2026
Jones is a former undrafted free agent, signing with the Dolphins out of college in 2021. He started 30-of-49 games for the Dolphins across four seasons but spent all of last season on injured reserve with the Cowboys. The 49ers signed him as interior offensive line depth and he got some run with the first-team offense before a calf strain slowed him down. Jones now re-enters the free agent pool.30 August 2026
Patterson had slowly been phased out of the Texans’ OL plans and winds up dealt away after the team spent multiple picks on interior linemen in last month’s draft. He’ll challenge for the backup center position with the 49ers. Patterson started 21 games in three years with the Texans, though it’s fair to admit that it wasn’t exactly good experience.30 August 2026
Reporting had the Browns set to keep four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster, but this makes a little more sense. Gabriel was not spotted throwing at practice today, and now we know why. We have no idea when he suffered the back injury, but he’ll miss at least the first four weeks of the season.30 August 2026
Thomas earned a 39.2 PFF offense grade as a seventh-round rookie with the Cowboys last year. He will likely serve as a backup right tackle in Houston.30 August 2026
Jefferson was in the running for a rotational role this summer, but a handful of younger players ultimately passed him on the depth chart. Treylon Burks appears to be the team’s WR3 for Week 1 while Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey, and Antonio Williams are all vying for the WR4 gig.30 August 2026
Grupe, who had a “90% make rate in camp” per Mike Garafolo, has a chance to come aboard late and win a different kicking job. Spencer Shrader will kick for the Colts this year.30 August 2026
He lasted just nine days with the team. Shepard was signed before the Kayshon Boutte trade and the Boutte trade can be looked at as the end of any real chance for him to make the team. Shepard’s free agency was fairly slow and at 33 years old it wouldn’t be surprising if he had to sign to a practice squad if he wanted to keep playing.30 August 2026
Per 9NEWS’ Mike Klis, the Broncos will sign Murdock to their practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers. Murdock made a name for himself as a voluminous tackler and fumble-forcer at Buffalo, leading the MAC twice and the FBS once in the latter category.30 August 2026
Trey Lance will back up Justin Herbert. Uiagalelei was waived by the Chargers at roster cutdowns last year as well. He stuck on the team’s practice squad and signed a reserve/future deal this offseason. He has a shot at landing on LA’s practice squad once again.30 August 2026
The incentive-heavy deal is worth a maximum of $30 million for the longtime defensive stalwart, who comes out of a two-year retirement to chase another ring with the Rams. Donald worked out at the team facility multiple times throughout the offseason, making the signing less shocking than it otherwise would have been had there been no ties between the two sides earlier this summer. The Rams now carry one of the top defenses in the league after the acquisitions of Myles Garrett, Jaylen Watson, a ...30 August 2026
The Pats signed Hudson to a one-year deal in the offseason. He appeared in 11 games for the Giants last year, making two starts. Hudson has 60 career appearances and 19 starts. He should be able to find a new home over the next week or two as rosters shake out.30 August 2026
Tuttle began the 2025 season playing for the Titans and closed it playing for the Commanders, who released him today. He logged just 11 tackles and failed to pressure the opposing passer once.30 August 2026
This move was expected. Parsons himself said a few weeks ago that a Week 6 return was his “most optimistic” timeline. A spot on the reserve PUP list means Parsons must miss at least the first four months of the season. He is still recovering from the torn ACL he suffered in Week 15 of the 2025 season. Parsons should still be a force on the defensive front when he’s back, but that won’t happen until at least October.
