Eichenberg was once a prized draft pick out of Notre Dame the Dolphins traded up in the second round to acquire in 2021, but he struggled for most of his time in Miami and then missed the 2025 season with an offseason leg injury. Eichenberg was released Monday with a failed physical designation.
It's a shame to get rid of a player who grew up near the Windy City, but it's pretty clear that Amegadjie isn't in the Bears' plans going forward. The 2024 third-round pick likely would have been cut in last season's training camp if not for his Day 2 draft upside. His struggles blocking in space led the Bears to start working him at guard instead of tackle.
As I wrote back on January 6, Atlanta's contract adjustment for Kirk Cousins indicated that they were going to cut him, given that they would have a truly unpalatable cap hit next year if they did not. Now Adam Schefter is reporting that the Falcons are planning to do so before the start of the new league year, likely as a post-June 1 designation, a move that will give the team a bit more cap space now and save quite a bit next year.
Cox will give the Packers another pass-rushing option after they lost superstar Micah Parsons to a season-ending ACL tear in Week 15. An undrafted pickup in 2023, Cox impressed last season with five tackles for loss, four sacks, and a forced fumble in just seven games. However, he hasn't factored in this year after suffering a groin injury in the Packers' season-opening loss to the Lions. Now returning from a 13-game absence, Cox could have an opportunity to make an impact down the stretch.
The team officially waived the 2024 third-round pick on Monday following the latest dust-up between the wide receiver and the club. Burton did not make the trip to Buffalo for the team's 39-34 loss to the Bills. Hours before the game, the team announced that Burton was going to be suspended for the contest, which penalizes him by missing a game check. When asked about that suspension on Monday afternoon, Bengals coach Zac Taylor announced that Burton will no longer be with the team.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Diggs asked for and was granted his release. Diggs was in his second season with the Titans. This is actually the second season in a row in which Diggs won't finish the season for Tennessee. Diggs' 2024 campaign came to a close after eight starts when he suffered a season-ending Lisfranc injury. He played one more game for the team this year before being granted his exit.

Conner was a feel-good story as a rookie, making the team as an undrafted free agent in 2022, Miami's first season with coach Mike McDaniel at the helm, along with offensive coordinator Frank Smith and tight ends coach Jon Embree. Conner was a converted college wide receiver out of Idaho State and seen as a developmental prospect with potential. He played 13 games as a rookie but mostly on special teams and was only targeted three times that season, without a catch.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans are releasing veteran wide receiver Tyler Lockett, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 33-year-old receiver asked for his release and was granted it Monday, the source said. Lockett is expected to be free to sign with another team after 4 p.m. ET Wednesday. Lockett had signed a one-year deal worth up to $6 million with the Titans in April.
CLEVELAND -- Miami Dolphins quarterback Quinn Ewers will serve as the team's backup quarterback during Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns, marking the first time on the active gameday roster. Zach Wilson, who was the Dolphins' backup quarterback for the first six games of the season, is inactive for Sunday's game and will serve as the emergency quarterback. The reason for Ewers' promotion is currently unknown.
"I'm always thinking about our players and what's best for our players," Stefanski said. "And I want to make sure when it comes to young football players, particularly at the quarterback position, that you are intentional about your decision-making, and that's really all it is. So, excited for all our guys."
"We're always deep diving on that," McDaniel said. "We have discussions on what's out there anytime a player gets injured, and then we assess short-term, long-term relative to our own assets. We'll be looking at that. I know (general manager) Chris (Grier) and his staff are as we speak, and there could be potentially be something."
Clelin Ferrell joined the Commanders during Adam Peters' first offseason as general manager. The defensive end did enough for the front-office leader to bring him along from the San Francisco 49ers, but it never looked like it would work out. Despite his struggles and waning reps, Washington gave him another one-year deal, although this time around came with no guarantees attached whatsoever.
The Jacksonville Jaguars released Darnell Savage on Tuesday, one year after signing the veteran safety to a three-year contract in free agency. Savage started 13 games in 2024, but his playing time decreased this season because the Jaguars signed Eric Murray in free agency and veteran Andrew Wingard won the other starting safety spot. Savage was rotating with third-year player Antonio Johnson and rookie Rayuan Lane III as a backup.
