Mays (ankle) cleared waivers and reverted to the Jaguars' injured reserve, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Mays suffered the ankle injury during the preseason finale and was waived/injured by the Jags over the weekend, but he'll stick with the team after going unclaimed on waivers. The 25-year-old will spend the entirety of the season on IR unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

Mays will not return to Thursday's preseason tilt with Atlanta due to an ankle injury, Tad Dickman of the Jaguars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mays was originally considered questionable to return. While the injury is clearly severe enough to force the 24-year-old out of the contest, it's unclear how long he'll be sidelined after Thursday.

Mays and the Jaguars agreed on an undisclosed contract Wednesday, Phillip Heilman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mays was recently let go by the Browns after signing a reserve/futures contract, but was able to find a new team. The 25-year-old has eight games of NFL experience to his name, rushing for just one yard on four attempts during the 2017 season with Green Bay.

Mays was cut by the Browns on Monday, Nick Shook of the Browns' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mays signed a reserve/future contract Jan. 1, but in the end he was waived to make room for fellow running back L.J. Scott. The Utah State product's last regular-season action came when he appeared in eight games for the Packers after being drafted by them in 2017, logging four carries for one yard.

Mays signed a contract to join the Browns' practice squad Tuesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mays was drafted by Green Bay as a seventh-rounder back in 2017, but he was largely limited to special teams there and only notched one rushing yard on four carries when he was given a chance on offense. It's now possible he could get another chance to prove his worth in Cleveland should injuries strike either Nick Chubb or Duke Johnson.

Mays (hamstring) cleared waivers and reverted to injured reserve, according to the league's official transaction log.

The Packers waived Mays (hamstring) on Saturday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Wood, there's been talk that the two sides are discussing an injury settlement, which wouldn't allow the Packers to re-sign Mays to the practice squad. With a hamstring injury still in tow, another organization may not take a chance on Mays either, but agreeing to a settlement would hurt his chances of returning to Green Bay.

Mays (hamstring) is not playing in Thursday's preseason finale due to a hamstring injury, Josh Tolentino of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mays has not played all preseason and is in serious danger of missing the Packers final roster. With Aaron Jones suspended for the first two games of the regular season, Mays looks to be competing with Joel Bouagnon, who has 29 rushes for 76 yards and a touchdown so far this preseason, for a role on the active squad as during that period.
