Hand (knee) worked out with the Cowboys on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hand suffered a knee injury in August last year and spent the entire season on IR. He's now healthy again and looking to latch on with an NFL organization. Hand last saw game action in 2022, when he logged 12 tackles, one defensed pass and one forced fumble over four regular-season contests with the Bears.

Hand (knee) was placed on injured reserve Sunday and is out for the season, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The cornerback had to leave practice early Wednesday after going down following a deep pass during an 11-on-11 drill, and it was later revealed that he suffered a knee injury. Hand signed with the Falcons in June after getting waived by the Bears in April of 2023. The 2020 fifth-round pick of the Vikings last saw NFL action in 2022.

Hand was waived by the Bears on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hand now will head to waivers, where he'll try and catch on with another team for the upcoming campaign. The 2020 fifth-round pick logged 12 tackles (nine solo) in four games last season, while spending time on both Chicago's active roster and practice squad.

Hand didn't post a tackle in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18, and ended the season with three tackles over four games played.

EDGE Analysis

Hand just finished his third year in the league, playing a total of 27 games and recording 25 tackles. He'll be an unrestricted free agent and try to compete for a roster spot in 2023.

Hand was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Hand was forced to miss the Vikings' Week 18 victory over the Bears while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. This was second time that he was sidelined by the virus, and he also battled a hamstring injury during the campaign. As a result, he was limited to only nine contests during which he racked up five total tackles in 2021.

The Vikings placed Hand (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It's not clear whether Hand has tested positive for the virus, but he'll land on the COVID-19 list for the second time this season. It's unlikely that he'll have enough time to clear protocols ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, and he'll end the season with five solo tackles across nine appearances if he's unable to take the field in Week 18.

Hand (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hand as been sidelined since Oct. 5, presumably after testing positive for COVID-19. He has played exclusively on special teams in two games this season, racking up three tackles in the process.

Hand (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear whether or not Hand tested positive for the virus, but he'll be unavailable until he clears the health and safety protocols regardless.

Hand (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Hand missed the last two games due to a hamstring injury. In the season opener, he played exclusively on special teams. Hand will likely serve in a similar role in Week 4 against the Browns if Bashaud Breeland (illness) is good to go.

The Vikings listed Hand (hamstring) as out for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hand was activated off the COVID-19 list Friday, but he still hasn't shaken the hamstring injury that caused him to miss Week 2. The 2020 fifth-round pick has primarily operated in a special-teams capacity for the Vikings this season, so his absence shouldn't have an effect on Minnesota's defensive rotations.
