The Rams waived Winn on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Winn got the start in Saturday's preseason finale against the Browns, when he completed 15 of 23 passes for 190 yards and one touchdown while being sacked four times and rushing for seven yards on three carries. He has not played in an NFL regular-season game since entering the league in May of 2023 as an undrafted free agent. Assuming he clears waivers, Winn will look to catch on with another team in need of a practice squad quarterback.

The Rams waived Castles on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Castles did not haul in a catch across two preseason games with the Rams and will not be on the team's 53-man roster heading into the regular season. Assuming he clears waivers, Castles will look to catch on with a team's practice squad to provide depth at tight end.

Williams, who's been out for a week with an undisclosed injury, returned to practice Sunday, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams took a hard hit to the head during the Patriots' preseason game versus Minnesota on Saturday, Aug. 16. While the nature of his injury still is unclear, the 22-year-old missed the subsequent week of practices and was held out of the preseason finale against the Giants. Williams was selected in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, and he is expected to slot into a starting role at some point during his rookie season. Therefore, it will be worth monitoring his injury status leading up to New England's regular-season opener against the Raiders on Sunday, Sept. 7. Otherwise, Stefon Diggs (knee), DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Mack Hollins would be in the mix to start Week 1.

Cleveland released Brown on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brown logged six tackles (three solo) across three preseason games, but he likely won't be on Cleveland's 53-man roster at the start of the 2025 regular season. The veteran corner will explore his next options and should garner interest from teams looking to bolster depth in the secondary. Brown appeared in six regular-season games for Cleveland in 2024 before ending the season on IR due to a foot injury.

McKee is dealing with a fractured thumb and may not be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though McKee's injury brings his availability for the beginning of the regular season into question, Rapoport notes that the issue isn't major, adding that the fracture is to "just the top of the thumb." Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports that the quarterback suffered the injury during practice and agrees that it's not expected to be a long-term issue. The Eagles traded for Sam Howell in a deal with Minnesota on Sunday, giving them insurance in case McKee does indeed to need to sit out the team's opener Thursday, Sept. 4 against Dallas.

The Giants released Wallace on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallace signed with the Giants at the beginning of training camp. He played in two of the Giants' preseason games and finished with six tackles (three solo), but he will not be on the team's 53-man roster heading into the regular season. Wallace will explore his next options and look to catch on with a team searching for veteran depth in the secondary.

The Bills waived/injured DuBose (shoulder) on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

DuBose injured his shoulder during Wednesday's training camp practice, which led to him missing Saturday's preseason finale against the Buccaneers. DuBose will go on waivers, but he'll revert to the Bills' injured reserve if he goes unclaimed, which would force him to miss the entire 2025 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with Buffalo.

The Bills waived Young on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Young signed with the Bills on Wednesday after being let go by the Chiefs two days prior. He saw extended action during the Bills' preseason finale against the Buccaneers on Saturday, when he logged 16 carries for 53 yards while adding three catches on as many targets for 40 yards. With James Cook, Ray Davis, Ty Johnson and Frank Gore occupying the Bills' four running backs on the depth chart, there simply wasn't enough room for Young on the 53-man roster. Assuming he clears waivers, Young will look to catch on with a team looking for backfield depth, though he could return to Buffalo to serve on the practice squad.

The Bills waived Sokol on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

It's the second time in two weeks that the Bills let go of Sokol, who played in all three of Buffalo's preseason games and finished with one catch (on two targets) for two yards while adding a solo tackle. Assuming he clears waivers, Sokol will explore his next options and pursue signing with a team in need of depth at tight end, likely on the practice squad.

The Vikings released Rypien on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rypien had been fourth on Minnesota's QB depth chart throughout camp, but for a brief moment it looked like he could move up when the team traded Sam Howell to Philadelphia on Sunday morning. However, that move was quickly followed by the Vikings' signing of veteran Carson Wentz, and Minnesota has opted to move on from Rypien with rookie Max Brosmer claiming the No. 3 QB spot. Rypien could draw interest from another team looking to add veteran depth at the quarterback position.
