Cade York: Loses out in kicker battle
Tuesday, August 25, 2026 9:48 AM
The Jets will waive York on Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
He came up short in the battle for the Jets' kicking job, with Jason Sanders seemingly emerging as the victor in the aftermath of training camp and the team's first two preseason games. Since converting 24 of 32 field-goal attempts while appearing in all 17 games as a rookie with the Browns in 2022, York has bounced around the league over the last four years, spending time in the Giants, Commanders, Bengals and Jets organizations.

Chris Bell: Candidate to play in preseason finale
Tuesday, August 25, 2026 9:32 AM
Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that he's tentatively planning on having Bell (knee) play in Friday's preseason finale versus the Falcons, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
After completing his recovery from December surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee, Bell was reinstated from the NFI list Aug. 17 and returned to practice as a limited participant last week. The Dolphins were comfortable clearing him for full participation Monday, with Bell shedding his no-contact jersey for the first time since being activated. Bell seems to have bounced back well from Monday's session, but the Dolphins will see how he fares in the team's next two practices before his status for the preseason finale is decided. Even if Bell ends up sitting out against the Falcons, he looks like he'll be on track to have a role in the Dolphins' pass-catching corps Week 1 versus the Raiders.

Ashton Jeanty: Believed to be nursing low-ankle sprain
Tuesday, August 25, 2026 9:23 AM
The Raiders are optimistic that the injury Jeanty sustained during practice Sunday is a "more low than high" ankle sprain and not considered a long-term concern, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
While the Raiders are wholly confident that Jeanty avoided a season-ending injury after he was unable to put weight on his right leg while leaving the field Sunday, the second-year running back is still in danger of missing the team's Week 1 game against the Dolphins, according to Rapoport. Jeanty will at the very least sit out Thursday's preseason finale versus the 49ers, and his status for the start of the regular season will be determined by his practice activity (or lack thereof) over the next two weeks. Rookie Mike Washington would be in line to serve as the Raiders' feature back if Jeanty ends up sitting out Week 1.

Josh Allen: Will sit Thursday night
Tuesday, August 25, 2026 8:31 AM
Allen will not play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Steelers, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
It comes as no surprise that Allen will be held out, as the Bills will ensure their starting quarterback -- and the consensus top quarterback in fantasy football -- does not take any further hits before the regular season gets underway.

Ja'Quinden Jackson: Waived/injured by Philly
Monday, August 24, 2026 9:17 PM
Jackson (undisclosed) was waived/injured by the Eagles on Monday.
The running back suffered an injury that forced to play to be stopped for several minutes after the opening kickoff of Philadelphia's preseason game with New England on Saturday. Jackson left the field in an ambulance and had to be taken to a local hospital, but his CT scans came back negative. His status remains unclear, but if he can get healthy enough to play, he will need to reach an injury settlement with Philadelphia to have a chance to see the field in 2026.

Kirk Cousins: Listed atop depth chart
Monday, August 24, 2026 8:47 PM
Cousins is listed as the Raiders' top quarterback on the unofficial depth chart for Thursday's preseason game versus the 49ers, according to the team's official site.
With coach Klint Kubiak recently declining to formally name a starter, this depth-chart placement offers another sign that Cousins remains the leading option atop Las Vegas' quarterback room. Fernando Mendoza and Aidan O'Connell, in that order, appear to remain behind Cousins heading into the Raiders' final preseason contest. It's unclear if Cousins will see any action in that game.

Brevin Jordan: Sidelined at practice
Monday, August 24, 2026 8:47 PM
Jordan (knee) did not participate at Monday's training camp practice, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Jordan suffered a knee injury in early August, and he isn't quite back to full health yet. The tight end hasn't appeared in a contest yet this preseason, and it's possible that the knee injury will force him to miss Houston's preseason finale against the Panthers on Friday.

Sam Scott: Moved to injured reserve
Monday, August 24, 2026 8:46 PM
Scott (undisclosed) reverted to the Jets' injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Scott was waived with an injury designation Sunday and did not get claimed by another team. As such, Scott has moved to the Jets' IR and will be required to sit for the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached.

Caullin Lacy: Reverts to IR
Monday, August 24, 2026 8:39 PM
Lacy (undisclosed) reverted to the Jets' injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Lacy was not claimed by another team after being waived/injured by the Jets on Sunday. The move to IR means he'll be forced to miss the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached.

Jawhar Jordan: Misses practice Monday
Monday, August 24, 2026 8:37 PM
Jordan (hip) did not participate at practice Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Jordan suffered a hip flexor strain at practice in early August, and he still appears to be less than 100 percent. Fellow running back British Brooks (hand) returned to practice Monday after missing three weeks following hand surgery, and the two players are battling to secure a spot on Houston's initial 53-man roster as reserve options behind Woody Marks and David Montgomery.
