Lauter was waived by the Raiders on Saturday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Lauter joined the Raiders as an undrafted free agent Thursday and was let go just two days later. He had a productive collegiate career at Boise State, so he could get another chance around the league.

Mahomes (knee) is expected to participate in Kansas City's OTAs, beginning May 26, Nate Taylor of ESPN reports.

Mahomes was present for the team's voluntary workouts in April but was still limited solely to rehabbing his surgically repaired ACL and LCL. He'll now progress to the next step in his rehab, as he'll participate in at least some capacity with his teammates during the team's voluntary offseason workouts. While that's a positive step, coach Andy Reid did acknowledge that Mahomes will remain limited. Both Mahomes and the Chiefs continue to publicly state that the goal is for Mahomes to be ready to suit up in Week 1.

Tomczak signed with the Bills as an undrafted free agent on April 25, Ryan Talbot of Syracuse.com reports.

Tomczak set a number of records at Youngstown State during his collegiate career, racking up 225 receptions and at least one catch in 46 consecutive games. He'll have to prove he can reliably separate from coverage as a pro, but he's worth noting due to his strong collegiate production.

Geers signed with the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

Geers played his entire collegiate career with Minnesota and recorded a total of 58 receptions for 518 yards and nine touchdowns. He improved his blocking skills throughout college and is considered a reliable pass catcher, making it possible that he'll compete for a roster spot during training camp.

Njoku will visit the Chargers on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Njoku entered free agency after the Browns cut the veteran tight end in mid-March. He has yet to catch on with another team, but that could change following his visit with the Chargers. Oronde Gadsden emerged as the Chargers' top tight end last season and the team inked Charlie Kolar to a three-year deal in early March, but adding Njoku would give the Bolts another playmaking pass catcher that Justin Herbert could rely on in the passing game. Njoku has struggled with injuries over the past couple of seasons but has been productive when on the field. He finished the 2025 regular season with 33 catches (on 48 targets) for 293 yards and four touchdowns across 12 games.

Seattle signed Wentz as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Wentz began his collegiate career with Old Dominion before transferring to Kansas. As a senior with the Jayhawks, he tallied 16 catches for 258 yards and two touchdowns. Wentz is 6-foot-2, 205 pounds and is a former defensive back who plays with plenty of physicality. He may need some time to further develop as a wideout, making him a longshot to open the season on Seattle's NFL roster.

Mason signed with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Mason is coming off a senior season with Wisconsin during which he caught 30 passes for 398 yards and four touchdowns. Prior to that, he spent his first three campaigns at Missouri State. Mason is 6-foot-3 with reliable hands, but he isn't particularly quick or agile. Seattle's tight-end corps is led by AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo, and Mason may be headed for a spot on the practice squad.

The Seahawks signed Briscoe as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Briscoe ended his collegiate career with Cal Poly by reeling in 43 passes for 779 yards and seven touchdowns. He stands 6-foot-2 and has demonstrated good linear speed for a wideout. Briscoe is a longshot to make Seattle's initial NFL roster but could be given a chance to develop on the practice squad.

The Chiefs signed Smith as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Smith played four years at Stanford before transferring to Texas A&M for his final two seasons. The running back participated in 24 games for the Aggies, collecting 98 rush attempts for 412 yards and four touchdowns over the span. The Chiefs' offseason signing of Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker means they're set atop the depth chart, and Smith will therefore have to fight with multiple other options in training camp to try and garner a roster spot come final cuts.

The Chiefs signed Ott as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Ott played three years at California before transferring to Oklahoma for his senior season. The running back suffered a shoulder issue entering the 2025 season that led to him seeing meaningful snaps in only two games. The Chiefs are likely taking a flyer on Ott due to his 2023 season at California, where he rushed 245 times for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns and added 26 receptions for 321 yards and three touchdowns. Ott's standout sophomore campaign suggests he has a shot to be a meaningful producer at the NFL level if he can avoid the injury bug.
