The seven-year veteran has amassed 71 starts across 108 appearances for the 49ers, Titans, and Dolphins and could quickly find his way onto an NFL roster as a viable depth piece capable of playing all five positions along the offensive line. He provides precisely the profile typically lauded by the Kyle Shanahan-Sean McVay coaching trees, which requires plus football IQ along with the ability to understand how multiple positions work together up front.
The news was first reported by NFL Insider Aaron Wilson. Murchison was originally a fifth-round pick by the Titans in the 2020 NFL Draft. He appeared in 16 games with the Rams last year and had two sacks and three QB hits.
The undrafted free agent rookie led the NFL with four preseason sacks this year. He is a candidate to land on a practice squad somewhere, if not in Tampa Bay.
The contract comes fully guaranteed as Tucker gets the stability he was looking for this offseason after entering 2026 on a restricted free agent tender of $3.52 million. Tucker presumably sits third on the depth chart at running back for the Buccaneers after the addition of Kenny Gainwell, a situation he has grown accustomed to during his time in Tampa. The pay cut likely stands as a boost to starter Bucky Irving after numerous reports this offseason called for a potential three-way timeshare in the backfield, something that now appears less likely given current circumstances.
Scharping was signed earlier this month. He has not played much in recent years and tore and ACL in September 2025.
Miller signed with the Bears this offseason but failed to crack their 53-man roster as a depth option. With 93 career games under his belt and some experience on special teams, Miller should at least be able to land a practice squad gig in the coming days.
Isaac, who missed all of last season with an elbow injury, was late to return to practice this offsseaon. He played 32 defensive snaps in 2024. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Isaac is “expected to draw interest” from teams.
The former first-round pick is back on the market. Elam spent time on the Cowboys’ and Titans’ rosters last year after a three-year stint with the Bills. He has decent odds of landing with another team at age 25.
Stick struggled in four starts, all losses, with the Chargers in 2023 and hasn’t seen a regular season snap since. He was behind Riley Leonard and Anthony Richardson on the Colts’ depth chart before being released.
The Browns also reportedly want to keep rookie Taylen Green, and it’s hard to imagine them keeping four quarterbacks on the roster, so something has to give. Our money is on the Browns ultimately trading Gabriel for a late-round pick. Gabriel looked good in his final preseason outing, throwing for 186 yards and three scores. That alone might be enough for a team to give him a shot at a backup job this year.
The Jaguars drafted enough tight ends to push Long out of a job, but he’s generally been a pretty stellar blocking tight end over the course of his career. Long was once acquired in a deal involving Jalen Ramsey — this isn’t quite that, but he should stick on Arizona’s roster. He’s not particularly fantasy-relevant.
Having already traded Quinn Ewers to Jacksonville, Miami only has Malik Willis on the roster at quarterback. They will make a move for a backup at some point in the next day or two. Gronowski is expected to return on Miami’s practice squad if he clears waivers.
He’ll remain an emergency quarterback option for the team per Jeremy Fowler, which is a nice way of saying he’s not making the practice squad either. The 28-year-old former second-round pick will look for work elsewhere.
Williams had a strong camp and even played ahead of Sean Tucker in a preseason game, causing some reporters to speculate that he could make the team’s 53-man roster over Tucker. While he likely earned himself a spot on the team’s practice squad if he clears waivers, Tucker remains the team’s RB3 heading into the season.
The news was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The draft pick going to the Packers is a 2028 sixth-round pick. After trading Quinn Ewers to the Jaguars, the Dolphins acquired their new backup QB in McCord, who had an impressive preseason. The Dolphins new GM and HC came from Green Bay this offseason and so did both of the quarterbacks on their active roster in McCord and starter Malik Willis. McCord was a sixth-round pick by the Eagles in the 2025 NFL Draft and is yet to appear in a regular season game.
Bad backup quarterback play was a staple of camp reports for the Jaguars, so they dealt for Quinn Ewers yesterday and will now eat $3 million in guaranteed money to cut Mullens. Mullens will look to catch on elsewhere as the roster dust settles.
Johnson was signed before the Bengals knew they’d be getting Joe Flacco back, but with Flacco in the fold they’ve decided to move on from the 40-year-old. Johnson looked solid enough in the preseason to find a role elsewhere, hopefully on a team he hasn’t been on before for Immaculate Grid purposes.
Jackson was a sixth-round pick this year but failed to show enough in camp or the preseason to crack the team’s final roster. He also missed time during the offseason while recovering from core muscle surgery, hampering his development. He could return on the team’s practice squad if he clears waivers.
The news was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Buechele, 28, has been a backup for years, spending time with the Chiefs and Bills. He was beat out by Kyle Allen, who will serve as the Bills’ QB2 this season.
Tinsley was a big hit last preseason and had an 8/116/2 receiving line last year in his age-26 season. He’s likely done enough to catch on someone’s practice squad, and perhaps has an outside chance of latching on to a 53-man roster. 2026 fourth-round pick Colbie Young likely squeezed Tinsley out of a roster spot.
Second-round pick Jacob Rodriguez has won a starting linebacker job. The 28-year-old Dodson will look to catch on elsewhere.
The news was first reported by NFL Insider Jordan Schultz. Stone spent the last two seasons with the Bengals, starting all 34 games. In that time, he racked up six interceptions, 10 passes defended and 185 total tackles. Stone could wind up on the Bills practice squad, but will hit the open market first to pursue potential opportunities with other organizations.
Jalon Daniels won the backup job in Tampa Bay. Browning was pretty unimpressive in 2025 and didn’t win a job over a rookie UDFA — it may not be easy for him to find a roster spot elsewhere.
It was subsequently announced that Jake Browning has been released. A UDFA out of Kansas, Daniels impressed during training camp and the preseason. He completed 27-of-44 passes for 239 yards, one score, and no interceptions. Daniels also ran for a touchdown. With Baker Mayfield set to hit free agency after this year, Daniels could be worth stashing in Superflex dynasty leagues.
