NFL Minor Transactions: 8/20/25

August 21, 2025 by Pro Football Rumors

Here are today’s midweek minor moves:

Arizona Cardinals

  • Signed: C Dohnovan West
  • Waived: WR Kelly Akharaiyi

Buffalo Bills

  • Signed: CB Zy Alexander, RB Elijah Young, G Rush Reimer
  • Reverted to IR: CB Te’Cory Couch, WR Kaden Prather
  • Waived (with injury designation): RB Jarveon Howard
  • Waived: K Caden Davis

Chicago Bears

  • Signed: RB Royce Freeman
  • Placed on IR: RB Deion Hankins

Denver Broncos

  • Signed: DT Michael Dwumfour
  • Waived: LB JB Brown

Houston Texans

  • Signed: LS Blake Ferguson
  • Reverted to IR: WR Xavier Johnson
  • Released: TE Tre’ McKitty

Jacksonville Jaguars

  • Signed: WR Darius Lassiter
  • Waived (with injury designation): WR Joshua Cephus

Los Angeles Rams

  • Signed: T John Leglue, OL Mike McAllister
  • Reverted to IR: WR Mario Williams

Miami Dolphins

  • Activated off active/PUP: TE Darren Waller

Philadelphia Eagles

  • Signed: LB Chance Campbell
  • Waived: WR Giles Jackson

Pittsburgh Steelers

  • Reverted to IR: T Gareth Warren
  • Waived (with injury settlement): LB Devin Harper

San Francisco 49ers

  • Signed: G Michael Dunn, WR Malik Knowles
  • Waived (with injury designation): RB Corey Kiner
  • Released: DE Demone Harris

Washington Commanders

  • Released (with injury designation): G Julian Good-Jones
  • Released (with injury settlement): CB Kevon Seymour

Waller will now be able to officially return to the field today as he attempts to shake off a year’s worth of retirement. Head coach Mike McDaniel expects him back at practice “very soon,” potentially even this week, per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.

The Bears have landed the services of the veteran Freeman as they deal with absences from D’Andre Swift, Roschon Johnson, Kyle Monangai, and Travis Homer. Hankins had gotten the starting nod in the team’s last preseason game for that same reason, and he’ll now hand off that role to Freeman.

Ferguson, the Dolphins’ former long snapper of the past five years, finally gets a job after his release from Miami. The Texans were really liking what they were seeing out of undrafted rookie Austin Brinkman, but a minor, short-team injury will keep him from the team’s final preseason game, requiring at least a short stay from Ferguson.
