Today’s minor moves:
Detroit Lions
- Waived: DL Quinton Jefferson, CB Nick Whiteside
New England Patriots
- Signed from Browns practice squad: OT Thayer Munford
- Placed on IR: CB Alex Austin
New Orleans Saints
- Activated from IR: OT Barry Wesley
- Signed from practice squad: RB Evan Hull
Seattle Seahawks
- Waived: CB Derion Kendrick
In addition to waiving cornerback Arthur Maulet, the Lions also moved on from defensive lineman Quinton Jefferson and cornerback Nick Whiteside. According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, these moves were likely made in anticipation of upcoming activations from IR and PUP.
The Patriots started preparing for Will Campbell and Jared Wilson‘s absences by adding some experienced offensive line depth, as the team snagged Thayer Munford off the Browns practice squad today. The former seventh-round pick was mostly a part-time starter during his three seasons with the Raiders, although he did start a career-high 10 games for the organization in 2023.
