Every roster spot calls take
101–125 of 2,502
Kelvin Banks Jr. to land on the practice squad
there are a trio of tackles on the Saints practice squad that could be moved up should Banks be placed on injured reserve (which we are expecting to happen)
- PendingJared FeinbergRoster Spot Calls2026 season
Cody White — “officially signed to the active roster this week”
White spent time with Kubiak in Seattle last season, which means the transition could be smooth sailing when he is officially signed to the active roster this week.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 21, 2026 Tyler Loop to land on the practice squad
This week, with limited practice time and a long flight and Jake Moody no longer on the practice squad means nothing will happen, but if you think the kicker issue is resolved you much only be watching this kid kick in a dome.
Bryan Thomas — “active for the first time”
The Jaguars are also set to have undrafted defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr. active for the first time after he was a healthy scratch a week ago.
Trinidad Chambliss — “will be playing on Sundays next year”
there can be no doubt that Chambliss will be playing on Sundays next year.
Elijah Sarratt — “active next week”
I'd expect fourth-round rookie wide receiver Elijah Sarratt to be active next week.
Charlie Heck to land on the practice squad
both are more so practice squad options with experience who could be called upon in a pinch if necessary
Austin Deculus to land on the practice squad
both are more so practice squad options with experience who could be called upon in a pinch if necessary
Frank Gore Jr. — “activated for Sunday's game”
The Bills will presumably decide to activate both players for Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.
Greg Dortch — “activated for Sunday's game”
The Bills will presumably decide to activate both players for Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.
Israel Abanikanda to land on the practice squad
Dallas has Israel Abanikanda on the practice squad, and he will likely get a call-up for Sunday's game.
Greg Dortch to land on the practice squad
In all likelihood, the Bills will call up Greg Dortch from the practice squad to handle punt return duties.
Shaq Thompson to land on the practice squad
While the veteran linebacker was signed to the practice squad, it's just a matter of time until he gets moved to the active roster.
Tom Kennedy to land on the practice squad
the lines are gonna elevate Tom Kennedy from the practice squad to be their punt returner
Braxton Berrios — “added to the roster to handle kickoff and punt returns”
However, they expect to add a fifth (Braxton Berrios) to the roster to handle kickoff and punt returns.
Malik Nabers — “active in Week 1”
Early signals point towards Nabers being active in Week 1.
Mitchell Fraboni to land on the practice squad
it tells us that we know that Mitchell for Boney is going to be one of the activations for game day against Kansas City here specifically
Adam Prentice to land on the practice squad
you have to figure that Adam Prentice is probably gonna be the other call up
Nick Leverett to land on the practice squad
Leverett returned to the practice squad and should be elevated for Week 1. The Cowboys could then add Leverett to the active roster
Tyler Smith — “will begin the season on the IR, back around midseason”
Smith will be out 4-6 weeks, meaning he will begin the season on the IR. The timing isn't ideal with the first game of the year less than one week away, but the good news is that Smith will be back around midseason.
Caelen Carson to make the roster
Many have noted that former Wake Forest CB Caelen Carson is likely the 53rd man on the Dallas roster, meaning he is the weakest link/most likely to be replaced at some point this season.
Lucky Jackson to land on the practice squad
Practice squad: Tom Kennedy, Lucky Jackson, Dominic Lovett.
Elijah Klein to land on the practice squad
Practice squad: Elijah Klein, Mason Miller.
Dominic Lovett to land on the practice squad
Practice squad: Tom Kennedy, Lucky Jackson, Dominic Lovett.
Tom Kennedy to land on the practice squad
Practice squad: Tom Kennedy, Lucky Jackson, Dominic Lovett.
