  • Elevated: LB Sione Takitaki

New York Giants

  • DT Elijah Chatman, K Ben Sauls

New York Jets

  • Elevated: DB Tre Brown

New Orleans Saints

  • Elevated: T Easton Kilty, TE Moliki Matavao

Pittsburgh Steelers

  • Elevated: CB Daryl Porter Jr., T Jack Driscoll

San Francisco 49ers

  • Placed on IR: LB Nick Martin

Tennessee Titans

  • Signed from practice squad: DT Cam Horsley
  • Waived: DT Shy Tuttle
  • Elevated: CB Kamon Hall

Agnew’s time in Atlanta has come to an end after 11 appearances with his third career team. The veteran did not see any usage on offense, but he handled 45 total returns between kickoffs and punts this season. Agnew totaled 855 yards in that capacity, but he will now hit the waiver wire. Provided he clears, the 30-year-old will become a free agent.

The same is true of Tuttle. A veteran of 105 games, he has made just one start so far this season. Tuttle has only handled a 25% snap share on defense, so he is unlikely to generate much interest as a free agent. Nevertheless, a depth role could await him on a contender down the stretch.
