Minor NFL Transactions: 8/8/25

August 8, 2025 by Pro Football Rumors

Friday’s minor moves around the NFL:

Buffalo Bills

  • Signed: K Caden Davis
  • Released: WR Kelly Akharaiyi
  • Released from IR via injury settlement: DE Hayden Harris

Dallas Cowboys

  • Signed: RB Malik Davis
  • Claimed off waivers (from Steelers): G Nick Broeker
  • Placed on IR: G Robert Jones (story), OL Dakoda Shepley 

Indianapolis Colts

  • Signed: Marcellus Johnson, CB BJ Mayes, RB  Nate Noel, RB Nay’Quan Wright
  • Released: CB Tre Herndon
  • Waived (with injury designation): LB Liam Anderson
  • Placed on IR: RB Salvon Ahmed, CB Justin Walley (story)

Kansas City Chiefs

  • Released from IR via injury settlement: CB Darius Rush

San Francisco 49ers

  • Signed: QB Tanner Mordecai
  • Placed on IR: WR Equanimeous St. Brown

Tampa Bay Buccaneers 

  • Released from IR via injury settlement: S Marcus Banks

Bills kicker Tyler Bass is currently dealing with pelvic area soreness, ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg notes. As a result, the team recently worked out a number of free agents to handle kicking duties during tomorrow’s preseason game. Davis – an undrafted rookie – was recently waived by the Jets, but he will get at least one opportunity to audition for a roster spot.

Ahmed was recently taken down in a Colts practice by a hip-drop tackle. As a result, ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Stephen Holder report the veteran suffered an ankle injury. Ahmed’s attention will turn to rehabbing the ailment; unless he is released by way of an injury settlement, he will not play in 2025.
