    Patriots acquired S Jaylen Reed from the Patriots in exchange for WR Kayshon Boutte.

    The Patriots also received a 2028 seventh-round pick in the deal. While Boutte gets a chance to earn a role with the Texans following the loss of Jayden Higgins, Reed will likely serve as added depth for the Patriots secondary. Reed appeared in seven games last year as a rookie while making one start, with most of his snaps coming on special teams.

    They needed the roster spot ahead of tonight’s Wild Card playoff game against the Steelers, as they’re activating S Jaylen Reed from injured reserve. Taylor played just 35 snaps for the Texans in 2025 and has been a moderate disappointment. If the Texans survive the night, it’s possible he’s brought back on the practice squad.
  • HOU Safety #23
    Per NBC Sports Houston’s Aaron Wilson, Reed “practiced for the first time since aggravating a forearm injury against the Indianapolis Colts and undergoing surgery.” Reed was placed on injured reserve, post-op, and he notably began the year on the reserve/physically unable to perform list due to a knee injury.
  • HOU Safety #23
    Definitely feels like a broken forearm for Reed, who had been starting at safety of late. He’ll probably be sent to injured reserve if that is indeed what happened here. He was hurt tackling Jonathan Taylor in the second quarter. Myles Bryant took over at safety.
  • HOU Safety
    Reed (6’/211) possesses the requisite frame and speed to be an NFL enforcer on the back end, but his aggressive playing style also leads to volatile results. Last year, Reed banked top-12 positional Power Five sums across the full college season in solo tackles (74), stops (27), TFLs (five), interceptions (three) and, unfortunately, missed tackles (16). If Reed can cut down on the negatives, he has a chance to win a rotational role. For now, he is likely to begin his career on special teams if he makes the Texans’ 53-man roster.
  • NE Safety #23
    Reed (6'0/213) was a four-star recruit out of Detroit, Michigan and was regarded as the 10th best safety and the eighth overall 2021 prospect from Michigan. He has appeared in four games for the Nittany Lions this after suiting up for last week’s matchup against Maryland. A fifth game played this season would disqualify Reed from receiving a redshirt this season, and head coach James Franklin has shared that the team does not intend to use a redshirt on Reed at this point. Franklin said on Monday that the team plans to use Reed and that he is ready to play.

  • NE Safety #23
    Reed (6'0/190) hails from Detroit, MI ranking as the 10th best safety and 8th overall 2021 prospect from the state of Michigan. Reed has been hotly pursued across the mid-west, receiving offers from Cincinnati, Central Michigan, Indiana, Iowa State, Kansas and Michigan State. He ended up receiving 32 scholarship in total but ultimately felt Happy Valley was where he belongs. Reed is Penn State’s second four-star signee and fourth 2021 signee overall for the Nittany Lions.

  • NE Safety #23
    Reed (6'0/190) had originally announced that he’d make his choice on May 10, but he’s moving the decision up a month. He’s believed to be deciding between Georgia, Penn State, Michigan State, and USC; but the Nittany Lions are considered a prohibitive favorite to land Reed’s services.

  • NE Safety #23
    Reed (6'0/190) was looking to take some official visits before making his pledge, but with the coronavirus pandemic putting a hold on face-to-face recruiting at this juncture, the four-star safety had to adjust his plans. He did manage to take relatively recent pair of unofficial visits before everything shut down, with both Michigan State and Penn State drawing trips this calendar year. Georgia, USC, Minnesota and Oregon are among the other programs who have offered to the Detroit native. On the 247Sports composite board, Reed lands as the No. 237 overall prospect in the 2021 class.

    Chargers OC Mike McDaniel said the offense “sustained a mild setback” with RB Keaton Mitchell.

    This comes on the heels of a missed session on Sunday for the fourth-year back. The team has yet to release a complete injury update for Mitchell after failing to disclose an injury status the previous day, leaving fantasy managers stuck in limbo with less than three weeks until the start of the regular season. “We sustained a mild setback with Keaton, but realistically, that’s a position that you’re always wanting to have three, and I like what our young guys are doing to press into that group,” McDaniel said Monday. It is difficult to read too far into McDaniel’s remarks without further context, keeping Mitchell a strong streaming option in shallow leagues, for the time being.

    Rams HC Sean McVay said he remains undecided on who Matthew Stafford’s backup will be to start the season.

    Rookie Ty Simpson and 2023 fourth-rounder Stetson Bennett have both turned in solid performances in the team’s first two preseason games. Bennett drew the start in the first preseason game and has thrown for 219 scoreless yards on 37 attempts, while Simpson has thrown for 263-2-0, also on 37 attempts. McVay has already said that Simpson will “definitely” play in the team’s preseason finale against the Chargers, but didn’t commit to Bennett seeing snaps as well.

    Saints RB Kendre Miller said he expects to see a bigger role this season with Alvin Kamara (knee) sidelined.

    Miller is entering his fourth season as a pro and his second season in head coach Kellen Moore’s offense. He’s been slowed by injuries ever since entering the league as a third-round pick in 2023, and he rushed 47 times for 193 yards and one touchdown last season, while adding another 5-30-0 through the air on five targets. Kamara is expected to be out for about a month, so it’s possible he avoids IR to start the season. If Kamara were to land on IR and miss at least the first four games, Miller could be worth a stash in deeper leagues while we wait to see how his usage plays out alongside Travis Etienne, but he is unlikely to have any real standalone value.

    Jets HC Aaron Glenn said Breece Hall (groin) is on track to play in Week 1 against the Titans.

    This comes a few hours after it was reported that Hall was “moving well” while participating in agility drills on the sideline. Hall suffered a groin injury last week and is expected to miss two or three weeks, but a return in time for Week 1 was always in the cards. Hall is one of several players Glenn is hoping to have back in time for Week 1. He also said he expects TE Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) and CB D’Angelo Ponds (calf) to be ready for Week 1. Hall is in the mix as a fringe RB1/RB2 this season and is expected to handle another heavy workload in his fifth season.

    Broncos HC Sean Payton said the injury Riley Moss suffered in Friday’s preseason game is not considered serious.

    Moss exited Friday’s game with an apparent rib injury, but Payton said the team is choosing to make the smart decision by not practicing him. Moss totaled 57 tackles and one interception last season and has started all 31 games he has appeared in since 2024.

    Cardinals activated EDGE Josh Sweat from the active/PUP list.

    Sweat wasn’t happy with the Cardinals this offseason and chose to stay away from the team during mandatory minicamp and OTAs. Now that he’s been activated from the PUP list, he’ll have roughly three weeks to get up to speed with the team and new coaching staff. Sweat 30 tackles and 12 sacks last season while also forcing four fumbles and remains one of the top pass rushers in the league when healthy.

    Cardinals waived RB Trey Benson (knee).

    The Cardinals waived/injured Benson, meaning he would revert to the team’s injured reserve list if he were to clear waivers. The third-year pro has been slowed by the same knee injury that ended his 2025 season and was already a cut candidate after the Cardinals signed Tyler Allgeier to a deal this offseason and drafted Jeremiyah Love. Benson has rush 92 times for 451 yards and one touchdown in his career while serving primarily as James Conner’s backup.
