Minor NFL Transactions: 8/12/25

August 12, 2025 by Pro Football Rumors

Here are the latest minor moves from around the league:

Arizona Cardinals

  • Signed: WR Kelly Akharaiyi
  • Placed on IR: WR Trishton Jackson
  • Awarded via waivers: OL Roy Mbaeteka

Buffalo Bills

  • Signed: S Tre Herndon
  • Released: TE Matt Sokol

  • Waived/injured: S Major Burns
  • Placed on IR: CB Shaun Wade
  • Signed: S Millard Bradford, CB Mekhi Garner, CB Kaleb Hayes, S Mark Perry

Cleveland Browns

  • Signed: DE Titus Leo
  • Waived: WR Chase Cota

Denver Broncos

  • Activated from active/PUP list: WR A.T. Perry

Green Bay Packers

  • Awarded via waivers: WR Kawaan Baker
  • Signed: RB Tyrion Davis-Price

Houston Texans

  • Signed: OT Conor McDermott

Minnesota Vikings

  • Waived: LB Brian Asamoah
  • Waived/injured: C Zeke Correll

New England Patriots

  • Signed: RB Shane Watts
  • Waived/injured: RB Deneric Prince

Philadelphia Eagles

  • Signed: DT Justin Rogers
  • Waived: LS Christian Johnstone

Seattle Seahawks

  • Signed: LB Alphonzo Tuputala

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Waived: K Ryan Coe
  • Waived/injured: QB Michael Pratt

Tennessee Titans

  • Signed: LB Khaleke Hudson
  • Waived: LB David Gbenda
  • Waived/injured: Anfernee Orji

Mbaeteka was waived by the Browns on Monday and quickly found a new home in Arizona. The Nigeria native has an international player exemption, per Howard Balzer of CardsWire, allowing the Cardinals to carry 91 players on their preseason roster. The exemption also makes Mbaeteka eligible to be an extra 17th player on the team’s practice squad.

Herndon, 29, will add some defensive back depth to Buffalo’s secondary. Interestingly, the Bills listed Herndon as a safety when they announced his signing, though the seven-year veteran has primarily played both outside and slot cornerback throughout his career.

Price, a 49ers third-round pick in 2022, has only played 105 total snaps in his first three NFL seasons. In Green Bay, he’ll fight for a roster spot in the Packers’ backfield behind Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson, and MarShawn Lloyd.

Asamoah’s release by the Vikings was a bit of a surprise given that the 2022 third-rounder has appeared in 46 games over the last three seasons, primarily as a core special teams contributor. However, he had yet to develop into a reliable defender in Brian Flores‘ scheme and will look to compete for a role elsewhere.

Johnstone’s release signals that offseason signing Charley Hughlett will be the Eagles’ long snapper for the 2025 season.
