Minor NFL Transactions: 12/27/25

December 27, 2025 by Pro Football Rumors

Here are today’s minor moves and standard gameday practice squad elevations for the penultimate weekend of the regular season:

Baltimore Ravens

  • Activated from IR: LB Jay Higgins IV

Buffalo Bills

  • Signed from practice squad: TE Keleki Latu
  • Elevated: K Michael Badgley, DE Andre Jones Jr.
  • Waived: WR Mecole Hardman Jr.

Chicago Bears

  • Activated from IR: G Luke Newman
  • Elevated: CB Dallis Flowers, WR JP Richardson
  • Waived: DT Jonathan Ford

Cincinnati Bengals

  • Elevated: DT Howard Cross III, CB Bralyn Lux

Cleveland Browns

  • Elevated: TE Sal Cannella, QB Bailey Zappe

Green Bay Packers

  • Elevated: TE Drake Dabney, QB Clayton Tune

Indianapolis Colts

  • Activated from IR: WR Ashton Dulin
  • Signed from practice squad: DT Chris Wormley
  • Elevated: C Jimmy Morrissey, G Josh Sills
  • Placed on IR: WR Anthony Gould, TE Andrew Ogletree

Jacksonville Jaguars

  • Elevated: G Jerome Carvin, S Juan Thornhill

New Orleans Saints

  • Elevated: WR Ronnie Bell, TE Treyton Welch

New York Giants

  • Signed from practice squad: DE Elijah Chatman, C Bryan Hudson, S Raheem Layne, K Ben Sauls
  • Elevated: TE Zach Davidson, RE Dante Miller

New York Jets

  • Signed from practice squad: CB Tre Brown, G Marquis Hayes, WR Quentin Skinner
  • Elevated: QB Hendon Hooker

Philadelphia Eagles

  • Elevated: CB Brandon Johnson

Pittsburgh Steelers

  • Elevated: T Jack Driscoll, CB D’Shawn Jamison

San Francisco 49ers

  • Elevated: LB Eric Kendricks, TE Brayden Willis

Seattle Seahawks

  • Elevated: RB Cam Akers, T Amari Kight

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Elevated: OLB Jason Pierre-Paul

Tennessee Titans

  • Elevated: CB Kemon Hall
  • Placed on IR: CB Marcus Harris

With Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox both dealing with injuries, the Bills add Latu to the 53-man roster for depth. To make room, Buffalo has parted ways with the veteran, Hardman, just a week after activating him from injured reserve.

A number of players are being called up as standard gameday practice squad elevations for the third and final time on their current contracts. This is the case for Flowers in Chicago, Zappe in Cleveland, Sills in Indianapolis, Driscoll in Pittsburgh, and Kight in Seattle. If their respective teams wish to see them appear in another game this year, they will need to be signed to the 53-man roster, as was done with Wormley in Indianapolis and Chatman in New York this week after they exhausted their three elevations already this year.
