Updated USFL to NFL List (post NFL cut to 53 active players)

Post by 4th&long »

With the NFL down to its 53 man active roster and at least initial Practice Squads set here's the latest:

14/51 on NFL teams

>>KaVontae Turpin, the reigning USFL MVP, kept his spot on the Dallas Cowboys after the final cuts this week.

It isn’t the end for those players cut as 13 of them have since signed on to NFL team’s practice squads in hopes of making the jump back onto the active roster. Former Birmingham Stallions Tae Hayes, DeMarquis Gates and USFL Championship Game MVP Victor Bolden Jr. have all been kept on in reserve roles with their respective NFL teams.

DT Dom Davis, Cincinnati Bengals
LB Tegray Scales, Cincinnati Bengals
DB Ike Brown, Las Vegas Raiders
WR Isaiah Zuber, Las Vegas Raiders
WR Maurice Alexander, Detroit Lions
DE TJ Carter, Los Angeles Rames
OT Alex Akingbulu, Washington Commanders
DT Jeremiah Pharms Jr., New England Patriots
DE Carlos Kemp, Los Angeles Chargers
WR Darius Shepherd, Denver Broncos <<

Sans injury I think Chris Odom makes this list - with that said just shy of 30% going to camp get signed... so far, could see drops and pick ups as injury bug takes hold.

Tino Ellis (USFL Panthers) > Dolphins & more

Post by 4th&long »

USFLnewshub latest:

https://usflnewshub.com/usfl-news/forme ... et-waived/

>> Tino Ellis was recently signed to the Dolphins Practice Squad, however Bailey Gaither and Maurice Alexander were both released from the Ravens and Lions respectively.
Currently the USFL have now 18 former players under NFL contract, with possibly more on the way. Most recently the Denver Broncos put Jacob Bobenmoyer on the IR and tried out six long snappers, three of which were recently in the USFL. While Gaither and Alexander have their NFL dreams on hold, for Ellis it’s another opportunity to prove himself that he belongs in the NFL.<<

As injuries mount, more signings come on and go with players recovering. But overall the injuries pile up as the long season continues...

I wouldn't mind the Hawks grabbing Mo, with DeeJay Dallas right now RB2 (til Tony Jones gets up to speed) I'd be using other guys on kick returns.
