Cardinals waive RB Trey Benson

Aug 24, 2026

The Arizona Cardinals have activated linebacker Josh Sweat off the Physically Unable to Perform list and waived injured running back Trey Benson.

Fantasy Impact:

If Benson clears waivers he will revert to the teams IR list. The writing was on the wall for someone in the Arizona backfield after the team signed Allgeier and drafted Love this past spring. Benson could land somewhere else but he's still dealing with a knee injury that cost him his 2025 season.

Falcon QBs Tua Tagovailoa, Michael Penix to split first team reps

Pro Football Talk

48 minutes ago

After being cleared for all football activities, Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. is set to truly enter Atlanta’s quarterback competition.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters on Monday that Penix and Tua Tagovailoa will split reps with the first-team offense on Monday.

Fantasy Impact:

Tua hasn't run away with this QB competition despite Penix not being able to fully compete, recovering from a torn ACL. Given the timeframe, it seems unlikely Penix wins the starting job at this point. However, if Tua continues to have his struggles, it's not out of the question we see Penix at some point this season. The story did say Penix could get time in the team's final preseason game against the Dolphins so it may be worth keeping an eye on that.

The next step in Malik Nabers’ rehab: shedding the red no-contact jersey.

Fantasy Impact:

Great news for Nabers as he continues his quest to be ready for Week 1 against the Cowboys. Raanan mentioned that Nabers had three reps in 11-on-11 and three in 7-on-7 drills. He made a really nice catch when he went down and plucked a pass off the turf.

Texans trade for WR Kayshon Boutte

Trade! The Patriots are sending WR Kayshon Boutte to the Texans for safety Jaylen Reed and a draft pick.

Related players: Nico Collins, Jayden Higgins, Jaylin Noel, Tank Dell

Fantasy Impact:

The trade makes a lot of sense for both teams as Boutte was buried on the depth chart in New England when the Pats added Romeo Doubs and A.J. Brown. With Higgins lost for the season for the Texans with a torn ACL, and Dell coming back from a serious knee injury, Boutte could step right in as a deep threat option. Last year, Boutte had 33 receptions for 551 yards and six touchdowns. He should at least be on your fantasy radar.
