Pro Football Rumors
Here are Wednesday’s minor moves and some standard gameday practice squad elevations for the annual Thanksgiving slate of games:
Arizona Cardinals
Cincinnati Bengals
Dallas Cowboys
Green Bay Packers
Kansas City Chiefs
New England Patriots
Philadelphia Eagles
Seattle Seahawks
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Green Bay’s regular kicker Brandon McManus was off the injury report with three full practices this week, so Havrisik will take his leave after filling in for three games this year. The team had been keeping Havrisik close even during McManus’ healthy stretches, but after the backup missed two extra point attempts at MetLife this weekend, the Packers relinquished him to the waiver wire.
Jones missed most of his rookie campaign due to a knee injury, and the same has been true of his sophomore season. This time, though, he’s coming back with a bit more time left in the season.
O’Connell had already been called up as a gameday elevation three times this year, so if Seattle wanted to see him on the field again, this move was necessary. In his most recent elevation, O’Connell was asked to play a much bigger role, staying in for over half the team’s defensive snaps. In his first extended opportunity, O’Connell finished second on the team with nine tackles and even logged his first career sack.
