The Patriots waived Lang on Monday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Lang bounced between the Seahawks and Patriots practice squads throughout his rookie year as an undrafted free agent. The tight end was not elevated to the active roster by either team throughout the year and is still waiting to suit up for his first NFL game. Lang will now be subjected to the waiver process, and if he clears the 24-hour span without being claimed, he will become a free agent. Lang may once again reunite with the Seahawks ahead of training camp if he is not claimed by another team.

The 49ers signed Dinkins as an undrafted free agent Sunday.

Dinkins caught 37 passes for 399 yards and seven touchdowns across his four seasons at Penn State. With George Kittle (Achilles) and Jake Tonges (foot) both dealing with injuries, Dinkins has a chance to make the team's final roster.

The Jaguars signed Connor as an undrafted free agent Sunday.

Connor played three collegiate seasons at Troy, producing 31 receptions for 397 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns over 11 games in his final season. The tight end comes in at 6-foot-4 and 245 pounds, making him smaller than the other depth-level tight ends currently on the Jaguars' roster. With marginal receiving upside and a smaller frame, it will likely be difficult for Connor to work his way up the depth chart and would take an exceptional showing at the team's camp for him to be considered for the 53-man roster.

The Chargers signed Svoboda as an undrafted free agent Saturday.

Svoboda was originally a quarterback at Wyoming before switching over to tight end in 2025. He caught 11 passes for 92 yards and a touchdown during the 2025 campaign. Svoboda was one of two tight ends the team added as undrafted free agents alongside Jerand Bradley.

Villari is slated to sign with the Rams as an undrafted free agent, Tom Rock of Newsday reports.

Villari is a unique and intriguing prospect, as he worked as a pass catcher, runner and quarterback during his college tenure, with his last four seasons spent with Syracuse. As a senior, he recorded 39 catches for 412 yards and rushed 17 times for 55 yards and a touchdown. He hasn't seen work as a quarterback since 2023, when he completed 23 of 33 passes for 177 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions for the Orange, so his path to an NFL roster spot is likely as a tight end.

Trigg is slated to sign with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Trigg spent his final two collegiate seasons with Baylor and is coming off his best campaign, recording 50 catches for 694 yards and six touchdowns in 2025. Dallas features Jake Ferguson at tight end, and Brevyn Spann-Ford provides steady run blocking as Ferguson's backup, so Trigg may need to prove himself on the practice squad before getting a look on the active roster.

Wright is slated to sign with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Wright logged 1,029 receiving yards and nine receiving touchdowns over two seasons with Ole Miss, claiming the No. 2 spot in program history for career tight end yardage. The 22-year-old was a consistent producer of splash plays, with 12 catches of 20-plus yards in 2025. He has exceptional contact balance as well as an expansive catch radius beyond what his frame would typically allow. Wright's toughness also isn't in question after the tight end played through the entire 2025 season with an injured right shoulder that he suffered in the season opener. His greatest weaknesses are a lackluster frame for blocking and inconsistent playing weight. The tape Wright has displayed portrays him as a strong tight end prospect that can take advantage of mismatches, something the Eagles could utilize in a depth role behind Dallas Goedert. Wright's camp production will likely be heavily weighed against Grant Calcaterra's and Eli Stowers' to determine if Wright is at the NFL level.

Gyllenborg is slated to sign with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Gyllenborg is fast for a tight end, posting a 4.6-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine despite his 6-foot-5, 249-pound frame. The Wyoming graduate started 19 games over three years, totaling 1,002 yards and seven receiving touchdowns from 2023 to 2025. He has a knack for identifying and settling down in zones and has the speed to threaten defenses down the field. The 23-year-old's biggest flaws revolve around his inability to box out defenders on 50/50 balls and a tendency to jump unnecessarily at the catch point. The Wyoming staff says Gyllenborg is a breeze to coach, so the Chiefs should have some luck fixing the issues that have hindered him as a pass catcher. They will also need to work on elevating the tight end's abilities as an inline blocker, but with proper improvement, Gyllenborg could work his way up the depth chart by the end of camp.

McRee is slated to sign with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.

The biggest red flag McRee has is his injury profile, and it's likely why he is an undrafted free agent instead of a Day 3 pick. McRee suffered a torn ACL in his left knee in 2019 and a torn ACL in his right knee in 2023, and he missed an additional three games in September 2024 due to a sprained left knee. The 23-year-old amassed 450 yards and four receiving touchdowns over 12 games as a starter for USC in 2025. McRee possesses a flexible catch radius and limits drops while also being able to finish through contact. He is a strong and aggressive blocker who can sustain his blocks on the move, but his toughness and aggression can lead him to injury. If the young player can be protected from himself and stay healthy, the Steelers could have an additional roster-level tight end heading into 2026.

Rogers agreed to a deal Saturday with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Rogers worked his way up the TCU depth chart over his five-year college career, earning himself a starting role for the Horned Frogs in the 2025 season. The 24-year-old tight end played 54.4 percent of his snaps inline for TCU's spread scheme and logged 34 catches for 319 yards and two touchdowns on 41 targets over 13 games. Rogers has a massive wingspan (82 and 1/4 inches), finishes catches well and moves very well with his 258-pound body. The tight end is a promising physical prospect, but his low-level elusiveness and lack of starts at the college level put him behind his peers in versatility, knowledge and experience.
