Packers remake offense with three cutdown-day trades

Green Bay used cutdown day to overhaul its offense with three trades: quarterback McCord was sent to Miami for a 2028 sixth-round pick, a 2028 sixth-round pick was traded to Pittsburgh to land running back Kaleb Johnson, and a 2028 seventh-round pick went to the Rams for tight end Mark Redman, bolstering the backfield and tight end depth as the team shapes its offense behind Luke Musgrave’s injury and with Jonnu Smith and Tucker Kraft in the mix.

49ers Cutdown Day Grades: Surprises, Savvy Moves, and Tough Calls

The 49ers graded their 53-man roster decisions on cutdown day, weighing a savvy trade for Jarrett Patterson to bolster line depth, placing Mykel Williams on the PUP list, and designating Christian Kirk to IR with return. They kept three quarterbacks and an impressive undrafted rookie in James Thompson Jr., added Brayden Willis as a fourth tight end to cover Brock Purdy’s injury situation, and made a mix of controversial cuts (Sebastian Valdez, Ogbo Okoronkwo, Darrell Luter Jr.) while hoping to re-sign others on short-term deals.

49ers sharpen 53-man plan as cutdown weekend looms

San Francisco is trimming from 90 to 53 by Sunday, using IR return designations and release‑and‑re‑sign moves to keep preferred players. Piñeiro’s accuracy anchors the kicking game, the QB room appears to be Purdy/Jones/Rourke with Martinez as a practice‑squad option, and Guerendo could land on PUP to free a roster spot. The biggest open question is linebacker depth and how the 49ers balance IR/return designations with a crowded WR/TE/OL group as they head toward Week 1.
