Avery Moss: Heads back to waivers
The Dolphins waived Moss on Tuesday.
The Dolphins brought back Moss Thursday after cutting him in July, and he was only around for a few practices before heading back to waivers. The 25-year-old defensive end posted 25 tackles (11 solo) over 11 games in 2019, and he doesn't have much time to secure a depth role elsewhere.

Avery Moss: Surprise cut before camp
Moss was let go by the Dolphins on Sunday.
This news is a bit surprising, especially considering Moss logged 353 defensive snaps last season to go along with 25 tackles (11 solo) and one forced fumble across 11 regular-season games. Moss' departure opens the door for Zach Sieler and Jason Strowbridge to have an increased snap count heading into the 2020 season.

Dolphins' Avery Moss: Evaluated for head injury
Moss is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Redskins while he gets evaluated for a concussion.
This is certainly tough news for Moss, especially any time the possibility of a concussion is introduced. He'll need to be cleared by an independent neurologist before returning to the field, but as long as he's out, Taco Charlton would be in line for an increase in snaps.

Dolphins' Avery Moss: Claimed off waivers
The Dolphins claimed Moss off waivers Sunday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
Moss originally missed out on a 53-man roster spot with the Giants, but found a new team before too long. The 2017 fifth-round pick brings NFL experience to the Dolphins, racking up 14 tackles and one forced fumble in 11 games last season. With the team firmly in a rebuilding year, it's not a stretch to think Moss could see his fair share of reps on the defensive line for 2019.

Giants' Avery Moss: Recovered from offseason surgery
Moss recovered from surgery on his torn labrum and is healthy to begin training camp, Ryan Dunleavy of NJ.com reports.
Moss filled a situational role as a rookie last season, logging 14 tackles (10 solo), two pass breakups and one forced fumble through 11 games. He'll continue to man that spot, as the Giants could certainly use his contributions in pass defense. However, Moss likely won't get enough snaps behind Olivier Vernon and Connor Barwin to achieve IDP relevance.

Giants' Avery Moss: Cleared to play Sunday
Moss (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
The rookie has been limited to just six special teams snaps through the Giants' first four games, but his availability isn't insignificant with starting defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) unavailable. Even so, Kerry Wynn is in line to start in Vernon's stead, so Moss is just expected to act as insurance along the defensive line and probably won't be in store for a significant workload.
