Bankston was signed to the Packers' practice squad Tuesday.

Bankston will return to the practice squad with Green Bay after being released by the team Sept. 29. The running back has yet to be elevated to the active roster for a contest this season, and he could get his chance Week 5 against the Bears if Chris Brooks (ankle) is unavailable.

McMillan was signed to the Seahawks' practice squad Tuesday.

McMillan will replace fellow running back Jacardia Wright (foot) on the team's practice squad following Wright's placement on the practice squad injured list Tuesday. The team decided to sign McMillan over veteran Joe Mixon (foot) after Mixon failed a physical.

The Eagles placed Bigsby (abdomen) on injured reserve Tuesday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Bigsby will require core muscle surgery for an abdominal injury that he picked up during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams. The fourth-year pro will be required to miss at least the next four games, so the earliest he can return is Week 9 against the Giants on Sunday, Nov. 8. Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is considered week-to-week, and with Bigsby on IR, Will Shipley could be the Eagles' starting running back for Week 5 against the Jaguars on Sunday in London.

The Seahawks placed Wright (foot) on the practice squad injured list Tuesday.

Wright was the only remaining running back on Seattle's practice squad, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. The 26-year-old is ineligible to be elevated to the active roster for the next four games, adding to an already injured running back group, with Zach Charbonnet (Knee - ACL) and Jadarian Price (chest) both on injured reserve.

Gray was released from the Browns' practice squad Tuesday.

Gray appeared in 34 career regular-season games, recording 31 rushes for 79 yards and catching 16 of 18 targets for 104 yards. The 26-year-old did not appear in a game for Cleveland since signing with the team.

Miller (groin) was cleared of any injury designation Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Miller was waived by the Giants with an injury settlement in mid-August. Now, with no injury designation, the 27-year-old can re-sign with the Giants this season. The third-year pro played two games with New York in 2024, recording seven special teams snaps and one on offense.

The Texans signed Vaughn to the practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Vaughn had a brief stint with the Texans in August before being waived ahead of Week 1. The 24-year-old has not played in a regular-season game since the 2024 season, where he recorded 17 rush attempts for 70 yards and caught three of five targets for 18 yards.

Brooks underwent further tests on his ankle Monday, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Brooks underwent further tests on his ankle after leaving Sunday's Week 4 game with an ankle injury. The 26-year-old has seen more reps through four weeks with starter Josh Jacobs (personal) remaining out.

The Seahawks opted not to sign Mixon (foot) after he underwent a physical for the team Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

With Jadarian Price (chest) recently landing on injured reserve and with Zach Charbonnet (knee) not expected to return from the PUP list until at least Week 6, Seattle planned to bring Mixon aboard to bolster their running-back room. However, the Seahawks evidently had some reservations about Mixon's health after reviewing his physical, and the 30-year-old will now remain a free agent. Mixon last appeared in the NFL with the Texans in 2024, as he missed the entire 2025 campaign due to an unspecified foot/ankle injury that he ultimately addressed with a surgery earlier this past offseason.

Kamara rushed seven times for 23 yards and two touchdowns and brought in five of seven targets for 35 yards in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

With Travis Etienne (hamstring, IR) missing his first game of the season, Kamara was back in the familiar lead role he'd filled with great success previously. While Kamara's rushing opportunities were ultimately limited significantly by game script, the veteran back maximized his time on the field by scoring from three and five yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. Kamara could have more of an opportunity for a normal rushing workload -- albeit in a tough matchup -- in a Week 5 home matchup against the Vikings on Sunday.
