"Okwuegbunam spent the entirety of the 2025 campaign with Las Vegas as a member of the practice squad, garnering a pair of elevations in Week 4 and Week 5. The tight end reeled in five of six targets for 36 yards in the team's Week 5 loss to the Colts, and he didn't get another shot with the active roster the rest of the way. With Brock Bowers (knee) and Michael Mayer still under contract in 2026, Okwuegbunam will compete for the No. 3 role at tight end ahead of next season."

"Firkser signed with the Lions' practice squad in mid-November and was quickly elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's Week 12 matchup with the Giants due to Sam LaPorta (back) being sidelined. The tight end's role quickly expanded after Brock Wright (neck) went down for the year in Week 13, and Firkser ultimately caught at least one pass in four of the seven games he appeared in with the team. Prior to this season, Firkser hadn't reeled in a pass since the 2022 campaign, and he'll now be a free agent heading into the offseason."
