• The Carolina Panthers have waived Frank Alexander with the injured designation and signed tight end Dallas Walker, reportsThe Charlotte Observer. If Alexander, who is out for the year with a torn Achilles, goes unclaimed, he will revert to the Panthers' injured reserve list. The team will likely not take the same risk with receiver Kelvin Benjamin, who is also out for the season.

Yates and Sean Renfree. Grossman, 35, played under Atlanta offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan in Washington and Cleveland. Grossman turned down an opportunity to join the Browns last season.

Vick, 3-6 as a starter the last two seasons with the Eagles and Jets, could be needed after an injury to backup quarterback Bruce Gradkowski, who is having surgery for a dislocated left finger. 
• Former Houston Texas center Chris Meyers announced his retirement on SportsRadio 610 in Houston on Tuesday. Myers, who went to college at Miami, played for the Texans from 2008 to 2014. He also spent three seasons in Denver at the start of his career.
