What happened: The NFL Management Council determined defensive tackle Zxavian Harris never practiced and is now a free agent, per Tom Pelissero. Harris attempted to return to college at LSU and is eligible to visit and sign with any NFL team.

Why it matters: The decision resolves the roster limbo that followed the NFL barring Harris for 2026. It allows teams seeking defensive tackle depth to host him for visits during the 2026 regular season.

What to watch: Visits and workouts will determine how quickly Harris draws interest. A signing would close the eligibility dispute stemming from his LSU return attempt.
