Wide receiver Amara Darboh, a 2017 third-round pick, and quarterback Alex McGough, this year’s seventh-round pick, were among those waived.

Two of the more notable names to make the team are wide receiver David Moore and defensive tackle Poona Ford.

A bit surprising was the Injured Reserve list. The inclusion of offensive tackle Jamarco Jones, who suffered a serious ankle sprain earlier this preseason, was expected. But also placed on IR was cornerback Byron Maxwell, linebacker Erik Walden and quarterback Austin Davis. Tight end Ed Dickson was placed on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list.
