Around the NFL on cutdown day

• With the emergence of rookie running back Devin Singletary, the Bills cut 31-year-old veteran LeSean McCoy. McCoy's 10,606 yards rushing rank 25th on the career list and fourth among active players.

• The Eagles waived their two top rushers from last season (Josh Adams and Wendell Smallwood) and a starting offensive lineman (Stefen Wisniewski) on their Super Bowl championship team. Quarterback Clayton Thorson, a fifth-round pick out of Northwestern, also was released.

• Undrafted rookie Jamie Gillan beat out veteran Britton Colquitt for the Browns' punting job. Colquitt was a Pro Bowl alternate last season and has spent nine seasons in the NFL.

• Kicker Cody Parkey, who hasn't found a home since missing a 43-yard field goal in the waning seconds of the Bears' wild-card loss to the Eagles last season, had a tryout Saturday with the Jets.

• The Browns acquired guard Justin McCray in a trade with the Packers and wide receiver Taywan Taylor in a trade with the Titans. The Browns gave up a 2020 seventh-round draft pick in each deal, a person familiar with the moves said.

• The Bengals decided to keep injured receiver A.J. Green on the active roster to open the season, hoping he can return from ankle surgery in less than eight weeks.
