Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (knee) is now a free agent. When the team reworked his deal last year, it included an option for the 2024 season, and the team has declined to pick it up. The move clears what would have been $10 million in salary, but the Bucs will take on roughly $6.9 million in dead money from old restructures. Gage signed a three-year, $30 million in free agency before the 2022 season to give quarterback Tom Brady another weapon in the passing game. He did have a career-high five touchdowns in 2022, but he also had a disappointing 51 catches for 426 yards and didn't play at all last year due to a torn patellar tendon that he suffered in training camp in August. The 28-year-old should resurface with another team, but coming off a major knee injury, it's unlikely that he'll be able to make much of a fantasy impact wherever he lands.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Hodge injured his ankle in Atlanta's second preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals when he was twisted to the ground by a defender. Although the wideout didn't practice on Monday, his limited participation on Wednesday has him trending in the right direction for the season opener. Hodge caught 13 passes for 202 yards and one touchdown with Atlanta in 2022. He comes in as the Falcons' WR4 if he suits up in Week 1.
