Rocket Sanders’ waiver-exit to Cleveland ends a Chargers preseason spark, thinning LA’s UDFA-depth and lighting a path for the Browns’ backfield without him. The move underscores how high the stakes can be on cut-down day with lesser-known runners flashing in camp and then vanishing to rival rosters.

LA shuffled its practice-squad map, adding Kamani Vidal, Tarhe Edwards, Devon Campbell, and DJ Uiagalelei while bringing back Delshon Phillips and Tony Jefferson. Najee Harris’ status and the QB depth battle behind Justin Herbert linger as key fantasy threads, with the Week 1 Brazil opener looming and rosters still fluid ahead of it.
