News

  • Past foot injury

    Avery (foot) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Avery missed the Indianapolis' Week 8 loss to the Texans due to a foot injury, however, Wednesday's full practice suggests that he's now moved past the issue. The Memphis product has only suited up for one game this season and is expected to continue serving as a depth piece on the Colts' defensive line as the season progresses.

  • Will miss Week 8

    Avery has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans with a foot injury.

    Analysis: Avery didn't practice at all this week due to the injury. He's played in only one game so far this season, logging two defensive snaps Week 5 against the Jaguars, so Avery's absence Sunday isn't likely to have much of an impact on the Colts' defensive game plan.

  • Gets spot on main roster

    Avery was signed to the 53-man roster from the Colts' practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: Avery's move to the active roster comes as Indianapolis placed DeForest Buckner (ankle) on IR. The 29-year-old last suited up for the Buccaneers in 2022, where he appeared in nine contests, making five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks.

  • Back in the mix

    Avery (leg) recorded four tackles (three solo) during Saturday's preseason win versus the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Not only has Avery managed to recover from the LCL and meniscus issues he'd been nursing since last August, but he was often in the middle of the action during Indianapolis' second preseason contest. It would not be shocking if he found his way onto the Colts' final 53-man roster for 2024.

  • Dealing with upper leg injury

    Avery missed practice Friday with an upper leg injury, Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old missed all of last season after suffering a training camp knee injury that involved his LCL and meniscus, so any injury setback is a worry. He may miss Sunday's preseason game as a result.

  • Back at practice

    Avery (knee) is practicing this week at Colts training camp, Sports Illustrated's Jake Arthur reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old missed all of last season after suffering a training camp knee injury that involved his LCL and meniscus. Avery is competing for a role off the edge for the Colts this summer. He has 8.5 career sacks but just 4.0 since the start of the 2019 campaign.

  • Lands on IR

    Avery (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Scott Smith of Tampa Bay's official site reports.

    Analysis: Avery suffered an injury to his abdomen in Week 14 and has been sidelined since. He'll now miss the rest of the regular season, but he could return in the postseason should the Buccaneers advance to the divisional round. Anthony Nelson should get all the snaps he can handle at outside linebacker in the absence of Avery.

  • Remains out for Week 16

    Avery (abdomen/oblique) has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Cardinals, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Avery will miss a second consecutive game Sunday as he continues to nurse an abdominal injury. With Carl Nassib (pectoral) also unavailable, K.J. Britt could be asked to step into secondary role at outside linebacker in Week 16.

  • Unavailable Week 15

    Head coach Todd Bowles said Friday that Avery (abdomen) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Analysis: Avery, along with fellow linebackers Carl Nassib (pectoral), Cam Gill (foot) and Shaquil Barrett (Achilles), will be unavailable for this weekend's matchup versus Cincinnati. With Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (hip) also listed as questionable for the contest, Anthony Nelson and K.J. Britt are both in line to receive additional snaps Sunday.

  • Joins active roster

    The Buccaneers signed Avery to their 53-man roster Tuesday, Scott Smith of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Avery arrived in Tampa Bay during the latter portion of August but ultimately failed to make it through final roster cuts. He subsequently landed on its practice squad but actually suited up for the season-opening victory over Dallas, seeing 16 special teams snaps. He then reverted back to the practice unit until getting called up again Tuesday. He'll likely see a primary special teams role in the Bucs' Week 6 matchup with Pittsburgh.

  • Let go Tuesday

    Avery was cut by the Buccaneers on Tuesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Analysis: Avery initially signed with Tampa Bay on a one-year, $1.04 million deal last week after being dropped by Pittsburgh two days prior. The 27-year-old linebacker played 35 games over the past three seasons with the Eagles, and he will likely look to catch on in a reserve role with a new team this regular season.

  • Signs with Buccaneers

    Avery signed with the Buccaneers on Wednesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old was just released by the Steelers on Tuesday, but given Avery's solid body of work last season in Philadelphia, it's unsurprising he found a new home in short order. Avery finished the 2021 campaign with the Eagles having amassed a career-high 43 tackles over 16 games (12 starts), and he should serve as solid outside linebacker depth for the Buccaneers if he sticks on the final 53-man roster.

  • Loses spot

    Avery was waived by the Steelers on Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Avery had dealt with a groin injury earlier in camp, but he did play in Pittsburgh's preseason contest against the Jaguars on Saturday. The 27-year-old who had spent the previous three seasons in Philadelphia, will now have to find an opportunity elsewhere.

  • Leaves practice early

    Avery suffered a groin injury in practice Monday, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Avery joined the Steelers on a one-year deal in March after spending the previous three seasons in Philadelphia. He's currently expected to provide depth to the Steelers' linebacker corps, and he should return to that role once healthy.

  • Expected to sign with Pittsburgh

    Avery is expected to sign a one-year deal with the Steelers on Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Avery appeared in 16 games for the Eagles last season, totaling 43 tackles and one sack. The 2018 fifth-round pick figures to compete for a depth role amongst Pittsburgh's linebacker corps.

  • Clears COVID protocols

    Avery was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

    Analysis: Avery missed the Eagles' season finale against the Cowboys, but with his return from COVID protocols, he should suit up Sunday against the Buccaneers.

    Published: Mon, Jan 10 at 4:02pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Tests positive for COVID-19

    Avery was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Avery had three tackles (two solo) and a sack during Sunday's win over Washington but is now on the COVID-19 list. The 26-year-old still has a chance to play Week 18 but will need to clear the league protocols before retaking the field.

  • Past groin issue

    Avery (groin) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Analysis: Avery dealt with a groin injury in the preseason but will open the regular season healthy for the Eagles. He switched from defensive end to linebacker during the offseason and is listed as the starting strongside linebacker on the depth chart.

    Published: Wed, Sep 8 at 9:44pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Dealing with groin injury

    Avery is considered day-to-day with a groin injury, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It doesn't appear to be a serious injury, so Avery could end up making a quick return to practice. The 26-year-old played a minor role on the Eagles' defensive line over the past couple years before switching to linebacker during the offseason.

    Published: Mon, Aug 23 at 4:42pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Moving to linebacker

    Avery intends to switch from defensive end to linebacker in 2021, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: Avery only has handled about 150 defensive snaps across 19 games with the Eagles over the last two seasons, but perhaps he can be more productive at linebacker. The positional shift could allow him more opportunities to rack up tackles, but until Avery is able to earn more consistent playing time, he won't be worth much fantasy consideration in IDP formats. The 25-year-old is entering the final year of his rookie deal, making 2021 a pivotal season in his career.

  • Returns from injured reserve

    Avery (elbow) was activated from injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old received the return designation last week and apparently looked good during his first week of practice since late October. Avery should return to his rotational role on the defensive line for Philadelphia.

    Published: Mon, Nov 30 at 1:56pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Back at practice

    Avery (elbow) has been activated to the Eagles' 21-day practice window, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: The Eagles will now have three weeks to decide if they want to bring the defensive end back to the active roster. If that is the case, they will need to clear a roster spot for Avery. In six games this season, Avery has recorded five tackles, 1.5 sacks and a pass defensed.

    Published: Tue, Nov 24 at 7:38pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Lands on IR

    The Eagles placed Avery (elbow) on injured reserve Friday.

    Analysis: Avery didn't play a defensive snap in the Week 7 win over the Giants, and now he'll miss at least three weeks as he rehabs an elbow injury. The third-year defensive end out of Memphis will target a Week 11 return against the Browns.

  • Absent from injury report

    Avery (lower body) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Analysis: Avery suffered a lower body injury during the late portions of training camp, but he's returned to full health to kick off the regular season. He's slated to handle a reserve role at defensive end against Washington on Sunday.

    Published: Wed, Sep 9 at 3:29pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Day-to-day

    Avery is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: Avery was carted off the field during Wednesday's practice so it's a reassuring sign that his status is currently day-to-day. The defensive end is competing for a reserve role after coming over from the Browns in the offseason.

  • Carted off practice field

    Avery was carted off the field at Wednesday's practice due to a right knee or leg injury, Reuben Frank and Dave Zangaro of NBCSports Philadelphia report.

    Analysis: The details of Avery's injury remain undisclosed, but at this point it looks like a significant issue is within the realm of possibilities. He played a depth role in eight games for the Eagles in 2019, while also suiting up for two contests in Cleveland.

  • Dealing with illness

    Avery (illness) didn't practice Tuesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: Avery left Monday's practice early due to an undisclosed injury, and now he's away from the field altogether due to an illness. There are no reports that this is related to COVID-19. Once Avery returns to the field, he'll look to secure a depth spot on Philly's defensive front.
