Let go
Abram was released from the Saints' practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: The safety was elevated to the active roster for each of the last three games, playing on 66 percent, 63 percent and 18 percent of the defensive snaps, respectively. Abram saw heavy snap counts in place of Will Harris (hamstring) and then Tyrann Mathieu, who was nursing a forearm injury. Jordan Howden stepped up to replace Harris.

Picks off Mayfield in Week 6
Abram finished Sunday's 51-27 loss to the Buccaneers with seven tackles (three solo) and one interception.
Analysis: Abram was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for a second straight game. The 2019 first-round pick took advantage of the opportunity by picking off Baker Mayfield midway through the second quarter, which led to a 10-yard touchdown from Spencer Rattler to Bub Means on the next play. Abram can be elevated for one more game, after which the Saints would have to sign him to the active roster.

Makes return
Abram (back) has returned to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Abram's ability to get back in the game is good news for the Saints, who are dealing with multiple injuries at safety. The veteran should see considerable work in the second half, as long as he remains healthy.

Exits early
Abram (back) has left Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Abram had one tackle and a pass defended before exiting the game. His current absence is another blow to the Saints' secondary, who is also currently without Tyrann Mathieu (forearm) as well after an earlier in-game injury.

Misses cut
Abram was released by the Saints on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: After being drafted by the Raiders in 2019, Abram has spent the last three seasons in Green Bay, Seattle and New Orleans. The journeyman was looking to return to the Big Easy, but he ultimately failed to make it through final roster cuts. It remains to be seen what opportunity will arise next for the veteran safety.

Staying with New Orleans
Abram agreed to a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: In nine regular-season games with the Saints in 2023, the 2019 first-round draft pick recorded 26 tackles and one interception. By bringing back the 27-year-old, New Orleans' secondary maintains some needed depth following the offseason departures of Marcus Maye, Isaac Yiadom and Lonnie Johnson.

Plays nine games for Saints
Abram finished the 2023 regular season with 26 tackles and one interception in nine appearances.
Analysis: Abram bounced back and forth between New Orleans' practice squad and active roster. While the majority of his playing time came on special teams this season, the 2019 first-round pick saw significant snaps on defense in four of his nine appearances, including when he played every defensive snap over the final two weeks of the regular season. Abram initially joined the Saints on a one-year deal in March, and he is set to become an unrestricted free agent this coming offseason.

Responsible for two turnovers
Abram had five solo tackles, one pass defended, one interception and one forced fumble in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Both of Abram's turnovers occurred in the second half of Sunday's win. He jarred the ball out of Rachaad White's hands in the third quarter, a play that helped lead to a Saints field goal seven plays later. Two possessions later, Abram picked off Baker Mayfield on a pass intended for David Moore. It was Abram's first start at strong safety since being signed to the active roster Nov. 30, and he played all 50 defensive snaps in Sunday's victory.

Gets promotion
Abram signed with the Saints' 53-man roster from their practice squad Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abram had previously been elevated three times this season by New Orleans, although he hasn't suited up since Week 5 against the Patriots. With Marcus Maye (shoulder) questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, the Saints have opted to bring Abram back to their active roster to strengthen their depth in the secondary.

Back to practice squad
Abram reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday.
Analysis: Abram was elevated to the active roster head of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with Jordan Howden (finger) ruled out. Abram took advantage of his second promotion of the season, registering five tackles (one solo) while playing 52 defensive snaps and seven snaps on special teams. The 2019 first-round pick out of Mississippi State could be called up once more for Week 5 against the Patriots if Howden is unable to suit up.

Cut by New Orleans
Abram was released by the Saints on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abram signed with New Orleans this offseason after stints with the Raiders, Packers and Seahawks. The 2019 first-round pick has appeared in 43 games throughout his four-year career, racking up 267 tackles, 14 pass breakups and three interceptions. If the 26-year-old clears waivers, the Saints are expected to add him to their practice squad.

Heading to New Orleans
Abram agreed to a contract with the Saints and is slated to sign with the team Wednesday following a physical, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: A first-round selection of the Raiders in the 2019 NFL Draft, Abram was cut loose by Las Vegas in November of last season and caught on with Green Bay and Seattle before the end of the campaign. Neither club sought to bring Abram back in free agency, but the veteran safety will get an opportunity to get his career back on track in New Orleans, where he'll likely fill a depth role in the secondary.

Claimed by Seattle
Seattle claimed Abram off waivers Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abram was waived by the Packers on Tuesday after playing primarily on special teams across two appearances. However, the 2019 first-round pick quickly found a new home and will look to carve out a role in Seattle's secondary, which may be without Ryan Neal (elbow) for Week 13.

Done in Green Bay
The Packers waived Abram on Tuesday.
Analysis: Abram was claimed off waivers by the Packers on Nov. 9, and he ultimately saw game action on two occasions and recorded one tackle in each game. The fourth-year safety is now on the hunt for his next opportunity for playing time.

Packs bags for Green Bay
The Packers claimed Abram off waivers Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: After being surprisingly waived by Las Vegas on Tuesday, Abram has found another opportunity with a new team where he'll reunite with former Raiders interim coach and current Packers special-teams coach Rich Bisaccia. That may be where he'll see most of his opportunities at first, but he also eventually could find his way into Green Bay's secondary rotation with starter Darnell Savage having struggled somewhat as of late.

Done in Las Vegas
Las Vegas waived Abram on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Raiders spent the 27th overall pick to acquire Abram back in 2019, but they've decided to let him go after three and a half seasons anyway. The 26-year-old safety had been ceding work to sophomore second-rounder Trevon Moehrig over Las Vegas' last four games, and the latter should take over as the team's starter next to Duron Harmon moving forward.

Playing Sunday
Abram (illness) is active Sunday against the Saints.
Analysis: Abram closed out the week with limited practices back-to-back Thursday and Friday. As a key piece of the Raiders secondary, his ability to take the field Sunday will be a boost for the team's defense.

Questionable for Sunday
Abram (illness) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against New Orleans, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: Abram logged back-to-back limited sessions after not practicing Wednesday due to an illness and will likely be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 1:00 PM ET kickoff. The third-year safety has been a key piece of Las Vegas' secondary this season, so his potential absence would be a huge blow to the Raiders defense.

Misses practice
Abram (illness) did not practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Abram must have picked up his illness following Week 7's win over the Texans as he played the entire matchup. Through his first six games with Las Vegas, Abram has compiled 40 tackles (30 solo) and one pass breakup. He'll have two more practice chances ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints.

Abram recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 38-20 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Abram notched his most tackles in a game since recording 12 during the season opener. Across six appearances, he's notched 40 tackles and one pass defense, putting him slightly behind pace to match his career-high 116 stops from a year ago.

Participating in offseason workouts
Abram (shoulder) has been participating in offseason work and will likely be the starting safety next to Trevon Moehrig to begin the 2022 campaign, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Abram registered a career-high 116 tackles across 14 games last year before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury. However, he appears to have moved past the issue and should be good to go for Week 1. The Raiders opted to decline the 2019 first-round pick's fifth-year option for the 2023 season, so he'll be playing for a new contract this fall.

Vegas declines fifth-year option
The Raiders declined Abram's (shoulder) fifth-year option for 2023 on Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Abram started 14 games during the 2021 season and registered a career-high 116 tackles, five tackles for loss, four pass deflections and one interception. However, the 2019 first-round pick underwent season-ending surgery after dislocating his shoulder against the Browns in Week 15. He's expected to be healthy by the start of the regular season, but he'll be playing for a new contract during the 2022 campaign.

Abram (shoulder) was placed on IR on Saturday.
Analysis: Abram was scheduled to undergo season-ending surgery Thursday after he dislocated his shoulder in Week 15 against the Browns. The 2019 first-round selection has played a significant role in the Raiders' secondary each of the last two seasons and will finish 2021 with 116 tackles (64 solo), four passes defensed and an interception.

Set for season-ending surgery
Abram is scheduled to undergo season-ending surgery Thursday on his dislocated shoulder, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abram had been hopeful to play through the injury, but he'll heed the advice of doctors and sit out the remainder of the campaign, with his upcoming procedure expected to put him at full strength entering 2022. Before exiting in the second half of Monday's win over the Browns, Abram had played every snap on defense through Las Vegas' first 14 games.

Dealing with dislocated shoulder

Analysis: Abram racked up nine tackles (six solo) before being forced out of Monday's contest, and his status will now need to be monitored for Week 16.

Questionable to return Monday
Abram (shoulder) is questionable to return to Monday's contest against the Browns.
Analysis: Abram had a team-high nine tackles -- including two for loss --before he left the contest in the fourth quarter with a shoulder injury. If he is unable to return, then Roderic Teamer would likely slide into the starting lineup opposite of Trevon Moehrig.

Analysis: Abram has been on the field for every defensive snap this season, capitalizing on his good health to the tune of 25 tackles and a pass breakup through three weeks. The 24-year-old safety is lining up in the box often, so he should comfortably keep up his current tackling rate.

Ready for third season
Abram (hip) participated in the offseason program and will be ready for training camp, Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: A 2019 first-round pick, Abram played just one game as a rookie, but he demonstrated his upside in 2020 by stacking up 86 tackles, six pass breakups and two interceptions over 13 games. Toward the end of the season, Abram began playing a box safety role that entailed him functioning more as a linebacker, where he was able to stop the run and pressure the quarterback more often.

Abram (concussion/neck) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Josh Dubow of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Abram returned to practice for the first time since suffering a concussion in a Week 14 loss to the Colts.

Won't play Thursday
Abram (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chargers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Abram was concussed in last week's loss to Indianapolis and failed to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol on a short week. Per Gutierrez, coach Jon Gruden said he looks forward to Dallin Leavitt stepping up, so Leavitt will likely help veteran Lamarcus Joyner fill the void at safety created by Abram's absence. Abram will need to clear the concussion protocol in order to play in Week 16 against Miami.

In concussion protocol
Abram suffered a concussion during Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Colts, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Abram will need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before he can play in a game. With a short practice week ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Chargers, there's a decent chance that Abram misses his third game of the season. Lamarcus Joyner likely would start at strong safety if Abram sits out.

Evaluated for concussion

Misses practice Wednesday
Abram (knee) didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Abram saw action in 96 percent of defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Falcons, so the team could be looking to monitor his practice snaps leading up to Week 13. The 2019 first-round pick has been outstanding in his last four games, racking up 31 tackles (23 solo), two pass breakups and an interception.

It's unclear how serious the groin injury is for the Mississippi State product, but expect his practice availability the rest of the week to shed a better light on his chances to play this week. If he's forced to miss time, Jeff Heath would be in line for a start at strong safety.

Racks up 10 tackles
Abram totaled 10 tackles (six solo) and one pass defensed in Sunday's win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Abram finished with 10 or more tackles for just the second time this season, with his other such performance coming in Week 1 against the Panthers. The 2019 first-round pick will head into Week 10 against Denver with 42 tackles (31 solo), four passes defensed and an interception through seven contests.

Ready for Sunday's game
Abram (illness) will play in Sunday's game against the Chargers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Abram missed the first two practices of the week due to an illness, but he worked at full speed Friday and has been cleared for Week 9. The 2019 first-round pick has stacked up 32 tackles (25 solo), three pass breakups and an interception through the first six games as the Raiders' starting strong safety.

Missing practice time
Abram (illness) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Abram had resided on the COVID-19 list earlier in the season, but this illness doesn't appear to be virus-related. It's too early to panic about the 2019 first-round pick's status for Sunday's game against the Chargers, but if he's forced to miss the game, Jeff Heath (hip) would be in line for a start if he's healthy.

Back from COVID list
Abram was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The 24-year-old was placed on the COVID-19 list Thursday due to his close contact with Trent Brown (illness), but he's returning to the active roster when first eligible. Abram should return to his starting role after being forced to miss the Week 7 loss to the Buccaneers.

Not expected to play Sunday
Abram (illness) is not eligible to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list in time for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abrams is listed as having been in close contact with Trent Brown (illness) on Tuesday, which doesn't leave him with a long enough period of time to gain full clearance by Sunday. The Raiders also had to place offensive linemen Rodney Hudson, Denzelle Good, Gabe Jackson and Kolton Miller on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, though it appears that each of them has a chance for Week 7. Jeff Heath would stand to see an uptick in defensive snaps if Abram is indeed forced to miss time.

Added to COVID list
Abram landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: There remains a chance that Abram could be cleared Sunday morning by passing by a POC test, but the second-year safety would then be afforded minimal pre-game preparation time as the NFL has decided to move the Las Vegas-Tampa Bay matchup out of primetime and into the Sunday 4:05 p.m. ET timeslot. In addition to Abram, offensive linemen Rodney Hudson, Denzelle Good, Gabe Jackson and Kolton Miller also landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday. If the game is not pushed to Monday or Tuesday,…read more

Sent home as precaution
Abram was sent home from practice Wednesday due to COVID-19 contact tracing, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The entire Raiders' offensive line was also sent home, revealing a possible COVID-19 outbreak in the team's facilities. At this time, it doesn't appear Abram has tested positive for the virus, but he may have come into close contact with an infected person. His status is in question for this Sunday's home game versus the Buccaneers.

Ready for Week 4
Abram (shoulder/thumb) is officially active for Sunday's game against Buffalo.
Analysis: The 23-year-old was considered questionable after practicing as a limited participant all week, but it won't keep him out of Sunday's game. Abram should play his usual role at strong safety for the Raiders.

Questionable after limited practice
Abram (shoulder/thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Abram got his first career interception in last week's loss to the Patriots, but he has been limited in each of the Raiders' practices this week, leaving him questionable for Sunday's home game. Jeff Heath would be in line for an expanded role if Abram can't go come game day.

Snags first career interception
Abram registered three tackles (two solo), one pass defensed and an interception in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Abram picked off Patriots quarterback Cam Newton for the former's first career interception, but the safety otherwise struggled in New England after racking up an impressive 13 tackles in Week 1. Abrams will look to force another turnover in Week 4 as the undefeated Bills travel to Vegas.

Full go Wednesday
Abram (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Abram suffered what appeared to be a significant shoulder injury during Monday's win over the Saints, but he appears fully healthy. Wednesday's injury report is only an estimation, but Abram also managed to play 57 of 60 defensive snaps Monday despite briefly leaving in the first quarter. The second-year pro looks on track to face the Patriots in Week 3.

Positive injury news
Abram had an X-ray on his shoulder that didn't reveal structural damage, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Abram crashed into a TV cart in the first quarter of Monday's 34-24 win over the Saints, but he still managed to play 57 of 60 snaps. Since the X-ray was negative, there's still no clear indication of what Abram's dealing with, but it's not a major concern for his availability moving forward. Expect the 2019 first-round pick to be ready for Sunday's matchup versus New England.

Leading tackler in win
Abram logged a team-high 13 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Abram, whose rookie campaign in 2019 was cut short just one game into the season due to a torn rotator cuff, absolutely showed out in his return to the field Sunday. Seemingly back to 100 percent health, Abram will look to stay busy in Week 2 against a Saints offense that just put up 34 points in a win over the Buccaneers.

Seeking Year 2 breakout
Abram enters his second pro season locked in as the Raiders' starting strong safety, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The 27th overall pick in the 2019 draft suffered a season-ending rotator cuff tear Week 1 last year. A report in early February suggested he was 90 percent healthy and comfortably bench-pressing 185 pounds, so it's safe to assume Abram is back at full strength by this point. He should be locked in as a three-down player, while Damarious Randall, Erik Harris and Jeff Heath are all candidates to start at free safety. Abram looks like the best IDP choice of the group.

Close to full health
Abram is at 90 percent after tearing his rotator cuff in Oakland's 2019 season opener, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: According to Tafur, Abram benched 185 pounds 10 times during his recent training sessions. "I cannot wait to get back out there on the field," stated Abram. Assuming his rehab goes as planned the rest of the way, the Mississippi State product is on track to begin the 2020 season as the team's starting free safety.

Season officially over
Abram (shoulder) is not eligible to return from injured reserve in 2019 after the Raiders chose to activate Marquel Lee on Monday, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: It's not clear if Abram is close to returning from a health-standpoint anyway, but that doesn't matter now. The 2019 first-rounder will instead focus on making a full return from his torn labrum and rotator cuff before the start of spring workouts in 2020.
