Elevated for Week 3 The Panthers elevated Tyus from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Impact Tyus is set to be the No. 3 option at running back in Sunday's game against the Browns. Chuba Hubbard and AJ Dillon will still see the majority, if not all, of the offensive reps in the contest, but Tyus will be the reserve option if the two need a break or succumb to injury.

Staying with Panthers The Panthers signed Tyus to their practice squad Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Impact Tyus signed a reserve/future contract with Carolina but was unable to earn a roster spot. With only three running backs on the active roster and both Chuba Hubbard (hamstring) and Jonathon Brooks (general soreness) dealing with injuries, Tyus could be elevated for the team's Week 1 matchup against the Bears.

Inks reserve/future deal with CAR The Panthers signed Tyus to a reserve/future contract Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Impact Tyus initially signed with Detroit as an undrafted free agent last April. He spent some time with Seattle's practice squad before finding work with Carolina's practice squad in early October. Tyus didn't get elevated for any games this season, but he'll now have a chance to show the Panthers what he can do during upcoming offseason activities.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Coming to Carolina Tyus signed with the Panthers' practice squad Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Impact The Ohio product was dropped from Seattle's practice squad in late August but has now found a new home in Carolina. Tyus has yet to appear in an NFL game after rushing 237 times for 1,215 yards and nine touchdowns during his final collegiate season in 2024.

OCTOBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Cut from Hawks' practice squad The Seahawks cut Tyus from the practice squad Thursday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact The move makes room on the Seahawks' practice squad for linebacker Chris Paul. Tyus failed to make Seattle's 53-man roster at the end of training camp after logging 21 carries for 55 yards and one catch (on two targets) for two yards across three preseason games. The undrafted rookie will look to catch on with another team's practice squad.

AUGUST 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Earns spot on practice squad Tyus signed with the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday.

Impact Tyus will join fellow rookie running backs Damien Martinez (seventh round) and Jacardia Wright (undrafted) on the Seahawks' practice squad. Tyus finished the preseason with just 21 carries for 55 yards (2.6 YPC) and one catch for two yards. He's a long shot to get called up to the active roster.

AUGUST 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Let go by Seahawks The Seahawks waived Tyus on Tuesday.

Impact An undrafted rookie, Tyus was let go by the Lions earlier this summer before latching on with the Seahawks. The Ohio product struggled this preseason with 21 carries for 55 yards (2.6 YPC). The Seahawks also waived rookies Damien Martinez and Jacardia Wright.

AUGUST 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Generates 23 yards Tyus rushed six times for 23 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie versus the Raiders.

Impact Tyus initially signed as an undrafted rookie with the Lions but was cut in July before joining the Seahawks. The Ohio product didn't play until the fourth quarter of Thursday's game. He looks like a longshot to make the 53-man roster with five other running backs ahead of him on the depth chart.

AUGUST 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Seattle The Seahawks signed Tyus on Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Tyus had signed with Detroit as an undrafted free agent back in April before being waived last month with a non-football illness designation. He had previously tried out with Seattle last week and will now look to earn a spot on the team's final roster.

AUGUST 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Tries out with Seattle Tyus (illness) worked out with the Seahawks on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Tyus is healthy again after having been waived by Detroit with a non-football illness designation earlier this month. He will look to catch on with Seattle, who are in need of extra depth at running back after Kenny McIntosh suffered a season-ending torn ACL last week.

JULY 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Waived with non-football illness Tyus was waived with a non-football illness Thursday.

Impact Tyus parts ways with the Lions organization after signing with the team in May as an undrafted free agent out of Ohio. If Tyus passes through waivers unclaimed, he would be free to sign with any team once healthy.

JULY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set to sign with Detroit Tyus is slated to sign as an undrafted free agent with the Lions, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Tyus had a limited role during his first three collegiate seasons with Northwestern but broke out in his lone year with Ohio, rushing for 1,215 yards and nine touchdowns on 237 carries while adding 137 yards and another two scores on 16 receptions. The 6-foot-1 running back will look to carve out a depth role among a Lions running-back corps that is headed by Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Detroit didn't take a running back in the draft, and the only two other ball carriers currently on the team's roster are Craig Reynolds and Sione Vaki.
