- DE Rondell Bothroyd
- LB Shayne Simon
- LB Deion Jones
- CB Kyron Brown
Byrd, 31, wound up signing on with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent out of South Carolina back in 2015. He bounced on and off their active roster until signing a one-year deal with the Cardinals in March of 2019
He signed a one-year deal with the Patriots for 2020 and signed another one-year deal with the Bears in 2021. From there, Byrd joined the Falcons on a one-year contract for the 2022 season before catching on with the Panthers last offseason.
Carolina placed Byrd on injured reserve and he was later released with a settlement before catching on with Atlanta. Byrd briefly had a stint on the Texans practice squad following his time with the Falcons.
Byrd signed with the Commanders earlier this offseason following a tryout but was cut during camp before working out and signing with the Bills.
In 2023, Byrd appeared in one game for the Falcons.
