Analysis: Hurst signed with the Colts last Tuesday after spending the majority of 2021 on the Buccaneers' practice squad. Although he was likely a longshot to make the Colts' roster, it's still a major blow to the 25-year-old receiver who has yet to make his NFL debut.

The Chargers placed Hurst on the PUP list Tuesday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: The reason behind Hurst's placement on the list is unclear, but it will prevent the second-year wideout from getting a chance to make an early impression in training camp.

Analysis: Hurst made the Buccaneers out of training camp but started the year on IR with an ankle injury. He was waived from the active roster before playing a game, and now he'll look for a new team entirely.

Hurst (ankle) was activated off injured reserve Monday, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hurst returned to practice last week and now is officially eligible to see game action Sunday against the Raiders. An undrafted rookie out of Division II West Georgia, Hurst received praise throughout training camp this summer before spraining his ankle -- which landed him on IR. With plenty of mouths to feed in the Buccaneers' offense, the rookie will more than likely serve as a special teams contributor for the time being.

Hurst (ankle) returned to practice Tuesday, indicating the beginning of his 21-day window to be activated from IR, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Hurst can return to the lineup as early as Sunday's home game versus the Packers depending on how he responds to a week of practice. The undrafted rookie out of Division II West Georgia likely won't play much on offense once he's healthy, but he could vie for a spot on special teams.

Sep 8, 2020 10:01 PM EST
Hurst (ankle) is now sporting a boot after being in an air cast over the past week, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
