Signing with practice squad
McGuire will sign with the Chiefs' practice squad Tuesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: The Chiefs are making the move after rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire suffered a high-ankle sprain and a strained hip in last week's win over the Saints. McGuire will add organizational depth in the backfield behind Le'Veon Bell, Darrel Williams and Darwin Thompson (illness). The fourth-year tailback hasn't suited up since 2018 when he rushed 92 times for 276 yards and three touchdowns and caught 19 receptions for 193 yards and a score.

Getting look from KC
McGuire will head to Kansas City for a visit with the Chiefs, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: With the team concerned starting back Clyde Edwards-Helaire suffered a high-ankle sprain and a strained hip during Sunday's win over New Orleans, contingency plans are therefore needed at the position. McGuire offers experience with 591 rushing yards over 180 career carries for the Jets, but he hasn't played in a game in two years. Another former Jet, two-time All-Pro Le'Veon Bell, joined the team in October after being cut by New York, and his Week 15 outing of 76 scrimmage yards and a…read more

Demoted, then cut by Miami
McGuire reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday and was later cut, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: McGuire got the call to suit up for Miami's Week 14 home test against the defending-champion Chiefs, though he ultimately did not see any action during the contest. Having made stops in Kansas City, Dallas and Miami within the past calendar year, the 26-year-old remains devoid of an NFL appearance since his time with the Jets in 2018.

Rises to active roster
McGuire was promoted to the Dolphins' active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Both Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida have been placed on the COVID-19 list, while Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus the Chiefs. As a result, McGuire could get an immediate opportunity after signing with the practice squad just a few days ago. DeAndre Washington and Patrick Laird still figure to handle a bulk of the work. McGuire last played in 2018, when he suited up for the Jets and posted 276 yards and three touchdowns on 92 carries (3.0 yards per carry) and 193…read more

Headed to Miami
McGuire inked a contract with the Dolphins' practice squad Wednesday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: McGuire last suited up with the Cowboys' practice squad this season, but he's found a new home in which to attempt to break back into the league. The 26-year-old spent two seasons with the Jets in 2017 and 2018, rushing for 591 yards and four touchdowns on 180 rushing attempts over that span.

Cut from Dallas' practice squad
McGuire was cut from the Cowboys' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's media transaction page.
Analysis: McGuire has bounced around a few teams' practice squads over the past two seasons after spending two seasons with the Jets to open his career. He averaged just 3.3 yards per carry over 24 games with New York, and McGuire will hope to get scooped up to the practice squad of another team looking to bolster its running back depth.

Heads to Cowboys' practice squad
The Cowboys signed McGuire to the practice squad Sunday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Chiefs released McGuire on Saturday, and the 26-year-old running back will look to add depth in Dallas. The Cowboys are carrying just three running backs - Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard and Rico Dowdle -- to begin the year, and if any of them are injured, McGuire will likely be promoted to the active roster since he has versatility as a pass-catcher.

Signs reserve/future contract
McGuire signed a reserve/future contract with the Chiefs on Tuesday, according to the NFL's official transaction report.
Analysis: The running back initially signed to the Chiefs' practice squad back in November and he'll now get a chance to develop in the Chiefs system this offseason. Both LeSean McCoy and Spencer Ware are slated to become free agents this offseason which could give McGuire added reps this spring.

Inks practice-squad deal
McGuire signed with the Chiefs' practice squad Tuesday, freelance NFL writer Howard Balzer reports.
Analysis: Damien Williams (ribs) and LeSean McCoy (undisclosed) were injured during Week 11's win over the Chargers, so the Chiefs are bringing in additional depth in case one or both are unable to play Sunday against the Raiders. McGuire last played in 2018 for the Jets, and he struggled on the ground with 2.7 YPC over the last four weeks but punched in three touchdowns. The 25-year-old has pass-catching upside, though, as he recorded 11 receptions for 126 yards and a score over that stretch.

Receives interest from Houston
McGuire worked out for the Texans recently, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: McGuire would only project as depth on this squad, barring an injury. Carlos Hyde and Duke Johnson are coming off one of their best rushing games of the season, whereas the 25-year-old hasn't played an NFL snap since last year.
