Baltimore placed Pocic (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.

Pocic hurt his knee in Week 3 against Dallas and will need to sit out at least four games. Jovaughn Gwyn (ankle) was also moved to IR on Saturday, leaving Olaivavega Ioane to handle starting center duties for the Ravens moving forward.

The Ravens moved Gwyn (lower leg) to injured reserve Saturday.

This move was anticipated after Gwyn was diagnosed with a fractured fibula earlier in the week and given a 2-to-3 month return timetable. Ethan Pocic (knee) also landed on injured reserve Saturday, so Baltimore will have to rely on rookie first-rounder Olaivavega Ioane to handle center duties Sunday versus Tennessee and for several weeks beyond.

Miller (toe) does not have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against the Falcons.

Miller missed the past two weeks due to a toe injury but is in line to return on Monday Night Football. He was a second-round selection in April's NFL Draft and logged a 32 percent defensive snap share in his NFL debut Week 1 versus Detroit.

Porter is likely to make his 2026 debut for Dallas against Houston on Sunday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

Porter missed the first three weeks of the campaign while with Pittsburgh due to both a back injury and a contract dispute. He had initially been ruled out for the Steelers' Week 4 matchup against Cleveland on Thursday but was then traded to the Cowboys late Wednesday. Though Porter wasn't given an injury designation by Dallas heading into the weekend, it was uncertain if he'd play Sunday given both his conditioning and his limited amount of time to learn the playbook. It appears, however, that Porter is going to be able to give it a go against the Texans, and he should immediately play a key role in Dallas' secondary.

Abdullah is questionable for Monday's matchup against New Orleans due to an illness, Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Abdullah wasn't originally on Atlanta's injury report, but he was added Saturday afternoon after coming down with an illness. The 26-year-old has logged 47 defensive snaps and two tackles through three games this season.

Green Bay placed Brinson (calf/groin) on injured reserve Saturday.

Brinson hurt his calf during the preseason and didn't suit up for the Packers' first three games. He logged a limited practice this Wednesday but slipped and injured his groin, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, and was then a DNP both Thursday and Friday. Though Brinson's placement on IR means the Packers now have an open roster spot, they didn't add anyone to the active roster or elevate any players ahead of Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay, so they'll enter that contest with a 52-man roster.

Jennings (knee) won't play Monday against the Falcons, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Jennings suffered a knee injury last Sunday versus the Raiders and wasn't able to practice at all this week. Unsurprisingly, he's been ruled out from playing on Monday Night Football. With Carl Granderson (ankle) also out this week, both Myles Cole and Chris Rumph seem to in line for larger roles on defense.

The Rams signed Bachman from their practice squad to their 53-man roster Saturday.

Bachman spent a portion of training camp with the Rams before signing to the practice squad in early September. He's evidently made a positive impression, as Los Angeles has elected to promote him to the active roster despite the fact that he's yet to see gameday action this season. Bachman will assume the roster spot vacated by tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle), who landed on IR on Friday. However, Bachman doesn't stand to see many opportunities on offense with the Rams currently fielding a relatively healthy wideout corps.

The Giants elevated Haener from their practice squad Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Haener was active for last Sunday's win against Tennessee but didn't get into the game. He was subsequently waived Monday after New York traded for J.J. McCarthy, but Haener then rejoined New York as part of the team's practice squad Wednesday. His elevation for Week 4 likely means Haener will back up Jameis Winston for a second straight week, as Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com notes that McCarthy likely hasn't yet had enough time to familiarize himself with the Giants' playbook.

Brown (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Monday's Week 4 matchup against Atlanta.

Brown missed last Sunday's loss to Las Vegas due to a hamstring injury. However, he logged an LP/LP/FP practice progression this week and has been cleared to suit up Monday. Brown's primary role for the Saints this season has been as a kick and punt returner, and he has no targets on offense so far while logging nine offensive snaps through two games.
