  • Daijahn Anthony SAF | CIN

    Bengals' Daijahn Anthony: Heads to IR

    Anthony (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Bengals on Tuesday, but he was designated to return.

    The safety will have to miss at least the first four games of the regular season. Anthony played in 13 games, on seven defensive snaps and on 169 special-teams snaps in 2024, making three tackles (two solo). The 2024 seventh-round pick could have a similar role once he returns.

  • Byron Cowart DT | NYJ

    Jets' Byron Cowart: Placed on injured reserve

    The Jets placed Cowart (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.

    Cowart missed all three of the Jets' preseason games due to an ankle injury that he suffered during training camp practice in early August. By being placed on IR prior to Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET roster cut deadline, Cowart will be forced to miss the entire 2025 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Jets. The 2019 fifth-round pick appeared in 15 regular-season games (including seven starts) for the Bears last year and posted 26 tackles (14 solo), including 2.5 sacks.

  • Cory Trice CB | PIT

    Steelers' Cory Trice: Sidelined to begin 2025

    Trice (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Teresa Varley of Steelers.com reports.

    Trice has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since Aug. 1 and has been prone to lower-body injuries throughout his pro career. He was designated to return, meaning he will be sidelined for at least the first four games of the 2025 season.

  • Taki Taimani DL | MIN

    Taki Taimani: Pens practice-squad deal

    Taimani (undisclosed) signed with the Vikings' practice squad Wednesday, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

    Taimani was waived by the team Tuesday. The second-year defensive tackle played seven games with the Vikings last year and posted three tackles (one solo).

  • Ravens' Ar'Darius Washington: Lands on reserve/PUP list

    The Ravens placed Washington (Achilles) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Washington is recovering from a torn Achilles that he suffered in May, but there's optimism that he could be fully healthy late in the regular season. He played in all 17 regular-season games for the Ravens in 2024 and finished with career highs in defensive snaps (677), tackles (64), pass defenses (eight) and interceptions (two).

  • Deane Leonard CB | LAC

    Chargers' Deane Leonard: Placed on IR, designated to return

    Leonard (leg) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return Wednesday.

    Leonard suffered a leg injury in the Chargers' second preseason contest Aug. 10, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the 2025 season. In his absence, Benjamin St-Juste and Nikko Reed stand to see an increase in reps at cornerback with Los Angeles.

  • 49ers' Jakob Robinson: Moves to IR

    Robinson (forearm) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Robinson suffered a broken forearm in the 49ers' preseason finale against the Chargers, which will ultimately force the undrafted rookie to miss the entire NFL season. The 24-year-old cornerback will turn his attention to his recovery before his next opportunity to see the field in 2026.

  • Ravens' Emery Jones: Lands on NFI list

    Jones (shoulder) was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Jones underwent shoulder surgery a week after the NFL Combine, according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. The rookie third-round pick out of LSU is now guaranteed to miss the first four games of the season. Daniel Faalele is expected to start at right guard to begin the season, and it's unclear if Jones will usurp him upon return.

  • Adisa Isaac LB | BAL

    Ravens' Adisa Isaac: Officially goes to IR

    Baltimore placed Isaac (elbow) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Isaac was already expected to miss half of the 2025 season after dislocating his elbow during the Ravens' second preseason game at Dallas, but it's now certain he'll have to miss at least the first four games of the year. He was designated for return by Baltimore, which means he'll be allowed to play once healthy starting in Week 5 versus the Texans. Until he returns, rookie second-rounder Mike Green projects to see a higher share of snaps on the edge.

  • Jake Hanson C | ATL

    Jake Hanson: Let go from Atlanta's IR

    The Falcons released Hanson (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Terrin Waack, Will McFadden and Tori McElhaney of the team's official site report.

    Hanson was set to miss the entire 2025 season after landing on the Falcons' IR due to an undisclosed injury. However, the injury settlement will allow the 2020 sixth-round pick to sign with a team once he's fully healthy.
