  • Ethan Robinson CB | MIA

    Dolphins' Ethan Robinson: Placed on IR

    Robinson (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Dolphins on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Robinson was waived with an injury designation Sunday after suffering an undisclosed injury, and he is now set to miss the entirety of the 2026 season while on injured reserve. The cornerback could play again this year if he is able to reach an injury settlement with Miami, but he'll otherwise have to shift his focus to training camp in 2027.

  • 49ers' Victor Dimukeje: Lands in San Fran

    Dimukeje signed with the 49ers on Monday.

    The linebacker suffered a knee injury and landed on the Giants' injured-reserve list last December, but his July tryouts with the 49ers and Vikings indicated that he was healthy again. Dimukeje played more on special teams than defense in each of the last two seasons, and he logged over 200 special-teams snaps across each of his first four campaigns in the NFL from 2021-2024, all with Arizona.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Titans' Calvin Ridley: Logs one catch in preseason opener

    Ridley caught his only target for 18 yards in Thursday's preseason win over San Francisco.

    Ridley started the contest but was on the field for only the Titans' first drive, logging seven total offensive snaps. The veteran wideout appears healthy after playing in only seven games last season due to injuries, the last of which was a broken fibula he suffered in Week 11 that forced him to IR for the remainder of the campaign. Ridley looks to be set as Tennessee's No. 3 wide receiver this season behind first-round rookie Carnell Tate (undisclosed) and free-agent signing Wan'Dale Robinson, and the health of the Titans' passing game will largely depend on the growth (or lack thereof) of sophomore QB Cam Ward.

  • Ka'dar Hollman CB | HOU

    Ka'dar Hollman: Works out with Houston

    Hollman (knee) had a tryout with the Texans on Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Hollman last appeared in an NFL regular-season contest in 2024, suffering a torn ACL in the Texans' loss to the Titans in Week 12 of that season. The cornerback missed the entirety of the 2025 campaign, but he's now back to full health ahead of the 2026 season and may even return to Houston.

  • Patrick Mekari OT | JAC

    Jaguars' Patrick Mekari: Undergoes back surgery

    Mekari underwent a procedure on his back and will miss some time, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Mekari is expected to play this season, and the Jaguars have yet to decide if he will begin the campaign on injured reserve. The 29-year-old was set to operate as Jacksonville's starting right guard in 2026, and in his absence, rookie third-rounder Emmanuel Pregnon and second-year pro Wyatt Milum are the top candidates to take over that role for the time being.

  • Keeshawn Silver: Reaches injury settlement

    Silver (undisclosed) reached an injury settlement with the Saints on Monday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    The defensive tackle opened training camp on the PUP list, was activated in early August and then waived/injured two days later. Though the severity of his injury remains unclear, Silver is now free to sign with another team. The USC product initially joined the Saints in April as an undrafted free agent.

  • Keagen Trost OT | LAR

    Rams' Keagen Trost: Set to miss multiple weeks

    Trost (hamstring) is expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Trost suffered a hamstring injury in the first quarter of the team's 20-12 preseason win over Kansas City on Saturday. As a result, the offensive lineman will be forced to miss the remainder of the preseason, and he'll now shift his focus to being ready to go for Week 1 against the 49ers on Sept. 10 in Australia.

  • Coleman Bennett: Waived by Chicago

    Bennett was waived by the Bears on Monday.

    The running back signed with Chicago as an undrafted free agent in May. Bennett recorded 764 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns, as well as 27 catches for 314 receiving yards and three additional scores, with Kennesaw State in 2025. He'll now have to look for another opportunity in the NFL.

  • Nikola Kalinic TE | CHI

    Nikola Kalinic: Waived/injured by Chicago

    Kalinic (knee) was waived/injured by the Bears on Monday.

    The tight end injured his right knee during Chicago's preseason win over Cleveland on Saturday and headed to the locker room. If Kalinic clears waivers, he will need to reach an injury settlement with the Bears to have a chance to play in 2026, though the severity of his ailment remains unclear. The former Ram and Colt was competing for a depth role with Chicago.

  • Seahawks' Shemar Jean-Charles: Placed on IR

    Jean-Charles (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Monday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official website reports.

    Jean-Charles recorded one tackle in Saturday's 17-7 preseason loss to the Cowboys, but he is now set to miss the entirety of the 2026 season while recovering from an undisclosed injury. The cornerback will have to reach an injury settlement with the Seahawks in order to have a chance to play this year.
