Oliver (hamstring) had his practice window opened Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Oliver has been sidelined since suffering a hamstring injury during training camp, and the team will now have 21 days to activate him from the reserve/PUP list, or he'll remain sidelined for the rest of the year. The defensive end has yet to make his professional debut after being selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Martin needs surgery to repair his ACL and will miss the remainder of the 2025 campaign, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Martin was elevated from the practice squad each of the past three weeks and tallied 34 special-teams snaps for the Ravens during that span, recording five tackles. However, it appears he tore his ACL on Thanksgiving against Cincinnati, and he will thus see his campaign come to a close. The typical recovery time from ACL surgery is at least nine months, so Martin may not be ready for training camp next year.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Monday that Bartch will be placed on injured deserve after spraining his foot during the 49ers' 26-8 win over the Browns on Sunday, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.

A stint on injured reserve requires a player to miss at least the next four games. With the 49ers on a bye Week 14, Bartch wouldn't be eligible to be activated from IR until the playoffs, assuming San Francisco qualifies for the postseason. Spencer Burford is slated to start at left guard for at least the rest of the regular season in Bartch's absence.

Cox (groin) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Cox has been sidelined since suffering a groin injury in the team's Week 1 win over the Lions, but he's now geared up to make his return to the practice field. The Packers will now have a 21-day window to activate the 25-year-old or he'll remain on IR for the rest of the year.

Guyton (ankle) did not participate in Monday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Guyton was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain following the Cowboys' Week 12 overtime win over the Eagles. The injury prevented him from playing against the Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day, and the second-year offensive lineman faces an uphill battle to be cleared to play Thursday against the Lions. Nate Thomas would be slated to start at left tackle for a second consecutive game if Guyton is ruled out.

Jennings is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Giants due to a head injury, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

The type of injury was initially unclear, but Jennings was spotted walking from the medical tent to the locker room early in the second quarter. If he ultimately is ruled out, TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson will be the only active and healthy backs for New England.

Glasgow (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice report.

A knee injury prevented Glasgow from playing in the Lions' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Packers. He'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury tag for Thursday's game against the Cowboys. Trystan Colon would get a second straight start at center if Glasgow is unable to play.

Brandel is in concussion protocol but was symptom-free Monday, Emily Leiker of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Brandel appears to have suffered a concussion in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks, and he will have to clear concussion protocol in order to be available for the team's matchup with Washington in Week 14. With Ryan Kelly (hip) also banged up, Minnesota could be thin in the interior of the offensive line against the Commanders.

The NFL lifted Moehrig's one-game suspension Monday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Moehrig was suspended by the league for one game for unsportsmanlike conduct during the Panthers' Week 12 loss to the 49ers. His suspension caused him to be sidelined for the Panthers' 31-28 win over the Rams in Week 13, and his return means Lathan Ransom (thumb) will likely revert to a rotational role in the secondary for Carolina's Week 14 clash against New Orleans this Sunday.

Bethune (ankle) is closing in on a return to action, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Bethune has missed the team's last two contests while nursing a high-ankle sprain, and head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that the linebacker has "a chance" to play in Week 15 against the Titans following the team's bye week in Week 14. With Fred Warner (ankle) done for season, Bethune has taken over as the team's starting middle linebacker, so his return will be rather significant for San Francisco.
