The Colts placed Jones (Achilles) on injured reserve Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

Jones' move to IR was merely a formality after he suffered a season-ending right Achilles tendon rupture Sunday. Head coach Shane Steichen said Monday that Jones is scheduled to undergo surgery "within the week," and given the timing of the injury, the signal-caller will be hard pressed to return to full health in advance of Week 1 of the 2026 campaign. The former Giant had been in the midst of the most efficient season of his career while leading the Colts to a 8-5 record, completing 68.0 percent of his passes for 8.1 yards per attempt and a 19:8 TD:INT while adding 164 yards and five scores on the ground. The 28-year-old appeared to have put himself in position for a lucrative long-term deal with the Colts or another club in free agency this spring, but the Achilles injury could result in him having to settle for a smaller contract.

The Colts placed Lammons (foot) on injured reserve Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

Lammons suffered a foot injury against the Jaguars last Sunday and was unable to return to the game. The injury is severe enough to land the cornerback on IR, and he will be unable to return until a potential postseason game at the earliest. In corresponding moves, the Colts signed cornerback Cameron Mitchell to the 53-man roster and signed cornerback Troy Pride to the practice squad. Mitchell will likely replace Lammons, backing up Kenny Moore in the slot cornerback role.

The Raiders placed Kelly (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Kelly was carted off the field during last Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos. The cornerback suffered a severe knee injury in the first quarter of the game and was unable to return. Darien Porter will likely finish the season at outside cornerback opposite Eric Stokes in Kelly's absence.

The 49ers signed Baker to the practice squad Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

The 49ers will be the third practice squad Baker has visited this season after stops at both the Patriots and Eagles facilities. The wide receiver has yet to play in a game this season, but at 23 years old, he has a lot of potential as a depth wide receiver for what seems like a perennially banged-up 49ers offense.

Allen caught all three of his targets for 22 yards in the 22-19 overtime win over the Eagles on Monday.

The veteran led all Charger wideouts in receiving yards Monday, as quarterback Justin Herbert was under constant duress and got sacked seven times. Los Angeles' offensive line issues make it difficult for any pass catcher to maintain consistent fantasy value week to week, and that will likely be a problem in Week 15 as well against a feisty Kansas City defense.

The Titans placed Wilson (undisclosed) on the team's practice squad/injured list Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Wilson will now be ineligible for elevation to the active roster for the final four games of the season. In a corresponding move, the Titans signed free agent tight end Cole Turner to replace Wilson as an eligible depth tight end on the practice squad.

The Titans signed Turner to the practice squad Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The signing marks Turner's first contract of the regular season after he was waived by the Commanders on Aug. 26. The tight end will be a reserve piece for the Titans, being available for elevation to the active roster behind starters Gunnar Helm, Chig Okonkwo and David Martin-Robinson.

The Giants officially designated Green (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Green's 21-day practice window is now open, and if the Giants do not move him to the active roster in that span, he will need to remain on IR the rest of the season. The cornerback was unable to return to the Week 8 loss to the Eagles after suffering a hamstring injury on a special teams play. Green played 166 special teams snaps through eight games this season, logging six tackles (three solo) before succumbing to a hamstring injury. His return would give the Giants more depth on special teams as they close out the season.

Peat (concussion) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Dolphins, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Peat suffered a concussion against the Ravens in Week 14 and was unable to return to the game. The starting left tackle has entered the league's concussion protocol and will need to clear the five steps the league has in place to have a chance to suit up for Monday's game. The good news is that the long week gives the 11-year veteran a Saturday practice, maximizing his recovery potential before the game.

Anderson (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's game against the Dolphins, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Anderson has been available for just one game this season and will miss yet another contest in Week 15. As the lead depth option behind starting tackles Andrus Peat and Troy Fautanu, the 29-year-old cannot stay on the field as he battles a persistent knee injury. This absence may be more significant, as Peat (concussion) is also questionable for Monday's game.
