The Broncos placed Krull on injured reserve Saturday due to a broken foot, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Krull suffered the injury in practice this week and will now miss at least the next four games, though his absence could extend beyond that. Krull has appeared in two games this season, securing two passes for 15 yards on four targets.

The Saints downgraded Ridgeway (shoulder) to out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Ridgeway remains on injured reserve, so his 2025 season debut will have to wait at least another week. His 21-day practice window was opened by New Orleans on Wednesday.

The Saints waived Matavao on Saturday.

New Orleans selected Matavao in the seventh round of the 2025 Draft, and he's appeared in three games this season. However, he's seen just 12 snaps on special teams.

The Saints placed Palmer (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.

Palmer has yet to play this season due to hamstring and ankle issues, and he's now going to be sidelined for at least the Saints' next four contests.

Nwangwu (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Nwangwu hasn't played since Week 1 and didn't practice this week, so it always seemed unlikely that he would face Dallas. Isaiah Davis figures to continue to fill in as an option on kickoff returns.

The Ravens elevated Huntley from the practice squad Saturday.

With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) ruled out, Huntley will operate as the Ravens' QB2 behind Cooper Rush on Sunday against Houston.

The Patriots activated Tavai (calf) from injured reserve Saturday.

Tavai remains questionable for Sunday night's duel with the Bills, but this at least gives him a chance to play against the AFC East rival. Tavai logged a career-high 115 tackles (58 solo) across 17 regular-season games in 2024.

The Cardinals activated Nichols (neck) off the reserve/PUP list Saturday.

Nichols has been sidelined since July but is now one step closer to returning. The 2018 fifth-round pick was a limited participant in all three of the team's practice sessions this week and is currently listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Titans. If Nichols ends up playing, he could start at defensive end, as Darius Robinson has already been ruled out with a pectoral injury.

Nabers will undergo surgery next week to repair a torn ACL and torn meniscus in his right knee, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Nabers tore both his ACL and meniscus during the second quarter of the Giants' Week 4 win over the Chargers. Schefter adds that the time off will allow Nabers to also recover from a partially torn labrum in his shoulder as well as a bout with turf toe, and the 2024 first-round pick is expected to return for the start of training camp in July. Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt and tight end Theo Johnson are expected to serve as the primary targets for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart in Nabers' absence.

Minnesota waived Ridder on Saturday.

Ridder joined the team in September after J.J. McCarthy suffered an ankle injury but didn't see any playing time. The Vikings are now left with Carson Wentz and Max Brosmer as the only healthy quarterbacks on their roster for Sunday's game versus the Browns.
