Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Conner (knee) will "miss some time," Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Conner had to leave Saturday's preseason contest against Denver after hurting his left knee. Gannon's comments Monday leave open the possibility that Conner may not be ready by Week 1 of the regular season, though that's not a certainty at this point. Regardless, it sounds like Conner will probably need to sit out Arizona's final preseason game Saturday versus the Raiders.

Anae (undisclosed) was released from injured reserve with an injury settlement by the 49ers on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The defensive end now has a chance to play in 2025 if he can catch on with another team, though his injury remains undisclosed. The 2020 fifth-round pick of the Cowboys last appeared in an NFL regular-season game in 2021. Anae has two career tackles across 11 regular-season contests.

Isaac needs surgery on the dislocated elbow he suffered during Saturday's preseason game against Dallas and is expected be placed on injured reserve after final roster cutdowns, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

The 2024 third-round pick out of Penn State will likely miss at least half of his second NFL season, per Zrebiec. As a rookie, Isaac only appeared in four games and on 30 defensive snaps due to injuries and coach's decisions. Even if he's able to return in 2025, the outside linebacker faces stiff competition for snaps in the form of Odafe Oweh, Kyle Van Noy and 2025 second-rounder Mike Green.

The Cowboys waived/injured Harmon (knee) on Monday.

Harmon hurt his knee during Saturday's exhibition game against Baltimore. He had signed with Dallas as an undrafted free agent in early May. If he goes unclaimed while on waivers, Harmon will revert to IR.

Jones (shoulder) is not expected to be ready in time for Baltimore's season opener Sept. 7 at Buffalo, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

The offensive guard missed OTAs after shoulder surgery and has yet to take the field during training camp. Jones was expected to compete for the starting right guard spot after going in the third round of April's draft, but now that position appears to belong to Daniel Faalele. It's possible that Jones could push Faalele upon his return, but his timetable for getting on the field remains unclear.

Armour-Davis didn't practice Monday due to an illness, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

It doesn't sound like Armour-Davis is dealing with anything serious, but it's unclear when he'll return to practice. The fourth-year cornerback missed some practices earlier in training camp due to an undisclosed injury, so it's good news that his current issue doesn't seem to be related. Armour-Davis will likely work primarily on special teams if he breaks camp on the Ravens' roster.

Tampa Bay placed Roberts (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Scott Smith of the team's official website reports.

Roberts hurt his knee last Thursday during a joint practice with the Steelers and will miss the entire 2025 campaign. The Marshall product went unselected in April's NFL Draft but had been impressing during training camp and had a legitimate chance of making the roster prior to getting hurt.

Iton (hip) was waived with an injury designation by the Patriots on Monday.

The defensive end will revert to New England's injured reserve list unless he's claimed by another team. Assuming he moves to IR, Iton will need to reach an injury settlement with the Pats to have a chance to play in 2025. The Rutgers product signed with New England in May after spending 2024 on Tennessee's practice squad.

The Jets placed Boyd (shoulder) on injured reserve Monday.

Boyd suffered a shoulder injury during practice in early August, and the issue is serious enough to result in the cornerback being placed on season-ending IR. After signing with New York in mid-March, Boyd had been slated to work as a backup in the secondary as well as serve as a core special-teamer.

Fisher didn't practice Monday because of an ankle sprain, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houstonreports.

Per Wilson, Fisher's injury is considered to be on the "milder side," but there's no clear timetable for his return. The 2024 second-round draft pick is likely to work in a rotational role along Houston's offensive line during the coming campaign.
