The Jaguars placed Mustipher (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday.

It's unclear when he sustained the injury or what the nature of it is, but Mustipher may need to shift his focus toward being fully healthy for the 2027 campaign.

The Chargers placed World (knee) on the reserve/non-football injury list Sunday.

The undrafted free agent out of Oregon tore the ACL in his left knee on Jan. 9. World will now need to miss at least the first four games of the regular season on the reserve/NFI list before he is eligible to return to the active roster.

Gargiulo (knee) was moved to the reserve/PUP list by the Broncos on Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

The offensive guard began camp on the active/PUP list and was never activated, prompting the move to reserve/PUP for the start of the regular season. Now, Gargiulo will have to miss at least the first four games of the 2026 campaign. The 2024 seventh-round pick should play a backup role once he's able to return.

The Jaguars placed Mekari (back) on injured reserve with a designation to return Sunday.

Mekari will be required to miss at least the first four games of the regular season, meaning Week 5 against the Eagles on Sunday, Oct. 11 is the earliest he can play. The California product is recovering from back surgery that he underwent in mid-August. Ezra Cleveland is in line to start at right guard for as long as Mekari is out of action.

Crum (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return by the Broncos on Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

The offensive tackle can return for Denver's Week 5 matchup with the Chargers at the earliest. Crum suffered a leg injury during the Broncos' second preseason against the Packers and missed the last week of training camp. The third-year pro projects as a depth tackle even when healthy.

The Packers moved Riley (Achilles) from the active/PUP list to the reserve/PUP list on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

Riley suffered a torn Achilles tendon in Week 17 of the 2025 regular season. The defensive tackle will continue to work his way back from the issue through the beginning of the 2026 regular season. Even if Riley quickly regains his health, the 28-year-old must miss the first four weeks of the season on the reserve/PUP list before becoming eligible to return to the active roster.

The Texans placed Gaye (knee) on injured reserve Sunday.

Gaye suffered a severe knee injury during the Texans' joint practice against the Panthers this past Wednesday. He will likely shift his attention toward being fully healthy for the 2027 campaign.

The Lions moved Manu (knee) to the reserve/non-football injury list Sunday.

Manu continues to recover from a knee injury he sustained in October of 2025. He's required to miss at least the first four games of the regular season, meaning the earliest he can return is Week 5 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 11.

The Bears placed Fields (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday with a designation to return.

Fields is set to be the primary backup edge rusher for the Bears in 2026. The linebacker signed with the Bears in June after being out of the league in 2025. As a result of Sunday's transaction, Fields will now need to wait at least another four regular-season games to see any game action.

Green Bay reverted Yassmin (undisclosed) to injured reserve Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Yassmin was waived/injured Sunday and went unclaimed on waivers. The Australian tight end has yet to play in an NFL game and will miss the entire 2026 season while on IR unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Packers.
