Morris was signed to the Jaguars' active roster Monday.

Morris will officially join the Jaguars' active roster after he had already exhausted his three elevations from the practice squad. The tight end has played in each of Jacksonville's last three games, failing to record any stats while operating almost exclusively as a special-teams option.

The 49ers opened Mustapha's (knee) 21-day practice window to return from the reserve/PUP list.

Mustapha is ready to take the next step in his recovery from a knee injury that he suffered in January, which caused him to open the 2025 regular season on the PUP list. Mustapha will return to practice this week and could be reinstated from the PUP list ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, though that will depend on his participation level in practice. The 2024 fourth-rounder logged 72 tackles (32 solo) and five pass defenses (including one interception) across 16 regular-season games during his rookie season.

Phillips (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Phillips recorded three solo tackles while playing 40 defensive snaps in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Saints, and he may have left the contest a little worse for wear. The cornerback will have two more chances to log a full practice before Thursday's matchup with the Eagles at home.

Nubin (groin) was considered a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Nubin was able to play through a groin issue in Week 5, recording five total tackles (four solo), while playing all 62 of the team's defensive snaps in their 26-14 loss to the Saints. Nubin will have two more opportunities to record a full practice prior to Thursday night's contest versus the Eagles.

Holland (calf) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Holland was able to play in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Saints, recording two solo tackles and a pass defensed, while being on the field for all 62 of the team's defensive snaps. He'll have two more chances to increase his participation at practice prior to Thursday night's matchup with the Eagles.

Head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Eichenberg (undisclosed) still needs "several weeks" to return from his injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Eichenberg missed all of training camp due to an undisclosed injury, which led to the Dolphins moving the fifth-year offensive lineman to the reserve/PUP list in late August. The nature of his injury hasn't been disclosed, but it appears Eichenberg will not see the field until late in the 2025 season, if at all.

The Broncos are planning to place Powers (biceps) on injured reserve, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Powers tore his left biceps in Denver's Week 5 win over the Eagles and had surgery Monday to repair the damage. He's expected to miss two months and will be placed on injured reserve, though the move is not yet official. Powers' absence will leave a key void along the interior of the Broncos' offensive line.

Woolen is in concussion protocol but working through it quickly, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Woolen suffered a concussion in Sunday's 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers, but head coach Mike McDonald is "hopeful" that the cornerback will be able to practice in some capacity Wednesday. Woolen will have three chances to practice this week prior to the team's Week 6 matchup with the Jaguars.

Per head coach Mike McDaniel on Monday, Jackson (toe) is still weeks away from returning from injured reserve, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Jackson aggravated a toe injury during Miami's Week 1 loss to Indianapolis. The injury was severe enough for him to be placed on IR, and the 2020 first-rounder may not return to action until late in the season. Larry Borom will continue to start at right tackle for as long as Jackson is sidelined.

Norman-Lott (shoulder) is inactive for Monday night's contest in Jacksonville, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Norman-Lott suffered a shoulder injury in practice Friday, and he will now be forced to miss his second contest of the year, previously sitting out Week 1 with an ankle issue. In his absence, Jerry Tillery and Derrick Nnadi will stand to see an increase in workload at defensive tackle alongside Chris Jones versus the Jaguars.
