"He earned a starting role with his new team, but after his first game for the Cardinals, he was placed on season-ending injured reserve with a bicep injury. He worked his way back to health and started 15 of 17 game appearances last year, but his struggles on the line led to a reunion with Calais Campbell and the drafting of Walter Nolen in the first round."
"He was working as a depth piece before getting placed on IR back in September, and if he can get back to the active roster, he'll add to line's depth, once again. As a rookie, Verdon was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list to start the season. The undrafted linebacker had been designated to return from the reserve/NFI list, but now that his 21-day practice window has come and gone without an activation, he moves to IR."
"Dickerson in Duval and Pettis in New Orleans had both used up their three standard practice squad gameday elevations. If their respective teams wanted to see them play in any more games this season, a move to the 53-man roster was necessary."
Multiple NFL teams made midweek minor roster moves involving signings, injured reserve placements, practice-squad changes, and roster-status updates. Teams affected include the Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals, Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Minnesota Vikings, New Orleans Saints, New York Jets, and Pittsburgh Steelers. Collier signed with Arizona after injuries and a failed tenure in Seattle, earned a starting role, then hit season-ending injured reserve and later struggled enough to prompt additions and a recent IR placement. Rookie Verdon moved from reserve/non-football injury status to injured reserve after his practice window expired. Dickerson and Pettis exhausted standard practice-squad elevations and require 53-man roster moves to play further.
