It is also worth noting that linebacker Ben Gedeon was still on the PUP list at the time of the roster registration deadline. As a result, he made it to the PUP reserve list for the regular season, which means that he will miss at least the first six games of the regular season.
Injured List (IR) includes DE Kenny Willekes and LB Cameron Smith. And by agreement with the NFL league, DT Michael Pierce is missing this season.
