Minor NFL Transactions: 1/7/26

Wednesday’s midweek minor moves:

Green Bay Packers

• Activated from IR: LB Nick Niemann
• Placed on IR: WR Bo Melton
• Reverted to season-ending reserve/PUP: G John Williams

Jacksonville Jaguars

• Reverted to season-ending IR: LB Jalen McLeod

Los Angeles Chargers

• Designated for return from IR: FB Tucker Fisk

San Francisco 49ers

• Signed from practice squad: LB Eric Kendricks
• Placed on IR: LB Tatum Bethune (story)

Seattle Seahawks

• Designated for return from IR: TE Elijah Arroyo

In Green Bay, head coach Matt LaFleur relayed that Melton doesn’t have a torn ACL, per Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, but his knee injury is just going to take some time to recover. Meanwhile the Chargers and Seahawks look to return to role players to offenses as they ready for their first playoff games.

The 21-day practice windows have come and gone for McLeod and Willams. Without an activation, both players will return to their respective injured lists.
