Minor NFL Transactions: 1/13/24
Today’s transactions and callups for the Saturday night and Sunday games:
Dallas Cowboys
- Elevated: LB Malik Jefferson, LB Buddy Johnson
Green Bay Packers
- Elevated: CB David Long
Kansas City Chiefs
- Elevated: NT Mike Pennel, CB Keith Taylor
Los Angeles Rams
- Elevated: LB Olakunle Fatukasi
Miami Dolphins
- Elevated: CB Ethan Bonner, LB Malik Reed
The three-game limit for practice squad players to be elevated under a single contract is reset in the playoffs, allowing players who weren’t able to be activated anymore by the end of the year to return in the coming weeks.
Packers starting cornerback Jaire Alexander injured his ankle this week in practice, leading to his current questionable status. Long will be elevated to provide some depth in the off chance that Alexander is unable to go versus the Cowboys.

Placed on PUP:
Placed on IR:
Austin Corbett continues to rehab from a torn ACL and has been sitting on PUP throughout the preseason. The transaction means the starting guard can’t be activated to the active roster until Week 5, but he may need longer to get into form. NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe tweets that the team is hoping to have him back midway through the season. Rookie Chandler Zavala will likely slide into the starting lineup while Corbett is sidelined.
Eric Rowe has 100 games of experience in stints with the Eagles, Patriots, and Dolphins. He’s spent the past four seasons in Miami, starting 39 of his 63 appearances. This included a 2022 campaign where he got into 14 games (six starts), finishing with 56 tackles and a pair of sacks. The two-time Super Bowl champ joined the Panthers back in April.
