One surprising development from roster cuts was the placing of backup running back Isiah Pacheco on injured reserve, which will hold him out for at least four games. The news comes a week after Dan Campbell revealed Pacheco is dealing with a back injury. Holmes noted that the team is still excited to get him down the line, while not providing any sort of timeline. 'He's steadily feeling better, and he's doing everything that he can to get back, and we're excited to get him back when he's healthy,' Holmes said.

Pacheco on IR with back injury; expected to return this season after four games.

Running back Isiah Pacheco was placed on injured reserve with a back injury, sidelining him for at least four games. Holmes indicated Pacheco is 'steadily feeling better, and he's doing everything that he can to get back,' and when asked if the team expects him back this season, Holmes said 'Yes, that's the hope,' though he was somewhat ambiguous. The team delayed the IR placement decision by a few days based on information available at the time, but the move still allows Pacheco to return after the four-game minimum.
