8/24: Layden Robinson waived with an injury designation - Per the transaction wire.

Wake Forest linebacker Luke Masterson appeared with a "passed physical," designation but no transaction is shown for him being added - at least not yet. Mike Reiss reported that he was in on a visit, but nothing official about him being signed at this time.

An update on this:

Robinson appeared on the noon list of transactions today as a reserve list addition, with a "Reserve/Injured from Waived/Injured" designation without any designation to return. So it looks like he's been placed on injured reserve. Odd that there was such a lag in between the first move several days ago, but that's the update:

8/27: Layden Robinson Placed on Injured Reserve (No Designation to Return)

With Baker being waived yesterday, the belief is that he'll round out the final spot (at least if the reports are true, once he clears waivers). I'll update it as soon as it becomes official.

UPDATE: Charles Woods didn't initially appear, fixed the setting that prevented him from showing up.
