Chicago Bears practice squad S Marqui Christian was signed to the New York Jets 53-man roster Wednesday, Sept. 23. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

San Francisco 49ers QB Nick Mullens is likely to start in place of QB Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) in Week 3.

Footballguys View: No surprise here. Mullens is a quarterback the team has believed in for some time. He’s a good game manager who can run the system as designed. The 49ers have been ravaged by injuries on both sides of the ball, so Mullens isn’t a great fantasy option …even in start-2QB leagues.

San Francisco 49ers RB Tevin Coleman (knee) is likely headed to the Reserve/Injured list with a knee injury that’s likely to keep him out for four weeks, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Footballguys View: Coleman is banged up and so is lead back Raheem Mostert. That means the 49ers will lean on Jerick McKinnon and Jeffery Wilson in Week 3 against the Giants.

Carolina Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Sept. 23.
