INJURED

Players on the short-term or season-ending injury list.

No players currently on the injured reserve.

Contract status compiled from public sources. Later seasons show contract control (Signed / RFA / UFA) rather than salary, which isn't disclosed beyond 2026-27. Rosters are 24 from 2026-27 with no reserve tier, and a contract written below the season's league minimum is shown at the minimum, which is what it pays.
