Center Hroniss Grasu was placed on injured/reserve on Tuesday.

Grasu sustained a torn ACL Aug. 8 during the Family Fest practice at Soldier Field. Shaw suffered a serious leg injury late in Saturday's preseason loss to the Chiefs. Robertson-Harris has missed several practices due to an undisclosed illness.
