  • Chiefs' Matt Waletzko: Reverts to Chiefs' IR

    Waletzko (undisclosed) reverted from waivers to Kansas City's injured reserve list Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Waletzko did not get claimed after the Chiefs waived him with an undisclosed injury Thursday, and he's now in line to spend the entire 2026 on IR. He last suited up for a regular-season contest back in 2024 with the Cowboys.

  • Matt Waletzko: Waived with injury designation

    The Chiefs waived Waletzko (undisclosed) with an injury designation Thursday, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

    Waletzko played 17 offensive snaps in last week's preseason opener but will now head to the Chiefs' injured-reserve list once he clears waivers. He'll either spend the 2026 campaign there or will be let go with an injury settlement at a later date.

  • Matt Waletzko: Gets look from Indy

    The Colts hosted Waletzko (ankle) for a workout Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Waletzko reached an injury settlement with the Cowboys in early August due to an ankle injury, but his workout with the Colts on Tuesday indicates he is past the issue. He has played in 11 regular-season games since being selected by Dallas in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, though he has not started in any of those contests.

  • Matt Waletzko: Let go by Dallas

    The Cowboys waived Waletzko (ankle) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Waletzko was set to miss the entire 2025 season after reverting to the Cowboys' IR, but the injury settlement will allow him to sign with another team once he's fully healthy. He is currently working through an ankle injury, and injuries have limited the 2022 fifth-rounder to just 11 regular-season games since entering the league.

  • Cowboys' Matt Waletzko: Reverts to IR

    Waletzko (ankle) reverted to injured reserve with the Cowboys on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Waletzko was waived with an injury designation by Dallas on Saturday after suffering an ankle injury, but he went unclaimed, ultimately returning to the team's IR. If the offensive lineman wants to play in 2025, he'll have to come to an agreement on an injury settlement with the Cowboys. Otherwise, he'll remain on IR until the end of the season.

  • Cowboys' Matt Waletzko: Let go by Dallas

    Waletzko (ankle) was waived with an injury designation Saturday.

    Waletzko will go through waivers, and he will revert to injured reserve if he goes unclaimed. He has struggled with injuries throughout his career and has appeared in just 11 games since entering the league in 2022.

  • Cowboys' Matt Waletzko: Comes off IR

    Dallas activated Waletzko (shoulder) from its injured reserve list Wednesday.

    The transaction puts Waletzko on pace to be available for Saturday's game versus the Lions. With starting left tackle Tyron Smith dealing with a back injury, the Cowboys' depth on the offensive line could be tested in Week 17.

  • Cowboys' Matt Waletzko: Coming off IR

    Waletzko (shoulder) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and has returned to practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Waletzko has yet to play this season, so he may need every bit of his 21-day window to practice with the team before joining the 53-man roster. Once he proves himself healthy enough to play, he should bolster the Cowboys' depth on the offensive line.

  • Cowboys' Matt Waletzko: Placed on IR

    Dallas placed Waletzko (undisclosed) on injured reserve Thursday, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Since Waletzko was placed on injured reserve after Tuesday's 53-man roster deadline, he'll be eligible to return after sitting out a minimum of four games. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but when available, the 2022 fifth-round pick will compete for the swing tackle spot behind Tyron Smith and Terence Steele.
