Joins Titans' active roster
Tennessee signed Bachie (foot) from the practice squad to the active roster Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Bachie suited up for five regular-season games with the Colts this year prior to being placed on IR and then cut with an injury settlement. Across that span, he racked up 26 tackles (11 solo) and one pass defensed. Now healthy, he'll be eligible to contribute as a member of Indianapolis' linebacker corps behind Cody Barton and Cedric Gray.

Cut loose by Colts
Indianapolis released Bachie (foot) from IR with an injury settlement Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Bachie played a key role for the Colts early in the campaign, racking up 26 tackles and one defensed pass while playing 157 defensive snaps over the team's first five games. However, he landed on IR due to a foot/toe issue Oct. 8 and has now parted ways with the club. It's unclear how much time Bachie will need to recover from the injury.

Shifts to IR
Bachie (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Prior to his injury, Bachie was one of the Colts' top reserve linebackers, recording 26 total tackles and one pass defended over 157 defensive snaps. He's now forced to miss at least Indianapolis' next four games, with his earliest possible return coming in the Week 10 matchup against the Falcons. While Bachie is sidelined, newly signed Germaine Pratt is likely to operate as the Colts' top reserve inside linebacker.

Struggles with penalities
Bachie had three total tackles and battled down a pass attempt in Sunday's win over Las Vegas. However, he committed three penalities and allowed receptions on both passes targeted at him, according to Pro Football Focus.
Analysis: Bachie played on just 19 of the team's 68 snaps on defense which may have been a byproduct of his mistakes, but also just to give him some rest amid a blowout win. He could be at risk of a downturn in playing time in Week 6 as a result of the miscues, however.

Six tackles in opener
Bachie started at linebacker opposite Zaire Franklin and had six total tackles in Sunday's win over Miami.
Analysis: Bachie is one of two linebackers on the field in Indy's base defense and played on 22 of the defense's 47 snaps. He'll likely come off the field in nickel and dime formations, which will limit his fantasy upside.

Wins starting LB role
Bachie looks set to start opposite Zaire Franklin at linebacker, The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Colts mostly use a two-linebacker formation, so Bachie will be a key defender in Indy's defensive scheme. He only started two games in his first five seasons. Segun Olubi and Cameron McGrone made the 53-man roster as backup linebackers.

Signs with Indianapolis
Bachie signed with the Colts on Wednesday, Joel Erickson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Bachie has seemingly recovered from the groin injury that landed him on Cincinnati's injured reserve last December and will now head to Indianapolis. The 27-year-old racked up three tackles (three solo) across 12 games during the 2024 campaign as he saw the majority of his playing time on special teams and will likely have a similar role with the Colts.

Out for rest of regular season
The Bengals placed Bachie (groin) on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Bachie suffered a groin injury against Dallas this past Monday, and head coach Zac Taylor said early this week he'd be out multiple games. That's now official, as Bachie will be required to sit out the remainder of the regular season while on IR. Bachie could theoretically return for the playoffs, but the Bengals are very unlikely to qualify given their current 5-8 record.

Out again Week 15
Bachie (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's tilt against Tennessee.
Analysis: Bachie hurt his groin on Monday Night Football against Dallas, and head coach Zac Taylor indicated Wednesday that the linebacker is facing a multi-game absence. As such, it's no surprise that Bachie has been deemed out ahead of Sunday's matchup. His absence will be felt primarily on special teams, as Bachie has logged just 33 defensive snaps over 12 games this season.

In line for multi-game absence
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said Wednesday that Bachie is dealing with an adductor injury and is expected to miss multiple games, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Bachie seems like a potential candidate for injured reserve after getting hurt in Monday's win over the Cowboys. The 26-year-old linebacker has seen most of his playing time on special teams this season while totaling three tackles over 12 games.

Injures groin on MNF
Bachie suffered a groin injury in Monday night's win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: A reserve linebacker and special-teams contributor, Bachie didn't record any stats in the box score prior to his injury in the second half. He'd previously been dealing with a hip injury in recent weeks.

Set for return Week 13
Bachie (hip) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.
Analysis: Bachie missed Cincinnati's Week 11 loss to the Chargers due to a hip issue, but the team's Week 12 bye gave him the time to recover enough to return to the field. The veteran linebacker's presence would typically primarily impact the special-teams unit, as Bachie has logged just 18 defensive snaps over 10 games this season. However, he could be asked to step into a more significant role Sunday if Logan Wilson, who is questionable due to a knee injury, is unable to suit up.

Won't suit up in Week 11
Bachie (hip) was downgraded to out for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
Analysis: Bachie was initially deemed doubtful heading into the weekend, but he has since been ruled out for Sunday's contest. He's played a rotational role on defense throughout the campaign, topping out at seven defense snaps Week 9. As such, Bachie's absence Sunday will primarily impact the Bengals' special-teams unit.

Doubtful for Sunday
Bachie (hip) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Bachie appears to have sustained a hip injury in Cincinnati's Week 10 loss to the Ravens, and he's likely a longshot to play Sunday after logging three consecutive DNPs during the Bengals' week of practice. Undrafted rookie Maema Njongmeta could see increased work on Cincinnati's defense as a rotational linebacker if Bachie is sidelined in Week 11 as expected.

Re-ups with Cincy
The Bengals re-signed Bachie to a one-year contract Monday.
Analysis: Bachie entered the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, but he's now set to return to Cincinnati for a fourth straight campaign. He contributed almost exclusively on special teams last year across 16 regular-season games.

Practices fully Tuesday
Bachie (oblique) was a full participant in Cincinnati's practice Tuesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Bachie returned to practice Tuesday after missing last week's victory over the Vikings due to an oblique injury. The 25-year-old is now trending toward playing versus the Steelers on Saturday where he should provide depth behind Logan Wilson.

Status for Saturday in question
Bachie (oblique) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: Bachie started the week with back-to-back DNPs, but he was able to get back on the field for a limited practice Thursday, bolstering his chances of suiting up for Week 15.

Makes final roster
Bachie survived roster cuts and made Cincinnati's final roster, Geoff Hobson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Bachie made the team's 53-man roster despite dealing with a chest injury throughout the preseason. The 25-year-old played in 10 games for the Bengals during the 2022 campaign, logging 10 tackles (four solo), and will look to provide depth again this season.

Questionable to return
Bachie is considered questionable to return to Friday's preseason contest against the Packers after suffering a chest injury.

Analysis: Bachie appeared in 10 games last year after missing the start of the season due to a knee injury. The 25-year-old was a regular piece of Cincinnati's special-teams unit, recording 10 tackles along the way. He'll work to earn a regular spot among the team's linebacker rotation in 2023.

Bachie (knee) was activated from the reserve/PUP list Saturday.
Analysis: Bachie was placed on the PUP list after suffering a knee injury in late July. He's practiced for the entire week leading up to Cincinnati's Week 7 matchup against the Falcons and is likely to serve as a rotational linebacker and key special teamer.

Shifts to reserve/PUP list
The Bengals placed Bachie (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.
Analysis: Bachie started training camp on the active/PUP list, and with the move to the reserve list, he'll be forced to miss at least the first four games of the regular season. The 24-year-old cornerback tore his ACL in December last year but still signed a one-year extension with Cincinnati this offseason after posting 30 tackles over nine games in 2021.

Placed on PUP list
Bachie (knee) was added to the active/PUP list by the Bengals on Saturday.
Analysis: Bachie is eligible to return from this list and practice at any point before the regular season, but he is first required to pass a physical with Cincinnati's medical staff. The linebacker is still recovering from a torn ACL suffered in Week 15 of last season, so it is likely that he'll continue to rehab throughout the course of the Bengals' training camp. Bachie recorded 30 tackles over nine games while almost perfectly splitting his snaps played between defense (156) and special teams (147)…read more
