The Panthers announced Gonzalez won't play Sunday against the Bills after suffering a right quadriceps injury during warmups, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

The injury occurred when Gonzalez lost his footing on the field while attempting a kick. After Gonzalez was helped to the locker room, Carolina had a number of players take part in kickoffs for the remainder of warmups. Emergency placekicking duties could fall to punter Lachlan Edwards or backup quarterback P.J. Walker, who served as a kicker in high school. Most likely, though, the Panthers will likely eschew extra-point tries in favor of two-point attempts for any touchdowns they score during the afternoon.

Gonzalez required assistance off the field after he suffered an apparent leg injury during warmups prior to Sunday's game in Buffalo, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Though Gonzalez officially remains active for the contest, he looks like he could be at risk of not playing in the game after coming down with the injury. Carolina doesn't have any other placekickers on the roster, so the team will most likely turn to punter Lachlan Edwards to handle that role. Edwards' inexperience as a placekicker could prompt head coach Matt Rhule to forgo longer-range extra-point and field-goal attempts throughout the contest.

Folk (knee) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Colts.

Folk has been a mainstay on the injury report most of the season, but the veteran kicker has yet to miss a game. In the process, he has racked up a fantasy-friendly 128 points through 13 outings while working behind a 9-4 New England squad that has reeled off seven straight wins.

Elliott and the Eagles will no longer play Washington on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster.

Carlson and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Carlson and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the team's Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

McLaughlin and the Browns will no longer play the Raiders on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster.

Myers and the Seahawks will no longer play the Rams on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Rams organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, Los Angeles will be able to restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. After Tuesday's game, the Seahawks will face a quick turnaround for Week 16 with a Sunday matchup versus the Bears on Dec. 26.

Hopkins made all four extra-point attempts during Thursday's 34-28 overtime loss against the Chiefs.

Thursday marked Hopkins' second game of the season without a field-goal attempt. The 31-year-old kicker made all four of his extra-point opportunities, but Los Angeles elected to attempt multiple fourth-down conversions despite being well within field-goal range. Although Hopkins didn't receive any field-goal opportunities this week, the Chargers will face a struggling Texans defense in Week 16, which could make for a high-scoring outing for Hopkins.

Gay and the Rams will no longer play the Seahawks on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.

Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Rams organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, Los Angeles will be able to restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. After Tuesday's game, the Rams will face a quick turnaround for Week 16 with a Sunday game in Minnesota on Dec. 26.

Folk (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game at Indianapolis.

Folk has been a regular on the injury report this season, so it's not much of a surprise to see him take a designation into the weekend. The 37-year-old has yet to miss a game, and there's nothing yet to indicate that will change versus the Colts.
