  • Zack Moss RB | CIN

    Colts' Zack Moss: True game-time decision

    Moss (elbow/heel), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, will see how his foot feels during pregame warmups before the Colts make a determination on his status, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Moss failed to practice Wednesday and Friday while turning in a limited session Thursday. Of the two injuries, his heel seems to be the bigger issue, as Schefter specifically noted that Moss wants to see how his foot feels when pushing off. Moss's status is particularly noteworthy to Jonathan Taylor, who could see his first full workload of the campaign if Moss is inactive.

  • Jordan Wilkins RB | CLE

    Browns' Jordan Wilkins: Promoted to active roster

    The Browns elevated Wilkins to the active roster Saturday.

    Wilkins' elevation comes with Jerome Ford (ankle) listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks. Wilkins signed with the Browns' practice squad Tuesday after being let go by the team at the end of training camp ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. If Ford is unable to suit up versus Seattle, Wilkins should slot into a depth backfield role behind Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong.

  • Derrick Henry RB | BAL

    Titans' Derrick Henry: Unlikely to be traded

    The Titans have told Henry he won't be dealt prior to the NFL trade deadline Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    The Titans have reportedly received calls from teams around the league inquiring about Henry's availability. It could make sense for Tennessee to deal him considering its 2-4 record and the fact that Henry is in the final year of his contract. For now, however, it appears he won't be on the move, though nothing will be official until the trade deadline has passed Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.

  • Giants' Gary Brightwell: Headed to IR

    The Giants placed Brightwell (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

    Brightwell sustained a hamstring injury in Week 7 against the Commanders. He'll now have to sit out for at least the next four games and will be eligible to return against the Patriots on Nov. 26. Jashaun Corbin and Deon Jackson are set to take on backfield depth roles behind Saquon Barkley and Matt Breida.

  • Kene Nwangwu RB | NYJ

    Vikings' Kene Nwangwu: Ruled out for Week 8

    Nwangwu (illness) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

    Nwangwu returned from injured reserve Oct. 18 and made his 2023 debut in Week 7 against the 49ers. His return has been short-lived, though, as he was unable to practice Friday due to an illness. With Nwangwu out for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Packers, Ty Chandler is the most likely candidate to take over kick return duties.

  • Owen Wright RB | HOU

    Ravens' Owen Wright: Promoted from practice squad

    The Ravens elevated Wright to the active roster Saturday.

    Wright was cut by the Ravens ahead of the 53-man roster deadline at the end of training camp, but he elected to join the team's practice squad Aug. 31. The move could be a precautionary one with Keaton Mitchell (hamstring) listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Cardinals.

  • Cardinals' Damien Williams: Elevated for third straight week

    The Cardinals elevated Williams to the active roster Saturday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Williams joined the Cardinals' practice squad Oct. 5 after being let go by the Raiders during training camp. He's been promoted and played in each of the last two games as a depth running back behind Keaontay Ingram and Emari Demercado, with James Conner (knee) on injured reserve since Oct. 10. Since this is the third time Williams has been elevated this season, the Cardinals would need to sign him to their active roster if they want to continue to play him for the rest of 2023.

  • Titans' Jonathan Ward: Moved up from practice squad

    The Titans elevated Ward to the active roster Saturday, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

    Ward rejoined the Titans on their practice squad Tuesday after reaching an injury settlement with the team Aug. 30. He split time last season between the Cardinals and Titans and played mostly on special teams over eight games, though he did rush for 25 yards on five carries while adding two catches for seven yards.

  • Lions' David Montgomery: Unsurprisingly ruled out

    Montgomery (ribs) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Raiders.

    It never seemed possible Montgomery would play prior to the team's Week 9 bye, especially given the severity of the rib cartilage issue. In Montgomery's two absences this season, Jahmyr Gibbs has tallied 148 rushing yards on 28 carries to go along with 16 receptions for 97 yards and one touchdown. Expect the rookie and Craig Reynolds to get a heavy workload against a vulnerable Raiders defense.

  • Bills' Latavius Murray: Limited usage in Week 8 win

    Murray carried five times for seven yards and caught his only target for four yards in Thursday's 24-18 win over Tampa Bay.

    Murray actually had two good cracks to score a touchdown, but he was stopped both times inside the five-yard line and his night ended as a fantasy dud. Murray has seen a slight rise in carries following a neck injury to teammate Damien Harris (neck), as he's had three of his season's top four offensive snap shares in the last three games. With the Bills having so many weapons on offense, the 33-year-old Murray remains mostly a touchdown-dependent option, and he hasn't found the end zone since Week 3.
