The Jets intend to place Allen (knee) on injured reserve Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Allen is recovering from an MCL sprain sustained in Monday's 27-21 loss to the Dolphins, and while a formal timeline for his return won't be established until a decision is made whether he'll require surgery, the 21-year-old will be sidelined for at least the Jets' next four games. New York could add another running back to its roster in a corresponding move when Allen is officially placed on IR, but as it stands, Isaiah Davis and Kene Nwangwu (hamstring) are the backfield options behind starter Breece Hall.

The Browns are expected to lean more on Judkins in Week 5 against the Vikings, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Cleveland's game against Minnesota on Sunday kicks off at 9:30 a.m. ET in London.

The Browns are switching quarterbacks this week with rookie Dillon Gabriel replacing Joe Flacco. The state of Cleveland's offense dictated the QB change, but the problems in the passing game still exist, which indicates a more conservative, run-focused game plan. Starting an untested rookie could result in a greater reliance on Judkins, whose snap count and workload increased each week since his debut in the second game of the season. He had a season-high 21 carries last week against the Lions and could see that number increase.

Irving officially missed Wednesday's walkthrough due to foot and shoulder injuries, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

After turning 20 touches into 165 yards from scrimmage and a receiving touchdown during Sunday's 31-25 loss to the Eagles, Irving was revealed to be one of numerous Buccaneers dealing with health concerns by coach Todd Bowles on Monday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported earlier Wednesday that Irving had a sprained foot that isn't considered to be a long-term concern, and he also was spotted with his left foot in a walking boot and on crutches at Wednesday's session, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports. Bowles then told Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site that Irving needs to shed the boot by Friday in order to have a chance to play Sunday at Seattle. If Irving is inhibited or sidelined this weekend, Rachaad White and Sean Tucker would be available to man Tampa Bay's backfield.

Herbert was cut from Seattle's practice squad Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Herbert was with Seattle's practice squad for a week, but he was let go when the team signed Myles Gaskin. Herbert appeared in 14 games with the Bengals and Bears in 2024, and he should land another opportunity elsewhere around the league.

Carter is positioned alongside Emari Demercado as one of Arizona's top backfield options with Trey Benson (knee) on IR and recovering from arthroscopic surgery, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Carter, who was signed to the active roster from the practice squad Monday, now has a significant backfield opportunity with Adam Schefter of ESPN reporting that Benson will miss 4-to-6 weeks and James Conner (foot) already out for the year. Head coach Jonathan Gannon said "we'll see how the week goes" when asked whether Carter or Demercado will start Sunday's matchup against the Titans, suggesting that reps remain up for grabs. Carter appeared in three regular-season games with the Cardinals in 2024, in which span he logged 35 carries for 131 yards (3.7 YPC) and one score, while securing all 11 of his targets for 57 yards. In theory, Carter projects more for early-down work while Demercado is more suited to a pass-catching role, but if either tailback demonstrates a hot hand he could secure the No. 1 gig until Benson returns.

Nwangwu (hamstring) was estimated as a non-practice participant on Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

The Jets did not hold a practice on Wednesday, so Nwangwu's lack of participation is an estimate. Nwangwu has missed the last three games. He played three snaps on special teams in Week 1, returning one kickoff for 33 yards.

Sanders (knee/ankle) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Sanders exited this past Sunday's tie with the Packers just before halftime due to an ankle injury, but coach Brian Schottenheimer told Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News on Monday that the running back was trending toward being able to play Week 5 at the Jets. On Wednesday, Sanders himself said he had an MRI on his right ankle, and the Cowboys will have a better idea of his upcoming availability, or lack thereof, if he's able to run by Friday, according to Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News. As such, Sanders' status will be monitored as the week goes on to see if he'll be able to continue in his complementary role behind Javonte Williams on Sunday.

Spears (ankle) was officially limited in Wednesday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The Titans officially moved Spears to the designated-to-return-to-practice list Wednesday, so it's unsurprising to see him with a cap on his activity level as he practices for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain in August. Per John Glennon of NashvillePost.com, Spears said he's taking it one day at a time in regards to the possibility of his playing Sunday against Arizona. Before being eligible to suit up, Tennessee will have to officially activate Spears from IR. At that point, he'll join Tony Pollard atop the team's backfield.

Goodson (groin) did not practice Wednesday.

Goodson missed the first two games of the season with an elbow injury but injured his groin in Week 4 against the Rams. Goodson has played a total of eight offensive snaps across two appearances, rushing twice for six yards while catching one pass for no gain.

Hubbard (calf) didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough.

Hubbard capped last week with two limited practices due to a calf injury before being listed as questionable ahead of a Week 4 matchup with the Patriots. He proceeded to be active but earned a season-low 51 percent snap share on his way to 13 touches for 69 yards from scrimmage. Coach Dave Canales told Steve Reed of the Associated Press on Wednesday that Hubbard requires more time this week to recover from the calf issue and is "day-to-day." As a result, Hubbard's status bears watching as the weekend draws closer to get a sense of his odds to suit up Sunday versus the Dolphins.
