  • 49ers' Isaac Guerendo: No touches on 13 snaps

    Guerendo (groin) suited up for Monday's season opener against the Jets but did not record a touch in a 32-19 win.

    Guerendo made the 49ers' 53-man roster but was battling a groin injury heading into Week 1. The fourth-round pick out of Louisville got the green light and wound up logging 10 snaps on special teams and three on offense. Starter Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) did not suit up for this contest, allowing Jordan Mason (28-147-1) to go off against the Jets. Guerendo appears to be next in line should San Francisco need a runner behind CMC or Mason this season.

  • La'Mical Perine: Loses his spot

    Perine was cut from the Packers' practice squad Tuesday.

    Perine signed with Green Bay's practice squad Aug. 30 after he was waived by the Steelers during roster cuts. The Florida product has seen action with the Jets in the past and most recently with the Chiefs for five regular-season games in 2023, where he had 77 yards on 22 carries and three receptions for 33 yards.

  • De'Von Achane RB | MIA

    Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Sits out walk-through practice

    Achane (ankle) was listed as a non-participant Tuesday in the Dolphins' walk-through practice, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    Miami has listed Achane as a non-participant in both of its first two Week 2 injury reports, though the team hasn't held a formal practice session following Sunday's 20-17 win over the Jaguars. Achane carried 10 times for 24 yards and a touchdown to go with seven catches for 76 yards over his 35 snaps in the victory, so the Dolphins may be keen on building in some rest for him coming off the busy Week 1 performance. Head coach Mike McDaniel hasn't indicated that Achane's listed ankle issue is anything worrisome, though the second-year back may need to log some listed practice activity Wednesday to avoid taking a designation into Thursday's matchup with the Bills.

  • Dolphins' Raheem Mostert: Sits out Tuesday's walk-through

    Mostert (chest) was listed as a non-participant during Tuesday's walk-through practice, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    The Dolphins have labeled Mostert as a non-participant on both of their first two Week 2 injury reports after he logged 28 snaps and carried six times for nine yards while adding two receptions for 10 yards on three targets in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Jaguars. While the team hasn't suggested that Mostert's injury is a major concern, he may need to get in some listed practice activity Wednesday to avoid carrying an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Bills.

  • Jeff Wilson RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jeff Wilson: Involved in rotation Week 1

    Wilson rushed five times for 26 yards during the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Wilson finished third in terms of carries behind De'Von Achane (ankle) and Raheem Mostert (chest) in Week 1, but he led Miami's backfield in rushing yards. Achane and Mostert are both nursing injuries heading into a Thursday night divisional matchup against the Bills, so there's a chance Wilson tends to a more significant workload Week 2. Rookie fourth-round pick Jaylen Wright could also get a chance to make his NFL debut if one or more of Miami's backfield starters is limited or inactive Thursday.

  • Blake Corum RB | LAR

    Rams' Blake Corum: Minimal involvement in Week 1 loss

    Corum did not play a single offensive snap during the Rams' 26-20 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday night. He did see nine snaps on special teams.

    Corum wasn't involved on offense behind Kyren Williams, who played 91 percent of offensive snaps, and Ronnie Rivers, who saw nine percent of offensive snaps as the No. 2 running back. As the season progresses Corum, a rookie third-round pick, could usurp Rivers for the backup role, but Williams looks firmly cemented as Los Angeles' featured rusher. Despite the fact that Corum was listed as the Rams' top kick returner, those duties were handled by Jordan Whittington in Week 1. Corum will look to improve his involvement Sunday on the road against Arizona.

  • Mike Boone RB | MIA

    Panthers' Mike Boone: Signs to active roster

    The Panthers are slated to sign Boone to the 53-man roster from the practice squad Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Boone had been elevated from the practice squad against the Saints in Week 1. He only took four carries for seven yards in the blowout loss (on five offensive snaps), but also played 68 percent of snaps on special teams. Boone figures to reprise a similar depth role against the Chargers on Sunday.

  • 49ers' Christian McCaffrey: Deemed day-to-day

    San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan labeled McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) as day-to-day heading into Sunday's game against the Vikings, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Though McCaffrey was listed as questionable for the 49ers' Week 1 game against the Jets on Monday, multiple reports prior to the contest suggested that the star tailback would play before he ended up being a surprise inactive. According to Clayton Holloway of NFL Network, Shanahan said that he believes McCaffrey would have suited up if the 49ers were playing a playoff game, but he sat out the Week 1 contest to afford himself more time to heal up from the lower leg injury that he's been tending to for more than a month. Shanahan noted that Achilles tendinitis rather than the calf strain is the main concern for McCaffrey at this time, so the 49ers will wait and see how the 28-year-old responds to practice activity this week before a decision on his status is made for Sunday's game.

  • Ty Johnson RB | BUF

    Bills' Ty Johnson: Set for limited practice

    Johnson (knee) will be a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Johnson was forced out of Sunday's 34-28 win over the Cardinals due to the knee injury, though his ability to practice in some fashion two days later suggests he's not dealing with a major injury. However, with the Bills facing a quick turnaround for Week 2 with a Thursday night game against the Dolphins, it's unclear if Johnson will heal quickly enough to make himself available. If Johnson is inactive Thursday, rookie Ray Davis could notice a slight uptick in snaps as the clear No. 2 option behind lead back James Cook.

  • Ameer Abdullah RB | IND

    Raiders' Ameer Abdullah: Special teams role in season opener

    Abdullah played 14 snaps on special teams in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Chargers, returning one kickoff for 28 yards.

    Abdullah was not involved in the Raiders' offensive game plan during the season opener, while fellow running backs Zamir White and Alexander Mattison combined for 108 total yards and a receiving score on 24 touches. Mattison alone was targeted six times by quarterback Gardner Minshew, and Abdullah figures to cede passing down work to Mattison again Week 2 versus the Ravens.
