The Eagles are quite healthy heading into their Week 4 game in Denver. The lone injured player on their inactive list is free safety Patrick Chung.

The others are quarterback Matt Barkley, tight end Emil Igwenagu, tackle Dennis Kelly, cornerback Shaun Prater, defensive tackle Damion Square and tackle Matt Tobin.

Making his season debut after missing the first three games with a calf injury, Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis didn't last long Week 4 against the Colts, leaving in the first quarter with continued soreness in the calf. He did not receive a target before leaving.

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been ruled inactive for the Week 4 home game versus the Giants Sunday. Kelce is dealing with a knee injury and was ruled out on Friday's injury report. Kelce has played in only one game this year and has yet to make a catch for Kansas City. 

Players listed as probable on the Texans injury report are active Week 4 against the Seahawks.

LB Brian Cushing, TE Owen Daniels, RB Arian Foster, TE Garrett Graham, CB Brice McCain, C Chris Myers, T Derek Newton, S Eddie Pleasant, WR DeVier Posey, S Ed Reed, QB Matt Schaub, G Wade Smith and RB Ben Tate will give it a go against Seattle. 

Many of the players who were probable are key starters, and were not expected to miss the game.

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis is active and will make his season debut Week 4 against the Colts. Lewis missed the first three weeks with a calf injury.

Lewis will be working with quarterback Blaine Gabbert, who is also returning from injury. He averaged 2.9 catches for 27.4 yards with four touchdowns in the 10 games Gabbert started last season.

Texans tight ends Garrett Graham (hip, groin) and Owen Daniels (knee) find themselves on the injury report for Week 4 against the Seahawks yet again Friday, but there is little risk of either missing time. Both are considered probable for Sunday's game, after playing through these injuries in Week 4. 

It appears that Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis will finally make his 2013 debut Sunday against Indianapolis. He is listed as probable for the game after missing the first three weeks with a calf injury.

Lewis practiced on a limited basis all week. He has caught at least 32 passes and gained at least 460 yards through the air in each of the last five seasons.

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis was able to practice Thursday, though he was still limited by a lingering calf injury. Lewis has yet to play this season as a result of the injury, and his status for Week 4 against the Colts has yet to be determined. 

Lions tight end Brandon Pettigrew could struggle Week 4 against the Bears.

Pettigrew hasn't been much of a threat for Detroit thus far, catching just 5 passes for 38 yards. With Reggie Bush in town, the team has used their running backs on short passes, minimizing Pettigrew's value. 

The Bears have been about average against tight ends, but have done a good job keeping them out of the end zone. In eight games against the Bears, Pettigrew has 1 touchdown.

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis (calf) was limited in practice Wednesday as the team prepares for Week 4 vs. Indianapolis. However, coach Gus Bradley said the plan is for Lewis to practice in full Thursday.
