Noel departed Sunday's game versus the Giants in the fourth quarter due to a toe injury.

On the heels of a 107-yard effort as a receiver in Week 6 against the Jaguars in London, Noel mustered just minus-3 yards on two catches before exiting Week 7 action early.

Melton (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Melton logged just one limited session during Week 7 prep. The wide receiver's Friday upgrade to limited after consecutive DNPs appears to have been enough to green-light the No. 4 option for Sunday's divisional bout with the Lions.

London (head) was cleared to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

London was being evaluated for a concussion in the blue medical tent. However, it was a short time on the sidelines for the star wide receiver, who was quickly cleared to return in the third quarter.

Nacua (calf) is active for Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Nacua's addition to the practice report Thursday due to a calf issue was more cause for concern for a roster riddled with injuries. While Nacua didn't practice Friday and was listed as questionable for Week 7, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Sunday morning that Rams are optimistic about Nacua's ability to play, and that now has been confirmed. Nacua could have his workload capped somewhat, but he'll be needed to power an air attack without Davante Adams (hamstring) for at least the next four contests. In his four appearances this season, Nacua has put together a 37-417-1 line on 52 targets.

Vele caught all five of his targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.

The third-year wideout was on the other end of Tyler Shough's only TD pass of the day, hauling in a one-yard toss in the second quarter for the Saints' final points. Vele tied his career high with his third touchdown of the season, and his 33-348-3 line on 48 targets through seven games has him tracking toward a career-best campaign heading into a Week 8 bye. His role could shrink significantly after the bye, however, if rookie Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is cleared to make his NFL debut.

Olave caught six of 10 targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.

While Olave saw a team-high 10 targets, Alvin Kamara caught one more pass and gained one more receiving yard for the team leads in those categories, while Devaughn Vele caught Tyler Shough's only TD. Olave has failed to reach 60 yards in three straight games after topping 100 in three of his first four contests this season, but he'll get a bye week to reset before facing the Browns in Week 9.

Metcalf two of six targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Saints.

The Steelers' offense mostly flowed through its backfield, and Metcalf's 56 receiving yards actually led the team despite the fact that his two catches were a season low. The veteran wideout's target volume has been erratic this year, but he remains Aaron Rodgers' top downfield option. Metcalf will take a 32-374-1 line on 58 targets through seven games into a Week 8 clash with the Browns, who he produced a 5-115-0 line against in Week 4.

Price (head) was back on the field for the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Colts, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Price was being evaluated by medical staff for a possible concussion, but he's been cleared to return to Sunday's contest. He'll see most of his playing time as a returner on special teams while operating in a rotational role on offense.

Price is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

Price appeared to sustain the injury while catching a punt in the first quarter, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Tai Felton could handle return duties on kickoffs and punts for as long as Price is out of the game.

Dell (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Dell is ready to take the field for the first time since Dec. 21, 2024, when he suffered a dislocated kneecap and multiple ligament tears in his left knee. The 2023 third-rounder established a role for himself in the offense before the injury, but he'll likely be eased into the workload in his first game in nearly two years. Dell figures to operate in a rotational role behind Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison and Jaylin Noel.
