  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Torn ACL feared

    Nabers is believed to have suffered a torn ACL Sunday against the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Nabers has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest, with testing on his knee no doubt slated to occur. If the injury is as serious as feared, it would be a massive blow to the Giants' offense.

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Ruled out of Sunday's game

    Coach Brian Daboll said Nabers (knee) won't return to Sunday's contest against the Chargers, James Palmer of The Athletic reports.

    While attempting to make a leaping catch down the sideline in the second quarter, Nabers clutched at his knee and stayed on the turf before being carted to the locker room. The nature of the injury hasn't been revealed, but he'll finish Week 4 with two catches (on three targets) for 20 yards.

  • Darnell Mooney WR | NYG

    Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Hurts hamstring in Week 4

    Mooney injured his hamstring during Sunday's game versus the Commanders, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Prior to his exit just after halftime, Mooney had hauled in his only target for 16 yards. For as long as Mooney is sidelined, Ray-Ray McCloud, Casey Washington, David Sills and Jamal Agnew will be the healthy and available wide receivers for the Falcons that aren't named Drake London.

  • 49ers' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Not playing Week 4

    Valdes-Scantling (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Valdes-Scantling saw the field in each of the 49ers' first three games of the season. However, the veteran wide receiver will be in street clothes for Sunday's contest due to the return of Demarcus Robinson from suspension. Valdes-Scantling's next chance to play will be Thursday against the Rams.

  • 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Active in Week 4

    Pearsall (knee) is listed as active Sunday against the Jaguars, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

    A knee injury hampered Pearsall in practice during Week 4 prep, resulting in a DNP on Wednesday and limited sessions Thursday and Friday. On Wednesday, the second-year pro told Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area that he'd play that day if there was a game, and now that Sunday has arrived, he'll be out there as he normally is for the 49ers offense. Considering fellow WR Jauan Jennings (ankle/shoulder) reportedly will have his snaps monitored, per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Pearsall is lined up to be Brock Purdy's (left shoulder/toe) top pass catcher in the quarterback's return to action.

  • Dyami Brown WR | WAS

    Jaguars' Dyami Brown: Inactive Sunday

    Brown (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Brown, who exited the Jaguars' 17-10 win over the Texans in Week 3 after recording 23 snaps and two catches for seven yards on three targets, approached the contest listed as questionable after practicing in a limited fashion Thursday and Friday. In his absence Sunday, Brian Thomas, Travis Hunter and Parker Washington are on track to lead the Jaguars' wideout corps versus San Francisco, with Washington (who saw 11 targets in Week 3) representing a lineup pivot for those scrambling for help at the WR position in Week 4.

  • 49ers' Jauan Jennings: Returning to action Sunday

    Jennings (ankle/shoulder) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Jennings was gutting out a shoulder injury in the later stages of Week 1 and all of Week 2, but in the latter contest, he picked up an ankle injury that sidelined him Week 3 and didn't allow him to practice until Friday in a limited capacity. While he'll be available to the 49ers offense Sunday, there's an expectation that his snaps will be monitored, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. As a result, managers may want to pivot to a healthier option until Jennings is able to handle a typical workload, even with QB Brock Purdy (left shoulder/toe) back in action.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Rams' Davante Adams: Active against Colts

    Adams (hamstring) is active for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Colts, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    The veteran wideout was able to get in a limited practice Friday after sitting out the first two sessions of the week, and Adams has now validated head coach Sean McVay's optimism that he'd be able to suit up and fill his usual No. 2 role against Indianapolis. Adams thus has far proven an ideal complementary fit in the Rams' air attack alongside No. 1 receiver Puka Nacua, posting a 13-213-2 line on 29 targets through his first three contests.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Hurts hamstring Sunday

    Tillman won't return to Sunday's game against the Lions after sustaining a hamstring injury.

    Tillman approached the contest without an injury designation after being limited Wednesday and Thursday by listed hand and hip issues, so Sunday's hamstring injury is something new for the wideout. Prior to his exit, Tillman caught one of his two targets for six yards. In his absence, Isaiah Bond, Jamari Thrash and DeAndre Carter are available to handle WR snaps that don't go to Jerry Jeudy.

  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Gets carted off field

    Nabers was carted to the locker room due to an apparent right knee injury during Sunday's game against the Chargers, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

    Nabers stayed down on the ground while grabbing at his knee after he attempted to make a leaping grab down the sideline. Considering he needed a cart to leave the field, there's a decent chance his Week 4 is over.
