Young (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Dolphins.

Young will miss a second consecutive contest. However, with Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) and Tee Higgins (groin/neck) active, Young likely wouldn't have seen much attention from Joe Burrow even if he were available.

Allen (coach's decision) is listed as a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Allen was claimed by Miami off the waivers Friday and will be unavailable for the team in Week 5. Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright (foot) are expected to lead the Dolphins' backfield.

Shepherd (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Shepherd will not suit up for Sunday's game due to an illness he contracted earlier in the week. The starting nose tackle for Sunday's contest will likely be Davon Godchaux.

Blackmon (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Blackman logged three consecutive limited practices during the Saints' Week 5 prep and was declared questionable for Sunday's contest. The free safety is all set to suit up against the Vikings, leaving Jonas Sanker to remain in the backup role.

Sewell (Achilles) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Sewell was activated from the reserve/PUP list Saturday but still carried a questionable tag ahead of the divisional clash with Green Bay. However, he is cleared to return after being sidelined to begin the 2026 campaign, though it's unknown if he will see limited action in his first game back from the injury.

Steen (shoulder) has returned to Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Steen was cleared to play through his shoulder injury and returned to the game to begin the fourth quarter. The right guard has reclaimed his role from Fred Johnson.

Brosmer (coach's decision) is listed as inactive but will serve as the Vikings' third quarterback for Sunday's games versus the Saints, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports.

Brosmer joined the Vikings' 53-man roster in early October after the team traded away J.J. McCarthy. The 25-year-old is not available to play against the Saints unless both Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz are taken out of the game due to an injury, illness, or ejection.

Harrison has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Eagles in London due to a knee injury.

After departing in the third quarter of the contest, Harrison was initially labeled questionable to return before being downgraded to out 15 minutes later. Walker Little stepped in at left tackle in place of Harrison, whose status is uncertain heading into a Week 6 matchup with the Texans.

Heidenreich (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Even with Rico Dowdle (toe) ruled out once again, Heidenreich won't get on the field in Week 5. As a result, Travis Homer will continue to operate as the No. 2 option on the depth chart behind Jaylen Warren.

Hunt (ankle/knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Hunt is dealing with an ankle and a knee injury that the linebacker suffered on the last play of the first half. The 25-year-old sustained the injuries while making a crucial fourth-down stop.
