Green has an elbow injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Browns.

The defensive end did not get on the stat sheet before leaving the contest. In Green's absence, Danny Striggow is the only backup end left on the Jags' depth chart.

Fitzpatrick has a groin injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Titans.

The safety did not record a stat before exiting. Malachi Moore and Andre Cisco are New York's extra safeties.

Mahogany is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints due to a knee injury, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Per Colton Pouncy of The Athletic, it looked to be a non-contact injury for Mahogany, who walked slowly off the field with athletic trainers. Ben Bartch has taken over at left guard in Mahogany's absence.

Cooper sustained an ankle injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Titans and is questionable to return.

Per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, the rookie first-round pick opened the game as the Jets' starting slot receiver and made an instant impact on the first drive, breaking free for a 30-yard catch and run that set up a Kenyon Sadiq touchdown run. Cooper may have tweaked his ankle on that play, however, as his availability for the remainder of Week 1 is now in question.

Sampson sustained a knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Jaguars and is considered questionable to return, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Sampson didn't receive any touches on offense but returned two kickoffs for 64 yards before exiting the contest. The second-year running back headed to the locker room and will be evaluated further before the Browns decide whether he'll be able to return to the game.

Waller is listed as active for Sunday's season opener against the Bears.

Waller had been preparing to play Week 1, and he will indeed occupy a spot on the active roster. It remains to be seen what role he will fill, though, as fellow tight ends Tommy Tremble, Mitchell Evans and Feleipe Franks will also be in uniform.

Grupe (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans, Amanda Vogt of the Jets' official site reports.

The Jets opted to elevate Jason Sanders from the practice squad, and he'll handle kicking duties in the season opener. New York could take a week-to-week approach with the kicker spot, with Sanders' performance in the opener likely being a factor in whether he or Grupe gets the nod for the Week 2 game against the Packers.

Izien (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.

The safety logged limited practice sessions in the week leading up to the game and entered the weekend with a questionable tag. With Brian Branch (Achilles) and Kerby Joseph (knee) also unavailable for Sunday, the Lions will have to roll with Avonte Maddox, Chuck Clark and Thomas Harper as their safeties and Roger McCreary as their slot corner.

Zaccheaus will serve as the Falcons' WR3, the backup returner on punts and kickoffs, and the emergency third option at both quarterback and running back for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Steelers, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

The Falcons have two quarterbacks (Cooper Rush and Jack Strand) and two running backs (Bijan Robinson and Brian Robinson) on the game-day roster for Sunday's regular-season opener. Most of Zaccheaus' playing time figures to come on three-wideout sets as he works behind Drake London and Jahan Dotson, with rookie third-rounder Zachariah Branch also in the mix for offensive snaps.

Skule (oblique) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Skule was listed as doubtful after being limited in practice all week. The 29-year-old lineman appeared in 16 games with the Vikings last season, making nine starts. He has 82 career regular-season games of experience.
