Hunt (ankle/knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Hunt exited the game at the end of the second quarter after assisting in stopping Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten on the goal line. The linebacker is dealing with multiple injuries, making it unlikely he will be able to return to the game.

Brown (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Brown might have re-aggravated a hamstring injury in the second half of Sunday's game. The 27-year-old will be further evaluated by medical staff to determine if he can return. Jarrian Jones may see more reps in his absence.

Ward (groin) is active for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.

Ward ended the practice week Friday by logging a full session, though his participation wasn't enough to avoid a questionable tag. The veteran has since been cleared to play in Week 5, meaning he will start opposite Sauce Gardner.

Barmore (shoulder) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.

Barmore will make his return after missing Week 4 against Buffalo and should resume his regular role in the defensive line rotation.

McCarthy is serving as the Giants No. 2 quarterback for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Jake Haener backed up Jameis Winston last week versus the Cardinals, but he's inactive as New York's third quarterback for Sunday's contest. The No. 2 job is now officially McCarthy's after having a couple weeks to familiarize himself with a new playbook after being acquired from the Vikings in late September. Winston remains the starter for now, but McCarthy seems likely to get a look at some point this year for the Giants.

Carter (abdomen) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Carter exited Sunday's game with an abdominal issue and will not return to the contest. Kenny Moore has taken over at strong safety.

Elliss (chest) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.

It wasn't a sure thing that Elliss would suit up after only participating in practice in a limited basis all week, but that ended up being enough. The veteran linebacker played through a similar issue last week against Buffalo, where he logged six combined tackles across 58 defensive snaps.

Jones (shoulder) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.

Jones has been a regular on the injury report this season due to ongoing shoulder issues, but so far he has only missed Week 3. He'll suit up for Sunday's home matchup after logging zero tackles on 43 defensive snaps a week ago against Buffalo.

Leonard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers, though he is listed as the team's emergency quarterback.

Leonard is inactive once again. However, as has been the case in previous weeks, Leonard will be available if Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson exit the contest due to injury, illness or ejection.

Wright (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Wright was a mid-week addition to the Dolphins' injury report, after a sore foot limited his participation in practices Thursday and Friday. He took a questionable tag into the weekend but looks to be healthy enough to contribute out of the Miami backfield. In the wake of De'Von Achane's (knee) season-ending ACL tear, Ollie Gordon led the Dolphins with 100 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries to go with two catches for zero yards in a Week 4 loss to the Vikings. After that strong effort, Gordon is the favorite to pace the Miami backfield in snaps and touches once again in Week 5, but it's possible Wright cuts into his workload a bit more if he isn't slowed by the foot issue.
