Dortch reverted to the Bills' practice squad Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Dortch played a total of 12 snaps (four on offense, eight on special teams) and was the Bills' primary returner on special teams, logging 36 yards on three punt returns and turning two kickoffs into 51 yards. It's the second consecutive game in which Dortch has been elevated to the active roster, and he's eligible to be elevated only once more for the rest of the regular season. Should that happen, he would need to be signed to the active roster in order to play for Buffalo.

Rousseau logged three solo tackles for two sacks in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Lions.

Rousseau helped the Bills open the new Highmark Stadium in style, sacking Jared Goff twice and hitting him four times en route to the team's first regular-season win in the building. Rousseau's 4.0 sacks through two games in coach Jim Leonhard's 3-4 defense match half of his single-season sack peak (8.0 in 2022 and 2024). The 26-year-old is on his way to crushing his previous record as he manages his new role.

The Saints placed Wood (calf) on injured reserve Friday.

Wood's new calf injury is set to keep him away from the field for at least four weeks. Now on IR, Wood's timeline should sync up perfectly, as he will be unable to leave the list for a minimum of four games anyway. The Saints will likely utilize new practice squad addition Scott Daly as the interim longsnapper by elevating him to the roster for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

The Saints signed Donaldson from the practice squad to the active roster Friday.

Donaldson will join a Saints backfield that is led by Travis Etienne, with Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller providing depth at the position. Kamara didn't play in the Saints' Week 1 overtime loss to the Lions, with Donaldson being elevated from the practice squad and logging two carries for four yards and one catch for minus-2 yards. Kamara is available for Sunday's game against the Ravens, so Donaldson figures to see most of his playing time on special teams rather than on offense.

Bradford (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Bradford was limited in the Seahawks' Wednesday and Thursday practice sessions before being unable to participate Friday. The starting right guard's downgrade in participation is an unfortunate marker that he will likely not be able to suit up for Sunday's divisional contest. If Bradford is indeed inactive on game day, Christian Haynes is set to start at right guard.

Seumalo (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Seumalo drew the questionable tag after logging back-to-back limited practices to end Week 2 prep. Hayden Conner would likely start at left guard if Seumalo is unable to play. The Cardinals could be without it's two starting guards in Seumalo and Isaiah Adams (knee) against the defending Super Bowl champions.

Pipkins (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Pipkins missed every practice of Week 2 due to a new knee injury. The reserve offensive lineman agreed on a two-year, $10 million contract with the Patriots back in March but will be unable to provide the consistent depth on the offensive line that the team was hoping to get out of the veteran in the early season.

Van Lanen (knee) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Van Lanen was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday with a nagging knee issue, but he managed a full session Friday, so it looks like he'll be available in Week 2. He should make another start at right tackle Sunday.

Adams (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Adams was a limited participant in all three practices this past week due to a knee injury that prevented him from suiting up for the Cardinals' Week 1 win over the Chargers. If he's unable to play against Seattle, then Jon Gaines would likely start at right guard for a second consecutive game.

Mauigoa was a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a shoulder injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Mauigoa may have picked up the injury during the Giants' Week 1 win over the Cowboys, and his shoulder issue has limited his practice participation in each of the last two days. Saturday's practice is his last opportunity to upgrade his participation and avoid an injury designation for Monday's game against the Rams.
