Head coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Fehoko is expected to "miss some time" due to a wrist injury he sustained against the Seahawks on Sunday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Fehoko was unable to return to Sunday's game after suffering a wrist injury in the second half, and the injury could be severe enough for him to be a candidate for injured reserve. The 2021 fifth-rounder has mostly been utilized on special teams this season, but his absence would be another blow to a Cardinals wideout corps that is also dealing with injuries to Zay Jones (Achilles) and Xavier Weaver (ankle).

The Eagles activated Smith (triceps) ahead of Monday night's game against the Packers, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Smith remains questionable for Monday's game, but his activation from injured reserve indicates that he will return from a five-game absence due to a triceps injury he sustained in Week 3 against the Rams. Joshua Uche, Jalyx Hunt and Jihaad Campbell will see less rotational snaps at linebacker if Smith is in fact cleared to play against Green Bay.

Wicks (calf) is active for Monday's game against the Eagles, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Wicks is returning to action for the first time since he injured his calf Week 7 at Arizona. With rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden (shoulder) inactive Monday, Wicks likely will be a key part of Green Bay's passing attack, as only Romeo Doubs didn't endure some type of practice restrictions during Week 10 prep. All of Christian Watson (knee), Malik Heath (hip) and Savion Williams (foot) also are available along with Wicks and Doubs.

Golden (shoulder) is listed as inactive Monday against the Eagles, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Golden opened up Week 10 prep as limited last Thursday but followed it up with back-to-back absences from practice, leaving him questionable for Monday's contest. With Golden's status now confirmed, the Packers will be rolling with Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Dontayvion Wicks (calf), Malik Heath and Savion Williams (foot) at wide receiver. Golden's next chance for game action is this coming Sunday at the Giants.

Henderson was listed as limited on Monday's injury report due to a knee injury.

Henderson appeared to get his knee twisted up during Sunday's 28-23 win at Tampa Bay, but he continued onward and authored the first signature performance of his career with 14 carries for 147 yards and two touchdowns to go with one catch (on one target) for three yards. He was getting a second straight spot start in place of Rhamondre Stevenson (toe), but the latter also was listed as limited Monday -- in addition to Terrell Jennings (knee) -- meaning all three players at the position on New England's active roster are banged up ahead of Thursday's game against the Jets.

Stevenson (toe) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report.

Fellow RBs TreVeyon Henderson (knee) and Terrell Jennings (knee) also were listed as limited, meaning all three players at the position on the Patriots' active roster are banged up at the moment. Stevenson has missed the last two games due to a toe injury, but after not practicing in any capacity last week, his listed activity level Monday is a step in the right direction as New England prepares to host the Jets on Thursday.

Golden (shoulder) isn't expected to play Monday against the Eagles, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Golden didn't practice Friday or Saturday due to a shoulder injury ahead of the Packers listing him as questionable for Week 10 action. He's now slated to miss the first game of his career, and with two other wide receivers also listed as questionable -- Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Savion Williams (foot) -- Green Bay has only three players at the position completely cleared for Monday's game (Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson and Malik Heath). Golden's status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Colts coach Shane Steichen said Monday that the team is " very hopeful" that Buckner (neck, IR) will retake the field this season but added he remains without a timetable to return, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Indianapolis placed Buckner on IR on Nov. 7, meaning his earliest possible return date would be Sunday, Dec. 14 versus the Seahawks in Week 15. Based on Steichen's comments, however, it sounds like Buckner could require more time on the sideline than the minimum four games mandated by his placement on IR. Neville Gallimore has stepped into an expanded defensive role with Buckner out, though he tallied just one assisted tackle during the Colts' win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that the 49ers don't intend to open Aiyuk's (knee) practice window this week, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Aiyuk remains in the rehab stages of the torn ACL and MCL that he suffered in his right knee Week 7 of last season. Shanahan told David Lombardi of SFStandard.com last Wednesday that he's "pretty confident" Aiyuk will play at some point this season, but it's unlikely to happen this coming Sunday and probably for at least a few more weeks after that point.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Pearsall (knee) has a chance to practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Pearsall hasn't practiced since initially suffering a PCL injury in his right knee Week 4, but he has worked out on the side on multiple occasions in recent weeks. Shanahan told Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com that "hopefully the next two days go good, and if they do, he'll be back out there. ... He had a good weekend." Wednesday's injury report not only will reveal if Pearsall was able to mix back into drills, but if No. 1 QB Brock Purdy (toe) has put himself in a position for his own first game action since Week 4.
