  • Panthers' Princely Umanmielen: Exits after brief return

    Umanmielen (groin) returned to Sunday's game against the Saints before leaving again in the second half, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Umanmielen initially left Sunday's game due to a groin injury. He was cleared to return to the contest but appeared to aggravate the injury in the second half and was unable to come back for a second time. Umanmielen's practice participation over the coming days is worth monitoring ahead of the Panthers' Week 11 clash against the Falcons on Sunday, Nov. 16.

  • Bears' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Returns to Sunday's game

    Gardner-Johnson (foot) has returned to Sunday's game against the Giants, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Gardner-Johnson briefly left Sunday's game to have his foot injury assessed by medical staff. He was cleared to return after being evaluated and will rejoin the Bears' defense the rest of the way.

  • Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ

    Jets' Garrett Wilson: Won't return Sunday

    Wilson (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Prior to his exit from the contest, Wilson didn't log a catch on three targets. The wideout approached Week 10 action listed as questionable due to a knee injury, but at this stage it's unclear if if his current issue is a setback related to that, or a new injury.

  • Bears' Ruben Hyppolite: Done for Week 10 due to injury

    Hyppolite (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Hyppolite was deemed questionable to return midway through the third quarter, and he was ruled out in the fourth. The rookie has played primarily on special teams when he's been active this season.

  • Jaxson Dart QB | NYG

    Giants' Jaxson Dart: Concussion confirmed

    Dart was diagnosed with a concussion and won't return to Sunday's contest in Chicago, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Dart took a big hit at the end of a seven-yard quarterback keeper and was wobbly as he went to the sideline and eventually the locker room. With a concussion confirmed, he'll be subject to the protocol for head injuries to be able to suit up again. He'll finish Week 10 action with 241 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions on 19-of-29 passing, six carries for 66 yards and two TDs and a lost fumble. Russell Wilson will direct the Giants offense for as long as Dart is sidelined.

  • Eagles' Jaire Alexander: Won't play Monday night

    Alexander (knee/coach's decision) will not travel with the team for Monday night's matchup with the Packers and will be considered inactive.

    Alexander was a healthy scratch for his last two games with the Ravens before being traded to the Eagles, so his absence is likely more a coach's decision than a knee issue. The Eagles want to get him "acclimated to their defensive system" and "up to speed on his knee maintenance," per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. For now, his absence should leave Adoree' Jackson and Kelee Ringo as Philly's options on the outside opposite Quinyon Mitchell.

  • Bears' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Exits game with foot injury

    Gardner-Johnson (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Gardner-Johnson was taken to the locker room, where he'll have his foot injury evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Nick McCloud is slated to step into the slot corner position as long as Gardner-Johnson is out of the game.

  • Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ

    Jets' Garrett Wilson: Exits Sunday's game

    Wilson (knee) exited Sunday's game against the Browns due to a knee injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Before his exit, Wilson did not record a catch on three targets. In Wilson's absence, Tyler Johnson, John Metchie, Isaiah Williams and Arian Smith will handle the Jets' WR duties.

  • Jaxson Dart QB | NYG

    Giants' Jaxson Dart: Being checked for head injury

    Dart is under evaluation for a possible concussion during Sunday's contest at Chicago, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    On a designed quarterback run in the third quarter, Dart gained seven yards before taking a big hit and losing a fumble. He was hobbling as he made his way to the sideline before visiting the blue medical tent and eventually the locker room. Dart had completed 19 of 29 passes for 241 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions and turned six rushes into 66 yards and two touchdowns when he departed the game. Russell Wilson took over for Dart under center.

  • Giants' Rakeem Nunez-Roches: Dealing with toe injury

    Nunez-Roches has a toe injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    The defensive lineman had one tackle before exiting. Darius Alexander should be next in line to replace him.
