Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Stewart is considered "week-to-week" due to a knee injury he sustained during the Bengals' 47-42 loss to the Bears, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Stewart was officially ruled out toward the end of the fourth quarter, and he finished the contest with three tackles (one solo) while playing a season-high 49 snaps on defense. The Bengals are on a bye Week 10, so the additional time to rehab and recover means the rookie first-rounder could be available for Week 11 against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Cornelius (knee) is inactive for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Cornelius will miss his fourth straight game with a knee injury. He's served as a depth tackle, so his absence won't significantly shift Dallas' game plan.

Steele was added to the Cowboys' injury report for Monday's game against the Cardinals due to a migraine but will be active for the game, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Although Steele will be active for Monday night's game, it's unclear whether he'll start at right tackle or be available off the bench as an emergency option. Hakeem Adeniji (coach's decision) and Ajani Cornelius (knee) are both inactive for Week 9, so Nate Thomas could fill in at right tackle if Steele does not start.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Williams tore his ACL during the fourth quarter of Sunday's 34-24 win over the Giants, Matt Barrows and Dianna Russini of The Athletic report.

Shanahan noted that there was some damage to the lateral meniscus in Williams' knee but no other ligament damage beyond the ACL, which means the rookie first-rounder has a chance to be available for the start of the 2026 campaign. It's yet another season-ending injury for the 49ers defense, with Williams stepping into a larger role on the defensive line after Nick Bosa tore his ACL in Week 3 against the Cardinals and All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner lost for the season after dislocating and fracturing his right ankle in Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Fellow defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos will miss at least three more games while on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury, but veteran Bryce Huff (hamstring) is expected to return from a two-game absence against the Rams in Week 10. In the absence of Bosa, Gross-Matos and now Williams, the 49ers will rely more heavily on the likes of Huff, Sam Okuayinonu, Clelin Ferrell and Keion White (who was traded by New England to San Francisco this past Tuesday) at defensive end. Barrows and Russini also note that the 49ers are looking to add to the position before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline and have shown interest in Jaelan Phillips (who the Eagles acquired from the Dolphins on Monday), Bradley Chubb and Matthew Judon.

Beebe (ankle) is active for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Beebe has been sidelined since Week 3 due to an ankle injury. His return should be a significant lift to the Cowboys' offensive line, as he'll be set to start at center.

Crawford (ankle) is active for Monday's game against the Cowboys, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Crawford was forced to miss the Cardinals' Week 7 loss to the Packers but is back in action following the team's bye. He'll contribute primarily on special teams.

Simon (illness) is active for Monday's game against the Cowboys, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Simon was added to the injury report Monday morning, but he'll be ready to suit up. He'll contribute primarily on special teams.

Mingo (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Mingo was activated from injured reserve ahead of Dallas' Week 8 matchup, but he'll be a healthy scratch for the second consecutive contest. It's unclear if he's still ramping up, or if the Cowboys are content with their wide-receiver depth for the time being.

Johnson (groin) is active for Monday's game against the Cowboys, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

The rookie second-rounder missed two games earlier in the season due to a groin injury, but he was able to play through the issue in the two contests prior to the Week 8 bye. The injury limited Johnson's practice participation Friday and Saturday, but he has been cleared to suit up Week 9 after going through pregame warmups.

Thomas (migraine) is active for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Thomas has missed each of the Cowboys' last two games with a migraine, but he'll be ready to face Arizona on Monday Night Football. He should serve as the starting free safety and be in a good position to post solid IDP stats.
