Kraft sustained a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Kraft was rolled up on by a teammate while attempting to block during a Josh Jacobs 15-yard run early in the third quarter. Kraft needed assistance to reach the sideline before the Packers announced the nature of the health concern. He had two catches (on three targets) for 20 yards at the time he exited.

Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Hunter will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive game as the Rams roll with a three-man backfield in Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and practice squad running back Ronnie Rivers. Hunter's next opportunity to play is Week 10 against the 49ers on Sunday, Nov. 9.

Elliss has a hip injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons.

The linebacker led the team with five tackles (one solo) at the time of his exit. Elliss came into the day with 48 tackles (22 solo), a pass breakup and a forced fumble on the year. Jahlani Tavai, Marte Mapu and Jack Gibbens are New England's other options at inside linebacker.

Taylor (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Taylor was limited in practice all week due to a shoulder issue, but the 2022 second-rounder has been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. He has 36 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass defenses through the first eight games of the regular season.

White (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

With Ashton Jeanty dominating the Raiders' backfield, and Raheem Mostert and Dylan Laube as the reserve backs, White is once again the odd man out on the depth chart. Coming off zero offensive snaps in Week 5, as well as absences in both Week 6 and Week 7, White seems to be destined to ride the inactive list barring injuries to the starting backs.

Thornton is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

With Thornton the odd man out in Week 9, Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker, Jack Bech, Tyler Lockett and Alex Bachman will handle the Raiders WR duties versus Jacksonville. Through seven games to date, Thornton has caught five of his 19 targets for 94 yards.

Lloyd (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that Lloyd wasn't expected to play versus Las Vegas, and the fourth-year linebacker will indeed miss a second consecutive game due to a calf injury. Ventrell Miller will see an increased workload on defense in Lloyd's absence.

Muasau (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the 49ers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Muasau was injured in the first half and was ruled out just after halftime. He'll finish Week 9 with four tackles (two solo). Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles has stepped into Muasau's role at linebacker.

Shaheed (hip) is listed as active Sunday at the Rams.

Shaheed operated with a cap on his reps during Week 9 prep due to a hip injury that left him questionable ahead of Sunday's contest. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Saturday evening that Shaheed was expected to suit up this weekend, something that now has been confirmed. Shaheed is coming off a season-high 12 targets Week 8 and will be on the receiving end of passes from rookie second-round pick Tyler Shough instead of Spencer Rattler moving forward.

Kamara (ankle) is active for Sunday's game at the Rams.

Kamara has been playing through an ankle injury the last two contests and was listed as questionable for Week 9 after logging three limited practices. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported late Saturday that Kamara was in line to suit up Sunday, and the Saints have confirmed as much upon posting their inactive list. Kamara has mustered 74 yards from scrimmage and no TDs on 22 touches during the aforementioned two-game stretch and now will be working with new starting signal-caller Tyler Shough instead of Spencer Rattler moving forward.
