Kerby Joseph SAF | DET
Lions' Kerby Joseph: Ruled out for Week 9
Joseph (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
As expected, Joseph will miss his second straight game, as the bye week wasn't enough time for Joseph to heal up for this NFC North tilt. Thomas Harper and Erick Hallett started at safety in Week 7 and figure to be in line for increased reps once again versus Minnesota.

Cole Holcomb LB | PIT
Steelers' Cole Holcomb: Questionable for Week 9
Holcomb (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Holcomb was added to the injury report Thursday and was unable to practice Thursday or Friday, putting his status for Week 9 in question. Payton Wilson would likely be in line to fill in at linebacker if Holcomb is unable to play.

Brandon McManus K | GB
Packers' Brandon McManus: Questionable for Week 9
McManus (right quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
After opening Week 9 prep with a limited practice Wednesday, McManus ended it with back-to-back full sessions, but the Packers will wait to make a decision on who will kick Sunday until about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. McManus returned from a two-game absence due to a right quad injury this past Sunday in Pittsburgh, but the results were uneven (2-for-4 FGAs, 3-for-3 PATs). Green Bay continues to carry two placekickers on the active roster (also, Lucas Havrisik), so whoever isn't on the inactive list between the two Sunday morning will be kicking in the afternoon.

Ollie Gordon II RB | MIA
Dolphins' Ollie Gordon: Viewed as day-to-day
Gordon (ankle) is considered day-to-day with an ankle sprain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Gordon, who was forced out of Thursday's 28-6 loss to the Ravens after logging 13 snaps and two carries, should benefit from the fact that the Dolphins don't play again until Sunday, Nov. 9 against the Bills. Added context regarding the running back's Week 10 status is slated to arrive no later than next week once Miami resumes practicing, but if Gordon ends up limited or sidelined versus Buffalo, Jaylen Wright (a healthy scratch versus Baltimore) would likely rejoin the backfield mix behind De'Von Achane.

Hassan Haskins RB | NE
Chargers' Hassan Haskins: Not playing in Week 9
Haskins (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Tennessee.
Haskins hasn't been able to practice since he injured his hamstring during a Week 7 loss to the Colts and will miss a second consecutive contest as a result. The Chargers currently have only one healthy running back (Kimani Vidal) on the active roster with Omarion Hampton (ankle) still on injured reserve, so the team will need to bring up reinforcements from the practice squad, where Jaret Patterson, Amar Johnson and Trayveon Williams currently reside, to round out the backfield this weekend.

Bryce Oliver WR | HOU
Titans' Bryce Oliver: Could return in Week 9
Oliver (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
Following a week of limited practice sessions, Oliver has a chance to return in Week 9. The Youngstown State product has missed the Titans' last six games due to a knee injury, and he caught his lone target for eight yards across two appearances this season. If he's active Sunday, he'll likely play a depth role in Tennessee's receiving corps while contributing in the kick-return game.

Chris Manhertz TE | NYG
Giants' Chris Manhertz: Good to go Sunday
Manhertz (illness) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the 49ers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Manhertz dealt with an illness during the week but was able to log a full practice Friday. With Daniel Bellinger (neck) doubtful to play, Manhertz could see an increased role as a blocker at tight end.
-
Christian Watson WR | GB
Packers' Christian Watson: Cleared to play again
Watson (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Carolina.
The Packers continue to limit Watson's practice workload even after he caught four passes for 85 yards in his 2025 debut last Sunday at Pittsburgh. He handled a 56 percent snap share and 62 percent route share in that contest, ranking third among Green Bay's WRs in both categories while outproducing both Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden. The early returns look good on Watson getting back to full strength after a late-season ACL tear in 2024.

Jevon Holland SAF | NYG
Giants' Jevon Holland: Questionable for Week 9
Holland (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Holland was able to get in a trio of limited practices this week, giving him a chance to play against San Francisco after he missed last Sunday's loss to the Eagles. Dane Belton would be in line to start if Holland can't play.
