Burden has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Ravens due to a concussion, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Burden went to the locker room after Chicago's first drive of the third quarter, and after being evaluated, has been ruled out for the rest of the game. The 21-year-old rookie brought in his only target for minus-1 yard before his exit, and in his absence the rest of the way, additional opportunities could be available for Olamide Zaccheaus behind starters Rome Odunze and DJ Moore.

Cornelius (knee) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Broncos.

Cornelius will be sidelined for a third straight week with a persistent knee injury. As a depth piece on the offensive line, his absence does not carry much of an impact for the Cowboys in Week 8.

Flott (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Flott went to the locker room late in the first half after taking a hit to the head, and he has entered the league's concussion protocol after being evaluated by medical staff. Deonte Banks and Korie Black will serve as the Giants' outside corners the rest of the way.

Campbell went to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Patriots to be evaluated for a potential concussion.

Campbell left for the locker room during the third quarter on Sunday. The former Jaguar is playing in just his second game with Cleveland and has been nursing a quadriceps injury all week.

Melifonwu is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 8 game against Atlanta due to a hand injury.

Melifonwu was deemed questionable around the midway point of the third quarter. He tallied three tackles prior to his exit. Fellow safety Ashtyn Davis exited with a quad injury early in the contest, so Miami has turned to Dante Trader to log snaps in the secondary.

McLaughlin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

McLaughlin has been a healthy scratch for seven of the Broncos' first eight games of the regular season, with his lone appearances taking place Week 6 against the Jets. J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie will be the three running backs on the Broncos' active roster for Week 8.

Shepard is projected to operate as the No. 2 receiver in Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Saints due to the absences of Mike Evans (IR, collarbone/concussion) and Chris Godwin (fibula), Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

The veteran wideout started the Week 7 loss to the Lions working as the No. 3 receiver, but he bumped up a notch on the depth chart during the game when Evans exited with his pair of injuries. Shepard wound up with a season-high seven receptions on his seven targets against Detroit, albeit while netting only 25 receiving yards. Sunday, Shepard is due to begin the game as the No. 2 wideout, and he could certainly benefit from the defensive attention likely to be showered on rookie position mate Emeka Egbuka.

Guyton is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Guyton popped up on Thursday's injury report with a lower-body injury and was limited for Thursday and Friday's practices, but will be good to go for Week 8. The starting left tackle will have a tough challenge against a Broncos' defense that leads the NFL in sacks with 34.0.

Skattebo suffered a dislocated right ankle during Sunday's contest at Philadelphia and was transported to a local hospital to be evaluated further, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

With a diagnosis now known for the gruesome right ankle injury he sustained in the second quarter that required an air cast to stabilize and a cart to get off the field, Skattebo is out indefinitely and likely for the rest of the campaign. The rookie fourth-round pick will yield New York's backfield to Tyrone Tracy moving forward.

Ehlinger (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Broncos' emergency third quarterback against the Cowboys on Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

As the emergency third quarterback, Ehlinger will see the field Sunday only in the event that both Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection.
