Still (knee) is questionable to return to Thursday night's contest against the Vikings.

Still suffered a knee injury in the second half of the contest, making it unlikely that he'll be able to return. In his absence, Ja'Sir Taylor is a top candidate to see an increase in workload at cornerback.

Okudah is getting evaluated for a concussion during Thursday's game against the Chargers, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

If Okudah has a concussion, it would be his second of the season, as he suffered one in the opener against the Bears and then missed Week 2 versus the Falcons. The rotational cornerback made one solo tackle before leaving Thursday's contest.

James (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday night's game against the Vikings.

The safety exited in the first quarter after suffering the injury. James played on every defensive snap across the first seven weeks of the season. The four-time All-Pro was replaced by Tony Jefferson on Thursday, who then went out with a hamstring issue, leaving RJ Mickens and Kendall Williamson as the Chargers' only remaining safeties besides Elijah Molden.

Oliver (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday night's contest against the Chargers.

Oliver will remain sidelined for the remainder of Thursday Night Football. The tight end sustained a foot injury early in the contest, and Ben Yurosek will continue to operate in a more substantial role with Oliver unavailable.

Darrisaw (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday night's contest against the Chargers.

Darrisaw exited the game with a knee injury in the first half, and he will now be forced to sit out the rest of the game. In his place, Justin Skule will continue to handle the starting workload at left tackle.

Williams finished with three tackles (one solo), including a tackle for a loss, in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

Though he did get in the backfield, Williams fell short of recording at least half a sack, which he did in four of the first six games of the season. In total, the veteran has 30 stops (14 solo), including 3.0 sacks, through seven contests.

Murphy finished with six tackles (three solo), including one for a loss, in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

The nose tackle has recorded multiple stops in all seven games this season and is up to 4.5 sacks. Murphy has firmly established himself as a centerpiece of one of the league's best defenses.

Oliver (foot) is questionable to return to Thursday night's contest against the Chargers.

Oliver suffered a foot injury in the first half, leaving his status for the rest of the game uncertain. In his absence, Ben Yurosek stands to see an increase in workload at tight end behind starter T.J. Hockenson.

Lawrence finished with two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks and another tackle for a loss, in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

The outside linebacker is up to 3.0 sacks in six games this season. Lawrence has also played on more than half of the defensive snaps in five of those six contests.

Bryant recorded five solo tackles, including one for a loss, in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

The safety also played on all 75 defensive snaps, the sixth time in seven games he's played on every defensive snap this season. Bryant has 35 tackles (28 solo) and four pass breakups, including two interceptions, through seven contests.
