Stingley had two tackles, one pass defensed and one interception in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Seahawks in Week 7.

Stingley picked off Sam Darnold midway through the fourth quarter, setting up the Texans at midfield, but the ensuing drive was stymied at the goal line. It was Stingley's second interception of the season with both coming in the last three games.

Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said Tuesday that Haskins (hamstring) is doubtful to play Thursday against the Vikings, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

In the Chargers' 38-24 loss to the Colts this past Sunday, Haskins handled just three touches while Kimani Vidal led the backfield with 13. Haskins' hamstring injury may have played a factor in his limited usage, and now that Haskins is likely headed for a Week 8 absence, Vidal could be entrusted with an even larger share of the workload. The Chargers have Nyheim Hines and Trayveon Williams as available backfield options on their practice squad and could look to promote either or both players ahead of Thursday's contest.

Saubert wasn't targeted in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

Saubert has been targeted just once through seven games this season. He has consistently played at least 25 percent of the offensive snaps in each game, so he's still a reliable run blocker.

Arroyo caught four of five passes for 42 yards in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

Arroyo finished with a 38 percent snap share but out-produced fellow tight end A.J. Barner, who caught just one pass for seven yards. A rookie second-round pick, Arroyo continues to showcase his upside, but his snap count will remain low unless he can overtake Barner as the superior run blocker. In the long run, it's worth holding Arroyo in dynasty formats due to his superb athleticism.

The Chiefs placed Norman-Lott (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Norman-Lott tore his ACL during the Chiefs' Week 7 win over the Raiders on Sunday. The injury will sideline the rookie second-rounder for the rest of the 2025 season, and he'll turn his attention toward his recovery and to be ready for the start of training camp in July of 2026. He'll end his first NFL regular season with five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks. Jerry Tillery should see more rotational snaps at defensive tackle in Norman-Lott's absence.

Barner caught one pass on three targets for seven yards in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans.

There has been little target volume for anyone this season in the Seattle passing game behind lead wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but Barner has served as the top tight end with 18 catches for 212 yards (third on the team) and four touchdowns (tied for first). Barner continues to impress as a blocker and should maintain a high snap count as a result. He needs to find the end zone to pay off for fantasy purposes, though.

Fairbairn made both of his field-goal attempts and his only extra point try in Houston's loss versus the Seahawks on Monday.

Fairbairn connected on field goals from 46 and 36 yards, both of which came within the final three minutes of the first half. The 31-year-old is off to an efficient start this season despite a low volume of attempts, converting 13 of 15 field-goal tries and all 10 of his point-after tries.

The Saints placed Miller (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Miller's move to IR was merely a formality after head coach Kellen Moore confirmed that the third-year running back sustained a torn ACL in Sunday's loss to the Bears. The 23-year-old will be entering the final year of his rookie deal in 2026 and could have a chance at making it back for Week 1 of next season, though it will be contingent on him avoiding any setbacks in the long rehab process from surgery. Devin Neal is expected to step in as the Saints' new No. 2 running back in place of Miller, who had amassed 193 yards and one touchdown on 47 carries to go with five catches for 30 yards over seven games while serving as Alvin Kamara's top backup.

Horton didn't catch any of his three targets in Monday's 27-19 win over the Texans. He returned five punts for 67 yards.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba led the charge once again with eight catches on 14 targets for 123 yards and a touchdown, leaving little for the rest of Seattle's wideouts. Horton has yet to reach 40 receiving yards in a game, and his snap count remains below the 50-percent threshold due to the Seahawks' commitment to two tight-end sets. However, he ranks third in the league with 14.9 yards per punt return, and he retains some intriguing dynasty value.

The Chargers signed Williams to the practice squad Tuesday.

Williams was cut from the Browns' practice squad in early September, but the 2019 sixth-round pick will get fresh start with the Chargers. He could be elevated to the roster for Thursday's game against the Vikings if Hassan Haskins (hamstring) isn't cleared to play this week, which would leave Los Angeles with a need for backfield depth. Williams appeared in 17 games for the Bengals in 2024, but he primarily served on special teams and didn't record a carry or target.
