Woolen (concussion) has been ruled out for Seattle's game versus Jacksonville on Sunday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Woolen will miss his first game of the season after suffering a concussion in the Week 5 loss to Tampa Bay. The 26-year-old will have to clear the league's concussion protocol before he's eligible to return to the field. The Seahawks could be without three of their top defensive backs for Sunday's matchup, as Devon Witherspoon (knee) and Julian Love (hamstring) are both listed as doubtful.

Carson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Carson was a full participant in practice all week, but the 2024 fifth-rounder has not been cleared to make his return from a knee injury that he suffered during training camp in late July. Though he won't play Sunday, Carson is on track to make his 2025 regular-season debut in Week 7 against the Commanders on Sunday, Oct. 19.

The Cowboys elevated Campbell from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Campbell joined the Cowboys' practice squad in late September after fully recovering from an MCL sprain that he suffered during Dallas' training camp in late July. The veteran wide receiver is poised to make his Cowboys debut against the Panthers on Sunday, and he could be utilized on offense due to the absences of CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (foot). Campbell logged six catches (on eight targets) for 30 yards and a touchdown across five regular-season games in 2024 as a member of the Eagles.

The Cowboys signed Cropper from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

The move corresponds with the Cowboys placing running back Miles Sanders (knee) on injured reserve. Cropper had been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster twice this season and played a season-high six snaps on offense during the Cowboys' Week 5 win over the Jets. The third-year wideout will likely see most of his playing time Sunday on special teams but could get some work on offense due to the absences of fellow wideouts CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (foot).

The Cardinals signed Slovis to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.

Slovis will provide extra depth at quarterback, as Kyler Murray (foot) is considered to be a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup against the Colts. If Murray doesn't play, Slovis would serve as the team's backup behind Jacoby Brissett.

Mingo (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Mingo was not on the field for practice Thursday or Friday, and the third-year wideout will not make his 2025 regular-season debut against the team that drafted him in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft. Mingo will remain on injured reserve for at least one more week, and his next chance to play will be Week 7 against the Commanders on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Bowman (knee/hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Bills, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Bowman popped up on Friday's report due to knee and hamstring injuries, which limited him in the final two practices of the week. The rookie fourth-rounder has played a key role in the Falcons' secondary this season, so his absence would lead to more snaps on defense for Dee Alford and Mike Ford. Bowman's status may not be officially known until approximately 90 minutes before Monday's 7:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Oliver (ankle) has no injury designation for Buffalo's matchup versus the Falcons on Monday.

Oliver is set to play for the first time since the team's Week 1 win over the Ravens after missing the last four games. Now healthy, the 27-year-old should return to his role as one of Buffalo's starting defensive tackles for Monday's matchup.

Watts (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Monday's game against the Bills, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Watts popped up on Friday's practice report due to an ankle injury, but the injury doesn't appear to be severe, as he was able to practice without restriction Saturday. The rookie third-rounder has 23 tackles (17 solo) and four pass defenses (including two interceptions) through the first four regular-season games of his NFL career.

Hodge (groin) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Bills, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

A groin injury prevented Hodge from playing against the Commanders in Week 4. With the Falcons on their bye for Week 5, Hodge had an additional week to rest and recover from his injury, and he has been cleared to make his return Monday after logging a full practice Saturday. Hodge has seen the field on both offense and special teams this year, but he has zero receptions on one target through three regular-season games.
