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.

Phillips (triceps) has been ruled out for Atlanta's game Monday versus the Bills, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Phillips popped up on the injury report Saturday and will now miss his fourth game of the season. The 23-year-old has appeared in just one contest this season, recording one solo tackle while playing exclusively on special teams.

Terrell (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Bills, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Terrell missed the Falcons' last two games due to a hamstring injury he sustained against the Vikings in Week 2. He received an extra week to rest and rehab from his injury thanks to the Falcons' Week 5 bye, and that extra time has enabled the 2020 first-rounder to suit up for Monday's home tilt against Buffalo. Terrell should reclaim his starting spot at outside corner opposite Mike Hughes, which will revert Dee Alford to a rotational role.

Nichols (personal) has been ruled out for Arizona's matchup versus the Colts on Sunday.

Nichols was a late addition to the injury report and will now miss his fifth game of the season. With Darius Robinson (pectoral) out as well, Dante Stills is in line to get the start at defensive end alongside Josh Sweat for Sunday's game.

Kamara (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Kamara told Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune that he injured his ankle in last Sunday's win over the Giants, which left him limited in practice Wednesday through Friday. Ultimately, Kamara's status for Sunday's contest will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he's active, there's a chance he cedes some snaps to his primary backup, Kendre Miller.

The Colts elevated Abdullah from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus the Cardinals.

Abdullah will serve as the team's No. 3 running back for the second straight week as Tyler Goodson remains sidelined due to a groin injury. Abdullah carried the ball two times for six yards and a touchdown in the Week 5 win over the Raiders while playing on both offense and special teams. The team will be able to elevate the 32-year-old just one more time following Sunday's matchup.

The Bills placed Sanders (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN reports.

Sanders sat out the team's Week 5 loss versus New England and will now be forced to miss at least four more games before returning. The 22-year-old has recorded just two tackles (one solo) over four outings. Deone Walker should see increased playing time in Sanders' absence.

The Bills placed on Hamlin (pectoral) on injured reserve Saturday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Hamlin will be forced to miss at least four games, and it's currently unclear when he suffered the injury. The 27-year-old has seen limited action across his first five outings of the season, recording just one solo tackle while playing mainly on special teams.

Coker (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Coker was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and was a full participant in practice all week, but he'll have to wait until Week 7 against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 19 for the next opportunity to make his 2025 regular-season debut. Coker's absence means Xavier Legette and Hunter Renfrow will continue to work with rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan in three-wideout sets.
