Crownover (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Crownover missed all three practice sessions in Week 2 with a new knee injury. The rookie sixth-rounder will leave the Patriots thin on the offensive line as they head into a matchup with a Steelers defense that held the Falcons to 13 points in Week 1.

Simmons (back) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game versus Indianapolis, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Simmons was unable to practice during the week as he continues to deal with a back injury, and he'll have to wait at least one more game to make his 2026 regular-season debut. Undrafted rookie Kahlil Benson projects to get another start at left tackle in Week 2.

Thomas was a limited participant in Friday's practice due to an ankle injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Thomas has opened the week with back-to-back limited practices due to an ankle injury that he may have picked up during the Giants' Week 1 win over the Cowboys. A full practice Saturday would likely be enough for the seventh-year pro to avoid an injury designation for Monday's game against the Rams.

Killebrew (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Killebrew was able to practice in full Friday, but he still drew the questionable tag while working through the league's five-step concussion protocol. The last step is to pass an evaluation by an independent neurologist, at which point Killebrew would be cleared to play against Cleveland.

Ingram (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Ingram was a healthy participant in Wednesday's practice before being limited Thursday with a new groin issue. The right guard capped off a demoralizing week of practice by missing Friday's session due to the issue. Wyatt Teller will likely start at right guard in Ingram's absence.

Banks (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Banks was a limited participant in practice throughout Week 2. The starting left guard was unable to suit up for the Packers' Week 1 loss to the Vikings due to his knee injury, despite logging the same pattern of practice. Unless Banks' injury situation has gotten significantly better within a week while remaining at the same participation level, he will likely miss next Sunday's contest.

Jenkins (back) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Jenkins was limited by a back injury in each of the first two practices of the week. He's been given the green light to play Sunday after logging a full practice Friday, and Jenkins will once again serve as the Browns' starting center while rookie fifth-rounder Parker Brailsford (thumb) provides depth at the position.

Bako-Bewele (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Bako-Bewele was questionable with the same knee injury ahead of last Sunday's game against the Vikings. The offensive lineman ended up suiting up for the loss and will likely do the same in Week 2 as the Packers take on the Jets.

Brailsford (thumb) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

The rookie fifth-rounder was not available against the Jaguars in Week 1 due to a thumb injury that he's been recovering from since early August. He's been cleared to play Sunday after logging a full practice Friday, and Brailsford will provide the Browns with depth on the offensive line behind starting center Elgton Jenkins.

Fautanu (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game at New England, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Fautanu missed practice Wednesday with an ankle issue, but he returned in a limited capacity Thursday and was able to practice in full Friday. He seems to be moving in the right direction, but if he can't play in Week 2, rookie first-rounder Max Iheanachor could get his first regular-season start at one of the Steelers' tackle spots opposite Dylan Cook.
