Mitchell (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Mitchell will miss his third straight game, and coach Aaron Glenn refused to provide any clarity on the situation Friday, saying he "doesn't know" if Mitchell is dealing with a sprain or fracture, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. With Mitchell out again, Isaiah Williams and Sterling Shepard will continue to soak up wideout snaps behind Garrett Wilson. Neither Williams nor Shepard is a particularly intriguing fantasy option.

Hall (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

With Hall set to miss another contest, Braelon Allen is positioned to continue handling the lead role in the Jets' backfield after he logged 32 of 34 offensive snaps in Hall's absence last Sunday against the Bears. Hall remains week-to-week, and his next chance to play will be Week 6 against the Patriots.

Head coach Nick Sirianni anticipates that Wicks (hamstring) "will be out there" at Friday's practice, according to the Eagles' official X account.

Sirianni confirmed that Wicks injured his hamstring during Thursday's session, and he wound up as a limited participant on the injury report. While it appears Wicks will get some work in Friday, his status for Week 5 will not be known until the Eagles release their final injury report of the week following Friday's practice.

Lamb is believed to be dealing with a "quad bruise" that is "not considered to be serious," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Lamb was deemed questionable to return to Thursday's loss to the Buccaneers after -- per the Cowboys' official website -- taking a "hit on the same quad that got hit last week," and although he briefly got back out there he was not on the field for his team's final drive. Lamb does not appear to be facing an extended absence and will have extra time to rest and recover before the Cowboys face the Packers in Week 6, but it could be a few days until the next update on his status arrives.

Gainwell rushed four times for 18 yards and brought in three of four targets for 10 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-16 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.

Gainwell logged his highest carry total since Week 1 and parlayed it into a new season high in rushing yards. The veteran change-of-pace back also tied his season best in receptions and recorded multiple catches for the fourth straight game, but over his first five contests in Tampa Bay, Gainwell's overall role is markedly less robust than the one he filled during his lone Steelers season in 2025. As such, his fantasy value is undeniably capped heading into a Week 5 home matchup against Pittsburgh on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Ferguson brought in three of six targets for 19 yards in the Cowboys' 24-16 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.

Ferguson was a distant second in targets to George Pickens' 13, but the veteran tight end failed to eclipse 25 receiving yards for the fourth time in the first five games. Ferguson's night -- and by extension, that of the Cowboys -- ended on a very sour note when he had a late fourth-quarter pass from Dak Prescott bounce off his hands and result in an Alex Anzalone interception that helped seal the victory for Tampa Bay. Ferguson has mustered a modest 15-102-3 line on 21 targets heading into a Week 6 road matchup against the Packers on Sunday night, Oct. 18.

Flournoy brought in three of four targets for 90 yards in the Cowboys' 24-16 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.

Finished tied for distant runner-up slotting in receptions, but he was also a comfortable second in receiving yards thanks in large part to a team-high 48-yard catch. Flournoy's yardage tally was also his highest since Week 14 of last season, and it was first above 37 receiving yards in the current campaign. Despite the breakout Thursday, Flournoy remains a volatile week-to-week option unless CeeDee Lamb (quadriceps) or George Pickens are unavailable.

McLaughlin made his only field-goal attempt and all three extra-point tries Thursday in a 24-16 win against Dallas.

McLaughlin made all three of his PAT tries before nailing a 41-yard field goal late in the third quarter. He could have had an additional chip-shot FG midway through the fourth, but the Buccaneers somewhat surprisingly tried (and failed) to get into the end zone on a fourth-and-goal play from the 1-yard line when a field goal would have given them a three-score lead. Regardless, McLaughlin looked fine after missing practice Tuesday with a right groin/hip issue, and he's now a perfect 10-for-10 on field-goal attempts this season.

Guyton had X-rays on his back that "looked good" following Thursday's loss to Tampa Bay, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Guyton exited late in the contest Thursday and didn't return. Head coach Brian Schotenheimer seemed optimistic about Guyton's X-ray results but also indicated that the team will run more tests on the left tackle. It remains to be seen if Guyton will be able to play against the Packers in Week 6, though it may help his cause that he'll have 10 days to try to be ready to suit up.

Daniels completed 19 of 25 passes for 189 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while rushing seven times for 23 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-16 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.

Daniels didn't have the luxury of a normal practice week after making his starting debut in a Week 4 home loss to the Packers, but the undrafted rookie from Kansas looked like a significantly improved player just four days later on the road. Daniels commanded the Buccaneers offense with poise throughout the night, spreading the ball around to seven different targets and remaining free of turnovers after throwing a pair of interceptions against Green Bay. Daniels also connected with Bucky Irving for a five-yard touchdown pass to open the second quarter, his second career scoring toss. With some valuable experience now under his belt, Daniels will have some additional time to prepare for a Week 6 home matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Oct. 18.
