Coach Shane Steichen confirmed Monday that Shrader will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a torn ACL and MCL in his right knee in Sunday's win over the Raiders, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

It's a tough blow for Shrader, who had finally been making his way in the NFL as a consistent kicker after winning the Colts' job this past summer. The Colts now will need to look outside the organization for a new kicker since they don't currently employ one on the practice squad. Shrader's season ends with him making 13 of 14 field-goal attempts and all 14 extra-point tries.

Collins caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's loss to New Orleans.

For the first three weeks of the campaign, Collins was deployed primarily in a special-teams role, but he got more of a look on offense in Week 4 after Malik Nabers went down with a season-ending knee injury. Collins then saw his role expand further in Week 5, as he tallied a season-high 28 offensive snaps -- fourth most among New York wideouts, and only slightly behind presumed No. 3 WR Jalin Hyatt (34). Collins came away with his first three targets and his first catch of the campaign, though he also made a key mistake by stopping mid-route on a pass thrown his way in the fourth quarter that led to a Jaxson Dart interception. How that play affects Collins' opportunities moving forward remains to be seen, but given the current state of New York's wideout corps -- Darius Slayton, Wan'Dale Robinson and Hyatt aren't threatening for Pro Bowl status -- Collins could continue to see more looks moving forward.

Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Bowers (knee) is considered week-to-week, Paul H. Gutierrez of the Raiders' official site reports.

Bowers was unable to play through the PCL injury in Week 5 against the Colts, and it seems the Raiders are finally considering letting their star tight end recover and get close to 100 percent after he played through the injury the first four weeks of the season. Bowers is genuinely looking questionable for Sunday's Week 6 bout with the Titans. If Bowers is unable to play, Michael Mayer (concussion) would likely handle starter-level snaps, as long as Mayer is able to clear the concussion protocol after missing the past two games.

Gordon rushed three times for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Panthers.

The rookie from Oklahoma State played 14 offensive snaps and served as Miami's top reserve running back again in the Week 5 loss. Gordon has now rushed 21 times for 58 yards and a touchdown this season while catching two of three targets for an additional four yards. He's expected to continue playing a reserve role on the Dolphins' offense in a Week 6 matchup against the Chargers.

Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Mauigoa will be fine after sustaining a foot injury in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

The 2025 fifth-round pick from Miami played 62 total snaps (49 on defense, 13 on special teams) prior to sustaining his foot injury, recording four total tackles. Glenn's comments Monday suggest Mauigoa avoided a serious issue and will travel with the team for the Week 6 matchup against the Broncos in London. However, if the injury is too much to overcome by Sunday, Mykal Walker could see increased work on the Jets' first-team defense.

Hyatt did not catch any of his three targets in Sunday's loss to the Saints in Week 5.

With Malik Nabers (knee) out for the season, Hyatt logged a season-high 34 offensive snaps, third-most among Giants wideouts. However, the increase in opportunity did not lead to an increase in production. Hyatt did draw his first three targets of the campaign, but he didn't haul any of them in. Meanwhile, UDFA wideout Beaux Collins was right behind Hyatt with 28 offensive snaps, though he was only slightly more productive with one catch (on three targets) for seven yards. The Giants' passing attack as a whole has struggled so far this season, and with Collins potentially continuing to challenge Hyatt for targets behind Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton, Hyatt's outlook for a Week 6 Thursday night matchup against Philadelphia is bleak, at best.

Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Johnson (ankle) will travel with the Jets to London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Johnson has missed three consecutive games after sustaining an ankle injury in the Jets' Week 2 loss to the Bills. However, traveling with the team for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos is an encouraging sign for his potential return. The 2022 first-round pick has struggled to stay healthy over the past two seasons, appearing in just four contests and recording 11 total tackles and one pass defended. His participation in practice throughout the week will likely serve as the best indication of whether he can return for the Week 6 affair in London.

Richardson was 1-for-2 passing for nine yards, catching his own pass when deflected by the defensive line, in Sunday's win over Las Vegas. He played seven snaps late in the blowout victory.

Richardson has been relegated to a true backup with Daniel Jones playing well as the starter. There was some thought early in the season that Richardson could be used on short-yardage and goal-line plays, but Jones has been strong in those situations as well.

Singletary rushed six times for 20 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in a Week 5 loss to New Orleans on Sunday.

For the second straight week, Singletary worked as New York's No. 2 RB behind Cam Skattebo. That role didn't yield much production for the veteran ball carrier, however, as he totaled a modest 24 yards on seven touches. Singletary's six carries and 20 rushing yards were actually third on the Giants -- Skattebo ran 15 times for 59 yards, while QB Jaxson Dart rushed seven times for 55 yards -- though no other tailback on the team took an offensive snap. Singletary's time as Skattebo's backup may be coming to an end, as Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) was able to practice last Friday in a limited fashion before ultimately being deemed inactive. With that said, New York has a short turnaround with a Thursday matchup against Philadelphia on tap, so Singletary could get one more chance to log a handful of carries Week 6.

Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Nwangwu (hamstring) will travel with the Jets to London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Nwangwu has been sidelined for four consecutive games since sustaining a hamstring injury in the Jets' Week 1 loss to the Steelers. However, he'll travel with the team to London ahead of the Week 6 matchup against the Broncos, which is a good sign for his potential availability. The 27-year-old's practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of whether he can return for Sunday's contest.
