Tyler Nubin SAF | NYG
Giants' Tyler Nubin: Active Sunday
Nubin (groin) is listed as active Sunday in New Orleans, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Prior to dealing with a groin injury this week, Nubin missed just six defensive snaps through the Giants' first four games of the season. After following up Wednesday's absence with back-to-back limited practices to end Week 5 prep, he'll be looking to build upon the 20 tackles that he's compiled to date.

Jermaine Johnson II DE | TEN
Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Won't face Cowboys
Johnson (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against Dallas, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
This will mark Johnson's third consecutive absence. He was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week, so it's unclear when he'll be able to retake the field.
-
Kenneth Murray LB | HOU
Cowboys' Kenneth Murray: Active in Week 5
Murray (knee) is listed as active Sunday at the Jets, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Murray managed a knee issue during Week 5 prep, but three limited sessions were enough for him to be available on game day. With 30 tackles already under his belt this season, he's a lineup consideration in IDP leagues, even at the hypercompetitive linebacker position.

Jaleel McLaughlin RB | CLE
Broncos' Jaleel McLaughlin: Healthy scratch for Week 5
McLaughlin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
For a fifth straight week, McLaughlin is a healthy scratch. J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey have handled most of the RB duties, with Tyler Badie serving as a depth option.

Foster Moreau TE | HOU
Saints' Foster Moreau: Making season debut Sunday
Moreau (knee) is listed as active Sunday versus the Saints.
Moreau thus has been cleared for his first game action since Week 18 of last season, when he suffered a knee injury that required surgery and a stint on the reserve/PUP list Weeks 1-4 of the current campaign. Fellow TE Taysom Hill (knee) is back in the lineup as well, meaning Moreau may be the Saints' third option at the position, at best, behind Juwan Johnson (ankle) and Hill on Sunday. Moreau is coming off a 32-413-5 line on 43 targets in 17 regular-season games in 2024.

Kyle Hamilton SAF | BAL
Ravens' Kyle Hamilton: Inactive Sunday
Hamilton (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.
After being limited Wednesday, Hamilton didn't practice Thursday and Friday and was deemed questionable for the contest. With Hamilton unavailable Sunday, the depth of Baltimore's banged-up defense is further taxed in Week 5. In his absence, Sanoussi Kane is slated to draw the start at strong safety.
-
D.J. Wonnum DE | DET
Panthers' D.J. Wonnum: Returning to action
Wonnum (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Wonnum was inactive for Week 4, but his absence will be limited to only one game. He's played a versatile role, primarily as a pass rusher and coverage linebacker through three games in the season. Across three games, Wonnum has totaled six tackles, two passes defensed, one interception and one quarterback hit.

Eric Stokes CB | LV
Raiders' Eric Stokes: Not playing vs. Indianapolis
Stokes (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Stokes suffered a knee injury during the Raiders' Week 4 loss to the Bears. He was a limited participant in practice all week, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. Veteran Jamal Adams and rookie third-rounder Darien Porter figure to see an uptick in defensive snaps at outside corner in Stokes' absence.
-
Juwan Johnson TE | NO
Saints' Juwan Johnson: Suiting up Sunday
Johnson (ankle) is listed as active Sunday against the Saints.
Johnson was contained to a pair of limited practices during Week 5 prep due to an ankle injury, but he'll ditch his questionable designation and be available to New Orleans' offense Sunday. He's welcoming back fellow TEs Taysom Hill (knee) and Foster Moreau (knee) to the lineup for the first time this season, but Johnson still should remain the most consistent pass catcher among the trio for QB Spencer Rattler. Johnson has racked up a respectable 22-204-1 line on 32 targets in four games on the campaign.

Sam Ehlinger QB | DEN
Broncos' Sam Ehlinger: Set for emergency QB role again
Ehlinger (coach's decision) is inactive and serving as the Broncos' emergency third quarterback for Sunday's contest against the Eagles.
For a fifth straight week, Ehlinger will serve as the third quarterback behind Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham. Ehlinger can't enter Sunday's contest unless Nix and Stidham are unavailable due to an injury, illness or ejection.
