Mingo (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Mingo was limited at practice all week after being activated from the Cowboys' injured reserve list Wednesday, and his availability in Week 5 seems like a coin-flip proposition. If he were able to suit up, he'd be joining a wide receiver corps missing CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (foot), potentially setting him up to see an increased workload right off the bat.

James (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Commanders.

James was limited in practice earlier in the week but is good to go for Week 5. A chess piece for defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, James has seen action on the defensive line, linebacker and in the secondary this season. The 29-year-old has been filling up the stat sheet, logging 34 tackles (22 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and two pass breakups through four games.

Krull (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

The foot injury is a new one, as he appeared on Friday's practice report as a DNP. The injury is severe enough for him to be ruled out for Sunday's contest, though his absence won't make too much of an impact as he was a healthy scratch for the Broncos' Week 4 win against the Bengals. With Krull sidelined, Denver's tight end room will consist of Evan Engram, Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins.

Lawrence (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Lawrence was injured in last Thursday night's Week 4 win over the Cardinals. It's not expected to be a long-term absence for the veteran edge rusher. Derick Hall figures to see increased defensive snaps against the Bucs.

Love (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

With Love set to miss Week 5, Nick Emmanwori figures to step in as the starting safety next to Coby Bryant against Tampa Bay. Love has 18 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass breakups across three appearances this season.

Witherspoon (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Witherspoon logged a trio of DNPs this week after playing through the knee issue last Thursday night against the Cardinals. It's fair to wonder if the cornerback suffered a setback versus Arizona. Witherspoon has played the bulk of his defensive snaps at slot cornerback. Derion Kendrick filled in at that spot in Week 3 when Witherspoon was out.

Crosby (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts.

Crosby popped up on Thursday's practice report as a limited participant due to a knee injury. He managed to log a full practice Friday and has been cleared to play in Sunday's road tilt. The 2019 fourth-rounder has logged 19 tackles (11 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass defenses (including one interception) and one forced fumble through the first four games of the regular season.

Fisk (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

With Will Dissly (knee) looking like a decent bet to return for Week 5 after logging a full practice Friday, Fisk likely doesn't have much of a role on offense behind the aforementioned Dissly, Tyler Conklin and rookie Oronde Gadsden.

Davis (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Davis will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a knee injury that he sustained in Week 3 against the Broncos. Tarheeb Still and KeAndre Lambert-Smith will likely pick up the slack as returners on kickoffs and punts in Davis' absence. Davis' next opportunity to play is Week 6 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Oct. 12.

Nwangwu (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Dallas, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Nwangwu hasn't played since Week 1 and didn't practice at all this week, making it seem more likely that he'll miss a fourth straight game. Isaiah Davis has been operating as the Jets' return man in Nwangwu's absence, though Davis will have a heightened offensive role going forward with Braelon Allen (knee) set to miss the next two-plus months.
