Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed that Hill (knee) underwent season-ending surgery Tuesday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

McDaniel relayed that Hill's surgery addressed a dislocation of the receiver's left knee, as well as damage to multiple ligaments, including a torn ACL. Given the extensive damage he sustained in Monday's win over the Jets, the 31-year-old wideout could require additional follow-up procedures, which may affect his availability for next season. Hill will be entering the final season of his contract in 2026 at a non-guaranteed $29.9 million salary, though he'll be fully guaranteed $11 million plus a $5 million bonus if he remains on Miami's roster through the third day of the new league year in March. He'll finish the 2025 campaign with a 21-265-1 receiving line on 29 targets over four games.

Allen sustained an MCL sprain during Monday's 27-21 loss at Miami and likely will be placed on injured reserve, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Prior to injuring his knee on a kick return in the second quarter, Allen was splitting the reps at running back with Breece Hall, with the former turning his four carries into 26 yards. If Allen requires a stint on IR, he'll be required to miss at least four games. In the meantime, Hall likely will take on a workhorse role out of the Jets backfield, while Isaiah Davis would be the top candidate to handle any reps that don't go to Hall.

Metchie recorded two receptions for 10 yards in Sunday's 31-25 victory over Tampa Bay.

Metchie totaled two catches for eight yards across the first three games of the season, so Sunday's performance represented his best effort to date. He remains firmly the fourth receiver on the Eagles' depth chart, however, as he saw the field for just five offensive snaps compared to 31 for No. 3 wideout Jahan Dotson.

Dotson was not targeted a single time in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

Dotson has rarely recorded more than one catch in a game during his two seasons with the Eagles, and he didn't even reach that low threshold Sunday. He's now been blanked seven times in 21 regular season games with the team.

Bigsby didn't play a single offensive snap in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

The Eagles acquired Bigsby from the Jaguars after Week 1 but have yet to make him part of the offensive gameplan. He's been used as a kick returner but hasn't seen the field on offense in any of his three games with his new team. With Will Shipley back from an oblique injury, Bigsby is now the fourth running back on the depth chart.

Dillon carried the ball three times for 17 yards in Sunday's 31-25 win over Tampa Bay.

Will Shipley returned from an oblique injury, but Dillon remained the No. 2 back behind Saquon Barkley, seeing the field for eight offensive snaps compared to Shipley's three. Unless Barkley gets hurt, however, Dillon is unlikely to see enough snaps to have much fantasy relevance.

Shipley played just three snaps on offense and didn't record a carry or draw a target in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

Shipley was back in action after missing the previous two games due to an oblique injury, but his role was almost exclusively limited to special teams, where he was featured as a kick returner. AJ Dillon (three carries for 17 yards) ended up serving as the No. 2 back behind Saquon Barkley.

Jackson (hamstring) is likely to miss Sunday's game against the Texans and could be out for 2-to-3 weeks, two sources tell Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun.

The Ravens have been mum regarding the severity of the hamstring concern that forced Jackson out in the third quarter of Sunday's 37-20 loss to Kansas City, but the quarterback appears in line to miss his first game for injury-related reasons since 2022. According to the report, Jackson still plans to try and play through the injury this Sunday, but if he doesn't show enough improvement during the week, Cooper Rush would direct the offense against Houston. The expected loss of Jackson would be a major hit to the 1-3 Ravens in their matchup with the Texans' top-ranked scoring defense, which has allowed just 12.8 points per game through the first four weeks.

Royals accrued zero targets during Sunday's 37-20 win against the Ravens.

Royals didn't accumulate any snaps in any of the first three weeks, but the Chiefs took hold of a sizable lead against the Ravens, enough so that in the second half, the bench players got into the mix. Royals remains buried on the depth chart at this juncture, and there's little reason to anticipate that changing, especially with Rashee Rice's six-game suspension expiring prior to the Week 7 clash with the Raiders.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that the severity of the right hamstring injury Jackson sustained in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Chiefs remains uncertain, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports. "There's nothing that looks like it's season-ending by any stretch," Harbaugh said, though he acknowledged Jackson wouldn't have returned to the Week 4 contest even if the game had been more competitive.

Jackson took his final snap with 8:10 left in the third quarter, when he was sacked by George Karlaftis before the Ravens finished off the drive with a field goal to cut their deficit to 14 points. Harbaugh said that he was unsure which play resulted in Jackson tweaking his hamstring, adding that the quarterback may have suffered the injury on an accumulation of plays. Jackson is likely to be sent in for further medical testing before the Ravens have a better idea regarding the extent of his hamstring injury and a potential timeline for his return. Cooper Rush finished the Week 4 loss under center and would be in line to start this Sunday against the Texans in the event Jackson is unable to play. Jackson hasn't missed a game due to injury since 2022, when a knee issue kept him out for the final five contests of the regular season as well as the Ravens' wild-card round loss to the Bengals.
