  • Carson Wentz QB | MIN

    Vikings' Carson Wentz: Big volume in Week 4 loss

    Wentz completed 30 of 46 passes for 350 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Steelers in Dublin. He added 12 rushing yards on two carries and also threw a two-point conversion to Jalen Nailor.

    The Vikings lost right tackle Brian O'Neill to a knee injury and center Ryan Kelly to a concussion in the first half, and Wentz was under constant pressure as a result, getting sacked six times in total. Minnesota headed into the fourth quarter staring at a 21-6 deficit, but Wentz was able to lead a comeback that fell just short, hitting Zavier Scott for a 16-yard TD and Nailor for a two-yard score inside the final four minutes. On the other hand, the veteran QB almost threw a third INT in crunch time, only to have it overturned upon review. With J.J. McCarthy (ankle) not quite 100 percent yet, Wentz is expected to get another start in London for a Week 5 clash with the Browns, but he'll need to take better care of the ball to have a shot at retaining the job when the Vikings return from Europe.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Converts four of five kicks Week 4

    Boswell went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 24-21 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

    Boswell lined up for a 30-yard chip shot to put Pittsburgh up by 11 points late in the second quarter, only for Isaiah Rodgers to break through the Steelers' line to block the kick, which resulted in a Vikings' field goal nine plays later. It was the first missed field goal of the season for Boswell, and through four regular-season games he's gone 5-for-6 on field-goal tries and 10-for-10 on extra-point attempts. The Steelers are on a bye for Week 5, so Boswell will make his next appearance in Week 6 against the Browns on Sunday, Oct. 12.

  • Titans' Kevin Winston: Sidelined as expected

    Winston (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Winston appeared to be on the wrong side of questionable entering Sunday despite practicing in limited fashion throughout the week. He has been sidelined by the same hamstring issue all season.

  • Steelers' Calvin Austin: Exits with shoulder injury

    Austin is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings in Dublin due to a shoulder injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Austin checked out of the contest early in the fourth quarter and headed to the locker room after he appeared to land hard on the football while falling to the ground on a reception. If Austin's day is over, he'll finish with two catches for 13 yards on two targets to go with nine yards on two punt returns.

  • Chargers' Bradley Bozeman: Cleared to play vs. G-Men

    Bozeman (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Bozeman popped up on Wednesday's injury report due to a knee injury. He drew the questionable tag after logging back-to-back limited practices to close out the week, and he has done enough to be cleared to play Sunday. Bozeman will continue to serve as the Chargers' starting center while Andre James provides depth at the position.

  • Dan Moore Jr. OT | TEN

    Titans' Dan Moore: Playing through illness

    Moore (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Moore was a late addition to the injury report due to illness but he'll be ready to suit up. His availability will be key for the Titans' offense with JC Latham (hip) sidelined by a hip injury at the opposite tackle spot.

  • Elijah Molden CB | LAC

    Chargers' Elijah Molden: Will play Week 4

    Molden (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Molden missed the Chargers' last two games due to a hamstring injury that he suffered against the Chiefs in Week 1. He drew the questionable tag after an LP-LP-FP practice log, and he's progressed enough in his recovery to make his return in Sunday's road contest. Molden should play a prominent role in the Chargers' secondary alongside Derwin James and Alohi Gilman.

  • Jack Conklin OT | CLE

    Browns' Jack Conklin: Remains out for Week 4

    Conklin (elbow) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Though he was a limited participant in practice throughout the week, Conklin needs more time to heal from his right elbow injury and will miss a third straight game. The Browns will turn to KT Leveston and Cornelius Lucas as their starting offensive tackles in Week 4.

  • Texans' Braxton Berrios: Inactive Sunday

    Berrios (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    With Berrios a healthy scratch once again Sunday, Nico Collins, Christian Kirk, Xavier Hutchinson, Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel will handle Houston's Week 4 WR duties. Even when he's active on game days, Berrios is most likely to make his impact as a returner.

  • Trey Palmer WR | NO

    Saints' Trey Palmer: Saints debut still on hold

    Palmer (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisianareports.

    Palmer was cleared from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for Week 3, but he'll still remain inactive. He has now been a healthy scratch in three of the first four games of the season and has yet to make his Saints' debut.
