NFL Player News

Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Saturday that Fields (concussion) will start against the Dolphins on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Fields was sidelined for Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers after being diagnosed with a concussion following the Jets' Week 2 loss to the Bills. Fields was a full participant in practice Thursday and Friday and has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol, per Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. That paves the way for the 2021 first-rounder to start in Monday's AFC East clash while Tyrod Taylor reverts to QB2 duties. Fields has opened the regular season completing 19 of 33 passes for 245 yards and one touchdown while adding 17 carries for 97 yards and two scores across two games.

Clowney is expected to make his Cowboys debut Sunday night against the Packers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The veteran edge rusher was signed back on Sept, 14, but Dallas elected to hold him out in Week 3 while he got up to speed on Matt Eberflus' scheme. Clowney won't replace Micah Parsons, but he's recorded 15.0 sacks in 31 regular-season games over the last two seasons between the Ravens and Panthers and will provide a boost to a Cowboys pass rush that's managed only four sacks in the first three weeks of 2025, the fifth-lowest mark in the league.

Warren (rest/knee) is expected to play against the Vikings on Sunday in Dublin, Ireland, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Warren was a limited practice participant all week, with the Steelers citing both 'resting vet' and 'knee' as his injury designations. Even with Trey Sermon being elevated from the practice squad to the active roster, the expectation is that Warren will suit up against Minnesota, though an official announcement will be made approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 9:30 a.m. kickoff. Kenneth Gainwell would be in line for an uptick in playing time on offense if Warren is unable to play or has his snap count limited, with rookie third-rounder Kaleb Johnson -- who didn't play against the Patriots in Week 3 -- also providing depth out of the Steelers' backfield.

Godwin (ankle) is expected to play Sunday against the Eagles, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Godwin, who has missed the first three games of the season, was a full participant in practice Friday and is officially listed as questionable for the contest. His expected return to the mix arrives at an opportune juncture, with fellow WR Mike Evans expected to miss three-to-four weeks with a hamstring injury. Also trending toward playing versus the Eagles is QB Baker Mayfield (biceps, questionable), with the duo's Week 4 status set to be confirmed when the Buccaneers post their inactives ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Wirfs (knee) is expected to make his 2025 debut against the Eagles on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Wirfs ended the week with back-to-back full practices and is on track to play Sunday. The 2020 first-rounder missed all of training camp and the first three games of the regular season after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in early July. Graham Barton would likely revert to a reserve role on the Bucs' offensive line if Wirfs is cleared to play.

Mayfield (right biceps) is expected to play Sunday against the Eagles, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Mayfield, who was limited at practice this week, is officially listed as questionable, with coach Todd Bowles having previously noted Friday that the quarterback "should be OK for Sunday." Also trending toward active status versus Philadelphia is wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle), and the duo's Week 4 status, either way, is set to be confirmed ahead of the first wave of games Sunday, with the Buccaneers kicking off at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Thompson registered nine tackles (five solo) during Arizona's 23-20 loss to Seattle on Thursday.

Thompson played 65 of 66 defensive snaps Thursday and finished tied with Seahawks cornerback Devon Witherspoon for most tackles in the game. Thompson has seen a heavy workload through the first four games of the regular season, and his 33 total tackles is second most on the team behind Mack Wilson (35).

Dortch recorded four catches (on five targets) for 35 yards, one carry for four yards, three kick returns for 82 yards and one punt return for 15 yards during Thursday's 23-20 loss to the Seahawks.

After earning no more than a 24 percent snap share in any of the Cardinals' first three games of the season, Dortch jumped all the way up to 64 percent Week 4 with Zay Jones (concussion) inactive. Dortch continued to handle most of the return duties, but he also surpassed his total number of targets from the first three games (four) in just one contest. For as long as Jones is sidelined, Dortch appears as if he'll be the team's No. 3 WR behind Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson.

Wilson hauled in three of six targets for 15 yards during Thursday's 23-20 defeat to the Seahawks.

Wilson earned a season-high 97 percent snap share Week 4, but he again didn't get much going within the confines of the Cardinals offense. His target count did mark a season best, but he now boasts a measly 6-36-1 line on 14 targets through four games. Until QB Kyler Murray begins to look his way more often, Wilson appears to be on the outside looking in when it comes to fantasy relevance.

Love finished Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals with six solo tackles and a pass defense.

Love was cleared to play after missing the Seahawks' Week 3 win over the Saints due to a hamstring injury. It didn't seem to hamper him at all, as he played every single defensive snap in Thursday's NFC West tilt, led both teams in solo tackles and finished third on the Seahawks in total tackles behind Devon Witherspoon (nine) and Ernest Jones (eight). Love is up to 18 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two passes across three regular-season games.
