Whittington did not catch his sole target and logged one tackle on kick coverage during the Rams' 24-9 win over the Chargers on Sunday.

Whittington played just four offensive snaps while logging 18 special-teams snaps in Sunday's contest. The wide receiver was able to overcome a back injury to play in the game, but the No. 4 option was overshadowed by the Rams' 13-personnel packages favoring tight ends.

Waller corralled one of two targets for 11 yards during last Thursday's 27-19 loss at Green Bay.

Waller has been hit or miss from a fantasy perspective this season, with two touchdown grabs in Week 2 in Atlanta and a 50-yard TD catch in Week 7 against the Buccaneers serving as the notable performances. Otherwise, he has one 50-yard effort in his five other appearances, sitting on a 15-209-3 line on 25 targets on the season. Waller next takes aim at the tough Broncos defense this coming Sunday.

McNichols is getting additional opinions on the foot injury that he suffered Sunday against the Eagles, but there's an expectation that he'll miss multiple months, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

McNichols limped to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's game in the third quarter and didn't return. Head coach Dan Quinn told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic on Monday that McNichols has a "mid-foot" injury that may be "serious," and Reed's new report backs up that sentiment. With Jacory Croskey-Merritt out at least three more games while on IR due to a groin issue, Rachaad White and Austin Ekeler are the healthy running backs on the Commanders' active roster.

Murray will miss the remainder of the season due to an elbow injury, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Murray hurt his elbow during the first quarter of Sunday's win over the Colts, although the exact nature of the injury is currently still unclear. Kaevon Merriweather and Rayuan Lane should see increased playing time in Murray's absence, and he will now shift his focus to getting healthy for the 2027 campaign.

Butker made one of his two field-goal attempts and converted all three PATs in the Chiefs' 28-24 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Butker converted a 45-yard field goal in the second quarter but missed a 54-yarder with 2:36 left in the fourth quarter that would have put the Chiefs up 27-21. The Broncos ended up winning by stopping a Chiefs touchdown attempt as time expired, something that could have been avoided had Butker converted on the prior drive. Butker has now gone 2-for-5 on field-goal attempts in the past two weeks and moves to 7-for-12 on the season.

Pili (back) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Bears, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The nose tackle popped up on the injury report with a back issue Friday and missed the last two practice sessions of the week. Pili has only played 19 defensive snaps in four games this season.

Meyers logged two catches for 24 yards on three targets in Sunday's 42-7 win against Indianapolis.

He put up a subpar fantasy line, but Meyers actually led Jacksonville in targets and tied for the team lead in receptions on a day when quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw only 14 passes, 10 of which he completed. Meyers also logged a 54 percent offensive snap share -- second among Jaguars wideouts behind Parker Washington -- after dealing with a hamstring injury during the week. He's still looking to build some momentum, as Meyers has three or fewer catches in five of his seven contests and has topped 40 receiving yards just twice.

The Seahawks waived Henry on Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Henry is headed to waivers less than a month after signing with Seattle. The 24-year-old didn't appear in any games during his tenure with the Seahawks and will now look to catch on with another team.

Nwosu (ankle) is inactive for Monday's clash with the Bears, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The linebacker didn't practice all week and came into the day with a doubtful tag. Derick Hall should be the next man up to replace him.

Jackson (ankle) is active for Monday night's game against the Seahawks.

Jackson was listed as questionable Saturday after returning to full participation. The outside linebacker has ultimately been able to overcome his ankle injury and is set to suit up opposite Devin Bush as the Bears take on the defending Super Bowl champs in primetime.
