  • Tyler Booker G | DAL

    Cowboys' Tyler Booker: Set to miss several weeks

    Booker was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain Monday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Booker suffered the injury during Sunday's blowout loss to the Bears and was given a return timeline of between four and six weeks. With Cooper Beebe (ankle) also sidelined, the Cowboys will be missing two key pieces of their interior offensive line for the foreseeable future.

  • 49ers' Mykel Williams: Deemed day-to-day

    Williams is considered day-to-day due to a wrist injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Williams hurt his wrist in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Cardinals but was able to finish the game after initially being labeled as questionable to return. He logged 65 percent of the 49ers' defensive snaps in the victory and finished with two tackles. Given that he was able to return after getting hurt, there's reason to be optimistic that Williams will be able to suit up Sunday against Jacksonville, though his level of participation in practice this week should provide better insight into whether he'll have an injury designation heading into the weekend.

  • Packers' Zach Tom: Avoids making injury worse

    Tom did not suffer any additional damage to his oblique in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Tom was forced to exit Sunday's contest after just one play on offense, and head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that he "wouldn't say further re-aggravated," in regards to the offensive tackle's pre-existing oblique injury. LaFleur explained that it's hard to simulate game reps at practice, and it appears as if Tom avoided making his injury worse.

  • 49ers' Renardo Green: Dealing with neck issue

    Green is managing a neck injury and is considered day-to-day, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Green presumably picked up the issue during Sunday's Week 3 win over Arizona, during which he logged 57 of San Francisco's 66 defensive snaps and finished with four tackles. The cornerback's practice participation level this week should provide more insight about his likelihood of suiting up Sunday versus Jacksonville. If Green can't play in that game, Darrell Luter could be in line for a larger role.

  • Ravens' Jaire Alexander: Won't play against Detroit

    Alexander (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Lions.

    Alexander did not feature on the Ravens' injury report this past week, which means the veteran corner will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive game. T.J. Tampa and Keyon Martin will serve as the Ravens' backup corners behind Chidobe Awuzie and Nate Wiggins in Monday's interconference showdown. Alexander's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Chiefs on Sunday.

  • Jaylin Lane WR | WAS

    Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Returns punt for TD

    Lane ran a punt back for a touchdown and lost two yards on his lone reception in a 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    The rookie fourth-round pick was one of five Washington wide receivers with route share above 40 percent but below 60 percent. That was partially a product of Terry McLaurin exiting early with a quad injury and Noah Brown (groin) not being available, but Deebo Samuel also had his snaps scaled way back for reasons seemingly unrelated to any injury. In any case, Lane is making a strong impression in the return game and could eventually take over some of Samuel's tasks on offense if Deebo misses time.

  • Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Healthy scratch against Detroit

    Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Lions.

    Mitchell will be a healthy scratch for a third consecutive week as the Ravens roll with Justice Hill and Rasheen Ali as the two rotational running backs behind Derrick Henry. Mitchell's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Chiefs, but the 23-year-old running back is out of the backfield rotation barring injury, illness or suspension to Henry, Hill or Ali.

  • Chris Moore WR | BAL

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Targeted twice

    Moore caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.

    Moore's 59 percent route share was tops among Washington wide receivers, albeit on an unusual afternoon that saw OC Kliff Kingsbury deploy deep rotations and a slew of players at each position. Terry McLaurin ended up suffering a quadriceps injury in the second half, potentially opening the door for Moore to have a considerable role again in Week 4 at Atlanta, although playing time won't necessarily lead to much production.

  • Luke McCaffrey WR | WAS

    Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Scores first NFL TD

    McCaffrey caught each of his three targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in a 41-24 win over Las Vegas on Sunday.

    With Noah Brown (groin) inactive and Deebo Samuel playing less than usual, McCaffrey split snaps with Jaylin Lane on a day when Terry McLaurin (quad) and QB Marcus Mariota were Washington's only full-time players at the skill positions. McCaffrey scored his TD from 43 yards out in garbage time, against a Las Vegas defense that may have been expecting Washington to simply run out the clock. In any case, McCafrey could get another look Week 4 at Atlanta if McLaurin's quadriceps injury proves to be a real problem.

  • Jauan Jennings WR | MIN

    49ers' Jauan Jennings: Considered day-to-day

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Jennings (shoulder/ankle) is considered "day-to-day," Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Jennings was able to play Week 2 with a shoulder injury that he suffered in the season opener, but he emerged from the second contest with an ankle issue that didn't allow him to practice last week. He was listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals but eventually was ruled out. Wednesday's session will mark Jennings' next chance to get his first on-field work since Week 1.
