Parkinson (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Parkinson was not cleared to play against the Titans in Week 2 due to a shoulder injury, but has been given the green light to suit up Sunday. Parkinson will serve as the Rams' backup tight end behind Tyler Higbee while Davis Allen works in rotation.

Horn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Horn will be a healthy scratch for a third consecutive week despite Xavier Legette (hamstring) being inactive. David Moore will join Tetairoa McMillan and Hunter Renfrow in the Panthers' starting offense while Brycen Tremayne and Dalevon Campbell work in rotation. Horn's next chance to make his NFL regular-season debut is Week 4 against the Patriots on Sunday, Sept. 28.

Skattebo is expected to handle an increased role in Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll hasn't confirmed that Skattebo will be in line for an uptick in opportunity in Week 3, though that would seem to be a logical conclusion after the rookie handily outperformed fellow backs Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary in the 40-37 overtime loss to Dallas in Week 2. Skattebo didn't start but still led the trio in snaps (35, 52 percent share) while carrying 11 times for 45 yards and a touchdown to go with two catches for 14 yards on three targets. Though he'll be matching up against a stouter Chiefs defense in Week 3, Skattebo's prospects could be bolstered by the expected return of standout left tackle Andrew Thomas (foot), who remains listed as questionable but is likely to suit up after sitting out the Giants' first two games.

The Falcons haven't received any trade inquiries on Cousins over the past week, despite a number of teams dealing with injuries at quarterback, Jay Glazer reported on "Fox NFL Sunday."

The Falcons are willing to trade Cousins, but they also didn't put anything on tape with him this preseason to demonstrate that he has fully recovered from the injuries that ultimately contributed to him being benched during the 2024 season. He'll continue to serve as Michael Penix's top backup until a potential trade suitor emerges as the season unfolds.

Daniels (knee), who is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders, is comfortable throwing and running forward, but his struggles with moving laterally was the main factor in Washington's decision to rule him out for Week 3, Jay Glazer reported on "Fox NFL Sunday."

While the Commanders haven't provided official word on the nature of Daniels' injury, Glazer classified the knee issue as a ligament sprain, though Dianna Russini of The Athletic relayed earlier Sunday that a possible MCL sprain has been ruled out. Daniels' ability to move laterally without discomfort will be the critical factor to watch next week in practice. The Commanders will proceed with Marcus Mariota as their starting quarterback in Week 3.

Hudson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Hudson exclusively played on special teams in the Bengals' first two games of the regular season, but he will observe Sunday's game in street clothes while Cincinnati goes with Noah Fant, Drew Sample and Cam Grandy as the three backup tight ends behind starter Mike Gesicki. Hudson's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Broncos on Monday, Sept. 29.

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Bourne is "probably" going to be a starting receiver for the team in Sunday's game against the Cardinals with Jauan Jennings (ankle) listed as questionable but set to be inactive for the Week 3 contest, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bourne began his second stint in the 49ers organization last week, when he joined San Francisco on a one-year deal after he was previously cut by the Patriots at the conclusion of the preseason. Despite having limited practice time with the 49ers leading up to the Week 2 win over the Saints, Bourne still played 35 of the team's 71 offensive snaps in the contest, finishing with a 3-32-0 receiving line on three targets. With Jennings out of the mix for Week 3, Bourne should be in store for an uptick in snaps and targets while likely settling in as the 49ers' No. 2 wideout behind Ricky Pearsall.

Mullings (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Mullings suffered an ankle injury during the Titans' Week 1 loss to the Broncos, which prevented him from playing against the Rams in Week 2. The rookie sixth-rounder was a limited participant in practice all of last week, and he has done enough to be cleared to play in Sunday's AFC south clash. Mullings will see most of his snaps on special teams but could work in rotation with Julius Chestnut out of the backfield behind starter Tony Pollard.

Goodson is active for Sunday's game at Tennessee.

Goodson missed each of the Colts' first two games of the season with an elbow injury. It's not clear how much he'll play against the Titans, as Jonathan Taylor got every carry (25) among Colts running backs last week and played 93 percent of the snaps on offense. Still, Goodson could be worked in on a few passing downs when Taylor needs a rest.

Sneed (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Sneed was a full participant in Friday's practice after logging back-to-back DNPs to open the week. He saw a limited snap count Week 1 due to a lingering knee injury but played 56 defensive snaps against the Rams in Week 2. With Jarvis Brownlee (ankle) inactive, Sneed will step into an even larger role in the secondary along with Roger McCreary, Amani Hooker and Xavier Woods.
