The Seahawks elevated Foster from their practice squad Monday ahead of the team's matchup versus the Bears, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Foster is set to be elevated for the first time since joining Seattle's practice squad after having been waived from the active roster. With Rashid Shaheed not playing against Chicago due to a knee injury, Foster can provide extra depth at receiver behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Tory Horton.

Lock (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's matchup with the Bears, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The quarterback is nursing an elbow injury and entered the day with a questionable tag. Now, he can only play against Chicago if Sam Darnold and Jalen Milroe have to exit the contest.

Muhammad (toe) is inactive for Monday's game against the Seahawks.

Muhammad injured his toe in the Bears' Week 7 win over the Patriots. The cornerback's three consecutive limited practice sessions during Week 8 prep were evidently not enough to suit up, and the reserve option will be sidelined for Monday Night Football. Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips are set to be the reserve options at outside cornerback for the game.

Keenum (coach's decision) is inactive but will operate as the Bears' emergency third quarterback for Monday night's matchup against the Seahawks.

Keenum will serve as the No. 3 QB for the third straight week, while Tyson Bagent slots in as the primary backup behind starter Caleb Williams. Keenum will only be eligible to enter the contest if both Williams and Bagent are forced out of the game.

Head coach Jesse Minter said Monday that Huntley (toe) "probably" won't play Thursday versus the Jaguars, and the Ravens then will "see how it goes from a long-term standpoint."

On Sunday, Baltimore potentially lost No. 1 QB Lamar Jackson for the season due to a thumb injury, and Huntley himself is believed to have a turf-toe issue, which typically requires a multi-week recovery. As for third-stringer Joe Fagnano, who stepped in Sunday at Buffalo after exits from Jackson and then Huntley, he's tending to knee and other unknown health concerns. It appears Minter is leaving the door open for Huntley to be available Thursday, but Fagnano seems like the best bet to start in Week 9.

The Bears elevated Carlson from their practice squad Monday ahead of the team's matchup versus Seattle.

Carlson should provide additional depth at tight end behind Colston Loveland and Sam Roush with Cole Kmet out for the season due to a knee injury. This marks the first time this season that Carlson has been elevated for a game since joining Chicago back in September.

Moody is on track to kick for the Ravens in Thursday night's game against the Jaguars, according to Sam Cohn of the Baltimore Sun.

With fellow kicker Tyler Loop (undisclosed) a candidate to go on IR, per coach Jesse Minter, Moody is in line to fill in Thursday, and quite possibly beyond. Moody is currently a member of Baltimore's practice squad, so he'll either be elevated or signed to the team's active roster in advance of of Week 9 action.

Loop has been dealing with an unspecified issue and may go on injured reserve, Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun reports.

With Loop a candidate to go on IR, per coach Jesse Minter, Jake Moody will be the Ravens' kicker Thursday night against the Jaguars, and quite possibly beyond. Moody is currently on Baltimore's practice squad, but he'll either be elevated or signed to the team's active roster ahead of Week 9 action.

Stuard is battling a hamstring injury, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Stuard picked up the injury during pregame warmups prior to Sunday's win over the Chargers and is currently considered week-to-week. Shaun Dolac could be in line for increased playing time in Stuard's absence.

Coach Jesse Minter said Monday that Fagnano (knee) "is fighting through a couple things" but has a chance to play Thursday against the Jaguars.

Baltimore's QB room experienced a cascade of injuries during Sunday's loss at Buffalo, with Lamar Jackson requiring thumb surgery and an upcoming IR stint, Tyler Huntley likely tending to a turf-toe injury and Fagnano dealing with a left knee issue and seemingly at least one more health concern. Jackson is feared to be out for the season, and Minter said Huntley "probably" won't play Thursday, which leaves Fagnano as the likely starter, assuming he's healthy enough to suit up.
