  • Ed Oliver DT | BUF

    Bills' Ed Oliver: Doesn't practice Monday

    Oliver (ankle) did not participate in Monday's walkthrough practice, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.

    Oliver was unable to play in Sunday's win against the Jets after his foot was stepped on in practice last week. Head coach Sean McDermott did not specify a timeline for Oliver's return, but the seventh-year defensive tackle would have to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days to have a shot at playing against the Dolphins on Thursday. Deone Walker and rookie second-rounder T.J. Sanders would see increased work at defensive tackle alongside DaQuan Jones if Oliver cannot play Thursday.

  • Commanders' Deatrich Wise: Officially lands on IR

    Washington placed Wise (quadriceps) on injured reserve Monday.

    Wise hurt his quad during Thursday's Week 2 loss to Green Bay and won't be able to play again this season. He'll finish his ninth NFL campaign with four tackles over two games. The Commanders signed defensive end Jalyn Holmes from their practice squad Monday to take Wise's spot on the 53-man roster.

  • Shemar Stewart DE | CIN

    Bengals' Shemar Stewart: Unlikely to play Week 3

    Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Stewart (ankle) is doubtful to play in the Bengals' Week 3 contest against the Vikings on Sunday, Dave Clark of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Stewart suffered a right ankle injury during the fourth quarter of Sunday's win against the Jaguars. Taylor didn't provide a timeline for Stewart's return, but Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer relays that the rookie first-rounder could be out of action for the next 2-to-3 weeks. If Stewart is in fact ruled out for Week 3, his next chance to see the field is Week 4 against the Broncos on Monday, Sept. 29. Myles Murphy and Cameron Sample should see an uptick in snaps at defensive end behind starters Trey Hendrickson and Joseph Ossai for as long as Stewart is sidelined.

  • Chris Moore WR | BAL

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Moves up to active roster

    The Commanders signed Moore from their practice squad to their active roster Monday.

    Moore was elevated for Week 1 against the Giants and caught his only target for a 34-yard reception. He didn't get elevated for Week 2, but he will now get a spot on the 53-man roster after Washington placed Austin Ekeler (Achilles) and Deatrich Wise (quadriceps) on injured reserve Monday. Moore will likely work as both a depth wideout and a special-teamer.

  • Falcons' Parker Romo: Back to practice squad

    Romo reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday.

    Romo was elevated to the Falcons' active roster for Week 2 and took over as the team's kicker for Sunday's 22-6 win over the Vikings, finishing 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts and knocking down his lone extra-point try. Though Romo is back on the practice squad, head coach Raheem Morris said Monday that there is "about a 90 percent chance" that Romo is called upon to handle kicking duties Week 3 against the Panthers. Younghoe Koo was inactive for the Falcons' Week 2 win, though Morris relayed that the team hasn't made a permanent decision on a kicker between Romo and Koo for the rest of the season. Even so, a strong performance in the Falcons' upcoming NFC South clash would give Romo the inside edge on maintaining the kicking job for the foreseeable future.

  • Patrick Ricard RB | NYG

    Ravens' Patrick Ricard: Considered week-to-week

    Coach John Harbaugh said Ricard's (calf) recovery has been slower than the Ravens had hoped, and he's considered week-to-week, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Ricard has been sidelined for the past month and hasn't played in either of the Ravens' first two regular-season contests.

  • Denzel Perryman MLB | LAC

    Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Placed on injured reserve

    The Chargers placed Perryman (ankle) on injured reserve Monday.

    Perryman suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs. The recovery timeline is 4-to-6 weeks, and an IR stint means that the veteran linebacker will be forced to miss at least four games, which makes Week 6 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Oct. 12 his earliest possible return date. Troy Dye is expected to start alongside Daiyan Henley at inside linebacker for as long as Perryman is sidelined.

  • Jarquez Hunter RB | MIA

    Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Makes debut on special teams

    Hunter logged six snaps on special teams during Sunday's 33-19 win against the Titans.

    Hunter made his regular-season debut Sunday after being a healthy scratch in Week 1, but he never got an opportunity to take the field on offense. Kyren Williams (17-66-0) and Blake Corum (5-44-1) handled the entire rushing load for the Rams, and given head coach Sean McVay's proclivity to feed Williams the vast majority of touches at running back over the past few seasons, Hunter will likely find it hard to make an impact this year barring an injury ahead of him on the depth chart.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LAR

    Raiders' Alex Bachman: Elevated for MNF

    The Raiders elevated Bachman from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Chargers.

    It's the second elevation to the active roster for Bachman, who played two offensive snaps and failed to haul in his lone target during the Raiders' Week 1 win over the Patriots. The 29-year-old wideout will get another shot at playing time Monday and will likely see most of his snaps on special teams.

  • Blake Corum RB | LAR

    Rams' Blake Corum: Scores on goal-line run

    Corum rushed five times for 44 yards and a touchdown and returned three kicks for 80 yards during Sunday's 33-19 victory against the Titans.

    Corum's first career touchdown in the NFL came on a one-yard rush, pushing his way into the end zone to solidify an already productive day for the former third-round pick. He picked up big yardage on most of his other runs, including a 15-yard scamper in the third quarter that set up a Davis Allen touchdown on the next play. Corum was on the field for 18 snaps on offense, a significant boost from last week's 10, and Kyren Williams struggled for the second straight week, managing just 66 yards rushing on 17 attempts. It'll be worth monitoring the snap counts of the duo as the season progresses, especially if Williams continues to be inefficient as a runner.
