  • Michael Danna LB | BUF

    Chiefs' Mike Danna: Questionable to return

    Danna (hip) is questionable to return to Kansas City's matchup versus the Eagles on Sunday.

    Danna exited the game in the first quarter. There is currently no timetable for his return, and Ashton Gillotte will take over Danna's spot on the defensive line in his absence.

  • Max Melton CB | ARI

    Cardinals' Max Melton: Carted to locker room

    Melton is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers due to a knee injury, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Melton spent an extended amount of time in the blue medical tent before being carted to the locker room, where he'll undergo further testing to determine the severity of his knee injury. Assuming Melton doesn't return, Denzel Burke will likely see more work at outside corner opposite Will Johnson for the rest of Sunday's contest.

  • James Cook III RB | BUF

    Bills' James Cook: Two TDs in Week 2 win

    Cook rushed 21 times for 132 yards and two touchdowns while catching his only target for three yards in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets.

    Cook once again operated as the clear lead back, as Ray Davis and Ty Johnson combined for just 30 scrimmage yards, with most of the backups' opportunities coming after the game was well in hand. Buffalo capitalized on a drive-extending roughing the passer penalty to open the scoring with a one-yard Cook rushing touchdown, and he added a 44-yard touchdown run in the second quarter to extend the lead to 20-0. Cook's versatile skill set allows him to stay heavily involved regardless of game script, and he has three total touchdowns heading into Thursday's Week 3 home game against the 0-2 Dolphins after racking up 18 scrimmage TDs in the 2024 regular season.

  • Cooper Beebe C | DAL

    Cowboys' Cooper Beebe: Won't return vs. NYG

    Beebe has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Giants due to an ankle injury, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Beebe appeared to suffer the injury in the fourth quarter and will not return during overtime. Brock Hoffman has taken over at center for the Cowboys.

  • Rams' Ahkello Witherspoon: Breaks clavicle in Week 2 win

    Head coach Sean McVay relayed that Witherspoon broke his clavicle during the Rams' 33-19 win over the Titans on Sunday, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Witherspoon left in the second quarter of Sunday's game, and further tests and imaging revealed the fracture. The severity of the injury will keep the 2017 third-rounder out for multiple weeks, making a stint on injured reserve for him likely. Emmanuel Forbes is the top candidate to start at outside corner opposite Darious Williams for as long as Witherspoon is sidelined.

  • Chris Board LB | NYG

    Giants' Chris Board: Ruled out Sunday

    Board (chest) has been ruled out for the remainder of the Giants' matchup versus the Cowboys on Sunday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Board was seeing increased playing time with Micah McFadden (foot) on injured reserve before picking up a chest injury. With Darius Muasau (head) also picking up an injury during Sunday's matchup, Swayze Bozeman will likely see the majority of reps at inside linebacker alongside Bobby Okereke for the reminder of the game.

  • Alex Highsmith LB | PIT

    Steelers' Alex Highsmith: Facing stint on IR

    Highsmith suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Steelers' 31-17 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Rapoport relays that the injury could take 4-to-6 weeks to recover from, which makes a stint on injured reserve a real possibility for Highsmith. Nick Herbig and Jack Sawyer both saw increased work following Highsmith's injury and are candidates to start opposite T.J. Watt at outside linebacker in the Steelers' Week 3 clash against the Patriots on Sunday, Sept. 21.

  • Steelers' Isaiahh Loudermilk: Spotted with walking boot

    Loudermilk (ankle) was seen on crutches with a walking boot on his right foot following the Steelers' 31-17 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Loudermilk suffered an ankle injury during the first quarter of Sunday's game and was unable to return. The 2021 fifth-rounder will undergo more tests to determine the severity of the injury and is in jeopardy of missing the Steelers' Week 3 clash against the Patriots. Logan Lee and Derrick Harmon (knee) would be candidates to see increased work at defensive end if Loudermilk misses time.

  • Jets' Justin Fields: Sustains concussion Sunday

    Fields sustained a concussion during Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com and Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports report.

    Before his departure from the Jets' 30-10 loss, Fields completed three of 11 pass attempts for 27 yards and added five carries for 49 yards. With the QB's concussion confirmed by the Jets, per Cimini, Fields now will have to progress through the NFL's protocol for head injuries in order to play next weekend against the Buccaneers. If Fields isn't cleared for Week 3 action, Tyrod Taylor would be in line to start in his place.

  • Bryce Oliver WR | HOU

    Titans' Bryce Oliver: Nursing knee injury

    Oliver is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams due to a knee injury, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    It's unclear when Oliver suffered the injury, but he doesn't seem likely to return given that Sunday's game is in its final minutes. Tyler Lockett could join Chimere Dike on a kickoff return if Oliver is not able to return.
