Johnson (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Johnson was evaluated for an ankle injury in the first half, and the injury is severe enough for him to be ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest. Micheal Clemons will see an uptick in playing time the rest of the way due to Johnson's injury.

Johnson (groin) is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Lions, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.

The cornerback recorded two solo tackles before leaving the contest. Johnson missed Week 1 with a groin injury, so it's possible that this is the same issue. Nahshon Wright has replaced him at left corner.

McKee (thumb) is inactive but will serve as the Eagles' emergency third-string quarterback against the Chiefs on Sunday.

McKee is still recovering from a fractured right thumb that he suffered during training camp. He will be the Eagles' third-string quarterback for Sunday's Super Bowl LIX rematch, which means he'll only see the field if both Jalen Hurts and Sam Howell were to leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Van Noy (hamstring) is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

The linebacker recorded one solo tackle before exiting in the second quarter. Tavius Robinson and Mike Green are the next men up at outside linebacker.

Campbell (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Campbell was claimed off waivers by Panthers in late August after failing to make the Chargers' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He has been a healthy scratch through the first two weeks of the campaign, and the undrafted rookie's next opportunity to make his NFL regular-season debut is Week 3 against the Falcons on Sunday, Sept. 21.

Bartch (ankle) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Saints, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The starting left guard suffered the injury in the first half. Connor Colby is his backup.

Horn (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Horn, the Panthers' sixth-round pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, will have to wait to make his regular-season debut until at least Week 3 against the Falcons on Sunday, Sept. 21. David Moore and Brycen Tremayne will be the Panthers' depth wideouts behind Hunter Renfrow, Xavier Legette and rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan.

Ekwonu (appendectomy) is active for Sunday's Week 2 game against Arizona.

Ekwonu had to miss Week 1 while continuing to recover from an appendectomy, but he's progressed enough to suit up against the Cardinals. He's slated to start at left tackle.

Johnson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills due to an ankle injury.

Johnson was being evaluated in the blue medical tent in the second quarter and is questionable to return. Micheal Clemons should see an uptick in defensive snaps opposite Will McDonald at defensive end for as long as Johnson is out of the game.

Ward (cramps) has returned to Sunday's game against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Ward briefly left in the first half due to cramping, but the veteran corner has been cleared to return for the start of the third quarter. Jarrick Bernard-Converse will return to a rotational role at outside corner behind Ward and Greg Newsome.
