  • Patrick Queen LB | PIT

    Steelers' Patrick Queen: Returns to Sunday's game

    Queen (ribs) has returned to Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.

    Queen went to the medical tent in the second quarter of Sunday's game due to a rib injury, but he has been cleared to return to the contest. The Steelers are already without Isaiahh Loudermilk (ankle) for the rest of the game, and Alex Highsmith (ankle) is doubtful to come back, so Queen's return is a boost for the Steelers' defense.

  • Lions' Shane Zylstra: Will not return Sunday

    Zylstra (ankle) is out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Bears.

    The tight end did not record a stat before exiting earlier in the first half. Detroit still has two tight ends, Sam LaPorta and Brock Wright, ahead of Zylstra on the depth chart.

  • Jaylon Johnson CB | CHI

    Bears' Jaylon Johnson: Questionable to return due to groin

    Johnson suffered a groin injury in Sunday's Week 2 game against Detroit and has been deemed questionable to return, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Johnson missed Week 1 due to a groin issue, so he may have aggravated the same injury. He headed to the locker room during the first half Sunday, and the results of his evaluation will likely determine if he's able to return. Nahshon Wright has stepped in at cornerback in Johnson's stead.

  • Siran Neal DB | SF

    49ers' Siran Neal: Being checked for concussion

    Neal is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Neal was injured on kickoff coverage in the first half and is being evaluated for a concussion. He's the only backup safety on the active roster behind Ji'Ayir Brown and Marques Sigle, but Upton Stout or Chase Lucas could rotate from the slot corner to safety if needed.

  • Joe Burrow QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Burrow: Exits Sunday's game

    Burrow headed to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Jaguars after sustaining an unspecified injury, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Prior to his exit from the contest, Burrow -- who walked off the field with the assistance of trainers, per Baby -- completed seven of his 13 pass attempts for 76 yards and a TD. In Burrow's absence, Jake Browning is in at QB for the Bengals.

  • Tony Adams SAF | TEN

    Jets' Tony Adams: Questionable to return Sunday

    Adams (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills.

    The safety was leading the Jets in tackles with five (four solo) at the time of his exit in the second quarter. Adams also played 54 defensive snaps and recorded six tackles (three solo) in the team's Week 1 loss to the Steelers. Isaiah Oliver and Malachi Moore are New York's backup safeties.

  • Patrick Queen LB | PIT

    Steelers' Patrick Queen: Exits with injury to ribs

    Queen (ribs) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against Seattle, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

    Queen had to go to the medical tent during the second quarter, and he's been deemed questionable to return to the game. Cole Holcomb has entered at linebacker in Queen's stead.

  • 49ers' Kyle Juszczyk: Won't return vs. New Orleans

    Juszczyk has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Saints due to a concussion, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Juszczyk was evaluated on the sidelines after taking a hit to the head in the first half of Sunday's game, and the veteran fullback has been diagnosed with a concussion. He will not be allowed to return to Sunday's game, and he'll have to pass the league's five-step concussion protocol in order to play in Week 3 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Sept. 21. Juszczyk is the only fullback on the 49ers' active roster, but tight ends Luke Farrell, Jake Tonges or Brayden Willis could be deployed as a backfield blocker for the rest of Sunday's contest.

  • Rams' Ahkello Witherspoon: Out for game Sunday

    Witherspoon (shoulder) is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    The starting right cornerback did not record a stat before exiting in the second quarter. In his absence, Emmanuel Forbes will likely step forward as the Rams' "top outside corner," per Nate Atkins of The Athletic.

  • Kyle Van Noy MLB | MIN

    Ravens' Kyle Van Noy: Exits with hamstring injury

    Van Noy is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns due to an ankle injury, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Van Noy appeared to suffer the injury early in the second quarter, and he has gone to the sidelines to undergo further tests to determine the severity of the issue. Tavius Robinson and rookie second-rounder Mike Green should see their defensive snap counts increase for as long as Van Noy is out of the game.
