Roberts (elbow) did not practice Thursday.

Roberts was injured in the Raiders' Week 1 win over the Patriots and was unable to return to the contest. Tommy Eichenberg replaced Roberts in the lineup and would be in line to possibly start in Week 2 against the Chargers on Monday night if Roberts is deemed inactive.

Perryman (ankle) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

Perryman suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, which limited him to just eight defensive snaps and zero tackles. Perryman is a longshot to play against the Raiders on Monday, but a return to practice this week would give him a chance to play Week 2. Troy Dye will likely start alongside Daiyan Henley at inside linebacker if Perryman is in fact ruled out.

The Seahawks signed Griffin off their practice squad Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Griffin was elevated from the practice squad for the Seahawks' Week 1 loss to the 49ers, but the veteran cornerback didn't log any snaps against San Francisco. Griffin will provide added depth at the position.

Okudah (concussion) did not practice Thursday.

Okudah is in the league's concussion protocol, and starting cornerback Isaiah Rodgers (elbow) was limited Thursday after not being listed on the injury report Wednesday. Minnesota would likely need to add a cornerback if neither player can suit up Sunday night against the Falcons.

Rodgers (elbow) was limited in Thursday's practice.

Rodgers wasn't listed on the Vikings' injury report Wednesday. Mid-week additions to the injury report are rarely a good sign, but perhaps Rodgers will be able to get in a full session Friday. Rodgers started at cornerback in Week 1 and played all 67 defensive snaps against the Bears. With Jeff Okudah (concussion) also dealing with an injury, the Vikings' cornerback depth would be tested against Atlanta if neither can play Sunday night.

Way (back) is active for Thursday's game against the Packers.

Way popped up on Monday's injury report due to a back injury, but he's gone through pregame warmups without suffering a setback and will play in Thursday's contest. Way averaged 49.0 yards per punt on five attempts against the Giants in Week 1, with a long of 64 yards.

Wise (knee) is active for Thursday's game against the Packers.

Wise drew the questionable tag for Week 2 due to a knee injury, but the issue isn't severe enough for him to miss Thursday's game. The 2017 fourth-rounder logged three tackles (two solo) during the Commanders' Week 1 win over the Giants this past Sunday.

Scott (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice.

Scott missed Week 1 and was estimated as a full participant Wednesday, but with the Vikings back on the practice field Thursday, the running back's reps were limited. If healthy, Scott would be in line for RB3 duties this week after Ty Chandler (knee) was placed on injured reserve earlier in the day Thursday.

Smith (illness) was limited in Thursday's practice.

Smith missed the Vikings's Week 1 win over the Bears but appears to be progressing after a pair of limited practices to open the week. Theo Jackson would be in line to start if Smith is unable to play in Week 2 against Atlanta.

Johnson (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Packers but will serve as the Commanders' emergency third-string quarterback.

As the emergency quarterback, Johnson will be allowed to see the field Thursday only if Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariota become unavailable due to injury, illness or ejection.
