  • Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT

    Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Not on injury report

    Rodgers (back) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against Seattle.

    Rodgers told reporters Wednesday that back tightness impacted his mobility during a 34-32 win over the Jets this past Sunday. He's apparently moved past it, healthy for Week 2 and hoping to build on a four-TD showing in his Steelers debut.

  • Tyreek Hill WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Not on Week 2 injury report

    Hill, who was limited at practice last Wednesday and Thursday, is not listed on the Dolphins' Week 2 injury report, Travis Wingfield of the team's official site reports.

    Hill managed oblique and calf issues leading up to Week 1 action, but he didn't carry an injury designation ahead of Miami's 33-8 loss to the Colts on Sunday and is now off the injury report altogether. Per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, on the subject of recent domestic violence allegations pertaining to Hill -- that are being reviewed by the league, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network -- coach Mike McDaniel noted Wednesday, "we've been in communication with the NFL and will let the process play out." In Miami's regular-season opener, Hill was on the field for 62 percent of the team's snaps on offense and caught four of his six targets for 40 yards.

  • Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR

    Panthers' Hunter Renfrow: Dealing with rib injury

    Renfrow (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Renfrow finished Week 1 second on the Panthers in route share (81 percent) and third in targets (six), but with just 11 yards to show for it. He took 74 percent of his snaps in the slot, which is where he'll likely be again this Sunday if he's healthy enough to suit up at Arizona, squaring off with Cardinals slot corner Garrett Williams.

  • Bills' Shaq Thompson: Sits out again Wednesday

    Thompson (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

    Thompson also missed practice last Wednesday but was ultimately cleared to suit up for Buffalo's win over the Ravens in Week 1. The veteran linebacker is likely simply having his workload similarly managed heading into Sunday's game against the Jets. It's notable, though, that Thompson played exclusively on special-teams Week 1. Even once fully healthy, the 31-year-old may not see enough work on defense with the Bills to be included on the fantasy radar in IDP formats.

  • Tip Reiman TE | ARI

    Cardinals' Tip Reiman: Dealing with foot injury

    Reiman didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot injury that he sustained early on during this past Sunday's win at New Orleans, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Reiman handled 34 of 66 offensive snaps (52 percent) Week 1, which ranked behind top TE Trey McBride (97 percent) and ahead of fellow reserve Elijah Higgins (30 percent). While starting off this week with a DNP is cause for concern, Reiman also may be operating under a maintenance program for the health concern. In the end, his status may gain some clarity by week's end ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

  • Bills' Taron Johnson: Misses practice with quad injury

    Johnson (quadriceps) did not practice Wednesday.

    Johnson played 66 percent of defensive snaps during Buffalo's narrow Week 1 win over the Ravens, recording two solo tackles, but he's now emerged from the contest with a quadriceps injury. He'll have two more chances to upgrade his activity level at practice before the Bills assign him a preliminary injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets. On a positive note for Buffalo's cornerbacks corps, Tre'Davious White (groin) returned to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday.

  • Jaylen Waddle WR | DEN

    Dolphins' Jaylen Waddle: Limited at practice Wednesday

    Waddle (shoulder) was limited at practice Wednesday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    While seeing action on 65 percent of the Dolphins' snaps on offense in a Week 1 loss to the Colts, Waddle caught four of his five targets for 30 yards. Now that he's listed as having a shoulder issue, however, the starting wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Patriots is worth monitoring. Malik Washingtonand Nick Westbrook-Ikhine would be candidates to see more snaps this weekend in the event that Waddle is limited or sidelined.

  • Jaylen Wright RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Sits out practice again

    Wright (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Wright has yet to practice since undergoing right knee surgery in late August, and he appears an unlikely candidate to gain clearance in time to return Sunday against the Patriots. The Dolphins haven't yet, however, offered an expected timetable for the 2024 fourth-round pick's return. If Wright is sidelined again Week 2, Ollie Gordon and practice-squad player Jeff Wilson will remain the backups to undersized workhorse De'Von Achane.

  • Bengals' Dalton Risner: Next man up

    Risner played 36 snaps in Sunday's win over the Browns, filling in for the injured Lucas Patrick at right guard.

    A former Viking, Risner is now the Bengals' starting right guard, with Lucas Patrick on IR and Cordell Volson waived with an injury settlement.

  • Kayshon Boutte WR | HOU

    Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Limited in practice

    Boutte was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.

    Boutte briefly left Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Raiders after taking a hit in the first half, returning in short order and ultimately catching six of eight targets for 103 yards. His practice participation Wednesday, even in a limited capacity, puts Bourne on track to play Week 2 at Miami. He's one of the most popular waiver adds for fantasy this week, after leading New England in route share (82 percent), targets, air yards (137) and receiving yards this past Sunday.
