Smith recorded 10 total tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 41-40 loss to the Bills.

Smith led the team in stops in the defeat, reaching double-digit tackles in the regular-season opener after registering at least 10 tackles in nine regular-season games last year. The linebacker has compiled 158 and 154 tackles respectively in his first two campaigns in Baltimore, and he is now out to a strong start in 2025.

Gage reverted to San Francisco's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

This was almost certainly just a temporary move, as Gage is fully expected to be active for Sunday's Week 2 tilt in New Orleans. The veteran wideout finished third among the 49ers' wideouts in offensive snaps with 28 on Sunday versus Seattle, behind only Ricky Pearsall (64) and Jauan Jennings (50). Jennings hurt his shoulder in the victory and is awaiting results of an MRI, which should help determine his chances of playing against the Saints. If Jennings can't suit up Sunday, Gage figures to take on a more prominent role, especially with star tight end George Kittle slated to miss multiple weeks due to a hamstring injury. Gage didn't see any official targets in Week 1, but he had a pass thrown his way that went incomplete and was wiped out by a roughing-the-passer penalty. Aside from Pearsall and Gage, San Francisco's other healthy options at wide receiver are Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore and Kendrick Bourne, the latter of whom was signed on Monday and may need some time to acclimate to the team.

Granderson recorded six total tackles (five solo), including 1.5 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed in Sunday's 20-13 loss to Arizona.

Granderson was able to get to get quarterback Kyler Murray on two occasions in Week 1, compiling more than one sack in a contest for the first time since Week 3 of the 2024 campaign. The 28-year-old was registered 61 total tackles (36 solo), including 5.5 sacks, over 17 regular-season games last year, and he is now off to a strong start in 2025.

Werner recorded nine total tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Cardinals.

Werner finished tied for first on the team in tackles with fellow linebacker Demario Davis in Week 1, and he was also able to bring down Kyler Murray for his first sack of the year. The 26-year-old has now recorded at least nine takedowns in three consecutive regular-season games dating back to last year.

Moore reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday.

Moore played 19 snaps on offense and eight on special teams and ended up hauling in his only target for 34 yards during Sunday's win over the Giants. He could be elevated again for the team's Week 2 matchup versus the Packers, considering he outplayed Luke McCaffrey on Sunday.

Wilson reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Wilson was elevated to the active roster to provide depth in the backfield for Week 1 against the Colts after Jaylen Wright (knee) was ruled out, but the former played just two snaps on offense without showing up on the box score otherwise. Wilson would be a top candidate to be elevated for Miami's Week 2 AFC East clash against New England if Wright remains sidelined.

Stoll reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday.

Stoll was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Cardinals and logged 18 snaps on offense and nine on special teams. He can be elevated two more times this season before New Orleans would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

Schrader reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday.

Schrader was elevated from the practice squad for the Rams' Week 1 win over the Texans and logged four snaps on special teams without recording any statistics. With Kyren Williams and Blake Corum set to handle the vast majority of the backfield reps for the Rams, Schrader's path to gameday elevations likely depends on the status of Jarquez Hunter, who was a healthy inactive Week 1.

Patterson reverted to Miami's practice squad Monday.

Patterson served as the team's kicker with Jason Sanders (hip) on injured reserve but didn't attempt either a field goal or extra point during Sunday's blowout loss versus the Colts. Patterson will likely be elevated again for the Miami's Week 2 matchup versus the Patriots.

Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Bachman was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 20-13 win over the Patriots, failing to reel in his only target while playing two offensive snaps. Additionally, the wide receiver had a tackle on kick coverage while logging 15 snaps on special teams. Bachman is eligible to be elevated two more times this season before Las Vegas would have to officially sign him to the active roster.
