Sanborn recorded six tackles (two solo) during Thursday's 24-20 loss at Philadelphia.

Sanborn played a significant role in the Cowboys' season opener, playing 48 of their 63 defensive snaps, and he came away with a decent day on the stat sheet to show for it. It's not likely Dallas will see such a heavy dose of the run again in Week 2 when they host the Giants, so Sanborn could spend more time in coverage in that contest.

Worthy (shoulder) won't return to Friday's game versus the Chargers in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

Worthy took a hit directly to his right shoulder from TE Travis Kelce on the first drive of the contest while running an underneath route. He was in visible pain as he went to the sideline and then was escorted off the field and immediate to the X-ray room before being ruled out. With Rashee Rice suspended for the first six games of the season and Jalen Royals (knee) inactive, the Chiefs are left with Hollywood Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton, Jason Brownlee and Nikko Remigio for the rest of Week 1.

DeJean logged five tackles (three solo) and one pass defense during Thursday's 24-20 win over Dallas.

DeJean played all 61 of the Eagles' defensive snaps Thursday, and he was lined up in the slot corner for 48 of those snaps. The 2024 second-rounder established himself as a key member of the Eagles' defense during his rookie season, and his versatility to line up across multiple positions will keep him on the field. DeJean and the Eagles face the Chiefs in Week 2 in a Super Bowl LIX rematch -- in that championship game, the 22-year-old recorded a pick-six to help Philadelphia hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

Blankenship tallied three solo tackles in Thursday's 24-20 win over the Cowboys.

Blankenship joined Zack Baun, Cooper DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell as the four Eagles players to play every single defensive snap in Thursday's regular-season opener. Blankenship was flagged for an unnecessary roughness penalty on a late hit on tight end Jake Ferguson late in the third quarter that put the Cowboys in the red zone, but the former was bailed out after Mitchell jumped on a Miles Sanders fumble on the next play. Blankenship should stay busy in the Eagles' Super Bowl LIX rematch against the Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Wilson recorded one tackle in Thursday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles.

It was an uninspiring line for Wilson, but he was on the field for 100 percent of Dallas' defensive snaps, so his role doesn't appear to be in danger. After topping 80 stops in each of the last two seasons, he should be in line to be more involved in future contests.

Baun logged nine tackles (six solo) and one pass defense during the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday.

Baun was one of four Eagles players to play all 61 defensive snaps in Thursday's regular-season opener, with the 2020 third-rounder leading the way in the tackling department. He established himself as an integral piece of the Eagles' first-team defense in 2024, when he cracked 100-plus tackles in a season for the first time in his six-year NFL career. Baun and the Eagles will hit the road in Week 2 in a Super Bowl LIX rematch against the Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Hooker tallied nine tackles (four solo) during the Cowboys' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Thursday.

Hooker tied with Kenneth Murray for the most tackles on the Cowboys, and the duo each played all 63 defensive snaps in Thursday's regular-season opener. Hooker played 1,008 defensive snaps last season and will operate as an every-down safety alongside Donovan Wilson in 2025. The Cowboys host the NFC East rival Giants on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Worthy is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Chargers in Sao Paolo, Brazil due to a shoulder injury.

Worthy was a victim of some friendly fire on the Chiefs' opening possession when he was sideswiped by TE Travis Kelce on an underneath route. He remained down for a bit before making his way to the sideline in visible pain. After team trainers checked him out, Worthy then made his way to the locker room.

Sorrell (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

The rookie fourth-rounder has been limited in practice all week while tending to a left knee injury. If healthy, Sorrell is expected to serve in a rotational role at defensive end and could see additional work on defense if the Packers elect to limit Micah Parsons' (back) snap count.

Fisher does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams.

Fisher suffered an ankle injury during the preseason and began the week as a limited participant in practice. However, he engaged in a full session Friday and will be ready to serve as a depth tackle against the Rams.
