Head coach Mike LaFleur revealed Monday that Knight is in the concussion protocol following Sunday's overtime win in Dallas, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Knight took a shoulder to the helmet from a Cowboys defender in the third quarter of Sunday's game, and after a visit to the locker room, he was ruled out with a concussion. It marked the second Cardinals RB to exit and not return in Week 8 -- Jeremiyah Love suffered a "new" ankle injury, per LaFleur -- so at the moment Tyler Allgeier is the top healthiest member of the team's backfield.

Coach Mike LaFleur noted Monday that the ankle injury Bourne suffered Sunday against the Cowboys could be season-ending, Darren Urban of Cardschatter reports.

We'll await further information ahead of Week 9 action, but it sounds like Bourne is on track to miss time, further taxing the health/depth of Arizona's WR corps, with Michael Wilson dealing with a rib issue. Next up in the pecking order behind the aforementioned duo are Reggie Virgil, Simi Fehoko and Devin Duvernay, but if Bourne indeed faces an extended absence, added personnel at the position figures to be sought by the Cardinals.

Head coach Mike LaFleur said Monday that Love suffered a "new" ankle injury during Sunday's overtime win at Dallas, and that he'll have an update on the running back later this week, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Prior to having his right ankle rolled up on while getting tackled Sunday, Love was dealing with a left ankle issue, so this is a bit of a non-update from LaFleur. Having said that, LaFleur's last comment indicates that he may touch on the nature of Love's injury and also its prognosis in the near future. Fellow RB Bam Knight has entered the concussion protocol in the wake of Week 8 action, leaving Tyler Allgeier as the unquestioned healthy lead back for the Cardinals at the moment.

Head coach Mike LaFleur announced that Minshew will step in as the Cardinals' new starting quarterback beginning with Sunday's game at Seattle, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Unsurprisingly, the Cardinals have opted to appoint Minshew to the top spot on the depth chart after he came on in relief of a struggling Jacoby Brissett and led a stirring comeback in Sunday's 33-30 overtime win over the Cowboys. In what was his first appearance of the season, Minshew completed 17 of 23 pass attempts for 188 yards and three touchdowns in just under two quarters' worth of action before Chad Ryland sealed the victory with a walk-off 42-yard field goal. Though his performance in future games will ultimately dictate how long he sticks around as the Cardinals' starter, Minshew is far from a lock to hold down the job for the balance of the season. If the 3-5 Cardinals eventually fade from playoff contention, LaFleur may want to give an extended look to rookie third-round pick Carson Beck, who will serve as Minshew's top backup in Week 9 while Brissett falls to third on the depth chart, per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site.

Head coach Nick Sirianni said Monday that McKee will remain the Eagles' starting quarterback, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports. "Tanner's our guy. We're not making any changes there," Sirianni said.

Since stepping into the starting role Week 6 in place of Jalen Hurts (calf), McKee has led the Eagles to an 0-3 record while completing 72 of 114 pass attempts (63.2 percent) for 638 yards (5.6 YPA), two touchdowns and two interceptions while adding 26 yards on six carries. Despite McKee's mediocre returns, the Eagles will stick with him as their starter for Sunday's matchup with the Giants, but another poor showing could prompt Sirianni to re-evaluate the quarterback situation following a Week 10 bye.

The Seahawks reinstated Price (chest) from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Bears, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

As Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Monday, Price will be back in action for Seattle after a minimum-length four-game stint on IR. Price, who initially sustained the chest injury Week 2 before being deactivated after experiencing an aggravation, carried 28 times for 119 yards and added four receptions for 21 yards on seven targets through Seattle's first three games. Though he closed Week 8 prep with a pair of full practices, Price may have to settle for a more muted role as part of a backfield committee in his return to action. Zach Charbonnet (knee) has been cleared to make his 2026 debut Monday, and Emanuel Wilson could also factor into the mix after rushing for a season-high 100 yards in last week's win over the Chiefs.

Giants head coach John Harbaugh said that Skattebo (hamstring) is day-to-day and could end up being a game-time decision for Sunday's tilt with the Eagles, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

After tweaking his hamstring late in the Giants' Week 7 overtime win over Houston, Skattebo was seen working off to the side Monday during an unofficial practice coming out of a bye week. Skattebo will still have three more opportunities to log on-field reps in Week 9, and the Giants should have a better idea about his status for Sunday's game based on what he's able to do in those sessions. Devin Singletary would be the next man up in the New York backfield if Skattebo is unable to play or is limited against the Eagles.

Head coach Todd Bowles said that Diaby (knee) has been diagnosed with an MCL sprain and won't be available for Sunday's game against the Bears, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Diaby exited this past Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons with the knee injury, which was revealed to be a Grade 2 MCL sprain following an MRI on Monday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Though Diaby will miss at least one game due to the injury, Bowles expressed hope that the Buccaneers' Week 10 bye would aid the edge rusher's recovery and allow him to avoid a stint on injured reserve.

The Lions announced Monday that "preliminary indications are positive" for Campbell (neck), who continues to rest and recover at a Detroit-area hospital.

Detroit won't share any further information on Campbell's status while evaluations remain ongoing, but head coach Dan Campbell said he met with the linebacker and his family at the hospital following Sunday's 19-15 win over the Vikings and noted that everyone was in good spirits, per Colton Pouncy of The Athletic. After finishing off a tackle of Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson in the fourth quarter, Campbell remained face down on the turf for several minutes before he was strapped to a spinal board and carted off the field.

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Monday that McNichols has a "mid-foot" injury and is concerned that the running back is dealing with something "serious," Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

McNichols is scheduled to undergo further testing Tuesday before the Commanders provide an updated diagnosis, but the 30-year-old looks like he could be at risk of missing time, if not requiring a stint on injured reserve. With Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) already on IR and in line to miss at least two more games, the Commanders may need add backfield depth behind Rachaad White and Austin Ekeler in the coming days. In addition to the possibility of adding a free-agent running back, the Commanders also have Devin Neal and Craig Reynolds on the practice squad.
