Sadiq is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns after exiting in the third quarter to be evaluated for a head injury.

The Jets will presumably put Sadiq through concussion tests before determining whether he's fit to return to the game. Prior to exiting the contest, Sadiq recorded two catches for three yards on three targets and also lost a fumble.

Rourke (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Rourke is inactive but will not be the emergency third quarterback for the 49ers. The team seems content with Brock Purdy and Mac Jones and does not appear to need the "break-glass" button that the 49ers themselves voted to add during the 2023 offseason.

Meeks (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Arizona.

Meeks appeared in the Lions' first four games of the 2026 campaign but will be a healthy scratch in Week 5. The 23-year-old hasn't had a productive season, catching his only target for eight yards.

Nolen (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Nolen was deemed questionable Friday after being limited in the Cardinals' Thursday and Friday prep sessions. The defensive tackle has recovered from the calf injury enough to suit up for Sunday's contest.

The Patriots ruled out Henderson (ankle) for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Raiders, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

Initially considered questionable to return to the game after leaving in the second quarter due to the right ankle injury, Henderson didn't join the Patriots on the sideline to begin the second half before he was ruled out shortly after the third quarter got underway. He'll finish the afternoon with 22 yards on four carries to go with one catch for 16 yards. With Henderson sidelined for the rest of the contest, the Patriots will be left with Corey Kiner as their lone option behind No. 1 back Rhamondre Stevenson.

Holani (ribs/knee) is active for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the 49ers.

Holani took a questionable tag into the weekend after practicing in limited fashion all week due to a rib injury, and as of Friday, a knee issue as well. Nevertheless, the third-year back will play through both injuries in Sunday's NFC West showdown, when he's expected to operate as a complementary option to current lead back Emanuel Wilson.

Beck (coach's decision) is inactive and is designated as Arizona's emergency third quarterback for Sunday's matchup versus the Lions.

Beck remains the third option behind Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew. The rookie third-rounder will only enter the game if both Brissett and Minshew are unable to continue playing.

Thomas failed to catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Eagles.

Getting the ball to Parker Washington was once again was the primary focus for Trevor Lawrence, as the fourth-year wideout popped for a 6-124-2 line on nine targets, and Thomas didn't do anything with the little volume he got to prove he should be a bigger part of the game plan. Thomas has gotten three targets ore fewer in four of five games to begin the season, leading to a meager 9-105-1 line on 18 targets, and there's little reason to expect a breakout in Week 6 against the Texans.

Minshew is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Minshew is the backup quarterback behind Jacoby Brissett for the Cardinals. Minshew has been consistently active for the team, while Carson Beck (coach's decision) has been inactive as the team's emergency third QB.

Matlock (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Eric Smith of the team's official site reports.

Matlock was activated off injured reserve Saturday, so despite carrying a questionable designation, most assumed he would be back on the field after sitting out the first four games of the 2026 campaign.
