Gordon injured his ribs during the Dolphins' 26-3 preseason loss to the Giants on Saturday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

The injury is a minor one, as head coach Jeff Hafley relayed Sunday that Gordon would have been cleared to return had it been a regular-season game. Gordon's practice participation over the coming days will be worth monitoring, as it will indicate whether the 2025 sixth-rounder will play in Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons. He is competing against Jaylen Wright for the RB2 role behind De'Von Achane.

Moore sustained an ankle injury during the Dolphins' 26-3 preseason loss to the Giants on Saturday, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Moore sustained the injury early in the first quarter while in pass coverage, which prompted his removal from Saturday's exhibition contest. Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley told reporters Sunday that Moore will "miss some time" due to his ankle injury. While a firm timeline wasn't provided, it seems like the rookie fourth-rounder will not play in Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons, with the hope that he'll be available for Week 1 against the Raiders on Sunday, Sept. 13.

Jackson (undisclosed) was discharged from a local New England hospital and joined his Eagles teammates for their return trip to Philadelphia following Saturday's 24-21 loss, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

Jackson suffered a serious injury on the opening kickoff after his head appeared to collide with Lan Larison's leg. Jackson left the field in an ambulance before being taken to a local hospital, where CT scans came back negative. It's the best-case scenario for the Arkansas product, but given what transpired Saturday, it seems unlikely that Jackson will play in Friday's preseason finale against Cincinnati.

Stribling (shoulder) returned to practice Sunday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Stribling -- who was sporting a no-contact jersey during the session -- had been considered day-to-day with a shoulder injury after playing in San Francisco's 41-17 preseason win over the Chargers last Thursday. The second-round rookie has stood out with 11 catches on 13 targets for 109 yards across two exhibition games, and he should stand to make an immediate impact in the 49ers' banged-up receiving corps. Stribling's final chance to play this preseason will come Thursday versus the Raiders.

Speed will miss the entire 2026 season due to a torn quadriceps tendon, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Speed underwent surgery over the offseason after scans revealed a total tear rather than a partial tear. He opened training camp on the active/PUP list with the hope that he would be available to play at some point in the regular season, but the injury is severe enough for Speed to miss the entire 2026 season. He'll shift his focus toward being fully healthy for the 2027 campaign.

McCaffrey (undisclosed) is in uniform for Sunday's training camp practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

McCaffrey has been held out of training camp practices and preseason games due to general "tightness." His return to the practice field Sunday for the first time in nearly three weeks is a positive sign, but it's still unclear what his activity level will be. The superstar running back is unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Raiders, with the focus instead on having McCaffrey 100 percent healthy for Week 1 against the Rams on Thursday, Sept. 10.

Kittle (Achilles) was activated from the active/PUP list Sunday.

Kittle has been ahead of schedule in his recovery from a torn Achilles that he suffered in January. His activation from the PUP list clears Kittle to participate in training camp practice, though he'll likely have his workload managed and be held out of Thursday's preseason finale against the Raiders. All signs are pointing to the veteran tight end having a chance to be available for the 49ers' regular-season opener against the Rams on Thursday, Sept. 10, with more context on that front slated to arrive in the coming days. In any case, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com suggests that Sunday's move is a sign that the team is confident that Kittle will be back before Week 5.

The Chargers placed Biadasz (knee) on injured reserve Sunday.

Biadasz's placement on injured reserve means the 2020 fourth-rounder will be sidelined for the entire 2026 season. He suffered multiple injuries to his left knee -- including his ACL -- during Tuesday's training camp practice. There was initial optimism that he would be available toward the tail end of the regular season, but Biadasz will now shift his focus toward being fully healthy for the 2027 campaign. Jake Slaughter figures to serve as the Chargers' starting center moving forward.

Price will not play in Sunday's preseason game against the Titans, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Not only will Price not play Sunday, he will also be held out of the Seahawks' preseason finale against the Chiefs this Friday. That means the first time that the rookie first-rounder can see in-game action will be Week 1 against the Patriots on Wednesday, Sept. 9. Price saw limited action in Friday's joint practice with the Titans, and head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters after that practice that Price is "ramping" up his workload over the final weeks of training camp and into the regular season. With Zach Charbonnet (knee) on the active/PUP list and Price sidelined, George Holani figures to serve as the Seahawks' lead back Sunday, with Velus Jones, Jacardia Wright and Anthony Hankerson also in the mix for snaps.

Tagovailoa's teammate, Michael Penix (knee), is in line to return to 11-on-11 drills in Monday's practice, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Penix had been participating in practice since training camp began but hadn't yet been cleared for contact or full-team work. However, coach Kevin Stefanski relayed Saturday that the QB has been given the green light to practice without restrictions. With one preseason game remaining, the Falcons have yet to settle on a starting quarterback, and Penix's looming return to team drills sets the stage for him to have an opportunity to compete with Tagovailoa on equal footing ahead of Week 1. It remains to be seen what the team's plans are for the two signal callers in Friday's exhibition finale against the Dolphins, and at this stage Stefanski hasn't outlined a timeline for when he'll make a call on his starter for Atlanta's Sept. 13 contest against the Steelers.
