The Giants signed Gray to their practice squad Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Gray is back with the organization that drafted him back in 2023 after spending some time early in the season on the Browns' practice squad. With regular starter Cam Skattebo dealing with a hamstring issue, there's a chance Gray could end up being elevated to the active roster for the Giants' contest at Philadelphia in Week 9.

Coleman hauled in one catch for four yards on three targets in Sunday's 36-10 win against Baltimore.

Coleman entered the weekend having recorded a touchdown in three straight contests, but he couldn't continue that streak Sunday. In fact, the third-year wideout was almost entirely uninvolved, as his only reception was a four-yarder at the end of the first quarter. Coleman did lead Buffalo wideouts with 63 offensive snaps, so his lack of production wasn't due to a downturn in playing time. He'll look to bounce back in Week 9, though he and the Bills will be on the road facing a tough Minnesota defense.

Fagnano was limited at Monday's walkthrough due to an ankle injury.

Fagnano took a hit to his left knee while subbing in for Lamar Jackson (right thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) during Sunday's loss at Buffalo, but the former's health concern has been confirmed to be to his ankle. While Jackson is out indefinitely and Huntley "probably" won't play Thursday against the Jaguars, Fagnano has a chance to play in that contest, per head coach Jesse Minter. Being limited to kick off Week 9 prep is a step in that direction, but Fagnano may need to upgrade to full Tuesday and/or Wednesday to avoid a game designation.

Saylors (neck) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.

Saylor's neck injury is significant enough that Coach Dan Campbell felt comfortable declaring him doubtful to practice multiple days in advance. The running back couldn't return to Sunday's win over the Vikings because of the injury, and it remains unclear how long he will miss.

Johnson (neck) participated during practice Monday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Johnson missed the Giants' last two games before their bye in Week 8 due to a neck injury, but it looks like the last week of rest may have benefitted him. His status on the Giants' first official injury report of the week Wednesday should shed more light on whether he'll be available in Week 9 at Philadelphia.

Gonzalez is set to remain the starting kicker for the Dolphins' Week 9 matchup with the Lions, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Monday.

Coach Jeff Haffley implied that the Dolphins will utilize Gonzalez's remaining practice squad elevation to suit him up for Week 9. If the team uses the last elevation, the kicker will need to be signed to the active roster to play in any subsequent games this season. Gonzalez is 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and a perfect 5-for-5 on extra points through his two starts in 2026.

Jeudy did not catch his lone target Sunday in Cleveland's 27-6 loss to Pittsburgh.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson had a relatively productive day with 324 passing yards (albeit without a score), but Jeudy received only one of his targets. The veteran wideout logged his usual amount of paying time, notching a 60 percent offensive snap share to finish third among Cleveland wide receivers. It was the third time this season Jeudy has finished without a catch, but the other two instances were in Weeks 3 and 4, and he had been more involved of late, averaging 3.5 catches and 36.3 receiving yards over his previous four games. With that in mind, he could get back on track in Week 9 against a New Orleans defense that has been middle-of-the-pack against wideouts this year.

Lee (hamstring) is day to day but should have a chance to "test" his injury this week, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Lee suffered the hamstring injury during Carolina's loss to Green Bay on Thursday night. The fourth-round pick has played a starting role for the Panthers in the wake of injuries to corners Jaycee Horn (quadriceps), Mike Jackson (groin) and Akayleb Evans (triceps).

The 49ers signed Hodge to the practice squad Monday.

The 49ers waived Hodge with an injury settlement Oct. 1 after the wide receiver suffered a knee injury during Week 3. Hodge now returns as a healthy addition to a 49ers team dealing with injuries to key wide receivers such as Mike Evans (Achilles), Deebo Samuel (hamstring), Demarcus Robinson (ankle) and De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle).

Meyers was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report due to hamstring and ankle issues.

Meyers was capped at Monday's walkthrough as a result of the health concerns that impacted him in practice last week, but he still suited up Sunday versus the Colts, handling a 54 percent snap share and gathering in two of three targets for 24 yards. Considering he was able to play through them in Week 8, he's likely trending toward being available Thursday in Baltimore, but his status nonetheless will be watched to ensure as much.
