Bass made his lone field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 24-16 win over the Chargers.

The Bills finally got on the scoreboard at the 6:02 mark of the second quarter on a 28-yard, chip-shot field goal by Bass, with the veteran kicker making each of his next three extra-point attempts. He's made all four of his field-goal attempts (all within 50 yards) and has gone 11-for-12 on extra-point tries through three regular-season games, and his scoring floor should be elevated week-to-week as long as Josh Allen is running the Bills' offense. Buffalo wraps up its three-game home stand in a Week 4 AFC East showdown against New England.

McMillan aggravated the left knee injury he dealt with during training camp, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

McMillan departed Sunday's Week 3 loss to Minnesota after logging just two offensive snaps. He underwent an MRI on Monday, the results of which reportedly indicated that the wideout is dealing with an aggravation of the issue he picked up during camp in early August rather than a new injury. However, it's not yet clear how serious McMillan's injury is or how much more time, if any, he's slated to potentially miss. The Buccaneers' practice reports throughout this week should provide more clarity about McMillan's likelihood of suiting up Sunday versus Green Bay.

The Giants waived Haener on Monday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

The Giants signed Haener from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday in anticipation of Sunday's game against the Titans. The quarterback was utilized as a backup to Jameis Winston due to the injury to Jaxson Dart (knee). The team traded with the Vikings for quarterback J.J. McCarthy on Monday, meaning Haener's spot on the active roster has been filled by a younger option. If the quarterback clears waivers, there is a decent chance he ends up back with the Giants on the practice squad.

Head coach Dave Canales expressed confidence Monday that Lloyd (calf) would be back at practice ahead of the Panthers' Week 4 home game against the Lions, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.

A calf injury prevented Lloyd from playing in the Panthers' 21-18 loss to the Browns on Sunday, but the fifth-year pro is trending toward returning for Week 4. Wednesday's injury report will provide more clarity on Lloyd's status, and he would avoid an injury designation entirely with a full practice over the coming days.

McKee (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the team's emergency third quarterback Monday night against the Bears.

McKee will operate as the team's No. 3 QB for the third straight week to open the regular season. The 26-year-old will only be eligible to enter the contest if both starter Jalen Hurts and top backup Andy Dalton sustain injuries.

Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that Thompson (hamstring) is expected to miss four-plus weeks, Patrik Walker of the team's official site reports.

Thompson looks like a candidate for injured reserve after he went down with a hamstring injury in the second quarter of Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Ravens in Rio de Janeiro. The loss of Thompson is yet another hit to the Cowboys' safety group, as Malik Hooker (forearm) has missed the last two games, and P.J. Locke (foot) was moved to IR on Saturday. Before sustaining the injury, Thompson had played every defensive snap through the Cowboys' first nine-plus quarters of the season, logging 17 tackles in the process.

Conner (knee) has a good chance to play in Sunday's game against the Raiders, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reported Monday.

Conner's game-day status will rely on a promising week of practice. The strong safety was a limited participant in the lead-up to Sunday's win over the Dolphins but was ultimately unable to suit up for the contest. Conner will likely need to achieve full participation in at least one session before being greenlit to play in the Chiefs' divisional matchup with the Raiders on Sunday.

Greenard (pectoral) is active for Monday night's matchup with Chicago.

Greenard will make his return to action after missing the team's first two contests of the regular season while recovering from a pectoral injury. The 29-year-old registered 3.0 sacks over 12 regular-season contests with Minnesota in 2025 before being traded to Philadelphia in April, and he'll look to get off to a strong start against the Bears to open his 2026 campaign.

Head coach Sean McVay said Monday that Parkinson is day-to-day due to an AC joint sprain in his shoulder that he picked up during the Rams' 30-26 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

The Rams are already expecting Terrance Ferguson (ankle) to not be available for Week 4 against the Eagles this Sunday, and Los Angeles could also be without their top tight end in Parkinson. Wednesday's injury report will be the first indication of Parkinson's chances of playing Week 4, but if he's not cleared to suit up, then the Rams would lean more heavily on Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen and rookie second-rounder Max Klare. While Parkinson failed to haul in his lone target against Denver, it's worth noting that Higbee put together an 8-62-1 receiving line on 11 targets, which was second-most behind wide receiver Davante Adams (13) among Rams pass catchers.

Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Ferguson "likely" will be sidelined for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Ferguson missed a portion of Sunday's loss at Denver to get X-rays on an ankle injury, and while he was cleared to return, he finished fourth among Rams tight ends in offensive snaps (22 of 86) behind Tyler Higbee (61), Colby Parkinson (37) and Davis Allen (31). Through three games this season, Ferguson had a 6-54-1 line on nine targets in Week 2 versus the Giants and one catch (on three targets) for nine yards in the other two contests. Now that he's slated to miss some time, the aforementioned trio likely will handle the bulk of the TE workload for L.A., though rookie Max Klare might finally see his first offensive plays.
