Tanner McKee QB | PHI
Eagles' Tanner McKee: Hanging on to starting job
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.

Jadarian Price RB | SEA
Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Activated for Monday night game
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.

Cam Skattebo RB | NYG
Giants' Cam Skattebo: Could be game-time call for Week 9
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.

YaYa Diaby LB | TB
Buccaneers' Yaya Diaby: Out Week 8 with MCL sprain
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.

Jack Campbell LB | DET
Lions' Jack Campbell: Team issues positive update
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.

Jeremy McNichols RB | WAS
Commanders' Jeremy McNichols: Mid-foot injury is concerning
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.

Christian Watson WR | GB
Packers' Christian Watson: Managing rib soreness ahead of Week 9
Packers passing game coordinator Jason Vrable said Monday that Watson (ribs) is sore but "doing great," Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Watson suffered a broken rib during this past Thursday win over the Panthers, and while Vrable notes with regard to Watson's status for this Sunday's game against the Patriots, "we'll see as the week goes," he added that the wideout will do everything possible to get his body ready in advance of Week 9 action. In the event that Watson is unavailable versus New England, added reps behind Matthew Golden would be available for Savion Williams, Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant.

Cam Skattebo RB | NYG
Giants' Cam Skattebo: Works off to side during practice Monday
Skattebo (hamstring) was spotted working out off to the side during the Giants' unofficial practice session Monday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Skattebo tweaked his hamstring at the end of a 42-yard run in overtime during the Giants' Week 7 win over the Texans, capping off a season-best performance during which he accounted for 121 yards and a touchdown on 18 touches. Though a well-timed Week 8 bye gave Skattebo additional time to recover, he may not be back to 100 percent as the Giants begin prepping for Sunday's game against the Eagles. The Giants will release their first official Week 9 injury report Wednesday, when it will be known whether Skattebo is healthy enough to practice fully or if he's operating with limitations.

Brandon Aiyuk WR | SF
49ers' Brandon Aiyuk: Pursuing return to NFL
Aiyuk is close to hiring new representation and is expected to file for reinstatement to the NFL in the near future, according to NFL reporter Jordan Schultz.
Aiyuk, 28, made his last NFL appearance Oct. 20, 2024, when he sustained multiple ligament tears in his right knee and required season-ending surgery. Though Aiyuk has likely been fully healthy for several months, his future in football has been murky due in part to his acrimonious relationship with the 49ers, who still hold his rights after placing him on the reserve/left squad list last December. GM John Lynch already announced back in January that Aiyuk wouldn't play for the 49ers again, but until the wideout formally files for reinstatement, he's unlikely to be traded or released. Aiyuk now appears to be willing to take that step, after previously indicating over the summer that he had no intention to apply for reinstatement.

Kyler Murray QB | MIN
Vikings' Kyler Murray: Undergoing evaluation on hamstring injury
Murray (hamstring), who is dealing with a sore hamstring, is undergoing a full evaluation to determine the extent of the issue, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
When asked whether or not Murray's hamstring soreness would affect his availability for next Monday night's game against the Bills, coach Kevin O'Connell said "I don't think we're there yet." Added context regarding the QB's Week 9 availability is in line to arrive no later than Thursday's practice report, but if Murray is unable suit up versus Buffalo, Carson Wentz would be next in line for Minnesota's signal-caller reps.
