Head coach Kevin O'Connell said Demmings will miss some time due to a hamstring injury, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Demmings injured his hamstring during the second half of Sunday's win over the Buccaneers and is now expected to miss the Week 4 matchup versus Miami, at minimum. The rookie fifth-round pick failed to record any tackles across his first three outings and should continue to serve a depth role once healthy.

Boston caught two passes on four passes for 41 yards during the Browns' 21-18 win over the Panthers on Sunday. He also caught a two-point conversion.

The rookie second-rounder was held without a catch until the fourth quarter, when he caught 28- and 13-yard passes from Deshaun Watson before the duo connected on a two-point conversion late in the fourth quarter to extend the Browns' lead to three points. Boston was unable to record a touchdown catch for a third-straight game, though he still finished Sunday's contest as the Browns' second-leading receiver behind tight end Harold Fannin (51). Boston, Fannin and rookie first-rounder KC Concepcion will continue to serve as Watson's top targets in the passing game, with Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond working in rotation. Boston will take a 9-195-2 receiving line (on 15 targets) into Thursday's AFC North showdown against the Steelers.

Powers-Johnson (groin) is being evaluated to reveal the extent of his injury, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Powers-Johnson was questionable to return to Sunday's win over the Saints and was never able to reenter the contest. More clarity on the severity of the offensive lineman's injury and potential recovery timetable should be gleaned in coming days.

The Dolphins released Ferrell from their practice squad Monday.

Ferrell had already been elevated the maximum three times this season, so Miami would have needed to sign him to the active roster for him to be eligible to play again. The 2019 first-round pick logged three tackles (one solo) across his three outings and will now look to catch on with another team.

The Packers placed Bako-Bewele (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Bako-Bewele sustained a complete tear of his right patellar tendon in the Packers' Week 2 overtime win over the Jets. The right tackle is out for the season and has thus been placed on injured reserve. Laken Tomlinson is the new reserve offensive lineman for the team, and Anthony Belton is expected to be the starting right tackle for the remainder of the 2026 season.

Ferguson caught three of five targets for 23 yards and a touchdown while also losing a fumble during Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Ravens.

Ferguson was able to reach the end zone for the second straight week, connecting with quarterback Dak Prescott for a 19-yard score in the third quarter. The tight end did have a mishap early in the fourth quarter, losing a fumble after reeling in a short pass from Prescott. Ferguson has now caught nine of 11 targets for 72 yards and three touchdowns over three contests this season, and he'll face a tough test against the Texans dominant defense in Week 4.

Doubs hauled in three of four targets for 49 yards during the Patriots' 35-6 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Doubs finished second on the Patriots in both catches and receiving yards to Mack Hollins, the latter of whom finished with a 6-87-0 receiving line on nine targets. Doubs and Hollins will continue to operate as Drake Maye's top targets in the absence of A.J. Brown (ankle), who will miss at least the next two weeks while on injured reserve. Doubs will take a 6-145-0 receiving line on 11 targets into a Week 4 road matchup against Buffalo.

Diggs caught four of seven targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 33-31 win over the Seahawks.

Diggs finished second on the team in targets behind fellow wideout Terry McLaurin, but he was unable to make it three straight games with a touchdown. Diggs has now recorded at least four receptions in each of his first three contests as a member of the Commanders, reeling in 13 of 22 targets for 135 yards and three scores. Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota proved to be a viable starter in Week 3 with Jayden Daniels (elbow) unavailable, so fantasy managers don't have to worry about Diggs moving forward.

Campbell (knee) was estimated as a limited participant in Monday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Campbell was unable to suit up for the Browns' 21-18 win over the Panthers Sunday due to ankle, knee and hip injuries. The outside cornerback was projected as a limited participant Monday, continuing a streak of partial practices as he recovers from multiple issues. If Campbell cannot upgrade to a full participant in practice by Wednesday, it is unlikely he will be able to play in Thursday's game against the Steelers.

Slater suffered a significant foot injury during Tennessee's loss to the Giants on Sunday, Easton Freeze of AtoZSports.com reports.

Slater managed to finish the game but will now seemingly be forced to miss extended time. With starting right guard Fernando Carmona (foot) also sustaining an injury during Sunday's loss, the Titans could find themselves short-handed along the interior of the offensive line, as Peter Skoronski and Atonio Mafi are currently the only healthy guards on the active roster.
