Thomas (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's estimated report, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Thomas injured his ankle during the first half of Sunday's 32-29 loss to the 49ers and did not return. The short week doesn't give Thomas much time to recover, but his practice participation over the next two days will shed light on his chances of playing against the Broncos on Thursday.

Hufanga (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on the Broncos' estimated injury report Monday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.

Hufanga suffered an ankle injury during the team's 23-17 win over the Chargers on Sunday, and the team will have a short week prior to facing the Seahawks on Thursday night. The safety will have two more chances to participate at practice this week, and if he can't go Thursday, Devon Key would be the top candidate to draw a start in Hufanga's place within Denver's secondary.

Charles (knee) was estimated as a full practice participant on Monday's injury report, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Charles' 21-day practice window opened this past Wednesday, but he was not activated from injured reserve before the Seahawks' 32-29 loss to the 49ers on Sunday. He could be removed from IR ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos, but Charles would have to log a full session during a normal practice to have a realistic chance of playing against Denver.

Hemingway is in concussion protocol ahead of Week 6 versus Buffalo, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Hemingway exited Sunday's 45-17 loss to the Patriots in the first half with what was initial described as a neck injury. The defensive lineman is dealing with a concussion in addition to the potential neck injury, and his status for Week 6 is now uncertain. Hemingway will have three chances to return to practice and clear concussion protocol prior to the team's upcoming matchup with the Bills.

Head coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday that Harris is "week-to-week" due to a hamstring injury that he sustained during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Broncos, Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com reports.

Harris entered Sunday as the Chargers' WR1 due to the absence of Quentin Johnston (chest) while Ladd McConkey (foot) was available only as an emergency option, per Insdorf. Harris caught two of four passes for 16 yards before sustaining a hamstring injury, which was severe enough for him to not return. Given Harbaugh's update, coupled with the Chargers' bye scheduled for Week 7, it seems likely that Harris will be held out for Week 6 against the Chiefs, with an eye toward being available for Week 8 against the Rams on Sunday, Nov. 1. Given the Chargers' injuries to the wide receiver position, the team will need to lean more heavily on Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Theo Wease, Derius Davis and tight ends Charlie Kolar and Oronde Gadsden in the passing game.

Nubin (neck) is considered day-to-day ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup with the Saints, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Nubin was forced to exit Sunday's 27-27 overtime tie with the Commanders in the fourth quarter with a neck injury. The safety appears to have avoided a major injury, and his status at practice Wednesday will provide more clarity towards his availability for Week 6 versus New Orleans.

Sills (hamstring) had his 21-day practice window opened by the Buccaneers on Monday, Scott Smith & Brianna Dix of the team's official website reports.

Sills has been on injured reserve since late August while nursing a hamstring injury, but he will now have the chance to return to practice. The wide receiver played in all 17 of the Falcons' regular-season contests in 2025, and once healthy, he'll provide Tampa Bay with another veteran option on offense.

Lake (hip) is active for Monday's game against the Bills, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Lake has been cleared to play through a hip injury after going through pregame warmups. The fifth-year pro has played every single defensive snap through Rams' first four games of the regular season, accumulating 29 tackles (18 solo), seven pass defenses (one interception) and one forced fumble in that span.

Simpson (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Rams' emergency third quarterback against the Bills on Monday, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Simpson will continue to operate as the Rams' emergency QB3, which means he cannot play Monday unless both Matthew Stafford and Stetson Bennett leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Jackson (knee) is inactive against the Rams on Monday.

Jackson was initially listed as questionable due to a knee injury, which is severe enough for the second-year pro to miss his first game of the regular season. Greg Gaines and DeWayne Carter are in line for more rotational reps on the Bills' defensive line due to Jackson's absence.
