Campbell (ankle) is inactive Week 5 against Chicago.

Campbell has played just 10 total snaps all season, missing three of the first four games, so it should still be business-as-usual for the Green Bay defensive line without him.

Howard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Indianapolis, though he is listed as the team's emergency quarterback.

Howard is inactive once again, though he will serve as the Steelers' emergency signal-caller if Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph exit the contest due to injury, illness or ejection.

Hargrave (toe) is active Week 5 against the Bears.

Hargrave entered the week with a questionable designation after only logging a single limited practice, but the veteran nose tackle will ultimately suit up for what the team is hoping is his regular role in the defensive line rotation.

Morton (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Patriots' emergency third quarterback against the Raiders on Sunday.

Effectively, the rookie seventh-rounder is not allowed to play unless both Drake Maye and Tommy DeVito leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Hunt (ankle/knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Hunt exited the game at the end of the second quarter after assisting in stopping Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten on the goal line. The linebacker is dealing with multiple injuries, making it unlikely he will be able to return to the game.

Brown (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Brown might have re-aggravated a hamstring injury in the second half of Sunday's game. The 27-year-old will be further evaluated by medical staff to determine if he can return. Jarrian Jones may see more reps in his absence.

Ward (groin) is active for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.

Ward ended the practice week Friday by logging a full session, though his participation wasn't enough to avoid a questionable tag. The veteran has since been cleared to play in Week 5, meaning he will start opposite Sauce Gardner.

Barmore (shoulder) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.

Barmore will make his return after missing Week 4 against Buffalo and should resume his regular role in the defensive line rotation.

McCarthy is serving as the Giants No. 2 quarterback for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Jake Haener backed up Jameis Winston last week versus the Cardinals, but he's inactive as New York's third quarterback for Sunday's contest. The No. 2 job is now officially McCarthy's after having a couple weeks to familiarize himself with a new playbook after being acquired from the Vikings in late September. Winston remains the starter for now, but McCarthy seems likely to get a look at some point this year for the Giants.

Carter (abdomen) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Carter exited Sunday's game with an abdominal issue and will not return to the contest. Kenny Moore has taken over at strong safety.
