Nixon recorded five tackles (three solo) including 0.5 sacks and an interception during Sunday's 39-22 loss at Minnesota.

Nixon intercepted an ill-advised Kyler Murray pass on the second play of the game from scrimmage, setting up a Packers field goal. He has never recorded more than one interception in a season, and he'll be looking to change that starting in a Week 2 matchup against the Jets.

Winston posted 10 tackles (four solo) during the Titans' 23-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Winston and fellow safety Amani Hooker combined for 20 tackles, with the duo finishing second on the Titans in that category behind rookie second-round linebacker Anthony Hill (16). It's the second time Winston has recorded 10 tackles in a game since entering the league in 2025 as a third-round selection in the NFL Draft.

Hooker logged 10 tackles (six solo) during the Titans' 23-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Hooker was one of three Titans players to finish with 10-plus tackles, finishing second on the team in that category behind rookie second-rounder Anthony Hill (16). It was the first time Hooker recorded 10 or more combined tackles in a game since the 2023 regular season, when he reached that mark twice. The veteran safety will have his hands full Week 2 against Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley and the Eagles this Sunday.

Lutz made his sole field-goal attempt and only PAT in Monday night's 31-10 loss to Kansas City.

Lutz converted a 31-yard field goal and scored the extra point on the Broncos' second-drive touchdown. The kicker had a quiet night as Bo Nix and the offense couldn't get out of its own way, in a disappointing start to the season for new Broncos play-caller Davis Webb.

Hill recorded 16 tackles (two solo) and two pass defenses during the Titans' 23-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Week 1 wasn't the start to the regular season that Titans fans and head coach Robert Saleh were hoping for, but Hill -- a second-round selection of Tennessee in the 2026 NFL Draft -- was one of the few bright spots in Sunday's loss. He was one of three Titans players who played all 67 defensive snaps, and his 16 total tackles were tied for seventh-most in franchise history. Hill entered the regular season as a depth option at linebacker, but his play in Week 1 could earn him a permanent spot with the Titans' first-team defense from here on out, especially for as long as Cedric Gray (concussion) is sidelined.

Louis (knee) will miss a few weeks after exiting Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Raiders early, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Tuesday.

Louis suffered an MCL sprain, and the strong safety will not be able to return to the Dolphins for the Week 2 matchup against the 49ers. The fourth-round rookie was set to be a key piece on both the defensive and special teams units for the Dolphins. In Louis' absence, Julius Wood may be expected to cover some of the young players' responsibilities.

Luvu suffered a "minor" groin strain during Sunday's 24-22 loss to Philadelphia, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

According to Fowler, Luvu isn't expected to land on the injured reserve list. However, there's a chance he won't play in Sunday's NFC East showdown with the Cowboys. If Luvu can't suit up in Week 2, Leo Chenal is a candidate to see more action.

The Vikings hosted Ford (hamstring) for a workout Tuesday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

Ford suffered a hamstring injury during training camp with the Commanders. He's healthy enough to participate in a workout, and he could latch on with the Vikings if Jordan Mason misses time due to a thumb injury he sustained against the Packers in Week 1. Ford, a fifth-round selection of the Browns in the 2022 NFL Draft, spent the first four years of his career with Cleveland, and he logged 24 carries for 73 yards (3.0 YPC) while adding 26 catches (on 32 targets) for 103 yards across 13 regular-season games in 2025.

Sanders (knee/illness) did not participate in Tuesday's practice.

Sanders has come down with an illness and is not ready to suit up as he battles both his immune system and a lingering knee issue. The defensive tackle was inactive for Buffalo's Week 1 game against Houston and is trending toward missing Thursday night's game against Detroit as well.

Stoll was signed to the 49ers' practice squad Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Stoll was cut by Cleveland in late August after reaching an injury settlement with the team following an undisclosed injury that he suffered during the preseason. The tight end worked out with Tennessee on Sept. 8, proving that he was back to full health, and he has now found another opportunity with the Niners. Stoll played in 15 regular-season contests with the Saints in 2025, catching six of 11 targets for 46 yards and a touchdown while splitting his time between the offense and special teams.
