  • Jaylen Watson CB | LAR

    Rams' Jaylen Watson: Diagnosed with dislocated shoulder

    Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Watson suffered a dislocated shoulder in Sunday night's loss to the Broncos, and he's likely to miss next Sunday's game against the Eagles, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    It's another big loss for this veteran Rams team, as the defense is already dealing with injuries to Myles Garrett (knee) and Kamren Kinchens (hamstring) on defense while Puka Nacua (hip) has missed the last two games and Terrance Ferguson (ankle) appears likely to miss Week 4 for the offense. Emmanuel Forbes saw increased reps opposite Trent McDuffie at cornerback against Denver following Watson's injury.

  • Buccaneers' Kenny Gainwell: Struggles as rusher in Week 3 loss

    Gainwell turned three carries into minus-four yards and added two catches on five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Vikings. He also returned six kickoffs for 160 yards and added a tackle.

    Gainwell is now averaging just 2.1 yards per carry through the first three games of the regular season. He was utilized heavily as a pass catcher with the Steelers in 2025, but so far he has only six receptions (on 10 targets) for 22 yards. His 32 snaps on offense was slightly fewer than Bucky Irving (36), but the scoring floor of Gainwell and the rest of the Buccaneers' skill players will likely be lower for at least the next three weeks without Baker Mayfield (thumb) at the helm. Undrafted free agent Jalon Daniels will be the Bucs' QB1 in Mayfield's absence, starting with a Week 4 home tilt against the Packers this Sunday.

  • Jalen Ramsey CB | PIT

    Steelers' Jalen Ramsey: Now dealing with wrist injury

    Ramsey (wrist) was estimated as a limited participant on Monday's practice report, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    According to Brooke, Ramsey had a sling on his right arm Monday. The veteran safety has played all 172 defensive snaps through three games, recording 17 tackles (nine solo) and one pass breakup. If he's unable to play Thursday night against Cleveland, Rayshawn Jenkins would become an every-down player alongside Jaquan Brisker with Daylen Everette likely seeing more snaps as the third cornerback.

  • Zay Flowers WR | BAL

    Ravens' Zay Flowers: Slated for full workload Week 4

    Head coach Jesse Minter said Monday that he expects Flowers to carry a full workload in Week 4 against the Titans on Sunday, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official site reports.

    Flowers had his workload limited during Sunday's 34-31 win against the Cowboys in Brazil. Despite playing only 21 snaps on offense, the fourth-year wide receiver finished with five catches on six targets for 84 yards to lead the Ravens pass catchers in all three categories. Flowers will be Lamar Jackson's favorite target heading into Week 4 against a Titans defense that ranks eighth in the league in passing yards allowed per game (189.0).

  • Steelers' Joey Porter: Estimated as full Monday

    Porter (conditioning) was estimated as a full participant on Monday's practice report, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Porter has been practicing for weeks but has yet to play in a game this season due to what is believed to be more related to his contract than any conditioning or injury issues. It's unclear if he'll play Thursday night against the Browns. Asante Samuel and Jamel Dean will continue to hold it down at cornerback for the Steelers for however long Porter is sidelined.

  • Jeshaun Jones WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jeshaun Jones: Suspension lifted

    The NFL lifted its suspension of Jones on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Jones was suspended by the league for the first three games of the regular season due to a violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy. The Maryland product will be available for the Vikings' Week 4 home tilt against the Dolphins on Sunday, though Jones' playing time figures to be limited to special teams rather than on offense.

  • Colbie Young WR | CIN

    Bengals' Colbie Young: Set to miss Week 4

    Young (knee) is not expected to play in Week 4 against the Jaguars, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

    Young suffered a left knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Steelers, and he was forced to miss the remainder of the contest. Head coach Zac Taylor provided an update Monday, explaining the wide receiver isn't dealing with a long-term injury, but he will be sidelined for at least one game. The Bengals are expected reevaluate the injury after Week 4 and then determine the next steps for Young.

  • Miles Kitselman: Back in Detroit on PS deal

    The Lions signed Kitselman (leg) to the practice squad Monday.

    Kitselman reached an injury settlement with the Lions during training camp in mid-August due to a leg injury he sustained in practice. He's since been medically cleared to sign with a team, and he's opted to return to Detroit as a member of the practice squad. Kitselman would be a candidate to be elevated to the active roster if one of the four tight ends on the Lions' 53-man roster were to miss time.

  • Saints' Daniel Carlson: Has PAT blocked in loss

    Carlson made three of his four PATs and attempted no field goals in the Saints' 35-27 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

    Carlson's missed PAT on the Saints' second drive of the contest was blocked by Thomas Booker. The point was a relevant one, impacting decisions throughout the contest that ended up as an eight-point game. Carlson moves to 7-of-8 on PATs and remains 4-of-5 on field-goal attempts through three regular-season games.

  • Jets' Jason Sanders: Nails both kicks against Detroit

    Sanders converted on a 42-yard field goal and made his lone extra-point try during the Jets' 31-24 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Sanders' field goal in the third quarter reduced the Jets' deficit to 17-10, though he didn't end up attempting an extra point following each of the Jets' two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Through three regular-season games, the veteran kicker is 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra-point tries. Sanders has been elevated from the practice squad three times, so he would have to be signed to the Jets' active roster in order to suit up for the team against the Bears in Week 4.
