  • Dalen Cambre WR | NYG

    Dalen Cambre: Returns to practice squad

    Cambre reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Cambre was elevated to the active roster for the second straight game, failing to record any stats while playing one snap on offense and 14 snaps with the special-teams unit in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions. The wide receiver ranked fifth at his position in offensive snaps, finishing behind Wan'Dale Robinson (68), Isaiah Hodgins (54), Darius Slayton (52) and Gunner Olszewski (eight), while Jalin Hyatt was active but didn't play. Cambre can still be elevated one more time before the Giants would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

  • Jaycee Horn CB | CAR

    Panthers' Jaycee Horn: Enters concussion protocol

    Horn (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the 49ers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Per the ESPN broadcast, Horn was being evaluated by medical staff following his second interception of the game in the second quarter. He remained in the locker room after halftime and will not return after being diagnosed with a concussion, so Corey Thornton has taken over as the Panthers' second outside cornerback opposite Mike Jackson.

  • Jared Verse DE | CLE

    Rams' Jared Verse: Logs 2.0 sacks in Week 12 victory

    Verse totaled four tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in a 34-7 rout over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Verse's first sack came on a takedown of Baker Mayfield two players before the end of the first half, and Verse later sacked backup Teddy Bridgewater early in the fourth period. Sunday marked the first time this season Verse has posted multiple sacks in a game. After totaling 4.5 sacks over 17 regular-season games as a rookie last year, Verse is up to 6.0 sacks across 11 contests this season.

  • Panthers' Claudin Cherelus: Ruled out against 49ers

    Cherelus won't return to Monday's game against the 49ers after suffering a concussion, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Cherelus had seen an increased role with both Trevin Wallace (shoulder) and Christian Rozeboom (hip) inactive. However, his absence further depletes Carolina's linebacker corps, which won't bode well for the unit's ability to slow down Christian McCaffrey in the second half.

  • Kobie Turner DE | LAR

    Rams' Kobie Turner: Notches 2.0 sacks in dominant win

    Turner tallied six tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, Sunday in a 34-7 victory versus Tampa Bay.

    Turner took down Baker Mayfield for a nine-yard loss late in the first quarter and added another sack of Mayfield midway through the third. The third-year defensive tackle came into Sunday with 1.5 sacks on the season, so he more than doubled that total Sunday. Turner's six total tackles Sunday also marked a season high.

  • Dante Pettis WR | BUF

    Saints' Dante Pettis: Back with practice squad

    Pettis reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Pettis was elevated again in Week 12, catching his only target for 14 yards while logging six offensive snaps in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Falcons. The wide receiver finished fifth at his position in offensive snaps behind Devaughn Vele (71), Chris Olave (64), Mason Tipton (56) and Kevin Austin (10). Pettis also registered 10 yards on three punt returns and returned two kickoffs for 48 yards while playing 10 snaps on special teams. Pettis can still be elevated one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

  • Bobby Okereke LB | CAR

    Giants' Bobby Okereke: Steady again with eight stops

    Okereke tallied eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's Week 12 overtime loss to the Lions.

    Okereke finished as New York's second-leading tackler behind Dane Belton (nine). Okereke has at least six stops in 11 of 12 contests this season and has reached the double-digit mark four times. The veteran linebacker leads the Giants with 103 tackles on the campaign, marking the fourth time in five seasons he's reached the triple-digit mark.

  • Brennan Presley: Back with practice squad

    Presley reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Presley was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday night's 34-7 win over the Buccaneers, failing to record any stats while playing four snaps on special teams. With fellow wideout Xavier Smith (concussion) uncertain for Week 13, it's possible that Presley will be elevated again before the team squares off with the Panthers on the road.

  • Giants' Darius Alexander: Records first full sacks of career

    Alexander tallied four tackles, including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's overtime loss to Detroit.

    Alexander came into Sunday's contest with just a half-sack through his first 10 NFL games. He built upon that number considerably with a full sack of Jared Goff in each of the first and second quarters. Alexander also logged a season-high 51 percent defensive snap share, and his performance Sunday could help him earn more playing time moving forward.

  • Chiefs' Clyde Edwards-Helaire: Reverts to practice squad

    Edwards-Helaire reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Edwards-Helaire was elevated to the active roster to operate as a third option at running back behind Kareem Hunt and Brashard Smith in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win against the Colts. Edwards-Helaire logged 17 snaps on offense, compiling eight yards on five carries while catching both of his targets for nine yards. He finished third at his position in offensive snaps behind Hunt (68) and Smith (18), while Isiah Pacheco (knee) and Elijah Mitchell (coach's decision) were unavailable. Pacheco was estimated to be a full participant at the team's walkthrough Monday, so he may be set to make his return to action following a three-game absence. If Pacheco can't go Thursday against the Cowboys, there's a good chance that Edwards-Helaire would garner another elevation in Week 13.
