Tony Adams SAF | TEN
Titans' Tony Adams: Ready for Week 7
Adams (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Adams upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice after starting the week limited with an ankle injury he sustained in Week 6. The reserve safety is set to suit up and play through the injury for the Titans' Week 7 matchup with the Browns.

AJ Dillon RB | CAR
Panthers' AJ Dillon: Not suiting up Sunday
Dillon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
After an ankle injury kept Dillon from playing in a Week 6 win over the Eagles, he was a full participant in practices Wednesday through Friday and avoided an injury designation for Sunday's contest. Dillon will wind up on the inactive list for a second straight game, however, with Carolina moving forward with Trevor Etienne and Anthony Tyus as its backup options behind lead back Chuba Hubbard. Both Etienne and Tyus offer more utility on special teams than Dillon, who hadn't been offering much of an impact on offense with 17 carries for 43 yards (2.5 average) and two catches for three yards over his four appearances on the season.

Kevin Winston Jr. SAF | TEN
Titans' Kevin Winston: Set for Sunday
Winston (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Winston logged a full practice session Friday, overcoming his quad injury after missing consecutive sessions to start Week 7 prep. The free safety will do the same for Sunday's game, suiting up alongside strong safety Amani Hooker.

Kene Nwangwu RB | NYJ
Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Not cleared to play against Miami
Nwangwu (knee) is inactive against the Dolphins on Sunday.
Nwangwu drew the questionable tag for Sunday's game after logging a full practice Friday. However, the sixth-year pro has not been cleared by medical staff to play, so Isaiah Williams will operate as the primary returner on both punts and kickoffs. Nwangu's next opportunity to suit up is Week 8 against the Raiders on Nov. 1.

Jake Haener QB | NYG
Giants' Jake Haener: Listed as emergency QB3
Haener is inactive Week 7 against the Texans but is listed as the Giants' emergency quarterback, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Haener will resume the same role he's had since his October signing in which he'll only be able to take the field if both J.J. McCarthy and Jameis Winston go down due to injury, illness, or ejection.
-
Braelon Allen RB | NYJ
Jets' Braelon Allen: Handling lead role again Sunday
Allen will remain the Jets' No. 1 back for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Dolphins, as Breece Hall has been declared inactive for the contest.
With Hall unavailable for a fourth straight game Sunday, Allen will have a chance to build on the averages of 18.3 rush attempts, 84.3 rushing yards, 1.7 receptions and 11.3 receiving yards he's generated in the lead role over his teammate's first three absences. Despite their winless record, the Dolphins have been respectable defending the run, allowing 4.0 yards per carry to running backs, albeit while also conceding a 25-197-5 receiving line to the position.

Bryce Boettcher LB | IND
Colts' Bryce Boettcher: Inactive for Week 7
Boettcher (groin) is inactive against the Vikings on Sunday.
Boettcher strung together a DNP-FP-DNP practice log during Week 7 prep due to a groin injury, but he has not been cleared by medical staff to play Sunday. Germaine Pratt, Austin Ajiake and Tahj Chambers are all in line for more defensive snaps in the absence of Boettcher, whose next chance to play is Week 8 against the Jaguars on Nov. 1.

Jermaine Eluemunor G | NYG
Giants' Jermaine Eluemunor: Set to play
Eluemunor (calf) is active Week 7 against the Texans, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Eluemunor managed just a pair of limited practices this week, but the veteran tackle will ultimately be available for a Giants team that has both Marcus Mbow (knee) and Josh Sills (coach's decision) on the inactive list Sunday.
-
Shemar Stewart DE | CIN
Bengals' Shemar Stewart: Healthy scratch amidst trade rumors
Stewart (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Stewart comes out of the bye week as a healthy scratch after playing consecutive games before the Bengals' break. The 2025 first-rounder has struggled so far in his career and has been the target of many trade rumors as the deadline approaches. The team may be protecting the defensive end's health if they plan to deal him soon.

Riley Leonard QB | IND
Colts' Riley Leonard: Emergency third QB for Week 7
Leonard (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Colts' emergency third quarterback against the Vikings on Sunday.
Leonard will continue to serve as the team's emergency QB3, and as such, he is prohibited from playing Sunday unless both Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson are removed from the game due to injury, illness or ejection.
