Allen is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Allen was a sixth-round selection of the Commanders in the 2026 NFL Draft, but he was waived by the team Oct. 8. He was claimed off waivers by the Dolphins one day later, and the Penn State product will suit up for his new team for the first time Sunday, when he'll operate as the RB3 behind Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright.

Dexter (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Dexter sustained a hamstring injury during Friday's practice and was only able to log limited participation in the session. The defensive tackle appears capable of playing through the minor issue in Sunday's contest against the 49ers. The nose tackle may see a reduced share of defensive snaps as he manages the fresh injury, leaving Zach Harrison or LaCale London to pick up some additional opportunities on the Falcons' defensive line.

Dell (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Dell is ready to take the field for the first time since Dec. 21, 2024, when he suffered a dislocated kneecap and multiple ligament tears in his left knee. The 2023 third-rounder established a role for himself in the offense before the injury, but he'll likely be eased into the workload in his first game in nearly two years. Dell figures to operate in a rotational role behind Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison and Jaylin Noel.

Daniels (neck) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Daniels has recovered from a scary neck injury that sent him to the hospital during the Week 6 showdown with the Bears. The linebacker has managed to recover in just one week and is all set to suit up next to Harold Perkins at inside linebacker for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Parham (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Parham will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game due to a lingering knee injury. The good news for the 2022 third-rounder is that he was able to practice during Week 7 prep, so he's progressing in his recovery and could return for Week 8 against the Raiders on Nov. 1. Jordan Meredith will continue to start at left guard in Parham's absence.

Sanders is active as the Browns' backup quarterback for Sunday's game against. the Titans.

After Deshaun Watson had a listless performance in a blowout loss to the Jaguars in Week 1, Ian Rapoport of ESPN had reported that Sanders could get a chance to start as soon as Week 3 if the Browns continued to languish. Watson has since steadied the ship, leading the Browns to wins in four of their last five games to put them atop the AFC North standings heading into Week 7 action. As a result, Sanders doesn't appear likely to threaten Watson's standing atop the depth chart anytime soon, though Sanders will continue to suit up on game days ahead of rookie Taylen Green, who will once again be inactive Sunday as the Browns' emergency No. 3 quarterback.

King (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the emergency third quarterback against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

King has been the Panthers' emergency QB3 behind Bryce Young and Kenny Pickett all season, and that trend will continue Sunday. As such, King is prohibited from seeing the field unless both Young and Pickett exit the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Henderson (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Henderson missed Week 6 due to a groin injury and fought to upgrade to full participation during the final practice session of Week 7 prep. The reserve cornerback is all set to suit up for Sunday's game behind starters A.J. Terrell and Mike Hughes.

Singleton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Despite the fact that Tyjae Spears (knee) is inactive, Singleton will be a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest. It will be the rookie fifth-rounder's third missed game in a row, and his next opportunity to play is Week 8 against the Bengals on Nov. 1. Tony Pollard will operate as the Titans' lead back for Week 7 while Julius Chestnut, Michael Carter and Kalel Mullings provide depth.

Strand (coach's decision) is inactive as the emergency third quarterback for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Strand is the emergency third option behind Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa, while Andy Dalton (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch as he continues to learn the Falcons' offense. Strand will only enter Sunday's game against the 49ers if both Penix and Tagovailoa cannot continue due to injury, illness or ejection.
