Jahmyr Gibbs RB | DET
Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs: Makes three more trips to end zone Sunday
Gibbs carried the ball 20 times for 99 yards and two touchdowns while catching seven of eight targets for 65 yards and a third TD in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Jets.
That's now six trips to the end zone in three games to begin the season for Gibbs, who ran it in from 17 yards and one yard before hauling in a game-winning 11-yard toss from Jared Goff inside the final two minutes of the fourth quarter. Gibbs has added 463 scrimmage yards to his ledger as well, more than earning his spot at the top of preseason draft boards. He'll look to keep rolling in a Week 4 road clash against the Panthers.

Travis Etienne RB | NO
Saints' Travis Etienne: Heads to locker room due to injury
Etienne (undisclosed) went to the locker room in the second half of Sunday's game against the Raiders, Ross Jackson of LouisianaSports.net reports.
Etienne was favoring one of his legs after a 16-yard run in the second half and went to the locker room shortly after going into the injury tent. It's unclear if this injury is connected to the hamstring injury that limited Etienne's practice participation during the week leading up to Sunday's game. Etienne had 13 carries for 57 yards and caught both of his targets for 13 yards prior to getting hurt. His return can be considered questionable, with Alvin Kamara next in line for touches out of the backfield.

Gracen Halton DT | SF
49ers' Gracen Halton: Exits game with ankle injury
Halton (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Arizona, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Halton had to be helped off the field by trainers after sustaining an ankle injury, and he's been taken to the locker room for further evaluation. Naquan Jones, Kevin Givens and Sebastian Valdez are all in line for more defensive snaps for as long as Halton is out of the game.

DK Metcalf WR | PIT
Steelers' DK Metcalf: First TD of season in win
Metcalf brought in three of five targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' 30-27 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Metcalf once again put together a very modest receiving line, but the veteran wideout managed to deliver his first touchdown of the season on a six-yard grab late in the third quarter. Metcalf's high-water mark through three games is the four-catch, 40-yard tally he managed in Week 1 against the Falcons, but with Aaron Rodgers and the passing attack as a whole looking much more cohesive Sunday, there's some hope for an uptick in production during a Week 4 road matchup against the Browns on Thursday night.

Mike Evans WR | SF
49ers' Mike Evans: Suffers rib strain Sunday
Evans (rib) is dealing with a rib strain after exiting Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Evans was knocked from the 49ers' Week 3 matchup after taking a hit to the midsection from Arizona safety Budda Baker in the second quarter and eventually was ruled out. He'll undergo a full evaluation Monday, after which a prognosis likely will become clearer. Deebo Samuel, Jacob Cowing, Jordan Watkins and KhaDarel Hodge are the team's available wide receivers with Evans unable to return.

Renardo Green CB | SF
49ers' Renardo Green: Possible concussion
Green is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Green took a hit to the head during the third quarter of Sunday's game and is now being evaluated by medical staff. Jack Jones is slated for more snaps at outside cornerback in Green's absence.

Markquese Bell SAF | DAL
Cowboys' Markquese Bell: Dealing with dehydration
Bell (dehydration) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Ravens, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Bell has been forced out of Sunday's matchup as a result of dehydration, and his availability for the rest of the game is now up in the air. Fellow safety Jalen Thompson (hamstring) has already been ruled out for the rest of the game, so Dallas has become rather thin in the secondary.

Kenyon Sadiq TE | NYJ
Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Catches first TD pass
Sadiq caught seven of eight passes for 105 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions.
The rookie tight end made a spectacular play to haul in his first career TD reception in the second quarter, leaping from about the five-yard line and stretching out the full length of his 6-foot-3 frame to bring in a 24-yard pass from Geno Smith. Sadiq is very quickly making an impact with his athleticism, and through his first three NFL games he's compiled a 12-143-1 line on 14 targets while adding a three-yard score on his only carry. He'll look to continue building chemistry with Smith in a Week 4 road trip to Chicago.

Omarion Hampton RB | LAC
Chargers' Omarion Hampton: Inefficient afternoon in loss
Hampton rushed 15 times for 56 yards and failed to bring in his only target in the Chargers' 24-16 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
The Chargers' No. 1 back got seven more carries than change-of-pace option Keaton Mitchell, but he was only able to outpace the latter by four yards. It was a disappointing downturn for Hampton, who'd broken out with 94 rushing yards and a touchdown while adding a 2-21-0 receiving line against the Raiders in Week 2. The Chargers are now alarmingly 0-3 heading into a daunting Week 4 road matchup against the Seahawks, but Hampton figures to remain in a clear-cut lead role for that contest.
