Robinson (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Robinson appeared to sustain the injury during the opening kickoff, per Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune. Daniel Hardy should see more rotational snaps at defensive end for as long as Robinson is being evaluated by medical staff on the sidelines.

Bernard (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Panthers but will not start, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Bernard is active but ideally won't play in hopes of being 100 percent for Week 9 versus the Chiefs. The Bills are reportedly using him as an emergency linebacker with the plan to start Shaq Thompson and Dorian Williams.

Richardson underwent surgery Monday to repair his orbital fracture and could return from injured reserve later this season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The Colts haven't issued a timeline for Richardson's return from surgery, which he required after fracturing his orbital when he was hit in the eye by a piece of workout equipment prior to Indianapolis' Oct. 12 win over the Cardinals. Since Richardson was deactivated, rookie Riley Leonard has stepped in as the Colts' No. 2 quarterback behind starter Daniel Jones.

Poyer, who was elevated from the Bills' practice squad to the active roster Saturday, is expected to start at safety against the Panthers on Sunday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

The 13th-year veteran will move into a starting role at safety alongside Cole Bishop in Week 8 after Taylor Rapp (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday. Poyer joined the Bills' practice squad in late August and made his first appearance in Week 6 against the Falcons, when he logged one tackle while playing 22 snaps (18 on defense, four on special teams). He started in 16 regular-season games during the 2024 campaign with the Dolphins and finished with 98 tackles (51 solo) and three pass defenses.

Huntington (concussion) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Huntington suffered a concussion during the Week 7 win over the Dolphins and remains in the league's protocol. Shelby Harris and Mike Hall will potentially play rotational snaps in Huntington's stead behind starting defensive tackles Mason Graham and Maliek Collins.

Nabers is scheduled to undergo surgery later this upcoming week to repair the torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Though Nabers sustained the non-contact injury during a Sept. 28 win over the Chargers in Week 4, he needed one month to let the swelling in his knee subside and complete a rehab program before heading in for surgery. Assuming Nabers' upcoming procedure goes as planned, he's expected to be back to full strength for the start of the 2026 season. Before suffering the knee injury, the 22-year-old wideout played only a handful of snaps with rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart, who made his first NFL start Week 4 in place of the struggling Russell Wilson after the latter directed the offense for the first three games of the season.

Still is expected to miss two to four weeks due to an MCL sprain that he sustained during the Chargers' Week 8 win over the Vikings on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Still sustained the injury in the second half of Thursday's game and finished with three tackles (two solo) and one pass defense. The Chargers have three more games until their bye in Week 12, so it's possible that the second-year corner is held out until Week 13 against the Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 30. Ja'Sir Taylor should see an increased workload on defense as the Chargers' slot cornerback for as long as Still is sideliend.

Washington (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Washington has only played three snaps this season, coming in the Dolphins' Week 5 loss to the Panthers. The team's active wide reciever room for Week 8 consists of Jaylen Waddle, Malik Washington, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Cedrick Wilson and Dee Eskridge.

Howell (coach's decision) is inactive but will be available as the Eagles' emergency third quarterback against the Giants on Sunday.

As the emergency third quarterback, Howell is prohibited from playing in Week 8 unless Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee are both removed from Sunday's game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Cooper (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Cooper was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the undrafted rookie has been officially cleared to return from a four-game absence due to a shoulder injury he sustained against the Rams in Week 3. Cooper saw the field on both special teams and in a rotational role on offense prior to his injury, but he could see more snaps at wide receiver in Week 8 due to the absence of A.J. Brown (hamstring).
