Hobbs (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Hobbs was a late addition to Friday's injury report due to a knee injury. He was listed as questionable heading into Week 7 but has been cleared to suit up after going through pregame warmups. With Keisean Nixon (illness) also active, Hobbs will likely serve in a rotational role in the secondary while contributing on special teams.

Jurgens (knee) has officially been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Vikings, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Jurgens sustained a knee injury in the first quarter and, after further evaluation, won't log any more Week 7 action. Brett Toth has continued as the center for the Eagles and will likely finish Sunday's game for the team.

Nixon (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Nixon was added to the Packers' injury report Saturday due to an illness, but he has been cleared to play in Week 7. The veteran corner has accumulated 22 tackles (19 solo) and nine pass defenses through the first five games of the regular season.

Cornelius (knee) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Commanders.

Cornelius will be sidelined for a second straight week while he continues to nurse a knee injury. His absence doesn't carry much of an impact for the Cowboys in Week 7.

Kmet exited Sunday's game against the Saints after sustaining a back injury.

Prior to that, Kmet caught his only target for 16 yards. While he's sidelined, Colston Loveland and Durham Smythe are available to handle the Bears' tight-end duties versus New Orleans.

Cosmi (knee) is active for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

Cosmi will make his return after missing the team's first six games of the year while recovering from a torn ACL that he sustained in January. The offensive lineman is geared up to be back in his starting role at right guard versus Dallas.

Strong (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

With Josh Jacbos (calf/illness) officially cleared to play, Strong will observe Sunday's game in street clothes while Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks provide depth out of the backfield. The Packers elevated Strong from the practice squad Saturday, and he can be brought up twice more by Green Bay this season.

Nwangwu went to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Panthers to be evaluated for a potential concussion, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Nwangwu went to the locker room to get checked for a possible concussion during the third quarter of Sunday's game. The return specialist had one return for 29 yards against the Panthers and is averaging 35.0 yards per return this season.

Lane should see a boost in targets in Sunday's Week 7 clash against the Cowboys due to the inactive status of Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Deebo Samuel (heel), as well as the absence of Noah Brown (IR, groin/knee).

The rookie fourth-round pick has been modestly involved in the early stages of his NFL career, logging 15 targets over his first six contests. However, with the Commanders' wide-receiver corps especially thin Sunday and Washington set to have to remain aggressive with a potent Dallas offense on the other side, Lane, along with Luke McCaffrey and Chris Moore, appears set to serve as one of Jayden Daniels' top targets when dropping back.

Tufele (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Tufele sustained a knee injury early in the third quarter, and he'll be evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Jowon Briggs will be the Jets' lone rotational option at defensive tackle if Tufele is unable to return.
