Smith (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders.

Smith suffered a back injury in the first half of the contest, and he will now be forced to miss the rest of the game. Mike Caliendo has taken over at right guard in Smith's absence.

Waller (pectoral) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns.

Prior to his exit, Waller didn't record a catch. In his absence, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner will handle Miami's TE duties versus Cleveland. Waller's next chance to see game action will be next Sunday against the Falcons.

Dimukeje (pectoral) is active for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The Giants activated Dimukeje from injured reserve Saturday, and the fourth-year linebacker has been cleared to make his 2025 regular-season debut Sunday. He'll likely see most of his snaps on special teams but could see some rotational snaps at outside linebacker due to Chauncey Golston (neck) being inactive.

Jackson (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Vikings.

Jackson and Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson collided in the third quarter, ultimately resulting in a concussion for Jackson. In his absence, Kelee Ringo will stand to see an increase in workload at cornerback versus Minnesota.

Jones (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Packers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Despite just one appearance in practice this week -- he was limited Friday -- Jones will play through a knee injury but remain the Cardinals' No. 3 WR, at best, behind Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson. In five appearances this season, Jones has put together a 10-116-0 line on 15 targets.

Alt (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Colts.

Alt will miss his third straight game this week, as he is still recovering from an ankle injury he suffered in Week 4. The 2024 first-round pick did return to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, which is a good sign for his status next week.

Moore 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 Commanders' receiving corps has suffered some serious attrition in recent weeks, and Moore is one of the last men standing for the time being. The veteran flashed with a 3-46-1 line on five targets in the Week 6 loss to the Bears, and he'll profile as one of Jayden Daniels' top targets alongside Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane in Sunday's divisional showdown.

Havrisik will serve as the Packers' placekicker Sunday at Arizona with Brandon McManus (right quadriceps) inactive for the contest, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Havrisik is getting his second chance to supplement the Packers offense in as many weekends as McManus remains sidelined due a right quad injury. In last Sunday's win versus the Bengals, Havrisik connected on both field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries.

Kneeland (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Kneeland earned the questionable tag for Week 7 after being limited in practice all week due to an ankle injury that he aggravated in Week 6. He has not been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups, which means Jadeveon Clowney, James Houston and rookie second-rounder Donovan Ezeiruaku should see more rotational snaps at defensive end in Kneeland's absence.

Jones (hamstring) is active for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

Jones will make his return to action after missing four weeks while on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. The cornerback will provide the team with some much-needed help in the secondary while Washington faces off with the likes of CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and Jake Ferguson in Week 7.
