Flowers (hamstring) is expected to "test his injury" prior to Sunday's game against the Cowboys, and if he suits up he "will likely be on a pitch count," Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Flowers was limited on Friday's injury report and given a questionable designation for Week 3, so the door is open for him to take the field Sunday in Brazil. However, it appears a final call on his availability will not be made until the Ravens release their inactives 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, and even if Flowers is active he may not handle a full complement of snaps. Rashod Bateman would be the favorite to pick up the Slack if Flowers is limited or unavailable altogether.

Mims (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Mims was a limited participant in all three practices and has a chance to return from a one-game absence due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 1 against the Chiefs. His status for Sunday's game may not be officially known until 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, when the Broncos announce their list of inactive players.

Thompson (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Arizona.

Thompson suffered a high-ankle sprain in the 35-13 victory over the Dolphins in Week 2. While nothing has been made official, an injury of this nature likely means he will miss more time moving ahead. The rookie appeared in both of the 49ers' games to begin the 2026 campaign, amassing four total tackles (one solo).

Cosmi (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Cosmi entered the league's five-step protocol after suffering a concussion during the Commanders' Week 2 loss to the Cowboys. The right guard was unable to be cleared by an independent neurologist, meaning he will be sidelined for Sunday's game. Andrew Wylie or Tanoa Togiai will likely start at right guard in Cosmi's absence.

Hutchins (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

Hutchins appeared in both of the Patriots' first two games of the 2026 campaign, accumulating three total tackles. The rookie will now miss at least four games while tending to a knee injury. While Hutchins has played sparingly, his absence will still allow Gabe Jacas and Jose Ramirez to see a little more action.

Thomas (groin) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Thomas was limited in Wednesday's practice before logging a DNP on Thursday. The left tackle upgraded to a limited participant once again Friday, managing to avoid any injury designation for Sunday's contest. Thomas will suit up to protect Jameis Winston's blindside due to the injury to starting quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee).

Bartch (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Bartch was unable to practice in Week 3 as he dealt with a foot injury he may have picked up during the Lions' Week 2 loss to the Bills. The Lions will only lose out on a depth option this week, as starting left guard Christian Mahogany has recovered from his hip injury enough to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Jets.

Ratledge (elbow) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Ratledge was limited in back-to-back practices to start Week 3 before upgrading to a full participant in Friday's session. The starting right guard is set to suit up for Sunday's game. With Christian Mahogany and Blake Miller also set to suit up, the entire starting Lions offensive line will be able to support backup center Juice Scruggs in Sunday's contest.

Beal (hamstring) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Beal suffered a hamstring injury in the loss to the 49ers in Week 2. He didn't practice throughout the week, slamming the door on his potential to play in the meeting with Kansas City.

Miller (knee) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Miller was a limited participant in the first two practices of Week 3 before upgrading to full participation in Friday's session. The rookie first-rounder is set to suit up for his second NFL game after a brief week-long hiatus spent dealing with a knee injury.
