The Chargers elevated Hines from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Hines will be elevated to the Chargers' active roster for a second straight week and will be available to play against the Colts, the team that drafted him in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Hines primarily served on special teams during the Chargers' Week 6 win over the Dolphins, when he turned three kickoff returns into 97 yards. However, the veteran running back could be deployed out of the backfield to spell Kimani Vidal if Hassan Haskins (chest) is not cleared to play Sunday.

The Chargers activated Perryman (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday.

Perryman is on track to return from a five-game absence due to an ankle injury he sustained during the Chargers' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, though he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. The veteran linebacker could see a substantial workload in his return if Troy Dye is unable to play after not practicing all week due to a thumb injury.

Sweat (ankle) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Sweat has practiced in a limited capacity all week, which was enough for the Titans to activate him from injured reserve. That gives him a chance to suit up for the first time since Week 1, though he officially remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

The Titans have elevated Kinsey from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's matchup against New England, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Kinsey will provide Tennessee with extra depth at the wide receiver position, with both Calvin Ridley (hamstring) and Bryce Oliver (knee) unavailable Week 7. After Sunday's home game, Kinsey will be slated to revert to the Titans' practice squad.

Carter (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers.

Carter has been sidelined by the concussion since Week 4. Jarvis Brownlee will continue to serve as the Jets' slot corner in Carter's place.

The Chargers activated Mack (elbow) from injured reserve Saturday, but he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Colts.

Mack's window to come off IR opened Wednesday, and despite being limited in practice all week, the veteran edge rusher is expected to make his return Sunday after recovering from an elbow injury sustained in Week 2 against the Raiders, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Mack may be slowly eased into action in his first game back, but his return means Odafe Oweh, Bud Dupree and rookie fourth-rounder Kyle Kennard all are in jeopardy of seeing their snap counts on defense decrease.

The Colts elevated Treadwell to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday.

Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) have been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, leaving the Colts shorthanded at wide receiver. Treadwell has spent the entire season on the team's practice squad, with this elevation marking his first of the year.

The Patriots elevated Jennings from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Jennings will be elevated for a second straight week and be available to play against the Titans on Sunday. He played seven snaps on special teams against the Saints in Week 6, and the 24-year-old running back will likely be limited to that role while TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson handle the work out of the backfield.

The Colts signed Adbullah from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Tyler Goodson (groin) has been ruled out, leaving the Colts in need of running back depth behind Jonathan Taylor and DJ Giddens. Abdullah was active in Weeks 5 and 6, logging a total of three carries for 13 yards and a touchdown, and he'll now have a permanent spot on the roster.

David (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Lions, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

David has worked through a knee injury for much of the season, and he managed to practice in full Saturday after logging back-to-back DNPs to open the week. Given how the Buccaneers have limited David's practice snaps this season, the veteran linebacker should be cleared to play in Monday's road contest. In the event that he doesn't play or operates under a snap count on defense, Deion Jones would be the top candidate to see more snaps at inside linebacker alongside SirVocea Dennis.
