Pace (personal) has been tagged as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

A personal issue appears to have arisen for Pace in the lead-up to Sunday's contest. If the matter cannot be resolved before the showdown with the Buccaneers, Jake Golday is set to be the sole reserve inside linebacker for the Panthers in Sunday's game.

The Panthers signed Njongmeta from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

The third-year linebacker out of Wisconsin has yet to start in an NFL game. Njongmeta has likely been elevated as an additional depth option at linebacker alongside Tyrel Dodson due to the placement of Claudin Cherelus (shoulder) on injured reserve.

The Panthers placed Cherelus (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Cherelus has not practiced since sustaining a shoulder injury in the Panthers' Week 2 win over the Falcons. The linebacker will now need to miss at least four games before he can return to the team's active roster from injured reserve. Tyrel Dodson will likely take Cherelus' place as a special-teamer and reserve linebacker for the Panthers' defense.

The Panthers elevated Tyus from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Tyus is set to be the No. 3 option at running back in Sunday's game against the Browns. Chuba Hubbard and AJ Dillon will still see the majority, if not all, of the offensive reps in the contest, but Tyus will be the reserve option if the two need a break or succumb to injury.

The Panthers elevated Moore from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

Moore is set to suit up as a depth wide receiver due to the potential absence of starting options Jalen Coker (ankle) and Xavier Legette (knee). If both wide receivers can overcome their injuries and play Sunday, Moore will likely be game-day inactive for the team.

The Texans placed Hummel (groin) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Hummel has not practiced since sustaining a groin injury during the Texans' Week 1 loss to the Bills. The linebacker will now miss at least four games on IR before becoming eligible to return to the team's active roster. While Hummel is absent, Jake Hansen should continue to start alongside Azeez Al-Shaair and Aiden Fisher at linebacker.

The Texans elevated Bond from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts,

Bond has now been elevated for consecutive weeks, playing 13 offensive snaps in the Texans' Week 2 loss to the Bengals. The wide receiver will once again fill in as a depth option for the injured Nico Collins (hamstring).

The Packers signed Tomlinson off the Cowboys' practice squad Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Tomlinson spent the offseason with the Cowboys' practice squad after being waived by the Texans in December. The offensive guard will now add depth to a battered Packers offensive line.

Nwangwu (back) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions.

Nwangwu was listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest after Friday's practice. The Jets' kick returner had an outside chance to suit up Sunday despite not logging a single day of practice throughout Week 3 prep. After a Saturday examination, it's been determined that Nwangwu will not be ready for the game, leaving Isaiah Williams as the primary kick and punt returner for the Jets' showdown with the Lions.

Bagent (concussion) will be back at practice Saturday after progressing through the league's concussion protocol, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

With Bagent back on the field after missing practice time earlier in the week, Chicago regains depth at quarterback. His return is a welcome one for the Bears given that Caleb Williams is rehabbing from a hamstring injury, though Adam Schefter of ESPN notes that Bagent needs to go consecutive days without symptoms before being fully cleared to play. If Bagent is given the green light to play and Williams is ruled out, then the former would start against Philadelphia while Case Keenum serves as the backup.
