  • Titans' Matthew Wright: Goes back to practice squad

    Wright reverted to Tennessee's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Wright was elevated from the practice squad to kick for the Titans this past Sunday and made his lone field-goal attempt and only extra-point try. His opportunity came as a result of Joey Slye missing the game due to a calf injury. If Slye is sidelined again this Sunday against New England, Wright figures to kick for Tennessee again.

  • Owen Wright RB | HOU

    Owen Wright: Back with practice squad

    Wright reverted to the Buccaneers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Wright was elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's 30-19 win over the 49ers on Sunday, playing just one offensive snap in the contest. With Bucky Irving (shoulder) expected to remain sidelined in Week 7, Wright could be added to the active roster again to serve as a depth option at running back behind Rachaad White and Sean Tucker versus Detroit.

  • Commanders' Dorance Armstrong: Back in game Monday

    Armstrong (hamstring) has returned to Monday's matchup against the Bears, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Armstrong had to exit the field earlier in the game due to an apparent hamstring issue, but the injury appears to have been minor. The veteran defensive end is back in the contest and will try to help the Commanders finish strongly in a tightly contested matchup.

  • Nate Landman LB | LAR

    Rams' Nate Landman: Franchise-record 17 tackles

    Landman recorded 17 tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 17-3 victory against the Ravens.

    The veteran's record-breaking tackle tally eclipsed the Rams' previous high of 16, held by four different players. Landman showed no ill effects of the ankle injury that kept him limited in practice, and he has triple-digit tackles in three of six games played this season. He next takes on the Jaguars in London in Week 7.

  • Cole Bishop SAF | BUF

    Bills' Cole Bishop: Returns to action Monday

    Bishop (lower body) has returned to Monday's Week 6 contest versus Atlanta, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Bishop temporarily left the game due to lower-body cramps, but he's since returned to the contest. He should thus resume his every-down role at safety.

  • Commanders' Dorance Armstrong: Questionable to return

    Armstrong (hamstring) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest against the Bears.

    Armstrong suffered an apparent hamstring injury, which has now placed some doubt on his ability to return to action. The defensive lineman recorded one solo tackle before his departure, and in his absence, Jalyn Holmes stands to operate in a more significant role on the defensive line versus Chicago.

  • Carson Wentz QB | MIN

    Vikings' Carson Wentz: Back on practice field

    Wentz (shoulder) was able to practice Monday, Andrew Krammer of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

    Wentz contended with soreness in his non-throwing shoulder during the Vikings' Oct. 6 win over the Browns in London, but he was able to finish out the contest. He appears to have made some progress in his recovery over the Vikings' Week 7 bye, though it won't be clear until Wednesday whether he's participating in practice as a full participant. J.J. McCarthy (ankle) also returned to practice Monday for the first time since Sept. 14, so even if his shoulder proves to be a non-issue, Wentz may move to the bench for Sunday's game against the Eagles after starting in each of the previous three games. The Vikings will likely gauge the health of McCarthy and Wentz throughout the week of practice before announcing a starter for Sunday.

  • Noah Sewell LB | CHI

    Bears' Noah Sewell: Done for night

    Sewell (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday night's contest against Washington, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Sewell suffered a blow to the head in the first half, which ultimately resulted in him being diagnosed with a concussion. In his absence, D'Marco Jackson will continue to operate in a more significant role at outside linebacker versus the Commanders.

  • Drew Sample TE | CIN

    Bengals' Drew Sample: Plays 20 snaps in loss

    Sample recorded one reception for minus-2 yards on two targets in Sunday's 27-18 loss to the Packers.

    Sample was on the field for 20 of the Bengals' 61 offensive snaps in the loss and could be in line for more playing time Thursday against the Steelers, as Cincinnati is likely to be without fellow tight ends Mike Gesicki (pectoral) and Tanner Hudson (concussion) for the game. The Bengals have used Sample primarily as a blocker this season, so any uptick in playing time he might receive in Week 7 is unlikely to translate into bankable fantasy production.

  • Isaiah Williams: Returns to practice squad

    Williams reverted to the Jets' practice squad Sunday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Williams was brought up to the active roster for this past Sunday's loss to Denver and played all 12 of his snaps on special teams. He worked as New York's primary return man in the contest, logging 59 kickoff-return and 32 punt-return yards. Williams served in a similar role earlier in the campaign when he was on the 53-man roster before being cut Oct. 4. He's played just one offensive snap over four contests so far this season.
