  • Jordan James RB | SF

    49ers' Jordan James: Won't play against Tampa Bay

    James (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

    The rookie fifth-rounder has yet to see regular-season action and will be a healthy scratch for a fifth consecutive game. Christian McCaffrey, Brian Robinson and Isaac Guerendo will serve as the 49ers' active running backs for Sunday's road tilt.

  • Kalia Davis DT | CLE

    49ers' Kalia Davis: Will play Sunday

    Davis (hand) is active for San Francisco's matchup versus Tampa Bay on Sunday, Briana Jeannel of the team's official site reports.

    Davis is set to play despite recently undergoing surgery to repair a broken hand suffered in the Week 5 win over the Rams. The 27-year-old should return to his role as one of the team's starting defensive tackles alongside Jordan Elliott for Sunday's game.

  • Aaron Banks G | GB

    Packers' Aaron Banks: Green light to play vs. Cincy

    Banks (groin/back) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Banks was limited in practice all week due to groin and back injuries, but the 2021 second-rounder has been cleared to return from a one-game absence. He'll return to his starting job at left guard while Jordan Morgan reverts to a reserve role.

  • Packers' Lucas Havrisik: Filling in for McManus in Week 6

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

    McManus tweaked his right quad at Wednesday's session and then was limited in practice throughout Week 6 prep. The situation spurred the Packers to host tryouts for Havrisik and Greg Joseph on Thursday, and the team signed the former to the active roster one day later. Now that McManus is confirmed to be inactive, Havrisik will fill in for him. Havrisik last kicked in the NFL in 2023 for the Rams, with whom he connected on 15 of 20 field-goal attempts and 19 of 22 point-after tries in nine appearances.

  • Rasheed Walker OT | CAR

    Packers' Rasheed Walker: Good to go for Week 6

    Walker (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Walker registered an LP-DNP-LP practice log this past week while working through a quadriceps injury, but the 2022 seventh-rounder has been cleared to play Sunday.

  • Packers' Zach Tom: Cleared to play Week 6

    Tom (oblique/back) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    A back injury was added to Tom's name on Friday's injury report, but the fourth-year offensive lineman has been given the green light to play Sunday. He'll reclaim his starting spot at right tackle while Darian Kinnard reverts to a reserve role.

  • Bengals' Dylan Fairchild: Will not play Sunday

    Fairchild (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against Green Bay.

    Fairchild was limited in Friday's practice heading into the weekend but doesn't appear to be ready for Week 6 action. With the 22-year-old rookie out, Dalton Risner is set to start in his place.

  • Nate Hobbs CB | SF

    Packers' Nate Hobbs: Good to go against Cincinnati

    Hobbs (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Hobbs has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol and will play in Sunday's home tilt. The 2021 fifth-rounder has logged 10 tackles (five solo) and one pass defense through three regular-season games in 2025.

  • Emeka Egbuka WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Taking on No. 1 receiver duties

    Egbuka is set to serve as the Buccaneers' No. 1 receiver in Sunday's game against the 49ers due to Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (fibula) being ruled inactive for the contest, per Scott Smith of the team's official site.

    The star rookie has already been one of the league's most productive receivers throughout his first five NFL games while playing each without either Evans or Godwin on the field. With both veteran wideouts sidelined Sunday, the Ohio State product will officially assume the role of No. 1 receiver for the first time in his nascent career, where he'll look to improve on the per-game averages of 5.0 receptions, 89.0 receiving yards and 7.6 targets he's generated thus far this season.

  • Ravens' Tavius Robinson: Won't return against LAR

    Robinson (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Rams, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Robinson injured his foot in the second quarter of Sunday's game, and the injury is severe enough that the third-year linebacker will not return. David Ojabo and Mike Green will see more opportunities with the Ravens' defense in Robinson's absence. The Ravens are on a bye for Week 7, so Robinson will have additional time to recover ahead of the team's Week 8 contest against the Bears on Sunday, Oct. 26.
