Bengals' Lucas Patrick: Won't play against Green Bay
Patrick (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Patrick's 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Wednesday. He earned the questionable tag for Sunday's game after ending the week with back-to-back full practices, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a calf injury to play against Green Bay. Patrick hasn't played since Week 1 against the Browns, and his next chance to play is Thursday at home against the Steelers.

Chargers' Bobby Hart: Signed to Bolts' active roster
The Chargers signed Hart from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.
Hart's addition to the active roster gives the Chargers much-needed depth at offensive tackle with both Trey Pipkins (knee) and Joe Alt (ankle) both ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Hart last saw regular-season action in 2022 with the Bills and made his last start in 2021 with the Titans.

Darnell Wright OT | CHI
Bears' Darnell Wright: Green light to play Monday
Wright (elbow) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against Washington.
Wright was a full participant in Saturday's practice, which was enough for the Bears to clear Wright to play Monday after he was sidelined for Chicago's Week 4 win over Las Vegas. He'll reclaim his starting job at right tackle while Theo Benedet and rookie second-rounder Ozzy Trapilo provide depth at the position.

Lions' Giovanni Manu: Lands on IR with knee injury
The Lions placed Manu (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
Manu popped up on Thursday's practice report due to a knee injury and was unable to practice Friday. The injury appears severe enough for him to go on IR, and the 2024 fourth-rounder will be forced to miss at least the next four games, making Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16 the earliest he can return. With Manu and Taylor Decker (shoulder) both out, Dan Skipper is in line to start at left tackle against Kansas City on Sunday.

The injury is severe enough for Maddox to miss Sunday's game, and his next chance to play is Week 7 against the Buccaneers on Monday, Oct. 20. Arthur Maulet was elevated from the practice squad and could see rotational snaps in the secondary in Maddox's absence.

Cardinals' Blake Gillikin: Lands on IR with back injury
The Cardinals placed Gillikin on injured reserve Saturday due to a back injury, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.
Gillikin appeared on Thursday's practice report due to a back injury, which is severe enough for him to warrant a stint on injured reserve. He'll be required to miss at least the next four games, making Week 11 against the 49ers on Sunday, Nov. 16 the earliest he is eligible to be reinstated off IR. Pat O'Donnell will serve as the Cardinals' punter against the Colts on Sunday and likely for as long as Gillikin is shelved.

Owen Wright RB | HOU
Buccaneers' Owen Wright: Elevated ahead of Week 6
The Buccaneers elevated Wright from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.
Wright was signed to the Bucs' practice squad Tuesday, and he'll be on the team's active roster for Sunday's home clash against the 49ers. He'll be expected to serve as the Buccaneers' RB3 behind Rachaad White and Sean Tucker due to the absences Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) and Josh Williams (concussion). Wright last saw action in 2023 as a member of the Ravens, when he played in one regular-season game and played solely on special teams.

Saints' John Ridgeway: Won't play vs. New England
Ridgeway (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

The 2022 fifth-rounder opened the season on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury that he sustained during training camp in late July.
