Head coach Mike LaFleur said Monday that Love (ankle) is expected to do some running Tuesday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

The Cardinals shut Love down for Week 6 as he tends to a lingering ankle injury, so Tuesday's activity from the rookie likely will be to determine where he stands in his recovery. Once the team has the correct info, the next course of action, which isn't known, may be enacted. It's unclear if Love has a chance to return to action Sunday against the Broncos, but Tyler Allgeier and Bam Knight will handle the backfield until the former is ready.

Butler (hamstring) is active for Monday night's game against the 49ers.

Butler returns to the lineup for the Commanders after missing the team's Week 5 tie with the Giants due to a hamstring injury. Butler will be the backup free safety to Jeremy Reaves and should only enter the game if Reaves must exit.

Head coach Mike Macdonald confirmed with reporters Monday that Arroyo will miss "significant time" due to a shoulder injury that he picked up during Thursday's 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

It appears the second-year tight end will not play against the Chiefs in Week 7, and a stint on injured reserve seems likely for Arroyo. He's mostly been used as an extra blocker on offense and as a contributor on special teams, but his absence means Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup are both candidates for more snaps behind TE1 AJ Barner.

Hudson (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve by the Bengals on Monday.

Hudson suffered a torn pectoral muscle during the team's 31-24 win over Miami in Week 5, so his transition to IR comes as no surprise. In his absence, Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample will continue to operate as the team's primary options at tight end this season.

The Commanders placed Jean-Baptiste (pectoral) on injured reserve Monday.

Jean-Baptiste was already ruled out for Monday night's game against the 49ers due to a pectoral injury, which is severe enough for the third-year pro to go on IR. He's required to miss at least four games, so the earliest he is eligible to return is for Week 11 against the Bengals on Monday, Nov. 23.

Williams (knee) is active for Monday night's game against the Commanders, Brooke Evans reports.

Williams was activated from IR on Oct. 10 and played in the 49ers' Week 5 win over the Seahawks. The defensive end will suit up for Monday night's game as he continues to acclimate to his new knee after undergoing ACL surgery in mid-November 2025.

McNichols (quadriceps) was activated from injured reserve by the Commanders on Monday.

McNichols is officially active for Monday night's matchup with San Francisco, returning to action after missing the team's first five games of the regular season while recovering from a quad injury. The running back logged three consecutive full practices to end the week, so he should be back to full health. With Jacory Croskey-Merritt (foot) sidelined in Week 6, McNichols will have a chance to carve out a significant role in the backfield while splitting touches with Rachaad White and Austin Ekeler versus the 49ers.

The Commanders activated Magee (hamstring) from injured reserve, and he is active for Monday night's game against the 49ers.

Magee has been cleared to return from a four-game absence due to a hamstring injury that he sustained in Week 1 against the Eagles. The third-year pro is expected to work mostly on special teams, but his return bolsters the Commanders' depth at inside linebacker behind starters Frankie Luvu and rookie first-rounder Sonny Styles.

Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Charbonnet (knee) is slated for a "full week of work" and has a "good chance" to play Sunday night against the Chiefs, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Since the Seahawks opened Charbonnet's practice window Oct. 1, he hasn't been listed as anything more than a limited participant. Macdonald's comments Monday indicate an upgrade in activity is likely, beginning Wednesday, as the team prepares for a Week 7 showdown with Kansas City. Timing also is at play here, as Seattle must activate Charbonnet from the reserve/PUP list by Wednesday afternoon for him to have any chance to play this season, which of course what is expected. If he's able to do enough to suit up this coming weekend, Charbonnet may not immediately take on a leading role, as Emanuel Wilson and George Holani currently are splitting the backfield reps.

Stout (shoulder) is active for Monday night's game against the Commanders, Brooke Evans reports.

Stout was limited throughout Week 6 prep with a shoulder injury he sustained in the 49ers' Week 4 win over the Broncos. The cornerback has recovered enough to suit up for Monday Night Football opposite Renardo Green.
