Godwin (ankle) is participating in Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

It remains to be seen whether Godwin goes down as a full participant or limited participant Thursday, but any level of activity already marks a step in the right direction after the veteran wide receiver didn't take part in Wednesday's practice. Even if he alleviates any concerns about the ankle injury by Sunday's game against the Packers, Godwin will still be a risky fantasy option in the first start for undrafted rookie QB Jalon Daniels, who is filling in for Baker Mayfield (thumb).

White (shoulder) isn't practicing again Thursday, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

White is sitting out a second consecutive practice ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Colts in London, which will kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET. If White is unable to suit up, the recently signed Austin Ekeler could slot in for passing-down work in a Commanders backfield that also includes Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Kaytron Allen.

The Steelers and Cowboys have agreed to terms on a trade to send Porter to Dallas, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.

Porter has been staging a hold-in of sorts since the start of training camp, citing a back injury that continually flares up since he begin missing regular-season contests in Week 1. Now that the situation has resolved itself and he's moving on to the Cowboys, it remains to be seen when he may be healthy enough to suit up for actual game action. As for the compensation going back to Pittsburgh, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports the Steelers are receiving a second-round pick and a conditional sixth-rounder from Dallas.

Styles recorded five tackles (four solo) and two passes defensed, including one interception, as well as a forced fumble in the Commanders' 33-31 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Styles and fellow linebacker Kain Medrano combine for two interceptions in Sunday's contest. Styles caught the first pick in the third quarter, intercepting Sam Darnold on first down at the Seahawks' 43-yard line. The linebacker also played all 67 defensive snaps for the Commanders in the close win.

Medrano logged five tackles (three solo) and one pass defensed for a 50-yard pick-six in the Commanders' 33-31 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Medrano intercepted Sam Darnold late in the fourth quarter, taking the pick 50 yards to the house to extend the Commanders' three-point lead to 10 points with 3:57 left to play. The linebacker's heroics all but secured the win. Medrano was starting due to the absence of Frankie Luvu (groin).

Thieneman registered six tackles (four solo) and an interception during the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

Thieneman picked off Andy Dalton on a pass intended for Dontayvion Wicks in the end zone, and the Bears' offense capitalized on the turnover with an 11-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a 29-yard field goal by Cairo Santos to extend Chicago's lead to 10-0. Thieneman has played every single defensive snap through the first three regular-season games of his NFL career, and his 15 solo tackles are tied for seventh-most in the league.

Knight made nine tackles (two solo) in the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

Knight played 56 defensive snaps in the contest, good for 90% of the Bengals' defensive plays. The weakside linebacker led the team in tackles but was unable to do much more in a close shootout loss.

Lawrence logged four tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

The offseason addition to the Bengals' defensive line dominated in Sunday's game, showing why he commanded the tenth overall pick in the 2026 draft as trade capital. Lawrence sacked Aaron Rodgers two times in the contest and accumulated another two tackles, anchoring the middle of the Bengals' 4-3 defensive front.

Buckner registered seven tackles (two solo), including 1.5 sacks, during the Colts' 19-17 win over the Texans in Week 3.

Buckner was responsible for two of the Colts' three sacks on C.J. Stroud in Sunday's win. The veteran defensive lineman got to Stroud early in the first quarter for a four-yard sack before Buckner combined with Adetomiwa Adebawore for a two-yard takedown of the Texans QB late in the second quarter. Buckner has logged at least 0.5 sacks in each of the first three games of the regular season and is up to 3.0 sacks on the year, which leads the Colts and is tied for eighth-most in the NFL.

Wingard made 10 tackles (one solo) in the Cardinals' 36-30 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Wingard led the Cardinals in tackles Sunday, beating out Jack Gibbens' eight. The free safety played all 54 of the team's defensive snaps in the close loss. While participating in 10 tackles, Wingard only brought down one ball carrier by himself in the contest.
