Head coach Mike McDaniel relayed Monday that Daniels still needs "several weeks" to return from a pectoral injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Daniels was placed on injured reserve following the Dolphins' Week 1 loss to the Colts due to a pectoral injury. He has been sidelined for the four games required when placed on IR, but the 2018 second-rounder has a long way to go before being cleared to return. Cole Strange has started at right guard in each of Miami's last two games and should continue to do so for as long as Daniels is out of action.

Fulton (ankle) is inactive for Monday night's contest against the Jaguars, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Fulton will be forced to miss a third consecutive game, as he continues to nurse an ankle injury that he suffered in the team's Week 2 loss to the Eagles. In his absence, Nohl Williams and Josh Williams will once again see an increase in workload at cornerback versus Jacksonville.

Worthy (shoulder/ankle) is listed as active Monday at Jacksonville, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Worthy put an end to a two-game absence Week 4 against the Ravens after recovering from the dislocated right shoulder that he suffered in the season opener. Overall, he played 59 percent of the snaps en route to five catches (on eight targets) for 83 yards and two carries for 38 yards. Worthy proceeded to be listed as a full participant during Week 5 prep, but his status was changed to questionable after his ankle swelled up on the Chiefs' flight to Jacksonville. However, now that his status is confirmed for Monday's contest, Worthy will slot in as Kansas City's No. 1 wide receiver.

Milum (knee) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Chiefs.

The third-round rookie offensive lineman is still waiting to make his regular-season NFL debut.

Walker (wrist) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Chiefs.

Walker underwent wrist surgery seven days ago and was able to get in a limited practice Saturday, but he's not quite ready to play. Dawuane Smoot and Emmanuel Ogbah should be in line for increased reps along the defensive line.

Coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that the Cardinals will "see how the week goes" after Murray emerged from Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Titans with a foot injury, Howard Balzer of USA Today reports.

Murray missed three offensive snaps in the third quarter of Sunday's game due to a listed foot injury, but he was able to return and finished with 220 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions on 23-for-31 passing, four carries for 25 yards and a TD and a lost fumble. It marked the first time in five contests this season in which he didn't toss for a touchdown, and he now has four turnovers (three INTs and the fumble) on the campaign. The Cardinals will kick off preparations for Sunday's road matchup with the Colts on Wednesday, at which point Murray's status for Week 6 may begin to come into focus.

Coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Dorsey (concussion) will be out "for a while," Justin Rogers of DetroitFootball.net reports.

Dorsey logged just 19 defensive snaps across the first four games of the season before missing Sunday's win over the Bengals. With all of the injuries in the Lions' secondary, Dorsey likely would have been looking at an increased role on defense, but he'll join Terrion Arnold (shoulder) and D.J. Reed (hamstring, IR) on the shelf.

Speights suffered a high-ankle sprain in Thursday night's loss to the 49ers and is not expected to play Sunday against the Ravens, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Speights will likely be listed as doubtful for Week 6 versus Baltimore. He's likely looking at a multi-week absence. Speights has logged 64 percent of the defensive snaps alongside every-down LB Nate Landman in the middle of the Rams' defense. Troy Reeder will likely be the next man up at linebacker for Los Angeles.

Parkinson is in the league's concussion protocol, but coach Sean McVay said Monday he expects Parkinson to be available to play Sunday against the Ravens, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

With Tyler Higbee (hip) out last Thursday night against the 49ers, Parkinson started the game and played 37 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps. He failed to catch his lone target, which was an end-zone shot from Matthew Stafford. Parkinson has four catches for 11 yards on five targets this season.

Though Barkley (knee) had general soreness coming out of Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that the running back fully expects to play Thursday night against the Giants.

Barkley was notably listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, but Rapoport's report suggests that the star back isn't in danger of being sidelined Thursday. That said, Barkley's status still is worth monitoring ahead of Week 6 action, with added context on that front slated to arrive via Tuesday's practice report.
