  • Jets' Michael Carter: Not traveling to London

    Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Carter (concussion) won't travel with the team for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos in London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Carter missed the Jets' Week 5 loss to the Cowboys due to a concussion and is now in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest. Glenn noted that Carter may travel to London later in the week and join the team, but it's generally not a positive sign that he didn't travel with them initially. If the Duke product is sidelined again in Week 6, Isaiah Oliver and Malachi Moore will likely see increased work in the Jets' secondary.

  • Ameer Abdullah RB | JAC

    Colts' Ameer Abdullah: Rushing TD late in blowout win

    Abdullah had two carries for six yards, including a two-yard rushing touchdown, in Sunday's 40-6 win over Las Vegas.

    Abdullah was just called up from the practice squad ahead of the game. He only got carries late in the game amid a blowout win. DJ Giddens remains the clear backup to Jonathan Taylor while Tyler Goodson (groin) is sidelined. Abdullah will likely see most of his usage on special teams whenever he's active.

  • DJ Giddens RB | IND

    Colts' DJ Giddens: Gets five carries in blowout win

    Giddens had five carries for 22 yards and no receptions with a drop on his one target in Sunday's win over Las Vegas.

    Giddens played on nine of the offense's 66 snaps. He was used in the second quarter before the game became a blowout, which was encouraging as the Colts had gone several games without giving starter Jonathan Taylor any rest in a close game. However, Giddens dropped a catchable ball on the offense's second series. Ameer Abdullah did score a rushing touchdown late in the game, but he's a clear third or fourth option in the backfield as he got time in a blowout win.

  • Dawson Knox TE | BUF

    Bills' Dawson Knox: Catches two passes vs. Patriots

    Knox caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Patriots.

    Prior to Sunday night's loss, Knox hadn't caught a pass since the Bills' Week 2 win over the Jets. The veteran tight end from Ole Miss has primarily served as a blocker this season, catching six of 10 targets for 54 yards across Buffalo's first five games. He's expected to continue operating behind Dalton Kincaid in the Bills' Week 6 matchup against the Falcons.

  • Alex Singleton LB | DEN

    Broncos' Alex Singleton: One sack in win

    Singleton recorded six tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Eagles.

    After another impressive performance, Singleton has now recorded 44 total tackles through five games, a team high in takedowns. The 31-year-old has bounced back in a major way from a 2024 campaign that was ended short due to an ACL tear suffered in Week 3. Singleton continues to be a solid IDP option as a key member of the the Broncos' strong defensive unit in 2025. The veteran linebacker will look to build upon his excellent start to the season when the the Broncos face the Jets in London in Week 6.

  • Ty Johnson RB | BUF

    Bills' Ty Johnson: Two carries vs. New England

    Johnson rushed twice for 10 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Patriots.

    Johnson played 12 offensive snaps and operated as Buffalo's top reserve running back for the third consecutive game in Week 5. He's now tallied 10 carries for 53 yards and one catch for eight yards across 73 offensive snaps this season. The Maryland product is expected to operate in a similar role in the Week 6 matchup against the Falcons, contributing both on offense and special teams.

  • Buccaneers' Lavonte David: Complete defensive effort Sunday

    David recorded nine tackles (five solo), including one for loss, and an interception in Sunday's 38-35 win over the Seahawks.

    The elder statesman of the Buccaneers defense was in vintage form Sunday, sharing the team lead in tackles with Jacob Parrish and recording his first interception of the season at a critical moment. David got hold of a deflected Sam Darnold pass intended for Cooper Kupp at the Seahawks' 38-yard line with just under a minute remaining, setting Tampa Bay up in prime position for what would eventually be a game-winning field goal. The indefatigable David isn't showing any signs of slowing down early in his age-35 season, already posting three tallies of at least nine stops and playing every single defensive snap against Seattle.

  • Ray Davis RB | BUF

    Bills' Ray Davis: Quiet again in Week 5

    Davis rushed twice for one yard in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Patriots.

    The second-year pro from Kentucky has now rushed 13 times for 30 yards over the Bills' first five games this season, playing 38 offensive snaps. In Sunday night's loss, Ty Johnson logged more offensive snaps than Davis (12 to six) for the third consecutive game, suggesting that he's taken over as Buffalo's No. 2 running back. Davis is likely to play a limited role in the Bills' offense again in the Week 6 matchup against the Falcons.

  • Tez Johnson WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Makes presence known in win

    Johnson secured all four targets for 59 yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

    The rookie filled a bigger role than expected in the wild victory, making excellent use of his 22 snaps, which amounted to 36 percent of the Buccaneers' offensive plays. Johnson displayed his trademark shiftiness after the catch, gaining 31 of his yards post-reception. He's thought to have much more upside than the standard seventh-round pick after finishing his college career at Oregon with back-to-back 10-touchdown seasons, and perhaps Sunday's production will serve as a launchpad for more opportunity.

  • Sean Tucker RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Does little with six touches

    Tucker rushed three times for three yards and brought in all three targets for minus-4 yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

    The expanded role as Sunday's No. 2 back afforded to Tucker due to Bucky Irving's (foot/shoulder) absence didn't end up netting much opportunity for the speedy third-year pro, who logged a modest 13 snaps from scrimmage (21 percent). Tucker didn't find any room to operate when he did have the ball in his hands, making it a completely non-descript day from a fantasy standpoint. Irving is expected to remain out for Sunday's Week 6 home showdown against the 49ers, however, so Tucker should have another opportunity to spell interim lead back Rachaad White on occasion during that contest.
