Giants coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Dart (hamstring) is expected to take the field for Wednesday's practice, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.

Daboll said Dart is "doing good" after having picked up a hamstring injury during Sunday's 21-18 upset win over the Chargers, per Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports. The rookie first-round pick managed to play through the issue Sunday and lead New York to their first win of the 2025 campaign, while completing 13 of 20 passes for 111 yards and a touchdown and rushing 10 times for 54 yards and another score. While it's encouraging that Dart appears to have avoided a severe injury in his first NFL start, top wideout Malik Nabers (ACL) sustained a season-ending injury Week 4, leaving Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt and tight end Theo Johnson positioned as the Giants' top pass catchers moving forward. As such, Dart will figure to pilot a run-heavy offense Week 5 on the road against New Orleans on Sunday, Oct. 5.

Reed is a candidate to be placed on injured reserve after sustaining a hamstring injury in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Reed played 50 defensive snaps and recorded four total tackles and three passes defended, including one interception, before exiting Sunday's win with a hamstring injury. Although he may be placed on injured reserve, Rapport noted that the injury likely won't require surgery. With Reed expected to be sidelined for several weeks, Khalil Dorsey and Rock Ya-Sin are the next men up in Detroit's secondary.

Okoronkwo is believed to have sustained a torn triceps in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers and will be placed on injured reserve, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

The veteran defensive lineman from Oklahoma is expected to miss the remainder of the season following his injury Sunday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. This is a hit to Philadelphia's defensive depth, as Okoronkwo was expected to serve as one of the team's top rotational edge rushers this season. While he's sidelined, expect Azeez Ojulari and Joshua Uche to play increased snaps with Philadelphia's first-team defense.

Singletary rushed seven times for 28 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's 21-18 victory versus the Chargers.

With Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) sidelined, Singletary was the only Giants RB other than Cam Skattebo to get action on offense. While Skattebo was deployed as the clear lead back -- he logged 57 offensive snaps to Singletary's 19 -- the latter finished with season-high marks in both touches and yards. Singletary remains an unappealing fantasy asset in most formats, but he figures to continue seeing a slight uptick in usage for as long as Tracy is unable to suit up.

McNichols rushed two times for three yards and caught one of two targets for no yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Falcons.

The veteran back played fewer offensive snaps (17) than Chris Rodriguez (20) and matched Jacory Croskey-Merritt (17) in Sunday's loss. McNichols also received fewer touches than both Rodriguez (seven) and Croskey-Merritt (nine), suggesting he's firmly behind them in the Commanders' backfield rotation. He's likely to remain a depth option, working primarily on passing downs, in Washington's Week 5 matchup against the Chargers.

Moore went without a catch on three targets and rushed once for nine yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Falcons.

The veteran wideout played 36 offensive snaps and operated as Washington's No. 2 wideout without Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin) in Week 4, but it didn't lead to an increase in production. Moore has now caught three of six targets for 59 yards over three appearances this season. He could remain more involved in the Commanders' offensive gameplan if McLaurin or Brown are sidelined again in the Week 5 matchup against the Chargers.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Tillman (hamstring) will be sidelined for "weeks," Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Tillman and DeAndre Carter (knee) both appear in line to miss multiple games, beginning Week 5 against the Vikings, though Stefanski didn't specify whether either wide receiver is considered a candidate to land on IR. Across four regular-season appearances thus far, Tillman has secured 11 of 20 targets for 106 yards and two touchdowns. As long as Tillman remains sidelined, Isaiah Bond will figure to handle an expanded role alongside No. 1 receiver Jerry Jeudy.

Ertz caught two of four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Falcons.

The 34-year-old tied Luke McCaffrey for the second-most receiving yards on the Commanders in Week 4, trailing Deebo Samuel's 72-yard performance. Although he ranked second on the team in yards, Ertz's performance was a little underwhelming considering two of the team's top three wideouts, Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin), were sidelined Sunday. Regardless, Ertz's target volume will likely stabilize when Jayden Daniels (knee) returns from injury, which could come in the Week 5 matchup against the Chargers.

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Jennings (undisclosed) is up in the air for Thursday's matchup against the Rams, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Jennings had sat out Week 3 due to ankle and shoulder injuries before retaking the field during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars in which he secured two of four targets for 24 yards and at one point had to be evaluated on the sidelines after suffering a hit to the ribs. Monday's official practice report will reveal the injuries Jennings is currently dealing with, as well as his activity level, and his status will need to be closely monitored with a short week of preparation on deck before a road Thursday Night Football matchup. Brock Purdy (toe) and Ricky Pearsall (knee) also are being evaluated.

Lane caught two of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Falcons.

The rookie had the most productive game in his pro career as a wide receiver Sunday, operating as Washington's No. 3 option with Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin) sidelined. Lane has now caught five of his 11 targets for 29 yards while accumulating 177 punt-return yards, including a 90-yard TD, over his first four NFL games. He's likely to remain a depth option ahead of a Week 5 matchup against the Chargers, though his role could continue to expand if McLaurin and Brown remain out.
