Schwesinger, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Ravens due to an ankle injury, will go through a pregame workout before the Browns make a call on his status, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The reigning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year is nursing a Grade 1 right ankle sprain coming out of this past Sunday's loss to the Jets and was contained to one limited practice during Week 6 prep. Schwesinger showed enough during Friday's session for the Browns to keep the door open for him to play Sunday, but he'll need to check out well in his pregame work in order to get the green light to suit up. Official word on the linebacker's status will arrive when the Browns post their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Carter (calf), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Carter sat out the Giants' first two Week 6 practices but "looked explosive" while he was on the field as a limited participant for Friday's session, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. The Giants apparently agree with Raanan's assessment, though Carter won't be officially cleared to play until the team releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Through New York's first five games, Carter has accrued 2.0 sacks among his 14 tackles while also forcing a fumble.

Thomas (groin), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Thomas turned in just one limited practice this week while managing the groin issue, but he looks set to play through the injury Sunday. Official word on the left tackle's status will arrive when the Giants post their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Tucker (quadriceps), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, isn't expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Per Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site, head coach Todd Bowles had been treating Tucker as a game-time call for Sunday after the running back sat out one practice and was a limited participant in two others this week while managing the quad issue. Tucker doesn't look to have made enough progress to suit up this weekend, but a final word on his status will arrive when Tampa Bay posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Tampa Bay elevated Josh Williams from the practice squad and would have him serve as the No. 3 back behind Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell in Tucker's expected absence.

Harris had a "pretty even split in reps" this week with starting running back Cam Skattebo and could be in store for more snaps and touches than usual in Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Skattebo has served as the Giants' lead back through the first five games but is averaging just 3.6 yards per carry and has already fumbled four times (losing one). As a result of Skattebo's ongoing struggles, the Giants may be looking to scale back his workload to open up more work for the likes of Harris and Tyrone Tracy, the latter of whom has reclaimed duties as the team's preferred third-down back. Coming off an Achilles injury that cut short his 2025 campaign with the Chargers, Harris hasn't shown much explosiveness through his first four games in New York, averaging 3.6 yards per carry as well while being a relative non-factor in the passing game (one catch for five yards on one target). Even with the prospect of more touches in Week 6, Harris doesn't make for an attractive option in fantasy lineups.

Skattebo had a "pretty even split in reps" this week with fellow running back Najee Harris and could be in store for fewer snaps and touches than usual in Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Coming off a significant ankle injury that cut short his rookie season, Skattebo has handled a lead role out of the New York backfield through the first five games, playing no fewer than 57 percent of snaps on any occasion while averaging 18.2 touches per contest. The second-year back hasn't shown the same burst he displayed in 2025, however, averaging just 3.6 yards per carry and 7.9 yards per reception while finding the end zone only once. Perhaps more troublingly, Skattebo has struggled with ball security, fumbling four times and losing one. As a result of Skattebo's poor form to begin the season, the Giants may be compelled to lighten his workload Sunday and open up more opportunities for Harris compared to previous weeks.

Campbell (knee), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

After being diagnosed with an MCL sprain in his right knee following this past Sunday's win over the Raiders, Campbell appeared to be in danger of missing multiple games. Improbably, he was able to practice on a limited basis throughout the week and now appears likely to try and play through the injury Week 6. Campbell's status will be confirmed when the Patriots release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Alt (neck), who has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, received favorable news after recently being evaluated by a specialist and is expected to ramp up his activity during the Chargers' Week 7 bye, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Alt will be sidelined for a second straight game, but assuming his neck responds well while he begins ramping back up, he could be back in the lineup for the Chargers' next contest Week 8 versus the Rams on Nov. 1. Alex Harkey replaced Alt at right tackle in the Week 5 loss to the Broncos and could draw another start in his stead Sunday.

Graham (knee/ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, isn't expected to play, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Graham was able to close Week 6 prep as a limited participant after missing practices Wednesday and Thursday, but he wasn't as stable during Friday's session as the Browns had hoped, per Cabot. As a result, Graham looks set to miss a second straight game due to an MCL sprain and an ankle sprain. Cleveland elevated defensive linemen Sam Kamara and Chris Williams from the practice squad Saturday, and both could be active Sunday to provide depth in the likely event Graham is sitting out.

Jones (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans in London.

Jones had been listed as questionable heading into the weekend but will be sidelined for a second straight game due to the hamstring injury after he managed only limited participation in practices Wednesday through Friday. The veteran cornerback is still waiting to make his 2026 debut since being signed to the Jaguars' 53-man roster earlier this month.
