  • Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Shows out in overtime victory

    Van Ness made 10 tackles (seven solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's 20-17 overtime win over the Jets.

    Van Ness tied safety Evan Williams in tackles while logging the most sacks in the contest. The starting weak-side linebacker produced exceptional volume while playing 72 percent of the Packers' defensive snaps. Van Ness had a key sack on Geno Smith during the last drive of the first half to force a Jets punt.

  • Vikings' Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins: Considered day-to-day

    Coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday that Ingram-Dawkins is "day-to-day" after injuring his hip in Week 2 at Chicago, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

    Ingram-Dawkins left in the first quarter of the Vikings' victory in Week 2 after suffering a hip injury, but it seems like he avoided anything too severe. His status will be worth keeping an eye on when Minnesota releases its first official injury report of the week Wednesday.

  • Jets' Jason Sanders: Returns to practice squad

    Sanders reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Sanders was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row ahead of Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Packers. The kicker made his only field-goal attempt in the contest, converting a 32-yarder in the fourth quarter. Sanders can be elevated one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster, and he appears likely to operate as the Jets' starting kicker again Week 3 versus Detroit.

  • Samuel Cosmi OT | WAS

    Commanders' Sam Cosmi: Enters concussion protocol

    Cosmi suffered a concussion in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

    Cosmi entered the NFL's five-step concussion protocol following Sunday's game. The starting right guard will need to progress through the protocol before being cleared for game action by an independent neurologist. If Cosmi recovers quickly, the offensive lineman will have a chance to reach full participation in time to play in Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Barely involved in blowout loss

    Ryland did not have any field-goal tries but converted on his only extra-point attempt during Sunday's 31-7 loss versus the Seahawks.

    In a contest where Arizona's passing attack was all but completely stifled, Ryland only got one opportunity to add to the scoreboard. It's hard for things to go much worse from a fantasy perspective, but the Cardinals have another tough matchup on tap against San Francisco in Week 3.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Titans' Calvin Ridley: Catches first passes of 2026

    Ridley caught both of his targets for 35 yards during the Titans' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    Ridley didn't see a target from Cam Ward during the Titans' Week 1 loss to the Jets. The veteran wide receiver finally got involved offensively with catches of 25 and 10 yards in the third quarter as part of a 12-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a one-yard touchdown scramble by Ward. Ridley was listed as a starter alongside Carnell Tate and Elic Ayomanor, and Ridley's 33 snaps on offense were second most among Titans wide receivers behind Tate (40). Up next for Ridley and the Titans is a Week 3 road tilt against the Giants.

  • Nick Folk K | ATL

    Falcons' Nick Folk: Makes one kick in blowout loss

    Folk made one of his two field-goal attempts in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Panthers.

    Folk missed a 53-yard field goal in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest. The kicker's 41-yard attempt near the end of the first half was the Falcons' only points on the afternoon. Folk is now 3-for-6 on field-goal attempts and has made his sole PAT over the first two weeks of the season.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Misses another kick in Week 2

    Boswell went 1-for-2 on field-goal tries in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Patriots.

    Boswell pushed a 57-yard field-goal attempt wide left in the first quarter before later converting a 56-yarder as time expired in the first half. The kicker has now gone 3-for-5 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-3 from 50-plus yards, over two contests to open the 2026 campaign.

  • 49ers' Eddy Pineiro: No field goals in romp

    Pineiro did not have any field-goal tries but converted on all five of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 35-13 win versus the Dolphins.

    In a game where Miami's defense was picked apart by quarterback Brock Purdy, Pineiro's services were barely needed. San Francisco is off to a scorching start in 2026, and there's not much reason to think the Cardinals defense will be the one to slow the momentum Week 3.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Blocked kick in close loss

    Santos made one of his two field-goal attempts in the Bears' 9-3 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Santos converted a 50-yard field-goal attempt on the Bears' first drive of the game, resulting in the team's only points throughout the contest. The kicker had a chance to tie the game at six points in the fourth quarter, but the 23-yard attempt was blocked by Isaiah Rodgers. Santos has made two of his three field goals this season and all eight of his PATs through two weeks.
