Bishop tallied five tackles (four solo) in Thursday's 31-21 victory over Miami.

Bishop has been quite consistent statistically to begin the campaign, logging four tackles in Week 1 and five apiece in Weeks 2 and 3. He's played every one of Buffalo's defensive snaps so far this season after doing so just twice over 16 regular-season contests last year.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Monday that West will need to undergo surgery to repair a broken thumb, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Despite the necessity of a procedure, Shanahan noted that West could play through the injury with a cast on his broken thumb, which means he has not been ruled out for the 49ers' Week 4 clash against the Jaguars this Sunday, per Branch. West logged two tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.

Coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday that McCarthy (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers in Dublin, Ireland, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

Beyond McCarthy's lack of availability Week 4, O'Connell also noted, "First and foremost, he's got to get healthy. And then, I don't think it's one of those things where it's, hey, he's healthy the night before a game, we're going to throw him out there and say, 'Hey, go figure it out' type of thing." McCarthy emerged from a Week 2 loss to the Falcons with a high right ankle sprain and sat out this past Sunday's win against the Bengals, which allowed Carson Wentz to lead the Vikings offense. Overall, Wentz didn't commit a turnover and compiled 173 yards and two touchdowns on 14-for-20 passing. Wentz will continue operating as the starter for as long as McCarthy is sidelined and potentially even when he's healthy, per O'Connell.

Booker was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain Monday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Booker suffered the injury during Sunday's blowout loss to the Bears and was given a return timeline of between four and six weeks. With Cooper Beebe (ankle) also sidelined, the Cowboys will be missing two key pieces of their interior offensive line for the foreseeable future.

Williams is considered day-to-day due to a wrist injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Williams hurt his wrist in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Cardinals but was able to finish the game after initially being labeled as questionable to return. He logged 65 percent of the 49ers' defensive snaps in the victory and finished with two tackles. Given that he was able to return after getting hurt, there's reason to be optimistic that Williams will be able to suit up Sunday against Jacksonville, though his level of participation in practice this week should provide better insight into whether he'll have an injury designation heading into the weekend.

Tom did not suffer any additional damage to his oblique in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Tom was forced to exit Sunday's contest after just one play on offense, and head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that he "wouldn't say further re-aggravated," in regards to the offensive tackle's pre-existing oblique injury. LaFleur explained that it's hard to simulate game reps at practice, and it appears as if Tom avoided making his injury worse.

Green is managing a neck injury and is considered day-to-day, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Green presumably picked up the issue during Sunday's Week 3 win over Arizona, during which he logged 57 of San Francisco's 66 defensive snaps and finished with four tackles. The cornerback's practice participation level this week should provide more insight about his likelihood of suiting up Sunday versus Jacksonville. If Green can't play in that game, Darrell Luter could be in line for a larger role.

Alexander (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Lions.

Alexander did not feature on the Ravens' injury report this past week, which means the veteran corner will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive game. T.J. Tampa and Keyon Martin will serve as the Ravens' backup corners behind Chidobe Awuzie and Nate Wiggins in Monday's interconference showdown. Alexander's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Chiefs on Sunday.

Lane ran a punt back for a touchdown and lost two yards on his lone reception in a 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

The rookie fourth-round pick was one of five Washington wide receivers with route share above 40 percent but below 60 percent. That was partially a product of Terry McLaurin exiting early with a quad injury and Noah Brown (groin) not being available, but Deebo Samuel also had his snaps scaled way back for reasons seemingly unrelated to any injury. In any case, Lane is making a strong impression in the return game and could eventually take over some of Samuel's tasks on offense if Deebo misses time.

Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Lions.

Mitchell will be a healthy scratch for a third consecutive week as the Ravens roll with Justice Hill and Rasheen Ali as the two rotational running backs behind Derrick Henry. Mitchell's next chance to play is Week 4 against the Chiefs, but the 23-year-old running back is out of the backfield rotation barring injury, illness or suspension to Henry, Hill or Ali.
