  • Malachi Moore SAF | NYJ

    Jets' Malachi Moore: Will start Sunday

    Moore will start at safety for the Jets during Sunday's matchup versus Tampa Bay, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Moore is slated to make his first start of the season, as Tony Adams has been ruled out with a hip injury. Moore has recorded six tackles (one solo) across the first two games of the season.

  • D'Andre Swift RB | CHI

    Bears' D'Andre Swift: Slated to play Sunday

    Swift (quadriceps) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Cowboys, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Swift handled 35 combined touches through the first two games of the season and then was limited in each practice of Week 3 prep due to the quad injury. Now that he's in line to suit up Sunday, he'll take on his typical role as the Bears' No. 1 back, assuming he's confirmed to be active about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Jakob Johnson RB | HOU

    Texans' Jakob Johnson: Signed to active roster

    The Texans signed Johnson to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Johnson had been elevated for the first two games of the season and will join the team's active roster. The 30-year-old has seen playing time on both offense and special teams across the team's first two games. While he hasn't recorded any offensive stats, he did manage to block a punt during last week's loss versus Tampa Bay.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Move to IR official

    The Packers placed Reed (collarbone/foot) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Reed was already playing through a Jones fracture in his foot when he sustained a broken collarbone early during a Week 2 win against the Commanders. He's since undergone surgeries for both health concerns and is facing a 6-to-8 week recovery timetable, meaning a move to IR was inevitable for Reed. For at least the next two games, the Packers' receiving corps will be composed of Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Savion Williams and Malik Heath, while Christian Watson (knee) will be eligible for activation from the reserve/PUP list as soon as Week 6 following a Week 5 bye.

  • Tucker Kraft TE | GB

    Packers' Tucker Kraft: Likely to play Sunday

    Kraft (knee) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Browns, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Kraft tweaked his left knee during Thursday's practice and then sat out Friday's session entirely, but the tight end looks like he'll avoid missing any game action. In any case, fantasy managers planning on using Kraft in Week 3 will still want to confirm that he's active for Sunday's contest, with official word on that front set to arrive when Green Bay releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Through the first two weeks of the season, Kraft has performed as one of the top fantasy tight ends with eight catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns on 11 targets to go with a three-yard carry.

  • Ravens' Nnamdi Madubuike: Won't play Monday

    Coach John Harbaugh said Saturday that Madubuike (neck) will be out for Monday night's game against the Lions.

    Per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic, when asked whether Madubuike is a candidate for IR, Harbaugh said "I can't really comment on it right now. I don't know enough to say." The defensive lineman's status is thus cloudy beyond Week 3, a context that represents a concern in terms of Baltimore's pass rush in the coming weeks.

  • Tony Adams SAF | TEN

    Jets' Tony Adams: Won't play Sunday

    Adams (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, look for Malachi Moore to draw the start in place of Adams on Sunday. Adams' next chance to play will arrive Sept. 29 against the Dolphins.

  • Emeka Egbuka WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Expected to be available Sunday

    Egbuka (hip/groin) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Jets, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Egbuka took a questionable tag into the weekend after practicing just once (as a limited participant) this week, but the rookie wideout is trending toward being available versus New York. In any case, confirmation of Egbuka's Week 3 status will arrive when Tampa Bay releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • DeAndre Carter WR | DET

    Browns' DeAndre Carter: Cleared for Sunday

    Carter has cleared concussion protocol and no longer carries an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Carter had been listed as questionable after being limited in practice Thursday and Friday. Now that he's gained clearance to play Sunday, the 32-year-old will be available in Week 3 as a depth wideout and key returner for the Browns.

  • Andre Szmyt K | CLE

    Browns' Andre Szmyt: Cleared to kick Sunday

    Szmyt (calf) is slated to kick Sunday against the Packers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Per the report, Szmyt's MRI checked out okay, and Saturday the Browns removed the 'questionable' designation that the kicker had carried after being limited in practice Friday. In two games thus far, Szmyt has made two of his three field-goal attempts and three of his four extra-point tries.
