  • Jamal Agnew WR | ATL

    Falcons' Jamal Agnew: Ruled out for SNF

    Agnew (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Vikings, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Agnew was injured in the Falcons' Week 1 loss to the Bucs after returning a pair of kickoffs for 57 yards and two punts for 29 yards. Almost strictly a special teams player at this point in his career, Agnew hasn't caught a regular-season pass since 2023.

  • Chimere Dike WR | TEN

    Titans' Chimere Dike: Larger role incoming?

    Head coach Brian Callahan told reporters Friday that Dike has earned more opportunities as a wide receiver, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Tennessee's wide receiver corps underwhelmed in the Week 1 loss to the Broncos, but Dike emerged as one of the team's few bright spots. The 2024 fourth-round pick from Florida tallied 156 total return yards, including a 71-yard kickoff return to put the Titans in field-goal range right before halftime. Callahan told reporters that he's been impressed with Dike's play thus far, suggesting his offensive snap share will increase in Week 2 against the Rams. He figures to slot in as the Titans' third or fourth wide receiver Sunday.

  • Darnell Mooney WR | NYG

    Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Cleared for Week 2 return

    Mooney (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Minnesota, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    Neither does Drake London, who hurt his shoulder during the season opener that Mooney missed. Mooney returns for an interesting matchup, facing a Vikings defense that gave up the most PPR points to wide receivers in 2024 (and seventh most in 2023), despite generally playing well under highly regarded coordinator Brian Flores. Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson often had London and Mooney topping 90 percent snap shares last season, but there's some chance of a limited workload after Mooney's lengthy absence (he was injured seven weeks ago on the first day of training camp).

  • Chase Young DE | NO

    Saints' Chase Young: Remains out Week 2

    Young (calf) won't play Sunday against the 49ers, Matthew Paras of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Young will miss a second consecutive game to begin the season due to the calf injury he suffered in practice leading up to Week 1. His next chance to make his season debut will come Week 3 at Seattle.

  • Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: 'Slim' chance to play Sunday

    Coach Andy Reid said that Worthy (shoulder) "did a little bit" at Friday's practice, and there's a "slim" chance for the wide receiver to suit up Sunday against the Eagles, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports.

    Worthy was knocked from the first drive of the Chiefs' season last Friday against the Chargers when he collided with TE Travis Kelce, suffering a dislocated right shoulder in the process. While the wide receiver has been able to practice in a limited fashion on back-to-back days, Worthy appears to have only a very small possibility to miss no game action as a result. With a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff on tap Sunday, managers should have an alternative lined up for fantasy purposes, assuming he isn't ruled out before then.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Cleared for SNF

    London (shoulder) and Darnell Mooney (shoulder) don't have injury designation for Sunday's game at Minnesota, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    London was injured in the fourth quarter of last week's loss to Tampa Bay, while Mooney missed the game due to an injury he'd been nursing since August. Both are now available to face a Minnesota defense that allowed a league-high 39.7 PPR points per game to wide receivers last year (albeit with the production driven by volume rather than efficiency).

  • Commanders' Deatrich Wise: Done for season due to quad

    Wise (quadriceps) suffered a season-ending injury during Thursday's 27-18 loss to the Packers, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Wise was carted off the field due to the injury, which occurred on a PAT attempt. The team will likely follow up shortly with a move placing him on injured reserve in the coming days. Wise will finish the 2025 season with four tackles (two solo).

  • T'Vondre Sweat DT | NYJ

    Titans' T'Vondre Sweat: Out for Week 2

    Sweat (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Sweat played 38 percent of the defensive snaps in the Titans' Week 1 loss to the Broncos, recording a pair of tackles. His absence in the middle of the defensive line is a boost to Kyren Williams' matchup this Sunday. Look for Shy Tuttle to take on a bigger workload up front for Tennessee.

  • Patriots' Christian Gonzalez: Out again for Week 2

    Gonzalez (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Gonzalez was injured in the early days of training camp and has now been sidelined for more than six weeks to this point. His absence is a boost for Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle this Sunday.

  • Colts' Charvarius Ward: Ruled out against Broncos

    Ward (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Broncos, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    Ward has yet to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and will remain ineligible to suit up until he clears the protocol. His practice participation will bear monitoring ahead of a Week 3 trip to Tennessee. Mekhi Blackmon and Johnathan Edwards are the top candidates for increased Week 2 roles in Ward's absence.
