Atwell secured his only target for four yards during Sunday's 14-9 victory against the Texans.

The speedster didn't get many opportunities to showcase why the Rams brought him back on a one-year, $10 million contract this season, only taking the field for 25 of the Rams' 60 snaps on offense. More worrying for Atwell's future usage is Jordan Whittington taking 30 snaps on offense and having a role on special teams. In 2024, when Atwell's usage was significantly reduced after Week 7, he recorded just a 14-193-0 line between Weeks 8 and 17. If Atwell drops to fourth on the depth chart, lines like this week would likely become the norm, which will be something to monitor as the Rams travel to face the Titans in Week 2.

Hopkins caught both of his targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Bills.

The veteran impressed in his Baltimore debut, snatching a Lamar Jackson pass out of the air with one hand for his first reception and touchdown as a Raven. He only saw one target after that, though, and played a grand total of 18 snaps, which ranked third among Baltimore wideouts. The Ravens had only 19 dropbacks on a night where they scored 40 points, so there simply weren't a ton of opportunities to go around for anyone other than Zay Flowers, who was targeted nine times. Baltimore tends to be a run-heavy offense that uses two receiver sets more often than not, so there may be a cap on Hopkins' playing time projection and target share.

Singletary rushed three times for nine yards in Sunday's Week 1 loss to Washington.

Singletary didn't get his first carry until the second quarter. He gained eight yards on his second rush attempt but combined for just one yard on his other two carries. Tyrone Tracy was New York's clear lead back with 50 offensive snaps Sunday, while Singletary got 10 and rookie Cam Skattebo logged eight. Both Tracy and Skattebo gathered two catches in the passing game while Singletary didn't even get targeted, so among the trio, Singletary emerged with the least encouraging performance. The Giants' ground game -- and offense as a whole -- struggled in Week 1, though, so it may take another contest or two to get a good handle on how the workload in the backfield will end up being divvied.

Corum rushed once for two yards and secured his only target for 14 yards during Sunday's 14-9 victory against the Texans.

The second-year back started his 2025 campaign in a similar fashion to his role at the end of his rookie year, seeing the field for just 10 snaps and making little impact on the game. Notably, Jarquez Hunter (coach's decision) was inactive for the game, while Cody Schrader was used only on special teams, leaving the backup role to Kyren Williams seemingly Corum's to lose. The Rams' next contest is against a Titans squad that allowed 153 yards rushing to the Broncos in Week 1.

The Cowboys placed Winfrey (back) on injured reserve Monday.

Winfrey was ruled out for last Thursday's Week 1 opener against the Eagles and didn't play after he was injured in practice Aug. 31. He'll now miss at least the next four regular-season games and won't be eligible to return until Week 6 versus Carolina.

Parkinson (shoulder) suffered a sprained AC joint in Sunday's 14-9 win over the Texans, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Parkinson played through the injury after briefly getting checked out in the locker room during the first half. While Tyler Higbee paced the Rams' tight ends in playing time with 35 offensive snaps, Parkinson was in on 29, while Davis Allen saw 22 plays. Rookie Terrance Ferguson played just five snaps on special teams. Parkinson turned his two targets into two catches for minus-6 yards and one lost fumble. It remains to be seen if he'll miss any time with the injury.

Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Patrick will be out for at least one week due to a calf injury, Ben Baby of ESPN reports.

Patrick suffered a calf injury early in the second quarter of Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns. Dalton Risner -- who signed with the Bengals on Aug. 28 -- took over at right guard and should start in Week 2 against the Jaguars due to Patrick's injury.

Head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Jones (ankle) is out for the entire 2025 season, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.

Jones was placed on the Lions' injured reserve Saturday, which meant the 2018 fifth-rounder was required to miss at least four games. However, the ankle injury he suffered in early August is severe enough for him to be ruled out for the rest of the 2025 season. Jones will turn his attention towards rehab and recovery and aim to be fully healthy for the start of the 2026 campaign.

Bigsby turned five carries into 12 yards and added a 20-yard kickoff return during the Jaguars' 26-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Bigsby had the second-most carries on the Jaguars, but it was far from an even backfield split as his 14 snaps on offense was outdone by Travis Etienne (40). Etienne had the hot hand Sunday, turning 16 carries into 143 yards for a 8.9 YPC compared to Bisgby's 2.4 YPC. Bigsby wasn't targeted in the passing game, which will limit his usage as Etienne appears to be the Jaguars' clear lead back early in the season. Jacksonville will hit the road for Week 2 to take on the Bengals on Sunday.

Perryman is considered week-to-week due to a high-ankle sprain that he suffered during the Chargers' 27-21 win over the Chiefs on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Perryman played just eight snaps on defense and did not show up in the box score otherwise before the injury. Rapoport relays that a high-ankle sprain typically carries a 4-to-6 week timetable to return. That likely means that Perryman won't play Week 2 against the Raiders on Monday, Sept. 15, and the 2015 second-rounder is a candidate for a stint on injured reserve, which would force him to sit for at least four games while opening a spot on the Chargers' 53-man roster. Troy Dye ended up playing 33 defensive snaps Friday and is the top candidate to start at inside linebacker alongside Daiyan Henley for as long as Perryman is sidelined.
