  • Titans' Kevin Winston: Won't make NFL debut vs. Denver

    Winston (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Winston was limited in practice all week due to a hamstring issue, and the rookie third-rounder will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL regular-season debut. Quandre Diggs and Mike Brown will serve as the Titans' backup safeties behind Amani Hooker and Xavier Woods due to Winston's injury.

  • British Brooks RB | HOU

    Texans' British Brooks: Won't play Week 1

    Brooks (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

    The Texans will go with a four-man backfield that includes Nick Chubb, Dameon Pierce, Dare Ogunbowale and Woody Marks, which means Brooks will be in street clothes for Sunday's regular-season opener. Brooks' next chance to play is Week 2 against the Buccaneers on Monday, Sept. 15, though he's unlikely to play in that contest unless there's an injury in Houston's backfield.

  • Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Available Week 1

    Wicks (calf) is active for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Wicks was sidelined for the entire preseason due to a calf injury, but after getting back on the practice field as of Aug. 27, he logged limited sessions during Week 1 prep, leaving his status in question for Sunday. With his availability now confirmed, he'll be among the wide receivers at the services of QB Jordan Love along with Jayden Reed (foot), rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Savion Williams (hamstring) and Malik Heath.

  • Dolphins' James Daniels: Won't return Sunday

    Daniels (pectoral) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Colts, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Daniels suffered a pectoral injury in the first quarter, which is severe enough for him to not return Sunday. Kion Smith will serve as the Dolphins' right guard for the rest of the game due to Daniels' injury.

  • Packers' Micah Parsons: Debut with Packers imminent

    Parsons (back) is active for Sunday's contest against the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    In his first game action as a Packer, Parsons is expected to have his workload monitored for a few reasons. First, he arrived in Green Bay via trade from Dallas on Aug. 28, giving him a little more than one week to get up to speed with a new defensive scheme. He also has been dealing with a joint sprain in his back that capped his practice reps during Week 1 prep. At the very least, defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley will deploy the versatile Parsons in clear pass-rush scenarios.

  • Jamal Agnew WR | ATL

    Falcons' Jamal Agnew: Dealing with groin injury

    Agnew is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 1 game against Tampa Bay due to a groin injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Agnew didn't play in any preseason games due to an oblique injury, and he's now dealing with a groin issue. He's a depth wideout for the Falcons, but his most prominent role is as a kick and punt returner. Ray-Ray McCloud, Mike Hughes and Natrone Brooks are candidates to work in the return game if Agnew can't return.

  • Logan Wilson LB | DAL

    Bengals' Logan Wilson: Exits with head injury

    Wilson is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Wilson appeared to suffer the injury in the the third quarter while tackling tight end Harold Fannin. Wilson is back in the locker room while undergoing an evaluation for a concussion, and Barrett Carter has seen more snaps with the first-team defense in the former's absence.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Suiting up Week 1

    Reed (foot) is listed as active Sunday versus the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Reed is attempting to play through a Jones fracture in his left foot that capped him to just two limited practices during Week 1 prep and left him questionable for this contest. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Sunday that Reed was expected to play in the Packers' season opener, which has come to pass. With Reed available to Green Bay's offense, he'll join rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks (calf), Savion Williams (hamstring) and Malik Heath as the options at wide receiver for QB Jordan Love.

  • DeShon Elliott SAF | PIT

    Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Won't return Sunday

    Elliott (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jets, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Elliott was initially listed as doubtful to return to Sunday's game due to a left knee injury that he sustained in the second quarter, and the veteran safety will be sidelined for the rest of the contest. Chuck Clark will work with the first-team defense at safety alongside Juan Thornhill due to Elliott's injury.

  • Cody Simon LB | ARI

    Cardinals' Cody Simon: Won't return Sunday

    Simon has entered concussion protocol and has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Saints, Dani Sureck of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Simon may have taken a hit to the head late in the second half on a kickoff return. The rookie fourth-rounder has been diagnosed with a concussion, which means he won't return Sunday and will need to pass the league's five-step protocol in order to play in Week 2 against the Panthers on Sunday, Sept. 14.
