Sadiq (concussion) is trending toward playing in Sunday's game against the Patriots, according to Around The NFL.

After limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Sadiq is upgrading to full participation Friday. If he clears the concussion protocol, he would be in line to resume his role in the Jets' tight end rotation Sunday against New England.

The Colts released Slayton on Friday.

Slayton signed with the team on Sept. 21 and never managed to earn a role on offense despite the Colts having a clear need at wide receiver. That doesn't bode well for Slayton's NFL future with his 30th birthday coming up in January.

The Eagles are signing Milton off the Cowboys' practice squad, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

With Jalen Hurts recovering from a blood clot on his calf, the Eagles are set to start Tanner McKee this Sunday against the Panthers. Should Hurts miss additional time, Milton could eventually become an option to make starts, though he'll likely be focused on learning the offense and otherwise acclimating for the next few weeks.

Cooper (ankle) will be a full participant in Friday's practice, according to the Jets' official X account.

After logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, the rookie's upgrade to full participation is a positive step in his return from injured reserve. The Jets would need to activate Cooper on Friday or Saturday in order to have him available for Sunday's game at New England. It's not yet clear if the team intends to do that.

Mitchell (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Mitchell will miss a third straight game and hasn't practiced at all the past two weeks. Tim Patrick and Isaiah Williams took most of the WR snaps alongside Garrett Wilson last week, but rookie Omar Cooper (IR - ankle) may soon throw his hat into the ring.

Hall (quadriceps) is out for Sunday's game, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

With Hall set to miss a third straight contest, Braelon Allen is in line for another start. Hall still hasn't returned to practice and thus looks uncertain for Week 7.

Holani rushed five times for 20 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks' 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos on Thursday.

Holani filled his usual complementary role behind Emanuel Wilson, and he made good use of two of his touches in particular. Holani gained 13 of his yards on one carry, and he also posted his first rushing touchdown of the campaign on a one-yard run with just under six minutes remaining in regulation. Holani should remain in a low-volume role that could shrink even further if Zach Charbonnet (knee) is activated from the PUP list as expected for a Week 7 home showdown against the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Shaheed brought in five of eight targets for 66 yards, rushed once for two yards, returned three kickoffs for 77 yards and ran back three punts for 39 yards in the Seahawks' 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos on Thursday. He also caught a two-point conversion pass and committed two fumbles, recovering one.

Shaheed's extremely busy stat line included season-high totals across all three components of his receiving line. The veteran speedster tied for second in receptions and was the runner-up in receiving yards as well for the Seahawks on the night, but his lost fumble likely cost Seattle points since it was recovered at the Broncos' 34-yard line late in the first half. Shaheed did provide a critical two-point conversion grab after a George Holani fourth-quarter touchdown to bring the Seahawks within three points, and Shaheed was also the intended target on Sam Darnold's interception in overtime led to Denver's game-winning field goal. Shaheed will carry a modest 14-162-0 line on 27 targets heading into a Week 7 home showdown with the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Sutton brought in two of three targets for 19 yards in the Broncos' 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks on Thursday.

Sutton tied for third in receptions and targets while holding the same slotting in receiving yards for the Broncos on a night when Bo Nix could only manage 107 passing yards. The veteran wideout also took a hard hit on the one target he couldn't corral, and Sam Jane of The Denver Post reported Sutton was seen bent over and slightly limping on the sideline but never required a trip to the medical tent. Like fellow wideout Jaylen Waddle, the long-time Bronco's production has suffered as a result of Bo Nix's tendency to stick to a very short-area passing attack this season, as Sutton is averaging a career-low 9.5 yards per reception heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Waddle secured four of seven targets for 24 yards in the Broncos' 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks on Thursday.

Waddle exited the game briefly due to a shoulder injury, but he was still able to finish as the Broncos' reception and targets leader on the night. Waddle's yardage total, modest as it was, also qualified him for runner-up status in that category on a night when Bo Nix threw for only 107 yards and averaged 4.0 yards per attempt. Waddle's production has suffered collateral damage from Nix's constant short-area throwing thus far this season, as the veteran receiver is averaging a career-low 10.4 yards per reception and just 38.0 receiving yards per game heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.
