Stanley (toe) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

Stanley re-injured his toe in the Ravens' Week 2 loss to the Saints. The starting left tackle has been dealing with a toe issue since the team's Week 1 win over the Colts. The 32-year-old overcame the issue to start the Week 2 game but aggravated the toe in the process, making it unclear what the next steps for the offensive lineman will be.

Carmona (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Carmona suffered a shoulder injury in the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Eagles. The starting right guard appears to have quickly recovered from the injury, logging full participation in the first practice of Week 3. Carmona should be all set to suit up in Sunday's game against the Giants.

The Patriots placed Pettus (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday.

Pettus exited the second quarter of Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers with an ankle injury. The injury appears to be significant and will require Pettus to miss at least four games on IR before being able to return to the active roster. With Craig Woodson (shoulder) also injured, the team will likely look to sign or elevate a player from the practice squad to fulfill the strong safety role in Week 3 against the Jaguars.

Jennings (hand) does not have any injury designation ahead of Thursday night's game against the Falcons, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Jennings did not participate in Monday's estimated practice with a hand injury. The left guard upgraded to limited participation in the Tuesday and Wednesday sessions, earning the right to start at left guard Thursday in Aaron Banks' (toe) absence.

Banks (toe) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's game against the Falcons, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Banks exited the Packers' Week 2 win over the Jets in the second quarter with a toe injury. The left guard was unable to participate in any Week 3 preparation due to the injury. Donovan Jennings is set to start at left guard for Thursday's game.

Brinson (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's game against the Falcons, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Brinson has been unable to practice since sustaining a calf injury during the preseason. The defensive tackle has been ruled out for a third consecutive week, with no return date in sight.

Melton (toe) did not participate at the Cardinals' practice Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Melton suffered a toe injury during the team's 31-7 loss to Seattle in Week 2, and he is considered day-to-day. The cornerback will have two more chances to return to practice prior to Sunday's matchup with the 49ers. If he can't play this week, Kalen King would be a top candidate to draw a start at slot cornerback versus San Francisco.

Gipson was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Gipson was not listed on the Panthers' injury report to start Week 3. The linebacker exited the team's Week 2 win over the Falcons early to be evaluated for a possible concussion. Gipson was evidently cleared of any potential issue by an independent neurologist during the game and is all set to fully participate in practice leading up to Sunday's game against the Browns.

Williams (Achilles) was a limited participant at the Cardinals' practice Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Williams has yet to make his season debut as he continues to work his way back from an Achilles injury he suffered in December, but he appears to be nearing a return to action. With fellow cornerback Will Johnson (neck) expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 campaign, Williams will have a chance to step into a starting role once he's healthy. The 25-year-old will have two more opportunities to log a full practice before Sunday's matchup with San Francisco.

Brown (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Brown was unable to suit up for the Panthers' Week 2 win over the Falcons due to a back injury. The defensive tackle appears to be ready to return to action, logging full participation in the first practice of Week 3. Brown will likely start alongside Lee Hunter and Derrick Brown in the Panthers' 3-4 defense during Sunday's game against the Browns.
