Madubuike (neck) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Madubuike has not practiced in full since suffering a significant neck injury in September of 2025. If he's able to participate in full throughout Week 3 prep, the defensive tackle could be cleared to make his season debut against the Cowboys in Rio on Sunday.

The Saints placed Banks (ankle) on injured reserve Wednesday.

Banks' move to injured reserve doesn't come as a surprise, as it was previously announced he'd be forced to miss at least 10 weeks after undergoing surgery for a high-ankle sprain. In his absence, Mason Murphy will serve as the team's primary backup tackle.

Hooker (forearm) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Hooker was sidelined during Sunday's win versus the Commanders with the forearm fracture he suffered in Week 1 against the Giants, and his availability for Week 3 is also in jeopardy. Unless he's able to return to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday, he's probably trending towards missing Sunday's contest versus the Ravens.

Buchanan (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Buchanan was a full participant in practice for the first time since the linebacker suffered an ACL tear last December. With three full practices in Week 3, there is a good chance the training staff will give the 23-year-old the green light to play in Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Allen (hip) was a limited participant at the Jaguars' practice Wednesday.

Allen failed to reel in his only target while playing nine offensive snaps during the team's 20-13 loss to Denver in Week 2. The running back has been limited at practice on and off throughout the entire season while dealing with a hip injury, and he seems likely to be good to go Sunday versus New England.

Hamilton (back) was a limited participant at the Jaguars' practice Wednesday.

Hamilton sustained a back injury in the fourth quarter of the team's 20-13 loss to the Broncos in Week 2, and he wasn't able to return to the field before the end of the game. The defensive tackle will have two more opportunities to log a full practice before Sunday's matchup with the Patriots.

The Bears opened the 21-day practice window for Turner (knee) on Wednesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Turner suffered a torn ACL during Week 8 of last season but is now closer to making his return to the field. The 23-year-old was placed on the reserve/PUP list in August and will have to miss at least two more games as a result before he's eligible to return. Once healthy, Turner could contribute as a depth defensive lineman.

Overshown (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Overshown sat out Sunday's win versus the Commanders due to the hamstring injury he sustained in Week 1 against the Giants, and his status for Week 3 is now up in the air as well. He'll likely have to manage at least a limited practice Thursday or Friday to put himself in a position to play in Week 3 versus the Ravens.

Flott (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Flott was unable to participate in Friday's practice, causing the starting cornerback to sit out Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles. The 25-year-old is back at practice but will need to upgrade to full participation by Friday's session to avoid any injury designation ahead of the Titans' Week 3 game against the Giants.

Raridon (thigh) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Raridon was forced to leave Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers in the first half with a thigh injury, and he was unable to return to the game. The tight end's ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday is a positive sign, and he'll have two more chances to log a full practice before the team faces the Jaguars in Week 3.
