Davis-Gaither (foot) was a full participant in practice Thursday.
|
The linebacker was limited during Wednesday's session. Davis-Gaither played in Week 6 against the Colts, recording six tackles (three solo), so his return to full participation should indicate that his injury is not serious. The linebacker has 44 tackles (21 solo) and two pass breakups this season.

|
Hendrickson (hip) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Steelers.
|
As expected, Hendrickson will be on the sidelines in street clothes for Thursday's AFC North tilt, and his next opportunity to play is Week 8 against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 26. Myles Murphy, Cameron Sample and Shemar Stewart are all candidates to see an increase in snaps on defense in Hendrickson's absence.

McCarthy (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
|
McCarthy continues to operate with a cap on his practice reps after getting back onto the field for the first time since sustaining a high right-ankle sprain Week 2 versus the Falcons. Coach Kevin O'Connell previously said McCarthy would need to put together a week of full sessions in order to start, but he also relayed to Alec Lewis of The Athletic on Wednesday that he wasn't ready to name a starter between McCarthy and Carson Wentz (shoulder), the latter of whom has been a full practice participant this week. There's a decent chance O'Connell will make an announcement Friday ahead of Sunday's contest against the Eagles, but McCarthy at least is back in the conversation to lead the Vikings offense on game days.
|

|
Corum (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
|
This is a step in the right direction for Corum, who didn't practice Wednesday after sustaining an ankle injury in the Rams' Week 6 win over the Ravens. How Corum fares in practice Friday will go a long way in determining his ability to suit up Sunday morning against the Jaguars in London. Even if Corum plays, it would be in a reserve role behind Kyren Williams.
|
10/16/2025 4:44:00 PM
|
Diggs (chest) remained limited at practice Thursday.
|
Following back-to-back limited sessions, Diggs has one more chance to upgrade to full participation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. If that doesn't occur, the wideout figures to head into the weekend with an injury designation, but so far there's no been indication that Diggs' Week 7 availability is in danger.
|
10/16/2025 4:14:00 PM
|
Swift was limited at Thursday's practice due to a groin injury.
|
Swift broke out with 175 yards from scrimmage and a receiving TD on 16 touches during Monday's 25-24 win at Washington. He wasn't listed on Wednesday's estimated injury report, but a groin issue has emerged since then for the Bears' No. 1 running back. Swift thus may need to practice in full Friday in order to avoid entering the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game against the Saints.
|
10/15/2025 7:46:00 PM
|
McDonald was not on Wednesday's injury report.
|
McDonald was evaluated for a concussion in Sunday's loss to Denver. He apparently cleared those checks and should be available for a Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.
|
10/15/2025 6:43:00 PM
|
Wentz (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday.
|
Wentz emerged from the Vikings' last game Week 5 against the Browns in London with an injury to his left, non-throwing shoulder. Coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that Wentz handled every throw at Monday's unofficial session, and the veteran signal-caller seemingly maintained that activity level two days later. Per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, O'Connell also wouldn't name a starter for Week 7 between Wentz and second-year pro J.J. McCarthy, who was limited Wednesday in his first practice since he suffered a high right-ankle sprain Week 2. How McCarthy fares as the week continues likely will determine who is under center for Minnesota on Sunday versus the Eagles.

|
Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Wednesday that he plans to design and call more plays with Hunter as the first read, ESPN's Michael DiRocco reports.
|
Hunter had career highs for snap share (79 percent) and route share (88 percent) in Sunday's loss to Seattle, but his seven targets largely came near the line of scrimmage (4.0 aDOT) and led to a meager 4-15-0 receiving line. He's already getting a few schemed touches each week yet has a much lower per-route target rate (19 percent) than teammates Brian Thomas (24 percent), Parker Washington (25 percent), Travis Etienne (23 percent) and Bhayshul Tuten (29 percent). The Jaguars could look to get Hunter more deep/intermediate targets, but that won't necessarily be easy to do against a tough Rams defense this Sunday in London.
|

|
Wagner logged nine tackles (four solo) during the Commanders' 25-24 loss to the Bears on Monday.
|
Wagner played every single snap and led the Commanders in tackles, one of which resulted in a loss. He's recorded at least nine tackles in each of the first six games of the regular season, and his 65 stops is second most in the NFL behind Jordyn Brooks (66). Wagner is well on track to extend his streak of 100-plus tackles to 14 seasons.
|
10/14/2025 11:49:00 AM
|
McNichols rushed two times for five yards and caught three of four targets for 30 yards in Monday night's loss to the Bears.
|
McNichols played 32 percent of the offensive snaps and set new season highs in targets, catches and receiving yards against the Bears. The Commanders appear to have settled on Jacory Croskey-Merritt as the lead ball-carrier on early downs with McNichols as the passing-down back, as Chris Rodriguez played just one offensive snap and didn't touch the ball Monday night.
|
10/13/2025 12:22:00 PM
|
Loop made his lone field-goal attempt during Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Rams.
|
The rookie sixth-round pick from Arizona attempted just one kick in Week 6 due to Baltimore's offensive struggles, converting on a 37-yard try in the first quarter. Loop has impressed through his first six games in the NFL, making nine of 10 field-goal attempts and 15 of 16 point-after tries. With the Ravens having a Week 7 bye, Loop's next opportunity to kick will come in the Week 8 matchup against the Bears.
|

|
Spears rushed five times for 31 yards and caught all four of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Raiders.
|
Spears more than doubled his total touches in his second game back from an ankle injury. Tony Pollard (10-34-0) still spearheaded the Titans' backfield, but the gap in touch distribution inched even closer Sunday. The speedy backup will continue vying for more snaps against the Patriots next Sunday.
|
10/13/2025 12:05:00 AM
|
Goff completed 23 of 29 passes for 203 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Chiefs. He added one rush for seven yards.
|
Goff had an interesting start to the game, as he had a touchdown catch nullified by a penalty on Detroit's opening possession. He was out-dueled by Patrick Mahomes from there, but he still turned in a decent performance, highlighted by three completions at least 20 yards -- including a 22-yard touchdown connection with Jameson Williams. Goff now has multiple scores in each of his last three games.
|
10/12/2025 9:51:00 PM
|
Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 34 yards while adding two receptions for 13 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to Las Vegas.
|
Pollard finished with his worst fantasy score of the season in a seemingly promising matchup against the Raiders defense. The veteran starter still led Tennessee's backfield with 10 carries, finishing five ahead of backup Tyjae Spears. Pollard's reduced touches were rather the result of a poor game script as opposed to a changing of the guard in Tennessee's backfield. Fantasy managers should continue treating Pollard as a potential flex option against the Patriots next Sunday.
|
10/12/2025 9:39:00 PM
|
Bourne finished with five receptions on nine targets for 142 yards in Sunday's 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers.
|
Fresh off posting a career-best 142 receiving yards against the Rams in Week 5, Bourne likely made his managers double take at the box score after hitting that same mark in consecutive contests. The 29-year-old has shown great chemistry with old teammate Mac Jones, as the former Patriots continue to post video-game numbers filling in for injured 49ers starters in 2025. Bourne continued starting in place of Ricky Pearsall (knee) while Jauan Jennings (ribs) returned in a limited capacity but revealed that he was playing with five broken ribs after the contest. If Pearsall is forced to miss a third consecutive game in Week 7, then Bourne's stock would remain elevated for next Sunday's tilt against the Falcons.
|
10/12/2025 8:08:00 PM
|
Pittman brought in two of three targets for 20 yards in the Colts' 31-27 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
|
Pittman's output was below his usual standards, as all three components of his receiving line were season-low figures. The veteran wideout's lackluster afternoon coincided with the return of Alec Pierce from a two-game absence due to a concussion, although the two receivers have very different skill sets and roles within the offense. Given his numbers were essentially outliers, Pittman should have a good chance to bounce back to some degree during a Week 7 road showdown against the Chargers next Sunday.
|
10/12/2025 5:08:00 PM
|
Henry rushed the ball 24 times for 122 yards in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Rams. He added one reception on two targets for eight yards.
|
The Ravens' offensive game plan was to feed Henry as much as possible, limiting the need for Cooper Rush to take to the air. That was effective in the first half, as Henry delivered 18 carries for 90 yards while Baltimore also controlled time of possession. Game script ultimately got away from the team, but this was a needed performance from Henry, both in terms of volume and efficiency. He recorded three rushes of more than 10 yards to top 50 yards for the first time since Week 1. Henry's 25 touches were also his most of the campaign, and he should benefit from the expected return of Lamar Jackson (hamstring) in Week 8, following the team's bye.
|
10/12/2025 4:52:00 PM
|
Smith-Njigba secured eight of 13 targets for 162 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks' 20-12 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
|
Smith-Njigba was in the familiar position of leading the Seahawks' air attack in receptions, receiving yards and targets, posting a new season high in the middle category along the way. His catch total also tied for second highest of the season, and he added three more grabs of 20-plus yards, the most prominent a 61-yard touchdown on a beautifully thrown ball from QB Sam Darnold. The third-year star now has back-to-back 100-yard tallies for the second time this season and takes a robust 42-696-3 receiving line into a Week 7 home matchup against the Texans on Monday night, Oct. 20.
|
10/12/2025 1:28:00 PM
|
Sherwood logged 13 tackles (six solo) and one pass defense during the Jets' 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
|
Sherwood led both teams in tackles Sunday, and his performance marked the fourth time this season that he has tallied double-digit stops. The 2021 fifth-rounder is up to 60 tackles (23 solo) and two pass defenses through six regular-season games and is well on track to record 100-plus tackles for a second consecutive year.
|
10/12/2025 12:54:00 PM
|
Folk made all three of his field-goal tries during the Jets' 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
|
The Jets offense struggled to move the ball down the field Sunday, but Folk helped New York keep pace with field goals from 52, 41 and 38 yards. His three made field goals were his most in a game in 2025, and the veteran kicker has converted on all 12 of his field-goal attempts and all seven of his extra-point tries through the first six games of the regular season.
|
10/10/2025 12:16:00 PM
|
Johnson (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
|
Johnson is good to go after logging a full practice Friday. His return to the field should provide a substantial boost to a Jets pass rush that has struggled since Johnson got hurt in Week 2.
|
10/7/2025 8:17:00 PM
|
Murray recorded five tackles (one solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.
|
Given Murray was on the field for 73 defensive snaps in Week 5, it's a bit surprising he posted his lowest tackle total of the year thus far. He's still on pace for a career high in that category on the season, making him a solid IDP option for a Week 6 tilt at Carolina.
|
9/17/2025 5:54:00 PM
|
Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that Brosmer will operate as the No. 2 quarterback behind Carson Wentz during Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
|
Brosmer spent the first two weeks of the regular season handling emergency No. 3 quarterback duties, but with J.J. McCarthy (ankle) now likely out at least two weeks, he's set for a temporary promotion behind Wentz. Meanwhile, new roster addition Desmond Ridder will work as the No. 3 quarterback versus Cincinnati on Sunday.
|
8/25/2025 7:36:00 PM
|
Allen is in line to begin the 2025 regular season as the Lions' No. 2 quarterback, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
|
Allen was in a battle with Hendon Hooker for the No. 2 slot at quarterback behind Jared Goff in Detroit, and Allen ultimately won out when Hooker was cut Monday. In Allen's last regular-season start back in 2022 with Houston, he completed 20 of 39 pass attempts for 201 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, adding two rushes for one yard.
|

|
Carter has been used in various roles during OTAs as the Giants try to balance his playing time with Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
|
Burns and Thibodeaux are the nominal starters at outside linebacker, but the Giants deployed numerous packages featuring all three pass rushers, including some sets in which Carter shifted inside. The third overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft also got some reps with the second-team defense, including one on which Carter sacked Jameis Winston.
