Wagner tallied 11 tackles (three solo) during the Commanders' 27-18 loss to the Packers on Thursday.
|
It's the second straight game in which Wagner has logged at least 10 total tackles, and his efforts Thursday brought his total for the season up to 21. The veteran linebacker has registered at least 100 total tackles in all 14 seasons he's played in since being selected by the Seahawks in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft, and he is on track to extend that streak to 15 seasons.

McKee (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
|
McKee got in a limited practice Friday, giving him a chance to back up Jalen Hurts versus Kansas City. If McKee is unable to suit up, Sam Howell will once again handle QB2 duties for the Eagles.

Edwards (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions.
|
The 29-year-old upgraded from limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday to a full practice Friday, suggesting he's moved past his hamstring injury in time to face the Lions in Week 2. Edwards was one of the league's premier inside linebackers in 2024, recording 129 total tackles, including 4.0 sacks, and three passes defended over 17 appearances. Now back to full health, he's expected to as one of the Bears' top defensive playmakers Sunday.

The 49ers placed Kittle (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday.
|
Kittle will miss at least the next four games before potentially returning to action Week 6 versus the Buccaneers. Before departing Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks with a hamstring injury, Kittle produced four catches for 25 yards and a touchdown on four targets over just 20 snaps. Luke Farrell and Jake Tonges are left as the only healthy tight ends on the 49ers' roster, though fullback Kyle Juszczyk is also an option to take on some of Kittle's pass-catching duties. San Francisco could also elevate Brayden Willis from the practice squad to bolster the depth of the group.

Jones rushed eight times for 23 yards and brought in all three targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Bears on Monday night.
|
Jones saw new backfield mate Jordan Mason outpace him by seven carries and 45 rushing yards, but the former made a significant impact as a receiver. Jones shared the team lead in receiving yards with Justin Jefferson, and he also recorded a nifty 27-yard touchdown grab down the right side of the field with just under 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. It remains to be seen if Monday night's ground-attack pecking order will have staying power, but it's conceivable the 30-year-old Jones, who logged a career-high 255 carries over 17 regular-season games in 2024 and came into the season with 1,432 career rush attempts, is slotted into more of a complementary role on the ground behind the younger Mason on the majority of weeks while still retaining a solid pass-catching role.

McCarthy completed 13 of 20 passes for 143 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding two carries for 25 yards and another score in the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Bears on Monday night. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.
|
Making his long-awaited regular-season debut, McCarthy mostly scuffled through the first three quarters before igniting a 21-point outburst in the final period. The 2024 first-round pick connected with Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones for fourth-quarter touchdown passes of 13 and 27 yards, respectively, and he followed those scoring strikes with a 14-yard touchdown run to extend Minnesota's 20-17 lead at the 2:53 mark of the fourth quarter. McCarthy also completed a two-point conversion to Adam Thielen, and he connected with seven different targets overall when factoring in that scoring toss. The second-year signal-caller now will prepare for his home regular-season debut, a Week 2 matchup against the Falcons on Sunday night.

|
Hendrickson posted three tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 17-16 win over Cleveland.
|
Hendrickson didn't disappoint in the season opener a few weeks after getting a revised contract from the Bengals. He totaled three QB hits in the narrow victory, including a third-quarter sack of Joe Flacco. Hendrickson is off to a great start after finishing with 17.5 regular-season sacks in each of the past two campaigns.
|

|
Bates recorded six total tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers.
|
Bates finished tied for the team lead in tackles in Week 1, playing all 56 of the team's defensive snaps. The safety is in his third season in Atlanta, and he remains one of the best players at his position in the league.
|
9/8/2025 10:02:00 PM
|
Walker posted two tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 26-10 Week 1 win over the Panthers.
|
Walker had a quiet game on the stat sheet but did notch four QB pressures. He tallied exactly 10.5 sacks each of the past two seasons to emerge as a solid IDP option.
|
9/8/2025 7:57:00 PM
|
Dodson recorded 13 tackles (six solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 33-8 loss to the Colts.
|
Dodson was a mainstay in the middle of the Miami defense, playing 100 percent of defensive snaps alongside Jordyn Brooks. Dodson logged his third double-digit tackle effort in nine games with the Dolphins, and he should continue to rack up stops as a key member of the defensive unit.
|
9/8/2025 2:46:00 PM
|
Robinson rushed nine times for 33 yards and had one reception for four yards on two targets in Sunday's 17-13 win over Seattle.
|
Robinson had a smooth debut with San Francisco after being dealt from Washington just weeks before the start of the regular season. The 2022 third-round pick slotted directly behind starter Christian McCaffrey and handled 10 touches while playing 18 snaps on offense (24 percent). Robinson and his downhill running style should continue spelling McCaffrey while receiving a handful of touches against the Saints next Sunday.

Giants coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Wilson will start Sunday on the road against Dallas in Week 2, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
|
Wilson struggled significantly in his New York debut versus the Commanders in Week 1, a 21-6 loss in which he completed 17 of 37 pass attempts for 168 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions. The veteran did salvage his fantasy performance to some extent, rushing for 44 yards on eight carries. While Daboll said the team doesn't want to make any rash decisions at quarterback, Wilson will certainly need to turn in a better effort sooner rather than later in order to avoid pressure from rookie first-round pick Jaxson Dart or potentially even veteran backup Jameis Winston.
|
9/8/2025 12:14:00 PM
|
Warner tallied eight total tackles (four solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Seahawks.
|
The BYU product led the 49ers' defense in total tackles in his first game since signing a three-year, $63 million dollar extension to remain in San Francisco back in May. Warner has consistently been one of the NFL's best defenders since entering the league, recording 131 total tackles, seven passes defended, including two interceptions, and four forced fumbles across 17 games in 2024. He's expected to remain the 49ers' defensive signal-caller as the team travels to New Orleans in Week 2.

|
McLaughlin went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-3 on his extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Falcons.
|
McLaughlin missed a 44-yard attempt wide left in the third quarter and then doinked an extra point off the left upright near the end of the fourth quarter that would have put the Bucs up by four points. Instead, it left the door open for the Falcons to potentially tie the game late, though Younghoe Koo missed a 44-yard field goal with six seconds left. McLaughlin figures to be busy this season in the Bucs' high-powered offense. He made 30 of 32 field-goal tries last season and 54 of 56 extra-point attempts.

|
Benson carried the ball eight times for 69 yards and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Saints.
|
The second-year back led Arizona in rushing thanks to a 52-yard scamper around right end on the team's first drive of the second half. James Conner saw 12 carries but gained only 39 yards, with his longest run going for 12, and the split both of touches and of production bodes well for Benson as the season moves forward. He'll look to continue carving out a significant role in the offense at home Week 2 against the Panthers.
|
9/7/2025 6:16:00 PM
|
Conner carried the ball 12 times for 39 yards and caught all four of his targets for five yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Saints.
|
The veteran was bottled up at the line of scrimmage and watched second-year back Trey Benson break off a 52-yard gain to help him lead the Cardinals in rushing on the day, but Conner was able to make an impact with a four-yard TD catch on an underhand flip from Kyler Murray in the second quarter. Benson was expected to cut into Conner's workload as the 2025 season progressed, but the split could tip even further in the youngster's favor based on the duo's Week 1 performances. Conner will look to reinforce his claim to the RB1 role at home Week 2 against the Panthers.
|
9/7/2025 6:06:00 PM
|
McBride caught six of nine targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Saints.
|
He led the Cardinals in receptions, but it was Marvin Harrison who produced a team-high 71 receiving yards. McBride is coming off a massive 2024 campaign in which he posted a 111-1,146-2 line on 147 targets, and while a breakout season from Harrison could cut into the tight end's volume, Arizona's target tree figures to be narrow. McBride will look to stay productive at home in Week 2 against the Panthers.
|
9/7/2025 5:44:00 PM
|
Evans brought in five of eight targets for 51 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-20 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
|
Evans recorded team-high catch and target totals while finishing second in receiving yards to rookie position mate Emeka Egbuka. However, it was the latter and Bucky Irving who ended up on the receiving end of Baker Mayfield's three touchdown passes, leaving Evans with a solid but relatively muted season-opening line. The perennial Pro Bowler could be due for an even bigger workload in a Week 2 road showdown against the Texans on Monday night, Sept. 15.
|
9/7/2025 5:31:00 PM
|
Nacua (head) returned to Sunday's game versus the Texans, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
|
Nacua took a hit to the helmet at the end of a nine-yard catch on the Rams' second possession that caused a notable cut on his forehead. He was deemed questionable to return as he underwent a concussion check, but before getting back on the field, he was seen with a bandage over the wound, per Greg Beacham of the Associated Press. Nacua will look to build upon the three catches (on four targets) for 23 yards that he put up prior to his earlier exit.

Dart will be active as the top backup to Russell Wilson in Sunday's game at Washington, and the Giants could have a package of plays designed for the rookie quarterback, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.
|
Earlier in the week, the Giants listed Dart as their No. 2 quarterback on their unofficial depth chart, a sign that the 22-year-old had beaten out veteran Jameis Winston for the top backup gig on the heels of an excellent preseason in which he completed 32 of 47 attempts for 372 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions while adding six carries for 52 yards and another score. Though the Giants will turn to the veteran Wilson to direct the offense in the season opener, the No. 25 overall pick in the draft appears to have made a strong enough impression over the summer to potentially put himself in the mix for a role in Week 1 that may take advantage of his rushing ability. According to Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post, Dart frequently subbed in for Wilson in the red zone late in drives during training camp, so the Giants could look to use Dart in short-yardage situations in particular. Dart remains likely to get the chance to start at some point during his rookie season, though Wilson would presumably need to perform poorly before the coaching staff would consider a changing of the guard under center.

Dicker went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries during the Chargers' 27-21 win over the Chiefs on Friday.
|
Dicker had no problem connecting on his field-goal attempts from 39 and 36 yards in the second quarter, and all five of his kicks came from within 40 yards. He's coming off a strong 2024 regular season in which he made 30 of 31 field-goal attempts within 50 yards and went 9-for-11 on tries from 50-plus yards. Dicker has missed just five field-goal attempts since the start of the 2023 season and will have his opportunities to show off his kicking power when the Chargers' offense stalls outside the red zone.

Smith secured all three targets for 16 yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
|
As Smith's line corroborates, it was a quiet night for the speedster to open the 2025 campaign. Smith finished behind both Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert in receptions on the night, while No. 3 receiver Jahan Dotson outgained him by 43 yards on the same number of catches. Nevertheless, there's no question more productive days are ahead for Smith, and a Week 2 road rematch with a Chiefs team he recorded 69 yards and a touchdown against in Super Bowl LIX in February may provide just the platform for Smith's first noteworthy performance of the new season.

|
Hurts completed 19 of 23 passes for 152 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed 14 times for 62 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
|
As his final indicates, Hurts was near perfect through the air, but he averaged just 6.6 yards per attempt and saw top two wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith finish with a combined 4-24-0 line on four targets. However, Hurts was a force on the ground, logging the second-most carries for the Eagles behind Saquon Barkley and outpacing his fellow star by two yards for the team rushing lead while also scoring from four and eight yards out on the ground in the first half. Hurts also converted several key short-yardage opportunities, including a third-and-3 with 1:45 remaining via a four-yard scramble that essentially sealed the game for Philadelphia. Hurts completed passes to six different targets overall, and considering he only went without a touchdown toss in two games last season during which he played a normal allotment of snaps, the reigning Super Bowl MVP is likely due for much better passing numbers in a Week 2 rematch with the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 14.
|
9/5/2025 12:28:00 AM
|
Barkley rushed 18 times for 60 yards and a touchdown and brought in four of five targets for 24 yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
|
In what was his first taste of game action since the Super Bowl victory over the Chiefs in February, Barkley often found running room hard to come by against a game Cowboys front seven. While the defending rushing champion's longest run of the night was only 16 yards, Barkley still made an impact via a 10-yard rushing touchdown shortly before halftime, as well as some productive work as an outlet receiver. Barkley was outgained in rushing yards by Jalen Hurts (62 yards), but that should be a rare occurrence moving forward. Another marquee matchup awaits Week 2, as the Eagles visit the Chiefs for a Super Bowl rematch on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Howell is expected to serve as the Eagles' QB2 for Thursday night's Week 1 opener against the Cowboys, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
|
Tanner McKee has a hand injury and isn't expected to be ready to back up Jalen Hurts for Week 1. Howell was acquired from the Vikings in late August.
|

|
The Vikings are signing Wentz to a contract, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.
|
Wentz had a tryout with Minnesota on Saturday, and the team apparently liked what it saw from the veteran QB. Heading into the weekend, Sam Howell had been slated to back up starter J.J. McCarthy for the Vikings, but Howell was traded to the Eagles on Sunday in a deal that also included draft picks. The trade cleared the way for Wentz to be the obvious No. 2 QB in Minnesota, giving the club a veteran backup with plenty of prior success and a mentor for McCarthy, who hasn't yet played in his first NFL regular-season game.

|
Thibodeaux logged six defensive snaps in Saturday's preseason win over Buffalo and didn't notch any defensive stats.
|
As with most NFL teams, the Giants gave their key players limited run in the first game of the preseason, so Thibodeaux's modest playing time isn't any indication of an injury or reduction in role. However, the fourth-year edge rusher may see the field a bit less during the coming campaign after New York selected Abdul Carter with the third overall pick in April's NFL Draft. At the same time, the presence of Carter along with returning vet Brian Burns could help create more exploitable matchups for Thibodeaux, so an increase in the 5.5 sacks he recorded last year is certainly feasible.
