| 11/12/2026 7:28:00 PM | Coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Evans is "real close" to returning from Achilles tendinitis and that he would probably be playing Sunday if it were a playoff game, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports. |
| Shanahan's comments signal the 49ers are taking an extra cautious approach with the veteran wideout in the hopes that he'll be available down the home stretch of the season. While Evans hasn't officially been ruled out for Sunday's game at Dallas, he isn't expected to suit up in Week 10, per Brooke Evans of the 49ers' official site. Until he's fully recovered and ready to go again, his absence should continue to open up additional opportunities outside for 2025 fourth-rounder Jordan Watkins. | |
| 11/12/2026 6:31:00 PM | Hunter (hamstring) was limited in Thursday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. |
| This is the first mention of Hunter's hamstring injury. His availability for Friday's practice should provide more clarity regarding his status for Sunday's game against the Browns, though he should be considered questionable for now. The 32-year-old has appeared in all eight of the Texans' regular-season games, accumulating 10 total tackles (nine solo), including 4.0 sacks. | |
| 11/12/2026 4:24:00 PM | Kincaid (ankle) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice. |
| Kincaid has opened Week 10 prep with back-to-back limited sessions. He has faced plenty of practice limitations throughout the season, but Kincaid has yet to sit out a game. That pattern seems unlikely to change in Week 10 against the Jets. | |
| 11/12/2026 4:23:00 PM | Tuten (ankle/foot) didn't practice Thursday. |
| Tuten didn't practice Wednesday either, though as Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville points out, Tuten logged 'DNPs' Monday through Wednesday last week yet still played in last Thursday's win over the Ravens. In any case, Friday's practice report will reveal whether Tuten is able to work at all this week, as well as his game status for Sunday's game against the Titans. Next up for carries if he ends up sidelined this weekend is Chris Rodriguez (hand), who was limited Thursday. | |
| 11/12/2026 4:10:00 PM | Brown (knee/ankle) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice. |
| Brown has been listed as limited on consecutive days to open the Patriots' Week 10 prep in Munich. He would likely need to upgrade to full participation Friday to avoid carrying a questionable tag into Sunday's game against the Lions, which kicks off at 9:30 a.m. EST. In three appearances for New England, Brown has nine catches for 101 yards. | |
| 11/12/2026 4:09:00 PM | Tate (shoulder) didn't practice Thursday. |
| Turron Davenport of ESPN.com previously noted that Tate was able to work on the side with the Titans' training staff during Thursday's session, but in the end he was officially listed as a 'DNP' for the second consecutive day. Friday's practice will thus loom large in terms of Tate's potential availability for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Next up for added WR snaps this weekend in the event that Tate remains sidelined is Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor and Calvin Ridley. | |
| 11/11/2026 10:43:00 PM | Bernard recorded six tackles (two solo) and a pair of pass breakups, including an interception, in Monday night's 23-6 win over the Vikings. |
| The ball-hawking linebacker picked off Carson Wentz in the third quarter and almost got another pick later in the second half. Bernard has at least one interception in each of the last four regular seasons and has seven total in that span. Across eight games, all starts, this season, Bernard has logged 57 tackles (29 solo), three pass breakups, including the interception, and a fumble recovery on 91 percent of Buffalo's defensive snaps. | |
| 11/11/2026 10:06:00 PM | Lloyd posted eight tackles (five solo) and one pass defense during the Panthers' 26-21 loss to the Broncos in Week 9. |
| Lloyd played every single defensive snap and co-led the Panthers in tackles with Tyrel Dodson. It was the fifth time this season that Lloyd has logged at least seven combined tackles, and the fifth-year pro is up to 54 stops (32 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass defenses (including one interception and a pick-six) across seven regular-season games. | |
| 11/11/2026 9:31:00 PM | Walker posted 11 tackles (three solo) during the Raiders' 38-17 loss to the 49ers in Week 9. |
| It was the second time in three games that Walker finished with double-digit stops, and he finished second on the Raiders in tackles behind Nakobe Dean (19). Walker is on track for his fifth consecutive 100-plus tackle campaign and is up to 72 stops (28 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery through nine regular-season games. | |
| 11/10/2026 12:17:00 AM | Mason rushed six times for 35 yards and brought in two of three targets for seven yards in the Vikings' 23-6 loss to the Bills on Monday night. |
| Mason was markedly more efficient than backfield mate Aaron Jones with his opportunities, averaging 5.8 yards per carry compared to the latter's 3.2. Both backs' touches were limited due to game script, however, but Mason's YPC was an encouraging figure. The veteran back next takes aim at the Packers defense in a Week 10 road matchup on Sunday. | |
| 11/9/2026 11:48:00 PM | Allen completed 21 of 31 passes for 234 yards with one touchdown and one interception while adding six carries for 15 yards in the Bills' 23-6 win over the Vikings on Monday night. |
| Allen came into the night undoubtedly expecting to have to work for everything he got, and Brian Flores' aggressive defensive unit helped validate that prognosis by sacking the star signal-caller on four occasions. However, Allen was able to navigate the dangers pretty effectively, spreading the ball around to eight different targets overall. He connected with Keleki Latu from 25 yards out late in the first half for his one touchdown pass, and Allen's lone turnover, a first-quarter interception on a deep shot in the Vikings' end zone, didn't lead to any Minnesota points. Allen hasn't eclipsed the 300-yard threshold since Week 1, but he'll take 2,027 passing yards and a 12:6 TD:INT alongside 285 rushing yards into a Week 10 road divisional clash against the Jets on Sunday. | |
| 11/9/2026 12:17:00 AM | Swift rushed 12 times for 31 yards and didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Buccaneers. |
| Swift was bottled up by an elite Buccaneers run defense that came into Week 9 allowing a league-low 80 rushing yards per game. He nearly had a fumble in the fourth quarter but was ruled down by contact on a play that the Buccaneers unsuccessfully challenged. Swift's momentum came to an abrupt halt with this season-worst performance, as he failed to reach 70 scrimmage yards for the first time all season after racking up seven touchdowns in the preceding four games. After Chicago's Week 10 bye, Swift could be back to sharing the backfield with Kyle Monangai (thumb/toe), who hasn't played since Week 4 but recently returned to practice. | |
| 11/8/2026 8:31:00 PM | Dobbins rushed four times for 18 yards and caught his only target for four yards during Sunday's 26-21 win over Carolina. |
| Dobbins saw 13 fewer carries than rookie running back Jonah Coleman (17-57-1) in the game. The four rushes were a season low for Dobbins, and he figures to continue to operate as the team's No. 2 option in the backfield moving forward. | |
| 11/8/2026 7:53:00 PM | McCaffrey rushed 18 times for 68 yards and a touchdown while catching two of three targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-17 win over the Raiders. |
| McCaffrey got banged up in San Francisco's Week 7 loss to the Falcons, but a Week 8 bye allowed his hamstring to heal, and the star running back handled 20 touches Sunday while scoring twice to bring his season total to 10 touchdowns. He capped San Francisco's opening drive with a one-yard touchdown run and added a 12-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. Rookie third-round pick Kaelon Black led the 49ers with 70 rushing yards on 11 carries, but McCaffrey remains the lead back heading into a Week 10 trip to Dallas, during which CMC will try to extend a seven-game touchdown streak. | |
| 11/8/2026 7:16:00 PM | McMillan caught four of six targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Broncos. |
| The second-year wideout caught Bryce Young's third TD of the afternoon, a four-yard toss late in the fourth quarter that gave the Panthers some late hope. It was McMillan's first trip to the end zone since Week 4, and through eight games he's collected a 46-625-3 line on 71 targets. He'll look to build on this performance in a Week 10 road trip to New Orleans. | |
| 11/8/2026 6:47:00 PM | Nix completed 25 of 37 passes for 237 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Panthers. He added two rushing yards on five carries. |
| The Broncos had the home team right where they wanted them heading into the fourth quarter -- holding a lead -- and Nix worked his usual magic over the final 15 minutes, leading back-to-back touchdown drives capped by a nine-yard TD run from Jonah Coleman and a 26-yard strike to Pat Bryant for what proved to be the winning score. Nix did throw his first INT since Week 3 in the win, but he heads into a Week 10 bye with Denver riding a five-game win streak that has taken it to the top of the AFC West. | |
| 11/8/2026 2:15:00 PM | Higgins caught five of six targets for 32 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-17 win over Atlanta. |
| While he didn't see big volume, Higgins made his opportunities count, connecting with Joe Burrow on a four-yard TD in the second quarter and an eight-yard score in the third. Higgins has hit paydirt five times in the last three games, and on the season he's produced a 48-758-6 line on 67 targets through eight contests. He'll look to extend his scoring streak in Week 10 during a crucial AFC North clash with the Steelers. | |
| 11/6/2026 12:28:00 AM | Little made all four of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries in a 33-10 win over Baltimore on Thursday. |
| The Jaguars dominated in the victory, but they fell short of the end zone enough times to keep Little busy. He didn't need to fully flex the strength of his leg, as his longest kick was from a modest 47 yards out, but Little extended his run of consecutive successful FG attempts to 10. He's now gone 14-of-16 on field-goal tries this season while converting 25 of 26 point-after attempts. | |
| 11/3/2026 4:44:00 PM | The Ravens placed Loop (groin) on injured reserve Tuesday. |
| Loop emerged from Sunday's blowout loss to the Bills with a right groin injury, which will keep him out for at least the next four games. Baltimore plans to elevate or sign Jake Moody off its practice squad to take over as its kicker beginning with Thursday's game against Jacksonville. Through Baltimore's first eight contests, Loop went a perfect 18-for-18 on point-after attempts but missed four of his 17 field-goal tries. | |
| 10/30/2026 9:05:00 PM | Wilson (knee) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. |
| Wilson's practice reps were limited due to a knee injury, but the veteran linebacker's full practice Friday was enough for him to fade an injury tag for Sunday's road game. The 2019 fifth-rounder has 47 tackles (20 solo), one pass defense and one forced fumble through seven regular-season games. | |
| 10/27/2026 9:59:00 PM | Knight totaled eight tackles (two solo) and an interception during the Bengals' win over the Ravens on Sunday. |
| Knight finished third on the team in tackles behind Bryan Cook and Barrett Carter during the victory, in addition to snagging his first interception of the campaign. The 26-year-old continues to have a productive season, as he's now recorded seven or more tackles in five of his six appearances, bringing his total on the campaign to 50 (21 solo). | |
| 10/27/2026 9:51:00 PM | Wilson totaled six tackles (three solo) and an interception during Pittsburgh's win over the Saints on Sunday. |
| Wilson had a solid outing in the win, as he recorded the team's lone interception of Tyler Shough. The 26-year-old has now compiled 61 tackles (33 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and an interception across the first seven games of the campaign. He will look to keep producing during next week's matchup against the Browns. | |
| 9/22/2026 10:02:00 PM | Ponder logged five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, and recovered a fumble he returned for a touchdown in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers. |
| Ponder recovered an Aaron Rodgers fumble and took it 19 yards for a touchdown to extend the Patriots' 13-3 lead to the game-winning 20-3 score. The outside linebacker played 77 percent of the team's defensive snaps in the contest. | |
| 9/2/2026 7:42:00 PM | Coach Sean Payton said Wednesday that Stidham will be the Broncos' backup quarterback to begin the 2026 season, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. |
| Sam Ehlinger pushed Stidham during training camp for his spot on Denver's depth chart behind starter Bo Nix, and the team opted to keep three quarterbacks on its initial 53-man roster, but at least for now, Stidham is second in the pecking order. Unless Nix gets hurt at some point, neither Stidham nor Ehlinger would be expected to get any snaps in a reasonably close game. | |
| 3/9/2026 7:46:00 PM | Allen is set to sign a two-year, $4.1 million contract with the Bills, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. |
| Allen has spent most of his career as a backup and played in three games for Detroit last season, going 0-for-2 on pass attempts. With Buffalo, he'll likely be the No. 2 QB behind Josh Allen and replace previous backup Mitchell Trubisky, who is expected to sign with Tennessee. Kyle Allen's contract could be worth up to $6.1 million with incentives, per Schefter. | |
