Hendrickson reportedly broke his finger “into several pieces” last week, yet still managed to record six quarterback pressures and one sack in Week 2. He should play again in Week 3 against the Cowboys in Brazil.
Meyers played through this thumb listing last week and was limited in back-to-back sessions to start the week; he should be considered likely to play against the Patriots.
Etienne remains limited, which keeps him in the questionable camp for the Saints’ Week 3 game against the Raiders. Saints RB3 Kendre Miller was sidelined by an illness, but those rarely impact NFL players’ availability on game day. Veteran RB Alvin Kamara should be rostered wherever he is available.
Illnesses very rarely sideline players on game day, though this is worth tracking. Saints committee leader, RB Travis Etienne, remains limited by a hamstring injury. Saints RB2 Alvin Kamara could log a decent touch count this weekend against the Raiders, though he is a fairly inefficient player at this point.
It seems like Brown is very unlikely to play at this point. His agility and long speed define his game as a gadget player and return specialist. His absence could benefit WR2 Devaughn Vele and WR Bryce Lance.
Bell said the fluid and soreness have been bothering him since Week 1, but he has been pushing through it. The team is now limiting his practice reps so he can spend extra time working with the training staff. As far as how it impacts him, Bell said he has to spend more time warming up than he has in the past to avoid stiffness. Bell tore his ACL in November 2025. He is not yet running a full complement of routes and will likely remain on a snap count, at least in the short term.
This is great to see. Bowers has now participated in three consecutive practices, dating back to last week. We do not yet know his participation level. He has been limited in his last two appearances. Bowers is seemingly on track to play in Week 3 against the Saints. Treat him as an elite TE1 if he takes the field on Sunday.
Nabers speaking to the media is likely also good news for his availability on Sunday. The 23-year-old wideout is practicing, so he’s likely to be good to go and has a chance at avoiding a questionable tag on Friday altogether.
Per McLane, Barkley is suited up and present at Thursday’s practice. This puts him on track to face the Bears on Monday Night Football. Barkley underwent an MRI earlier this week. Apparently, the results were good. The Eagles’ No. 1 running back should be good to go, although he may end up logging a limited session to begin the week, as a precaution.
Journalists have videos of him working out on the side, so this doesn’t necessarily close the door on Bigsby playing on Monday Night, but it’s yet another Waiver Wire Week 3 rug pull possibility. With Saquon Barkley actually practicing, it’s possible Bigsby has zero standalone value this week against the Bears.
Pollard could be in line for a boost if he plays and Tyjae Spears sits, as the Titans haven’t really shown much interest in using their other running backs so far. Nicholas Singleton played just six snaps last week. Pollard missed practice Wednesday but seems to be in line to play after today’s session.
It puts him in a tenuous spot to play in Week 3’s game against the Giants. Spears will likely need some sort of practice participation on Friday to have a real shot at suiting up after missing each of the first two sessions of the week with this ankle injury.
It sounds like Smith may end up being listed as a limited participant. We will learn more when the injury report comes out later today. Hopefully, this is just veteran rest as the Eagles gear up for a Week 3 Monday Night Football game against the Bears. Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks took a hard fall in Week 2 and missed a few plays. He later told reporters that he “will be good.” If Wicks is indeed good and Smith is not, Wicks would operate as the receiving corps’ top option.
Jones, 31, injured his knee in Week 2 against the Bears and sat out yesterday’s practice. The fact that he is back today puts him on track to play. He will likely be listed as a limited participant, but a full session would be unsurprising. Jones is backed up by rookie RB Demond Claiborne, who would likely handle lead back duties if Jones were to miss time, and receiving specialist RB DeeJay Dallas.
Etienne suffered a high-ankle sprain in the final preseason game. He may return as the nominal No. 2 back behind Chuba Hubbard after Jonathon Brooks was injured in Week 2, giving him non-zero deep-league value.
On Monday, Legette told reporters that he was scheduled to undergo an MRI. He practiced fully on Wednesday, so everything seemed to be all good. Evidently, he was not feeling well enough to practice today, though. Legette mostly serves as a distraction for safeties, though he did catch a 55-yard touchdown in Week 2.
Thomas left the Giants’ Week 2 game against the Rams with a groin injury. He dealt with an ankle injury in practice last week. It is possible that fill-in starter, QB Jameis Winston, will be without his top pass protector in Week 3 against the Titans. Thomas was limited yesterday. It appears as though he will be a DNP today.
Coker is not wearing a uniform today, so we expect him to be a non-participant on the official injury report, which should come out in less than 90 minutes. We will provide an update if he ends up being listed as limited, or somehow inexplicably full. Coker played through the ankle injury last week, posting an 8/66 receiving line, so we like his odds of suiting up and playing effectively this week. This could just be a rest day. He was limited yesterday. Stay tuned.
Neither was Keon Coleman. Moore grabbed a limited listing on Wednesday while wearing a non-contact jersey in practice; a downgrade would be troubling for his chances of playing in Week 3. Coleman (ankle) has now missed the first two days of the week and would need a comeback on Friday to get on the questionable line.
Raridon worked off to the side yesterday and ended up being listed as a limited participant. He is not seen with the team again today, so either a light, limited session or a total absence is possible. Either way, Raridon remains firmly in the questionable column, though a second limited session would theoretically put him on track to play in Week 3 against the Jaguars.
Oliver now has a chance to face the Chargers in Week 3, though nothing is certain. The Bills’ star interior defender injured his hip during pre-game warmups last week and was unable to play. The Chargers’ banged-up offensive line has underperformed thus far. This is a situation worth monitoring.
It sounds like he’s still dealing with back flareups from time-to-time. Overall, it’s an encouraging sign for his availability in Week 3 that he spoke to the media, but Porter admitted that he did not know if he’d be ready to go against the Bengals. He remains questionable heading into Friday’s practice report even after doing everything today.
Penn Live’s Nick Farabaugh did note that Dowdle has shed his boot. He injured his toe in Week 2’s loss to the Pats but pushed through the issue in the second half. He was spotted in a boot on Wednesday. It looks like Dowdle will miss Week 3, but shedding the boot this quickly is a good sign that he isn’t dealing with a long-term issue. Jaylen Warren would vault into the RB2 ranks if Dowdle is ruled out before kickoff.
He added that the matter has been turned over to the Hobart/Lawrence police department, which is now in charge of determining whether or not the video will be released. Jacobs or the victim can then appeal that decision. The NFL has been adamant about getting the video before determining Jacobs’ pending suspension, and this increased the odds of that happening. Still, Jacobs could try to prevent that through the appeal process. Jacobs is believed to be facing a 4-6 game suspension, but the NFL can increase the length because of aggravating circumstances. This legal matter is inching toward a resolution, but a clash over the video would likely delay things even further.
Beat reporters observed Flowers working out on his own before practice, but the Ravens’ No. 1 wide receiver headed back inside the building before his teammates took the field. ESPN’s Jamison Hensley wrote, “it’s looking like Baltimore will be without Flowers for a second consecutive game.” The team downplayed Flowers’ Week 1 hamstring aggravation, but he is currently on the wrong side of questionable. The Ravens depart for Brazil this evening and arrive on Friday morning. If Flowers travels, he may have a chance to play, though he will carry re-injury risk.
