  • Luke Musgrave – Back to back “limited” session to open the week of practice for Luke Musgrave as he deals with a Hamstring issue. He logged a “full” session on Friday and doesn’t carry an injury designation this week.
  • Tucker Kraft – A shoulder issue made Tucker Kraft a “limited” participant in Wednesday’s practice but after closing out the week as “full” – he’s expected to play.

HOU

  • Tank Dell – A chest injury cost Tank Dell the whole week of practice and will cost him this game as well. He’s “OUT” against Jacksonville.
  • Nico Collins – Collins popped up on the injury report Thursday with an undisclosed issue. After making it back to “full” on friday, its widely expected that he’ll play in Week 4.

IND

JAX

  • Evan Engram – It will be a third-straight absence for Evan Engram this week. He has been ruled “OUT” due to an ongoing hamstring injury.
  • Gabe Davis – A shoulder issue forced Gabe Davis into the “limited” category for the duration of the week. He’s carrying a “questionable” tag but it sounds like he’s closer to a game time decision.

KC

LAC

  • Justin Herbert – Herbert played through an ankle injury last week that limited his practices all of this week. Despite his “questionable” designation, it’s expected that Herbert will be available this week.
  • Joshua Palmer – An elbow and a calf caused Joshua Palmer to log a “limited” session Wednesday. After back-to-back “full” practices to close the week, Palmer does not have an injury designation this week.

LAR

LAS

  • Davante Adams – Adams was another late addition to the injury report after his hamstring caused him to go down as “limited” on Thursday. He moved to DNP friday and has been ruled “OUT” for this week’s game.
  • Michael Mayer – Mayer logged back to back DNP’s on Thursday and Friday with what is listed as a personal issue. He is OUT this week.

MIA

  • Tyreek Hill – Wednesday’s DNP was just a veteran rest day for Hill. He’s good to go against Tennessee.
  • Skylar Thompson – Thompson has been dealing with a ribs injury after getting abused in Week 3. He’s technically listed as “questionable” but the team has decided to go with Tyler Huntley at quarterback this week.
  • Raheem Mostert – Mostert has been working his way back from a chest injury for a few games and logged limited practices all week. He’s carrying a “questionable” designation but is telling reporters that he’s “trying to play” in Week 4.

  • Hunter Henry – Henry opened the week of practice with back to back “limited” sessions due to an ankle injury. He was back to being a full participant on Friday and is good to go against San Francisco.

NYG

NYJ

NO

  • Alvin Kamara – Kamara opened the week of practice with a DNP due to Hip and Ribs issues. He got back to limited on both Thursday and Friday and is listed as “Questionable” ahead of their game against the Falcons.
  • Chris Olave – Its always worrisome when a player gets added to the injury report mid-week, as Chris Olave did this Friday with a Hamstring issue. He did travel with the team to Atlanta so there is some hope he plays but I’d list him as a true “Game Time Decision.”
  • AT Perry – If the Saints do need to tap into their reserve wide receivers, they’ll have to do so without AT Perry. He is unavailable this week with a hamstring injury.
  • Cedrick Wilson – Another late DNP in the week was Cedrick Wilson missing Friday’s practice with an ankle injury. He is also a GTD for a Saints receivers room that is suddenly very thin.

PHI

  • DeVonta Smith – Smith is in the concussion protocol after a vicious hit last week. He did not log a practice and, in turn, is unavailable for this week’s game.
  • AJ Brown – There was a glimmer of hope for AJ Brown, who’s working his way back from a hamstring injury, to play this week after a “limited” session on Friday. It wasn’t in the cards for him this week as he’s already be ruled “OUT.”

PIT

  • Russell Wilson – Wilson continues to nurse a calf injury that limited his practices this week. His availability is listed as “questionable” but the Steelers will stick with Justin Fields as their starter either way.
  • Najee Harris – A DNP on Wednesday was really just a rest day for Najee. He’s good to go against the Colts.
  • Jalen Warren – A week of DNPs logged for Jalen Warren due to a knee issue have him ruled “OUT” for Week 4.
  • Cordarrelle Patterson – Arthur Smith is keeping his back fresh this week. Patterson’s DNP on Thursday was just a day or rest as he projects for some additional work this week.

SEA

  • Kenneth Walker – Walker has been working his way back from an oblique injury that has cost him the last two games. He progressed from “limited” to “full” over the course of the week and is good to go against the Lions.

SF

  • Deebo Samuel – Deebo Samuel is progressing a bit faster than anticipated and made it back to “limited” by Thursday’s practice. He’s listed as “questionable” and will test out his calf injury before the game against the Patriots.
  • George Kittle – Just a 1-week absence for George Kittle due to his hamstring. He made it back to “full” on Friday and is expected to play in Week 4.

TB

  • Mike Evans – Evans was given a light workload this week with a knee injury but doesn’t carry an injury designation ahead of their Week 4 matchup with the Eagles
  • Chris Godwin – Three-straight “limited” practices this week for Chris Godwin with a neck issue. All is well as he isn’t listed on the injury report ahead of this week’s game.
  • Jalen McMillan – McMillan popped up with an undisclosed injury during Friday’s practices. It looks to be too quick a turnaround for him as he’s listed as “doubtful” for this week.
  • Bucky Irving – Bucky Irving is navigating a hamstring issue that caused him to go LP/DNP/LP this week. He’s listed as “questionable” but has been telling reporters that he expects to play.
  • Rachaad White – White was a full participant at practice this week but was added to the report with an illness on Saturday. He’s carrying a “questionable” designation as of now.

TEN

  • DeAndre Hopkins – Wednesday’s DNP was just a veteran rest day for Hopkins. He’s good to go against Miami.

WAS

  • Austin Ekeler – Ekeler suffered a concussion near the end of their Monday Night Football game last week. After not making the team charter to Arizona, it was all but assured he’d miss this game and he is now officially “OUT.”
