Williams (knee) was a DNP on the team's estimated practice report Monday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Williams suffered the injury during Sunday's game with the Titans, and he was unable to return. His inability to participate, even if just on an estimated practice report, does not bode well for his status for Thursday's game with the Bears.

Cool rushed four times for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Steelers. He was not targeted in the passing game.

Cook saw extra time with the game being a laugher, as all four of the Bills' top rushers averaged at least seven yards per carry. And that's outside of Josh Allen's 424 passing yards. Both Cook and Zack Moss are well behind Devin Singletary in the pecking order, though Cook -- a second-round rookie -- showed some real burst on his TD run Sunday, so it'll be interesting to see how the carries shake out in the coming weeks when Singletary needs a breather.

Jones (coach's decision) was ruled inactive ahead of Monday's game against the Raiders.

Jones will be a healthy scratch for the second game in a row after recovering from an illness ahead of last week's win over Tampa Bay. As a result, 25-year-old will have to wait until at least Week 6 to make his 2022 debut.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said that Homer (ribs) should return quickly after he becomes eligible to return from IR following Week 7, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Homer was placed on IR following Week 3, so his earliest chance to return will come during the lead-up to Seattle's game against the Giants on Oct. 30. The 24-year-old rushed four times for 18 yards and caught four passes for 33 yards while playing 40 offensive snaps over the first three games of the season. Homer could stand to see increased playing time once he returns, however, as running back Rashaad Penny will miss the rest of the season with a broken left fibula.

Mattison had nine carries for 19 yards and three receptions for 21 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over Chicago.

Mattison played on a season-high 46 percent of the offensive snaps (34 of 79) and got a decent workload even with Dalvin Cook having a strong game (18 carries for 94 yards and two touchdowns). However, it's hard to count on a workload even this large for Mattison unless Cook gets hurt.

Jones was claimed off waivers from the Saints on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Jones hit the waiver wire Saturday, and with Rashaad Penny suffering a season-ending ankle injury against the Saints in Week 5, the former will now provide depth at running back for the Seahawks. Jones appeared in two games for the Saints this season, recording two carries for eight yards, while also hauling in each of his two targets for 12 yards.

Gaskin had four carries for nine yards and caught three of five targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Jets.

Gaskin saw opportunities behind Raheem Mostert after Chase Edmonds presumably was benched due to continued drops, effectively making him Miami's third-down back. It remains to be seen whether Edmonds will be back in the coaching staff's good graces for Week 6's matchup against the Vikings.

Penny will undergo season-ending surgery on his fractured fibula Tuesday and faces a four-month recovery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Penny suffered the injury during the team's Week 5 loss to the Saints and will miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign. However, per Rapoport, an MRI on Monday revealed that his ankle was relatively clean, so he should make a full recovery. Penny, who signed a one-year deal to return to Seattle this offseason, will be a free agent in March and, barring his return to health, could be one of the more sought-after players during the 2023 offseason. In the meantime, Kenneth Walker, a rookie second-round pick, is expected to take over as Seattle's primary running back while DeeJay Dallas handles his usual third-down role.

Davis-Price (ankle) was spotted taking part in a workout prior to Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers and could be ready to return to practice Week 6, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

The rookie third-round pick out of LSU hasn't suited up since Week 2 due to a high-ankle sprain, but the 49ers' decision not to move him to injured reserve always left open the possibility that he would miss fewer than four games on account of the injury. Davis-Price still looks like he has a chance to limit his absence to three games and play this coming Sunday in Atlanta, but he'll almost certainly have to return to full practice participation by Friday for that to become a reality. With Elijah Mitchell (knee) likely out until November, Jeff Wilson has a temporary stranglehold on the No. 1 role out of the backfield, but the slotting behind him on the depth chart remains unsettled. Tevin Coleman handled the No. 2 role behind Wilson against Carolina in Week 5 and scored two touchdowns, but he managed just 23 yards on eight carries (2.9 average).

White rushed five times for 14 yards and brought in three of four targets for 28 yards in the Buccaneers' 21-15 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also returned one kickoff for 18 yards.

White was incorporated into the offense to a solid degree, logging 31 snaps from scrimmage overall. The rookie third-round pick has particularly enjoyed a strong role in the passing game over the last pair of contests, posting an 8-78-0 line on nine targets in that span. White will remain behind Leonard Fournette for the time being, but he'll potentially have a chance for a similar workload in a Week 6 road matchup against a Steelers team the Buccaneers shouldn't have too much trouble eventually separating from.
