Latu played nine snaps on offense and 15 on special teams during Sunday's victory over the Chiefs but failed to record any stats. The 25-year-old could be elevated again for the team's week 3 matchup versus the Rams should Dallas Goedert (knee) remain sidelined.

Zaire Mitchell-Paden: Reverts to practice squad
Mitchell-Paden reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL transaction log .
Mitchell-Paden was active for the second consecutive week and has held a similar role in each of Baltimore's first two games, playing around 15 offensive snaps with a handful of special-teams snaps. He was targeted in Sunday's 41-17 win over the Browns but was unable to record a catch.

Colby Parkinson TE | LAR
Rams' Colby Parkinson: Progressing in recovery
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Monday that Parkinson is making good progress in his recovery from a sprained AC joint in his shoulder, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Parkinson's shoulder injury prevented him from playing against the Titans in Week 2. His practice participation over the next week will provide more clarity on his status heading into Sunday's game against the Eagles. Davis Allen and Terrance Ferguson will continue to see increased snaps at tight end behind Tyler Higbee for as long as Parkinson is sidelined.

Josiah Deguara TE | ARI
Josiah Deguara: Back to practice squad
Deguara reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL transaction log.
Deguara was active for the first time in 2025 for Arizona's Week 2 matchup against the Panthers. He logged 14 snaps and also recorded one tackle.

John Bates TE | WAS
Commanders' John Bates: Unlikely to play Week 3
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Monday that Bates (groin) is a "long shot" to play Sunday versus Las Vegas, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Bates was injured in the second quarter in Thursday's loss to the Packers. Though he will have had extended time to recover, it doesn't appear the veteran tight end will be able to suit up Sunday. Ben Sinnott and Colson Yankoff could both see more snaps than usual against the Raiders, though Zach Ertz -- who logged 89 percent of Washington's defensive snaps Week 2 -- will likely continue to carry a heavy workload as the team's top tight end.

Darren Waller TE | MIA
Dolphins' Darren Waller: Limited on practice estimate
Waller (hip) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Waller, who has been out for the first two games of the season, had been deemed a non-participant in all of the Dolphins' practices leading up to Monday's estimate. Either way, the tight end's status for Thursday night's game against the Bills remains uncertain, with added context in that regard set to arrive via his participation level in Tuesday's session.

Devin Culp TE | TB
Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Won't suit up vs. Houston
Culp (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Texans, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
The 2024 seventh-rounder managed to make the Bucs' 53-man roster at the end of training camp but has been a healthy scratch for the first two games of the regular season. It appears Culp is unlikely to be active for gameday unless Cade Otton, Payne Durham or Ko Kieft were to miss time due to injury or illness.
