  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Nine second-half catches in loss

    Nabers caught nine of 11 targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Commanders.

    Nabers didn't catch his only first-half target as Daniel Jones had zero passing yards at halftime. The rookie receiver came alive in the second half, as his team-high reception and yardage totals included a two-yard catch on which Nabers managed to stretch the ball out and just barely convert on fourth-and-2 in the third quarter. Nabers has totaled at least 11 targets in five of his first seven NFL games, and he'll likely stay busy when the Giants travel to Munich, Germany to face the Panthers in Week 10.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Returns to Sunday's game

    Lamb (shoulder) returned to Sunday's 27-21 loss in Atlanta.

    Lamb seemed to be playing through the pain in the second half before making a brief exit in the fourth quarter due to a shoulder injury. Having said that, he tallied a two-point conversion on a connection with QB Dak Prescott on the Cowboys' last score and finished Week 9 with eight catches (on 12 targets) for 47 yards and two carries for 15 yards.

  • Simi Fehoko WR | ARI

    Chargers' Simi Fehoko: Exits with elbow injury

    Fehoko is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Browns due to an elbow injury, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Fehoko failed to bring in his only target prior to exiting the game. The severity of his elbow injury is unknown at this time.

  • Giants' Ihmir Smith-Marsette: Evaluated for potential concussion

    Smith-Marsette is questionable to return and is being evaluated for a potential concussion, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Smith-Marsette returned one kick for 21 yards and two punts for 12 yards before exiting the game. He will need to clear concussion protocol in order to return.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Exits game with shoulder issue

    Lamb exited Sunday's game against the Falcons with a shoulder injury, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Prior to that, Lamb had caught eight of his 12 targets for 47 yards and carried twice for 15 yards. In his absence, QB Cooper Rush -- who is in for Dak Prescott (hamstring) - has WRs Jalen Tolbert, Jalen Brooks, KaVontae Turpin and Ryan Flournoy to throw to.

  • Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Returns versus Carolina

    Wilson (shoulder) returned to Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Wilson exited during the second quarter with a shoulder injury, but he returned at some point in the second half and caught at least one pass in the fourth quarter. The veteran should serve as one of the Saints' primary wideouts alongside Mason Tipton for the remainder of the game.

  • Darius Slayton WR | NYG

    Giants' Darius Slayton: Concussion check ordered up

    Slayton got checked for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Prior to exiting late in the fourth quarter, Slayton had gathered in all three targets for 49 yards and taken one carry for 11 yards. If he's diagnosed with a concussion, he'll be subject to league protocol before he can suit up again.

  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Out of hospital

    Olave has been discharged from a Charlotte, N.C. hospital and will return to New Orleans with his teammates following Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    Olave needed a cart to get off the field following a big hit in the middle of the first quarter. Diagnosed with a concussion not long after, he'll be subject to the protocol for head injuries in order to suit up again. The Saints play next Sunday versus the Falcons.

  • Rams' Jordan Whittington: Sitting out again Sunday

    Whittington (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game at Seattle, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Whittington thus is missing a second straight contest due to a shoulder injury, but he was able to practice in a limited capacity in all three Week 9 practices, indicating he's drawing closer to a return to action. With Whittington sidelined, Tutu Atwell, Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson and Xavier Smith will be the tertiary wide receivers behind the top duo of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.

  • Puka Nacua WR | LAR

    Rams' Puka Nacua: Suiting up in Week 9

    Nacua (knee) is listed as active Sunday at Seattle, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    In the wake of banging his right knee into the ground at Thursday's practice, Nacua didn't practice Friday and thus entered the weekend listed as questionable for Week 9 action. The Rams never seemed too worried about his availability, though, and his status now has been confirmed. Nacua will be facing a Seahawks defense that has conceded the ninth-most receiving touchdowns (eight) to opposing wideouts in eight contests this season.
