  • Reggie Virgil WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Reggie Virgil: Inactive for Week 2

    Virgil (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    The rookie fifth-rounder has been a healthy scratch for each of the Cardinals' first two games of the regular season, and the next chance for him to make his NFL debut is Week 3 against the 49ers on Sept. 27. The Cardinals will go with six active wide receivers Sunday, with the position group led by Michael Wilson, Marvin Harrison and Kendrick Bourne.

  • Luke McCaffrey WR | WAS

    Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Won't play against Dallas

    McCaffrey (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    McCaffrey will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive week, with the Commanders going with six wide receivers on the active game-day roster, led by Terry McLaurin, Stefon Diggs and Antonio Williams. McCaffrey's next chance to play is Week 3 against the Seahawks on Sept. 27, though he doesn't appear to have a clear path to playing time.

  • CJ Williams WR | JAC

    Jaguars' CJ Williams: Healthy scratch for Week 2

    Williams (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Williams did not record any offensive stats over his 10 snaps in the Jaguars' Week 1 win over the Browns. The wide receiver and reserve returner will now take a back seat as head coach Liam Coen finds other ways to fill Williams' minimal snaps.

  • Ladd McConkey WR | LAC

    Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Active for Week 2

    McConkey (ribs) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.

    Separate reports leading up to the game indicated that McConkey intended to play, and he will indeed suit up for Week 2. McConkey is apparently playing through a cracked rib and will sport a flak jacket, so while he will be out there, it's unclear if he will fill his usual role.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Won't return Sunday

    Reed has been ruled out of Sunday's game at the Jets due to a neck injury.

    Reed was placed on a backboard and carted off the field after the Packers' second offensive snap, and a neck injury was to blame for his early exit. With Reed sidelined for the rest of Week 2, Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Skyy Moore, Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant will handle WR reps for the Packers.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Gets carted off field

    Reed (undisclosed) was carted off the field during Sunday's game at the Jets, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    On the Packers' second offensive snap, Reed remained on the turf and was moved to a backboard before being placed on the cart to head to the locker room. The nature of his injury isn't known, but if he's unable to return, the Packers will be down to Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Skyy Moore, Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant at wide receiver in Week 2.

  • Puka Nacua WR | LAR

    Rams' Puka Nacua: May be trending toward sitting Week 2

    Nacua (hip), who is officially listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Giants, "is trending the wrong way" in advance of the Week 2 contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    After being added to the Rams' injury report Friday, Nacua proceeded to miss the team's final two practices of the week due to a sore hip. Though the Rams are likely to treat Nacua as a gameday decision with a call on his status perhaps going all the way down to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, the wideout currently seems to be trending toward sitting out the Week 2 matchup. With that in mind, fantasy managers planning on including Nacua in lineups this week will want to have an alternative option available to pivot to Monday in the event he sits out.

  • Ladd McConkey WR | LAC

    Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Trending toward playing Week 2

    McConkey (ribs), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, is "trending in the right direction" ahead of the 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Official word on McConkey's status will arrive when the Chargers post their inactive list 90 minutes prior to kickoff, but unless he experiences a setback with his cracked rib while warming up Sunday, the third-year wideout is on track to suit up. Schefter relayed earlier Sunday that McConkey will wear a flak jacket to protect his injured rib if he does wind up playing.

  • Elijah Moore WR | PHI

    Eagles' Elijah Moore: Remains inactive for Week 2

    Moore (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    The veteran wideout will serve as a healthy scratch for the second time in as many games to open the season. Moore appears destined to retain the same status moving forward unless multiple injuries strike at wide receiver for the Eagles.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Making season debut Sunday

    McMillan (knee) is listed as active Sunday against the Browns, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    McMillan finally is putting the knee injury that has bothered him since early August behind him, but per a report from Adam Schefter of ESPN on Sunday morning, the third-year pro isn't expected to handle his normal workload. If McMillan is indeed operating on a snap count, he could yield more of the third-wide-receiver duties to rookie third-rounder Ted Hurst, which effectively could make McMillan the fourth option at the position behind Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin and Hurst. In 17 regular-season contests in his career, McMillan has combined for a 49-639-8 line on 73 targets.
