  • Zay Jones WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Zay Jones: Green light for Week 9

    Jones (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Cowboys.

    Jones has been working through a lingering knee issue since early October. His practice reps were limited Thursday and Friday, but he's avoided an injury tag for Week 9 after practicing without restrictions Saturday. Jones recorded seven catches (on 10 targets) for 146 yards over the two games prior to the Cardinals' Week 8 bye. Jacoby Brissett was the starter in those two games, and the veteran quarterback will draw the start against Dallas while Kyler Murray -- who is listed as questionable for Week 9 due to a foot sprain -- will serve as the backup if active.

  • James Proche WR | TEN

    Titans' James Proche: Back with active roster

    The Titans elevated Proche to their active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site report.

    Proche's elevation provides Tennessee with much-needed depth at wide receiver, as Calvin Ridley (hamstring) and Bryce Oliver (knee) are both dealing with injuries ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Chargers. Proche, an SMU product, is likely to contribute both offensively and on special teams Sunday.

  • Colts' Laquon Treadwell: Elevated Saturday

    The Colts elevated Treadwell to their active roster Saturday.

    The Ole Miss product is now in line to join the Colts' active roster for the second time in the last three weeks. In the Week 7 matchup against the Chargers, Treadwell played 12 special-teams snaps and didn't record an offensive stat. Now back with the active roster, he's likely to play a similar role in the Week 9 matchup against the Steelers.

  • Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Will have competition Week 9

    Hutchinson could see a reduction in targets Week 9 against Denver, as both Nico Collins and Christian Kirk shed their injury designations Friday.

    Hutchinson experienced an uptick in targets the last two weeks when both Collins and Kirk were impacted by injuries, but their returns should suppress Hutchinson's production. He typically sees a high snap volume whether or not the team is dealing with injuries to other receivers, so Hutchinson will be on the field often and still in a position to make some kind of impact.

  • Texans' Christian Kirk: Ready to return Week 9

    Kirk (hamstring) logged a full practice Friday and carries no injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Both Kirk and Nico Collins (concussion) were full participants Friday and enter Week 9 with no designation. Kirk missed the last two games and four overall this season due to a balky hamstring. That's limited him to 10 catches, 109 yards and zero touchdowns over three games.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Carries no designation Week 9

    Collins (concussion) was a

    Collins, who cleared the concussion protocol Thursday, logged a pair of full practices heading into the weekend. The injury forced him to miss last week's win over San Francisco, but Collins remains the team's leader in targets (46), catches (26) and yards (339). He also has three touchdowns, tying him with fellow wideout Xavier Hutchinson.

  • Jaguars' Austin Trammell: Signed to active roster

    The Jaguars signed Trammell to the active roster from the practice squad Friday.

    Trammell has spent all season with the Jacksonville practice squad and was elevated once, though he has yet to see game action. He'll likely serve primarily as a special-teamer while taking the roster spot of Travis Hunter (knee).

  • Tim Patrick WR | NYJ

    Jaguars' Tim Patrick: Ruled out for Week 9

    Patrick (groin) won't play Sunday against Las Vegas.

    Patrick injured his groin against the Rams in Week 7. The Jaguars were on bye last week, but that didn't provide enough time for Patrick to fully recover, though he did manage to log a trio of limited practices this week. Austin Trammell was signed to the active roster off Jacksonville's practice squad Friday and could get some offensive snaps in Patrick's absence.

  • Texans' Braxton Berrios: Green light for Week 9

    Berrios (chest) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Berrios has been given the all-clear to play Week 9 after logging a full practice Friday. He played a meaningful role on offense during the Texans' Week 8 win over the 49ers and finished with five catches on as many targets for 38 yards. However, Berrios will likely be limited to a role on special teams for Week 9 due to the returns of Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring).

  • Travis Hunter CB | JAC

    Jaguars' Travis Hunter: Officially placed on IR

    The Jaguars placed Hunter (knee) on injured reserve Friday.

    After Hunter was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday with a knee injury, head coach Liam Coen told Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union on Friday that it was non-contact in nature and would result in a stint on IR, per Harvey. Adam Schefter of ESPN then reported later Friday that initial tests on Hunter's knee revealed that his ACL was intact, but the rookie No. 1 overall pick will be evaluated further to determine the extent of the damage, which won't be known until next week. For the time being, Hunter will miss at least the next four games following this transaction, and the Jaguars will proceed with Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Dyami Brown and Tim Patrick (groin) at wide receiver moving forward.
