Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said after Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London that Wilson sustained a hip injury during the contest, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. Wilson finished the day with three catches for 13 yards on eight targets.

Wilson didn't miss extensive time at any point in the contest, though Connor Hughes of SNY.tv noted that the receiver looked to be banged up following an incomplete pass on second down on the Jets' penultimate possession. Wilson stayed on the sideline for a third-and-10 play, but he was back on the field for the team's final drive of the day. Per Al Iannazzone of Newsday, Wilson said after the game that he underwent an X-ray, and he could undergo an MRI once the Jets return stateside to begin prep for a Week 7 matchup with the Panthers. Even if Wilson's hip issue doesn't limit him in practice during the upcoming week, Sunday's loss to Denver demonstrated that the wideout's weekly fantasy outlook can be volatile while he's tethered to a poor Jets passing attack. Quarterback Justin Fields dropped back just 26 times Week 6, taking nine sacks and completing only nine of 17 passes for 45 yards.

There was no "private meeting" between Brown, Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley as initially reported elsewhere, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday. Instead, Brown saw Hurts and Barkley talking in the parking lot and walked over to join them.

This comes with the territory for a big market team that's the defending Super Bowl champs, but the drama surrounding the Eagles' key offensive players has been exhausting. However, it's prudent to remember how the Eagles' offense was also off-kilter at this point in the season last year, too.

Weaver (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Colts, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports.

Weaver served as the Cardinals' No. 4 wideout in Week 4 against the Seahawks, before ultimately being inactive in Week 5 against the Titans. The 24-year-old is once again inactive for Sunday's matchup.

Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Wilson was able to fade an injury designation after logging a full practice Friday. However, despite Tyreek Hill (knee) being out for the rest of the season, Wilson will observe Sunday's game in street clothes while Dee Eskridge and Tahj Washington serve as the Dolphins' depth options at wide receiver. Wilson has yet to play a regular-season game in 2025, and his next opportunity to do so is Week 7 against the Browns on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Atwell (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game at Baltimore, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Atwell pulled his hamstring during practice Thursday and was added to the injury report the same day. He was able to turn in a limited session Friday, but that apparently isn't enough for him to suit up in Week 6. Jordan Whittington could benefit from a few additional targets against the Ravens, but the Rams' passing offense will continue to be highly concentrated between Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Mitchell is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.

With Alec Pierce back from a concussion, Mitchell is the odd man out in the Colts' Week 6 wideout corps. Also in uniform at the position Sunday are Michael Pittman, Josh Downs, Ashton Dulin and Anthony Gould.

Jones (knee) is listed as active Sunday in Indianapolis, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

After being limited in practice for all of Week 6 prep due to a knee injury, Jones was listed as questionable for Sunday's game. Now that his availability has been confirmed, he'll continue to serve as the Cardinals' No. 3 WR behind Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson, which so far has amounted to a modest 5-37-0 line on seven targets in four contests for Jones this season.

Johnston (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Johnston took a questionable tag into the weekend after turning in limited practices Wednesday through Friday and was viewed as a game-time decision leading up to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but the Chargers have ultimately chosen to hold out the ascending third-year wideout for the first time this season. In Johnston's absence, more target volume could be available for starting wideouts Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen, while rookie Tre' Harris and KeAndre Lambert-Smith could benefit from more playing time in three-receiver formations. Given that he seemed to close to playing Sunday before being made inactive, Johnston should have decent odds of returning to action Week 7 versus the Colts.

Flowers (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Rams.

After being deemed limited in all three of the Ravens' practices this week, Flowers drew a 'questionable' designation for Week 6. With his active status versus Los Angeles confirmed, for the second week in a row Flowers will be catching passes from QB Cooper Rush, with Lamar Jackson (hamstring) still sidelined. While the wideout is available Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network suggests that Flowers isn't likely to be 100 percent and is a candidate to play less than his typical allotment of snaps in a wideout corps that also includes Rashod Bateman, DeAndre Hopkins and Tylan Wallace. In last Sunday's 44-10 loss to the Texans, Flowers was Baltimore's top pass catcher, recording five receptions on as many targets for 72 yards, while logging an 84 percent snap share.

McLaurin (quadriceps) will remain out for Monday's game against the Bears but has avoided any setbacks in his recovery thus far and has a chance at returning to action Week 7 versus the Cowboys, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Since exiting the Commanders' Week 3 win over the Raiders due to the quad injury, McLaurin hasn't practiced in any fashion and is set to miss a third straight game Monday, though he's reportedly moved through his rehab program as expected thus far. While the Commanders remain hopeful that McLaurin will be ready to go for a divisional matchup in Week 7, he'll still likely need to take reps in at least one or two practices from next Wednesday through Friday in order to gain clearance to play. With McLaurin in street clothes for another game and with Noah Brown (groin) also sidelined Week 6, Deebo Samuel is expected to serve as the Commanders' top passing-game target for another game, assuming he's able to play through the heel injury that has resulted in him taking a questionable tag into Monday.
