  • Johnny Newton DT | WAS

    Commanders' Jer'Zhan Newton: Active for SNF

    Newton (ankle) is active for Sunday Night Football against the Seahawks.

    Newton is good to go after being limited at practice throughout the week with an ankle injury that he suffered in Week 8. The defensive lineman will operate as a top reserve option behind Daron Payne and Javon Kinlaw versus Seattle.

  • Jarran Reed DT | SEA

    Seahawks' Jarran Reed: Green light to play Week 9

    Reed (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

    Reed was managing a wrist injury during Week 9 prep and was given the questionable tag for Sunday night's game, but he has been cleared to play after going through pregame warmups. The veteran defensive end has 16 tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, through seven regular-season games.

  • Laremy Tunsil OT | WAS

    Commanders' Laremy Tunsil: Good to go for SNF

    Tunsil (hamstring) is active for Sunday night's contest against the Seahawks.

    Tunsil is all set to play after entering the weekend questionable with a hamstring injury that he suffered in Week 8. The 31-year-old will operate in his starting role at left tackle versus Seattle.

  • Jalen Milroe QB | SEA

    Seahawks' Jalen Milroe: Emergency QB vs. Washington

    Milroe (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Seahawks' emergency third quarterback against the Commanders on Sunday.

    As the emergency third QB, Milroe is restricted from playing Sunday unless both Sam Darnold and Drew Lock are removed from the game due to injury, illness or ejection. Milroe has appeared in three regular-season games and has logged three carries for four yards while not attempting a pass.

  • Caleb Williams QB | CHI

    Bears' Caleb Williams: Four total TDs in win

    Williams completed 20 of 34 passes for 280 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions, rushed five times for 53 yards and brought in two targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Williams' brimming stat line tells the tale of a wild afternoon at Paycor Stadium that featured seven lead changes. Williams had a hand in the decisive one, connecting with rookie tight end Colston Loveland for a 58-yard game-winning touchdown. That momentous play was preceded by 15- and five-yard scoring strikes to Olamide Zaccheaus and Loveland, respectively, as well as Williams' own two-yard TD grab from DJ Moore on a trick play to cap off Chicago's opening possession. The 2024 first overall pick snapped a two-game TD-pass drought with Sunday's performance, and he also hit the 280-yard mark for the second consecutive contest. Williams and the Bears have another favorable matchup on tap when the Giants pay a visit to Soldier Field for a Week 10 matchup next Sunday afternoon.

  • Chiefs' Jawaan Taylor: Questionable to return

    Taylor (ankle) is questionable to return to Kansas City's matchup versus the Bills.

    Taylor suffered the injury in the second half, leaving his status for the remainder of the game up in the air. Wanya Morris has taken over at right tackle in Taylor's absence.

  • Saints' Taliese Fuaga: Suffers ankle injury Week 9

    Fuaga sustained an ankle injury during the Saints' 34-10 loss to the Rams on Sunday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Fuaga had his ankle evaluated by medical staff on the sidelines before being carted to the locker room. He'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury, but he is in jeopardy of being sidelined for the Saints' Week 10 road tilt against the Panthers on Sunday, Nov. 9. Asim Richards took over at right tackle during Sunday's game and would be in line to start if Fuaga misses time.

  • Cooper Kupp WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Cooper Kupp: Inactive Sunday, as expected

    Kupp (heel/hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's contest at Washington.

    Kupp opened Week 9 prep as a full participant with a heel injury, but a hamstring issue arose Thursday that limited him and then kept him out of drills entirely Friday. A questionable designation for Kupp ensued, but Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday night that the veteran wide receiver was unlikely to suit up Sunday. Now that Kupp's lack of availability is confirmed, he'll join Jake Bobo (Achilles) and Dareke Young (quadriceps) in street clothes. No. 1 WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba dominates the attention of QB Sam Darnold, but rookie fifth-round pick Tory Horton figures to garner looks behind Smith-Njigba, and practice-squad elevations Cody White and Ricky White also will be on hand for snaps and targets.

  • Jared Goff QB | DET

    Lions' Jared Goff: Solid day in loss

    Goff completed 25 of 37 passes for 284 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    The Lions' offense wasn't as efficient as usual, but Goff still finished with a fantasy-friendly stat line while working around five sacks. The veteran signal-caller facilitated a pair of 97-yard efforts for Sam LaPorta and Amon-Ra St. Brown, and he connected with LaPorta and Jameson Williams for scoring tosses of 40 and 37 yards, respectively. Goff's yardage total was his second highest of the season, and he's now thrown multiple touchdown passes in four of the last five games heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders.

  • Dalton Schultz TE | HOU

    Texans' Dalton Schultz: Leads Houston in receiving yards

    Schultz caught six of eight targets for a team-high 77 yards in Sunday's 18-15 loss to the Broncos.

    The veteran tight end did most of his damage on a 47-yard reception from C.J. Stroud (concussion) in the first quarter to set up Houston's first of five field goals on the afternoon. Schultz wound up second on the team in receptions behind Nico Collins' seven, but the ceiling for the entire Texans passing attack was downgraded when Davis Mills replaced Stroud early in the second quarter. If Mills gets the start in Week 10 against the Jaguars, Schultz should still be a reliable possession option given his impressive 17-199-0 line on 21 targets over three games since Houston's bye.
