The Vikings fear that Oliver sustained a torn biceps in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Oliver will undergo an MRI on Monday as the Vikings look to determine the nature and severity of his injury, but if a torn biceps is confirmed, he'll be out indefinitely and could be a candidate for injured reserve. The 29-year-old tight end has been limited to just three receptions for 46 yards on five targets through the Vikings' first three games, but he fills a vital role as a pass and run blocker and has taken the field for 56.9 percent of the team's offensive snaps this season.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that he won't have an update on Hall's (thigh) status until Wednesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Hall departed Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions in the fourth quarter due to a thigh injury, finishing the contest with 13 carries for 32 yards and three catches for 23 yards. The running back will presumably undergo imaging Monday or Tuesday as the Jets look to determine the severity of his injury, and it's possible that the results of his medical tests could be reported before Glenn addresses the media Wednesday, when the team holds its first practice of Week 4. Until more details about his injury are known, Hall should be viewed as questionable for next Sunday's game in Chicago, with Braelon Allen being the next man up in the backfield if Hall can't play.

Bagent (concussion) is expected to remain the Bears' backup quarterback for Monday's game against the Eagles, while Case Keenum starts in place of the injured Caleb Williams (hamstring), Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The Bears' No. 2 quarterback for the first two games of the season, Bagent was initially lined up to start against the Eagles after Williams sustained a Grade 2 hamstring strain in the Week 2 loss to the Vikings. However, after emerging from the Vikings game with a concussion, Bagent missed the first two practices of Week 3, resulting in Keenum taking all the reps with the first-team offense. Bagent returned to practice Saturday as a limited participant and had his questionable designation removed Sunday upon clearing the five-step concussion protocol, but because of his lack of prep time this week, the Bears will keep him in the backup role. Keenum will thus pick up his first start since the 2023 season, but barring a strong performance against a stout Eagles defense, the Bears would likely go with Bagent as their starter Week 4 versus the Jets in the likely event that Williams remains out.

The Giants fear that Burns sustained a torn ACL in his right knee during Sunday's 12-7 win over the Titans, Jeff Howe and Jonathan Jones of The Athletic report.

New York will hope that an MRI on Monday yields better news for Burns, but the team is bracing for the possibility of the star pass rusher missing the rest of the season. Burns had been held without a sack through the Giants' first three games, but he led the NFC with 16.5 during the 2025 campaign. If Burns ends up missing any length of time, Kayvon Thibodeaux would likely move into a full-time role on the edge opposite Abdul Carter.

Higbee caught eight of 11 targets for 62 yards and a touchdown during Sunday night's 30-26 loss to the Broncos.

Higbee went from having no targets in Week 2 to leading the team with eight catches while finishing second only to wide receiver Davante Adams (13) in targets one week later. The tight end reeled in his first touchdown of the year to cap off the team's second possession of the game, connecting with quarterback Matthew Stafford for a five-yard score. Higbee may have seen the added opportunities as a result of fellow tight end Terrance Ferguson sustaining an ankle injury in the first quarter, but Ferguson was able to return to action. Higbee will have a chance to prove that his performance wasn't an anomaly when the team hosts Philadelphia in Week 4.

Sutton caught three of seven targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Rams.

Sutton led the team in receiving yards Sunday night while tying for the team lead in targets with RJ Harvey and Jaylen Waddle. This was a step in the right direction after Sutton mustered just 36 receiving yards over the previous two games combined. Between the offseason acquisition of Waddle and the change in play callers from Sean Payton to Davis Webb, Sutton has taken a step back early in the 2026 season after exceeding 1,000 receiving yards in each of the previous two regular seasons and catching 15 touchdown passes over that span. Sutton is still searching for his first TD of the campaign heading into a Week 4 road game against the 49ers.

Dobbins rushed 17 times for 49 yards while catching one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Rams.

Dobbins is up to 35 rushing attempts through three weeks, while no other Denver running back has exceeded 10. Jonah Coleman (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, while RJ Harvey has more targets (11) than carries (five). Dobbins has yet to score on the ground after recording four rushing touchdowns last season, and he has been a non-factor in the passing game, as Sunday's targets were Dobbins' first two of the season. On the bright side, Dobbins has recovered from previous hip and hamstring concerns and is poised to keep leading Denver's ground game in Week 4 at San Francisco.

Harvey (hamstring) rushed twice for six yards while catching six of seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Rams.

Harvey didn't see much involvement on the ground but tied for the team lead in targets in his return from a one-game absence due to a hamstring injury. He was evaluated for a concussion in the second half and cleared to return, though Harvey had just one touch after that point. J.K. Dobbins is likely to keep working as Denver's primary rushing option in Week 4 against the 49ers, especially with rookie fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman (ankle) on IR, while Harvey remains the preferred running back in passing situations.

Mumpfield caught four of eight targets for 93 yards and a touchdown during Sunday night's 30-26 loss to Denver.

Mumpfield operated in a more prominent role at wide receiver behind Davante Adams once again in Week 3 while Puka Nacua (hip) remained sidelined for a second game in a row. The rookie finished third on the team in targets behind Adams (13) and tight end Tyler Higbee (11). Mumpfield's biggest moment of the game came in the fourth quarter when he connected with quarterback Matthew Stafford for a 48-yard score with 3:46 remaining in regulation. The wide receiver has now opened his NFL career by catching five of 11 targets for 105 yards and a touchdown over three regular-season contests.

Little hit all five of his extra-point attempts but missed a 70-yard field-goal try in Sunday's 35-6 win over the Patriots.

The Jaguars lined up for what would have been a record-setting field goal just before halftime, but Little missed it wide right. The kicker has only failed to connect on two attempts this season, a 54-yard field-goal try and this 70-yard attempt. The Jaguars have been offering him plenty of scoring opportunities through three games, and it's clear that the team doesn't hesitate to test Little's strong leg either.
