FitzPatrick (Achilles) has been cleared to resume all football activities by his surgeon, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

FitzPatrick tore his Achilles in the Packers' 2025 Week 16 loss to the Bears. The tight end has finally recovered from his surgery to repair the injury and is set to try out with multiple teams in the foreseeable future.

Chubb logged four tackles (two solo), including 1.5 sacks, in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.

Chubb played just 40 of the Bills' 65 defensive snaps. The veteran pass rusher made good use of his snaps, getting to Jared Goff twice and assisting the team in defending Lions star running back Jahmyr Gibbs throughout the contest.

Hutchinson logged three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Lions' 41-31 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.

Hutchinson sacked Josh Allen on the third play of the game, forcing a fumble that right tackle Spencer Brown recovered. The Lions' top pass rusher almost notched another on the Bills' quarterback, but Allen was able to fend off the 6-foot-7, 268-pounder long enough to send the ball out of bounds. Hutchinson had a very top-heavy night, mostly fending off plays designed to get away from the defensive end as the Bills tried to run out the clock for the majority of the second half.

Hendrickson (finger) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.

Hendrickson sat out for each of the first two practices of the week, but he was spotted at Friday's practice with two of his fingers wrapped in a session that he was limited in. The veteran pass rusher's official status may not be known until when the Ravens release their inactives list 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, though it would be a bit surprising to not see Hendrickson on the field for Baltimore's home opener. He logged one solo tackle and was credited with eight pressures in his Ravens debut against the Colts in a Week 1 win.

O'Connell is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers due to personal reasons.

O'Connell did not participate in practice Thursday and Friday while attending to a personal matter, putting his availability for Sunday's AFC West tilt in doubt. He was the emergency QB3 in Week 1 against the Dolphins, and with the Raiders not carrying a quarterback on the practice squad, Las Vegas may just go with Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza as its quarterbacks for Sunday if O'Connell is unavailable.

Bishop logged six tackles (five solo) in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.

Bishop entered game-day listed as questionable with a groin injury. The safety only logged limited practice sessions leading up to the game during a short week but managed to play all 65 defensive snaps in the contest. The third-year player out of Utah has become a versatile staple of the Bills' defense, frequently being moved toward the line of scrimmage and out wide when necessary.

Campbell made six tackles (two solo) in the Lions' 41-31 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.

Campbell played all 74 defensive snaps for the Lions, displaying intense physical conditioning against a Bills offense that was constantly on the field. The starting middle linebacker posted a similar stat line during Week 1 in a long game against the Saints, showing consistent availability and production for the team's defense.

Benford logged eight tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.

Benford led the Bills in tackles on the night, with linebacker Dorian Williams coming in second with six. Benford did yield a touchdown to Amon-Ra St. Brown at the start of the third quarter despite sticking tight to the wide receiver on a quick slant route. The team's primary outside cornerback played 64 out of the 65 defensive snaps over the course of the night.

Bernard logged five tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.

The linebacker was limited during Tuesday's practice session with a calf injury, but he played all 65 snaps in Thursday's victory. The highlight of the defensive captain's night came when he dropped Jahmyr Gibbs in the backfield for a one-yard loss during the second quarter.

Gore played nine offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.

Gore did not appear in the box score, but the running back was a frequent pass blocker for Josh Allen in the Bills' offense. The practice-squad elevation also participated in kickoff and punt coverage as he filled the No. 3 running back in Ty Johnson's (hamstring) absence.
