Williams went to the locker room Sunday at Carolina with an apparent leg injury, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Williams removed himself from the game with 2:34 remaining in the first half following a five-yard run, after which trainers were examining his right leg. The exact nature of the issue isn't known, but he had seven carries for 39 yards and didn't haul in either of his two targets before his exit. Blake Corum will take over the Rams backfield for as long as Williams is sidelined.

Conklin is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

While Conklin gets evaluated by medical staff, KT Leveston has entered the game at right tackle.

Washington was forced out of Sunday's game against the Titans with a hip injury.

Prior to exiting the contest, Washington caught one of his three targets for 26 yards. While he's sidelined, Brian Thomas, Jakobi Meyers, Tim Patrick and Austin Trammell are available to handle the Jaguars' WR duties.

Ingold is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints due to a stinger.

The fullback did not record a stat before exiting. Ingold has just two carries for nine yards and five catches for 36 yards on the year.

Franks (calf) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

The tight end did not record a catch before exiting. Franks has played primarily on special teams this season.

Marks (foot) returned to Sunday's game against the Colts, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Marks exited the contest after sustaining a foot injury, but he was subsequently able to return to action and reclaim his role in a Week 13 Houston backfield that also includes Nick Chubb.

Reed (forearm) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

Reed left in the second quarter after sustaining a forearm injury attempting to stop a third-down run by Jonathan Taylor. The safety managed to log two total tackles before his untimely exit. The Texans are thin at safety, so other defensive backs like Tremon Smith and Myles Bryant will likely have to fill in if Reed is unable to return.

Martin has entered the league's concussion protocol and has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

The 49ers are on a bye in Week 14, so Martin will have additional time to progress through and clear the league's concussion protocol before San Francisco's Week 15 clash against Tennessee on Sunday, Dec. 14. The rookie third-rounder has contributed mostly on special teams, but his absence further depletes a 49ers linebacker corps that is without Tatum Bethune (ankle) and Fred Warner (ankle - IR).

The Cowboys designated Diggs (concussion/knee) for return from injured reserve Sunday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

The transaction opens up a 21-day window for the Cowboys to evaluate Diggs during practice, though team owner Jerry Jones already said Friday that he anticipates the veteran cornerback being available for next Thursday's matchup with the Lions, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. Diggs has been out since Week 6 due to a concussion as well as a right knee injury.

Gardner (calf) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Texans, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Gardner had to be helped to the locker room early in the first quarter after sustaining a calf injury, which is severe enough that he won't return. Mekhi Blackmon should see more work at outside corner the rest of the way.
