Banks (toe/knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

The good news for Banks is that he returned to practice Friday in a limited capacity, but he'll miss a third consecutive game due to toe and knee injuries. Laken Tomlinson should continue to start at left guard in Banks' absence.

Penning (concussion) was been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Denver.

Penning has not make much progress through the league's concussion protocol, given that he was held out of practice all week. His next opportunity to play is Week 6 against the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 18.

The Eagles placed Bernard (undisclosed) on the practice squad injured list Friday.

The seventh-round rookie suffered an unknown injury in practice and will need to miss at least four weeks on the practice squad IR. Bernard was unable to retain a spot on the Eagles' 53-man roster and was moved to the practice squad after August's cutdown day to provide additional depth to the team's defensive line.

Awosika (lower leg) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Awosika continues to recover from a fibula injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Raiders. His next chance to play is Week 6 against the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 18, though he has yet to practice since picking up his injury.

Alt (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Alt will not play Sunday due to a neck injury that he picked up against the Seahawks in Week 4. Travis Burke figures to draw the start at right tackle in the absence of Alt, whose next chance to play is Week 6 against the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Jurgens (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

The Eagles traded Jurgens to the Ravens on Wednesday. The center remains in the NFL's concussion protocol and will not be able to suit up for Sunday's contest, meaning fourth-string center Olaivavega Ioane will start to protect backup quarterback Tyler Huntley in Sunday's game due to the injury to star quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle).

Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that X-rays on Guyton's back came back negative, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

It's positive news for the third-year pro, who sustained a back injury late during the Cowboys' loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday. Dallas' Week 6 practice participation will provide clarity on Guyton's chances of playing against the Packers on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Jenkins (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Jenkins will end up missing each of the Browns' first five games of the regular season due to a back injury, which prevented him from practicing all week. His next chance to make his 2026 regular-season debut is Week 6 against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Carlies (ribs) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Carlies was unable to practice throughout the Colts' Week 5 prep. The weakside linebacker injured his ribs in the team's Week 4 win over the Commanders in London. Tahj Chambers or Austin Ajiake will start at weakside linebacker in Carlies' absence.

Matthews (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Matthews was able to log a full practice Friday, but the Falcons aren't quite ready to clear the veteran offensive lineman for Sunday's game. If he cannot play due to a groin injury, then Michael Jerrell would likely start at left tackle.
