The Falcons changed London's status to questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a hip injury, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

London didn't show up on Atlanta's Week 8 injury report until Friday as a limited participant with the hip issue, and the team then didn't tag him with a game-day designation. With the slight downgrade, his status now will need to be monitored ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff to see if he'll be available. London currently sits with a 38-469-2 receiving line on 63 targets in six games this season, and if he's active he likely will be working with quarterback Kirk Cousins because regular starter Michael Penix (knee) is trending toward sitting out, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

The Packers activated Watson (knee) from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Watson was limited in practice all week and drew the questionable tag for Week 8, but his activation from the PUP list Saturday is a positive sign for the 2022 second-rounder. He is in the final stages of his recovery from a torn right ACL that he sustained in Week 18 of the 2024 season against the Bears, but whether he plays Sunday may not be officially known until the Packers announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes prior to the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Watson's return would bolster Green Bay's wide receiver corps, which will be without Dontayvion Wicks (calf) for Week 8 while rookie first-rounder Matthew Golden (hip) is listed as questionable.

Diggs (concussion) was placed on the injured reserve list Saturday.

Diggs was sidelined for the Cowboys' Week 7 win over the Commanders due to a concussion, and he'll now be forced to miss at least the team's next four games following his placement on IR. The 27-year-old appeared in Dallas' first six games this season, recording 18 total tackles. While he's sidelined for the foreseeable future, expect Caelen Carson to see increased snaps with the Cowboys' first-team defense.

Davis was elevated to the Cowboys' active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

With Miles Sanders (knee/ankle) and Phil Mafah (shoulder) both on injured reserve, Davis' elevation provides the Cowboys with running-back depth. The Florida product was active for Dallas' Week 7 win over the Commanders, failing to record an offensive stat across 19 total snaps (18 on special teams, one on offense). He's expected to play a similar role in the Week 8 matchup against the Broncos on Sunday.

Hunt (ankle/knee) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Commanders.

Hunt didn't practice Thursday due to ankle and knee injuries, but he was able to log a full session Saturday to fade an injury tag heading into Monday night's contest. Hunt has logged 53 carries for 205 yards and three touchdowns while adding seven catches (on eight targets) for 55 yards through seven regular-season games.

Simmons (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Commanders.

The 2025 first-round pick from Ohio State is now in line to miss his third consecutive game as he continues to deal with a "family situation." While Simmons remains sidelined, Jaylon Moore is expected to start at left tackle.

Holland (knee) has been downgraded and ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

The Oregon product sustained a knee injury in the Week 7 loss to the Broncos and was unable to practice all week, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Sunday. While Holland misses his first game as a Giant, Dane Belton is expected to step in and start at free safety.

Proche was elevated to the Titans' active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

The veteran wideout is now in line to make his 2025 debut in the Week 8 matchup against the Colts. Proche's last in-game action came with the Browns in 2024, when he caught all three of his targets for 21 yards while also accumulating 172 kick-return yards across nine contests. Now with Tennessee's active roster, he could contribute both offensively and on special teams Sunday.

Head coach Andy Reid said Saturday that Hunt (ankle/knee) is expected to play against the Commanders on Monday, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

Hunt was back at practice Friday and Saturday after missing Thursday's session, and it appears the veteran running back will be available for Week 8 after working through ankle and knee injuries. Hunt and Isiah Pacheco will continue to serve as the Chiefs' one-two punch out of the backfield while rookie Brashard Smith provides depth.

Smith (back) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Commanders.

The Tennessee product didn't practice all week after sustaining a back injury in the Chiefs' Week 7 win over the Raiders, so it's no surprise that he'll likely be sidelined Monday night. Expect Wanya Morris to start at right guard if Smith is inactive in Week 8.
