Coach Dave Canales said after Sunday's 13-6 win at the Jets that Young is undergoing further tests on his right ankle, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Young left Sunday's game in the second half due to an ankle injury and eventually was ruled out, ending Week 7 action with 138 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions on 15-for-25 passing along with two carries for 10 yards. If Young requires any time on the sideline, veteran QB Andy Dalton is on hand for spot starts.

Jefferson brought in five of 10 targets for 79 yards in the Vikings' 28-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Jefferson posted a team-high 40-yard reception during the close contest, but he ultimately played second fiddle to Jordan Addison, who finished with a 9-128-0 line on 12 targets, all team-high figures. Nevertheless, Jefferson's day wasn't a total washout by any stretch, and he extended his streak of 75-plus-yard tallies to five games while also getting to at least five receptions for the fourth consecutive contest. Jefferson hasn't found the end zone since Week 1 against the Bears, however, a matter he'll look to rectify Thursday night when the Vikings and Chargers open the Week 8 slate in Los Angeles.

Armstrong (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

Armstrong is dealing with an apparent knee injury, which he suffered on the first possession of the game for Dallas. With Armstrong's status up in the air, Eddie Goldman, Jer'Zhan Newton and Jalyn Holmes are top candidates to see an increase in workload on the defensive line.

Achane rushed 13 times for 82 yards and brought in three of five targets for 16 yards in the Dolphins' 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

The Dolphins' point total and the fact Tua Tagovailoa managed only 100 passing yards while throwing three interceptions essentially tells the tale of the type of day it was for Miami's offense as a whole. Therefore, Achane's solid numbers served as the one bright spot for Mike McDaniel's squad, and the speedy running back gained well more than half his total on a 46-yard run late in the first quarter. Achane has rattled off 210 rushing yards and a pair of Week 6 rushing touchdowns on 29 carries over his last two games, but the Dolphins' reeling offensive unit faces an unenviable Week 8 road matchup against the Falcons next Sunday afternoon.

Deculus (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Colts.

Deculus suffered an ankle injury in the first quarter, and his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air. Foster Sarell is a top candidate to replace him at left tackle against Indianapolis.

Head coach Aaron Glenn said after Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Panthers that Gardner has entered the league's concussion protocol, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Gardner took a hit to the head during the second half of Sunday's game. Now that he's in the league's five-step concussion protocol, Gardner would have to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to be available for the Jets' Week 8 road clash against the Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 26. Jarvis Brownlee would be the next man up at outside corner if Gardner misses time.

Ogbonnia is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts due to an elbow injury.

Ogbonnia sustained the injury early in the first quarter, and he'll be evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Naquan Jones and Scott Matlock are in line to see more snaps at defensive end for as long as Ogbonnia is out of the game.

McCoy (biceps) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Bears.

McCoy left in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest after sustaining a bicep injury and was quickly ruled out. Luke Fortner is now in at center for the Saints.

Ojomo (head) is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Ojomo took a hit to the head in the fourth quarter, and he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Byron Young is the next man up at defensive end for as long as Ojomo is out of the game.

Monk is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Monk is good to go after being activated from the injured reserve Saturday. The 24-year-old center has been sidelined all season with a hamstring injury. Finally free of the injury designation, Monk looks to bolster the Packers' offensive line depth against the Cardinals.
