Alt (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Colts.

Alt will miss his third straight game this week, as he is still recovering from an ankle injury he suffered in Week 4. The 2024 first-round pick did return to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, which is a good sign for his status next week.

Moore should see a boost in targets in Sunday's Week 7 clash against the Cowboys due to the inactive status of Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Deebo Samuel (heel), as well as the absence of Noah Brown (IR, groin/knee).

The Commanders' receiving corps has suffered some serious attrition in recent weeks, and Moore is one of the last men standing for the time being. The veteran flashed with a 3-46-1 line on five targets in the Week 6 loss to the Bears, and he'll profile as one of Jayden Daniels' top targets alongside Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane in Sunday's divisional showdown.

Havrisik will serve as the Packers' placekicker Sunday at Arizona with Brandon McManus (right quadriceps) inactive for the contest, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Havrisik is getting his second chance to supplement the Packers offense in as many weekends as McManus remains sidelined due a right quad injury. In last Sunday's win versus the Bengals, Havrisik connected on both field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries.

Kneeland (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Kneeland earned the questionable tag for Week 7 after being limited in practice all week due to an ankle injury that he aggravated in Week 6. He has not been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups, which means Jadeveon Clowney, James Houston and rookie second-rounder Donovan Ezeiruaku should see more rotational snaps at defensive end in Kneeland's absence.

Jones (hamstring) is active for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

Jones will make his return to action after missing four weeks while on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. The cornerback will provide the team with some much-needed help in the secondary while Washington faces off with the likes of CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and Jake Ferguson in Week 7.

Wicks (ankle) is listed as active Sunday in Arizona, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Wicks made an early departure from last Sunday's win against the Bengals due to an ankle injury and subsequently was limited in all three of the Packers' Week 7 practices. However, the issue won't impact his availability for Sunday, and he'll be among Green Bay wide receivers suiting up for QB Jordan Love along with Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams.

McManus (right quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game in Arizona, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

McManus thus will miss his second contest in a row due to the right quadriceps that he tweaked at the beginning of Week 6 prep. In McManus' stead, Lucas Havrisik will fill again after striking true on both field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries during last Sunday's win against the Bengals. McManus' next opportunity for game action is next Sunday's road matchup with the Steelers.

Thomas (migraine) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Thomas missed Friday's practice due to a migraine, and the issue is severe enough for him to miss his first game of the regular season. Markquese Bell will likely start at safety alongside Donovan Wilson in Thomas' absence.

Brissett will start in place of an inactive Kyler Murray (foot) on Sunday versus the Packers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Brissett is subbing in for Murray for a second contest in a row after the former completed 27 of 44 passes for 320 yards, two touchdowns and one interception and turned three carries into 19 yards in the Cardinals' Week 6 loss at Indianapolis. In Week 7, though, Brissett will be facing a tougher test in Green Bay's 11th-ranked pass defense (207.2 yards per game). Sunday's outing may be Brissett's last spot start for the foreseeable future, as Murray expected to return to action Week 9 in Dallas after a Week 8 bye, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Molden (thumb) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.

A thumb injury prevented Molden from practicing all week, and the fourth-year safety will miss his third game of the year as a result. With Molden inactive, rookie sixth-rounder RJ Mickens and Tony Jefferson are the top candidates to start at safety alongside Derwin James. Molden will aim to progress enough in his recovery to play Thursday against the Vikings.
