Reed signed with the Ravens' practice squad Monday.

The quarterback signed after Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley suffered thumb and toe injuries, respectively, during Sunday's loss to the Bills. Reed spent time with the Ravens during training camp and the preseason, though he has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game. Baltimore's third-string QB, Joe Fagnano, is also dealing with an injury, to his ankle, and was limited during Monday's walkthrough.

Okonkwo tallied two catches (on four targets) for 32 yards during Sunday's 27-10 win versus the Eagles.

Okonkwo logged a typical 77 percent snap share in Week 8, but aside from a stellar 21-yard catch in the fourth quarter, he didn't contribute much to the Commanders offense. Overall, he's mustered just a 17-182-0 line on 24 targets in his five appearances this season, but 15 of his catches have occurred in the four full contests for Jayden Daniels in 2026, so the tight end has exhibited a rapport with the team's primary signal-caller. Okonkwo will aim for a bounceback this coming Sunday against the Rams.

Reed (hip) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.

Reed suffered a hip injury late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Vikings and did not return to the contest. The cornerback's injury appears to be significant enough for Coach Dan Campbell to make a prediction about his Wednesday status. It remains unclear whether or not the starting cornerback will participate in any practice sessions ahead of the team's Week 9 game against the Dolphins.

The Giants signed Gray to their practice squad Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Gray is back with the organization that drafted him back in 2023 after spending some time early in the season on the Browns' practice squad. With regular starter Cam Skattebo dealing with a hamstring issue, there's a chance Gray could end up being elevated to the active roster for the Giants' contest at Philadelphia in Week 9.

Coleman hauled in one catch for four yards on three targets in Sunday's 36-10 win against Baltimore.

Coleman entered the weekend having recorded a touchdown in three straight contests, but he couldn't continue that streak Sunday. In fact, the third-year wideout was almost entirely uninvolved, as his only reception was a four-yarder at the end of the first quarter. Coleman did lead Buffalo wideouts with 63 offensive snaps, so his lack of production wasn't due to a downturn in playing time. He'll look to bounce back in Week 9, though he and the Bills will be on the road facing a tough Minnesota defense.

Fagnano was limited at Monday's walkthrough due to an ankle injury.

Fagnano took a hit to his left knee while subbing in for Lamar Jackson (right thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) during Sunday's loss at Buffalo, but the former's health concern has been confirmed to be to his ankle. While Jackson is out indefinitely and Huntley "probably" won't play Thursday against the Jaguars, Fagnano has a chance to play in that contest, per head coach Jesse Minter. Being limited to kick off Week 9 prep is a step in that direction, but Fagnano may need to upgrade to full Tuesday and/or Wednesday to avoid a game designation.

Saylors (neck) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.

Saylor's neck injury is significant enough that Coach Dan Campbell felt comfortable declaring him doubtful to practice multiple days in advance. The running back couldn't return to Sunday's win over the Vikings because of the injury, and it remains unclear how long he will miss.

Johnson (neck) participated during practice Monday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Johnson missed the Giants' last two games before their bye in Week 8 due to a neck injury, but it looks like the last week of rest may have benefitted him. His status on the Giants' first official injury report of the week Wednesday should shed more light on whether he'll be available in Week 9 at Philadelphia.

Gonzalez is set to remain the starting kicker for the Dolphins' Week 9 matchup with the Lions, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Monday.

Coach Jeff Haffley implied that the Dolphins will utilize Gonzalez's remaining practice squad elevation to suit him up for Week 9. If the team uses the last elevation, the kicker will need to be signed to the active roster to play in any subsequent games this season. Gonzalez is 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and a perfect 5-for-5 on extra points through his two starts in 2026.

Jeudy did not catch his lone target Sunday in Cleveland's 27-6 loss to Pittsburgh.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson had a relatively productive day with 324 passing yards (albeit without a score), but Jeudy received only one of his targets. The veteran wideout logged his usual amount of paying time, notching a 60 percent offensive snap share to finish third among Cleveland wide receivers. It was the third time this season Jeudy has finished without a catch, but the other two instances were in Weeks 3 and 4, and he had been more involved of late, averaging 3.5 catches and 36.3 receiving yards over his previous four games. With that in mind, he could get back on track in Week 9 against a New Orleans defense that has been middle-of-the-pack against wideouts this year.
