Miller (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's contest against the Falcons.

Miller was forced to miss the team's last two contests while nursing a toe injury, but he was cleared to return to action in Week 4. The team appears to be taking a cautious approach with his health, and he will be a healthy scratch versus Atlanta. In his absence, Nathan Shepherd and Davon Godchaux will continue to operate as the primary options at nose tackle for the Saints.

Fitzpatrick recorded 16 tackles (eight solo) and an interception during the Jets' 23-12 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

Fitzpatrick's interception during Sunday's loss was the Jets' first since the start of the 2025 regular season, coinciding with the start of Aaron Glenn's head coaching tenure with the franchise, and the pick led to a 36-yard field goal by Jason Sanders midway in the second quarter. Fitzpatrick and three other Jets players played a whopping 93 defensive snaps due to the fact that the Bears finished with a 42:45 time of possession. Given the large workload in Week 4, coupled with the fact that Fitzpatrick missed the Jets' two prior games due to a groin injury, it wouldn't be surprising to see the veteran safety's practice participation limited ahead of the team's Week 5 home tilt against the Browns.

Werner (neck) is active for Monday night's matchup with Atlanta.

Werner suffered a neck injury during the team's Week 3 loss to Las Vegas, but he is all set to play Monday. The linebacker has registered 21 total tackles (13 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over three contests so far this season.

Greenard (ankle) is considered day-to-day after exiting Sunday's game against the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Greenard played just 19 defensive snaps against Los Angeles before suffering his injury. If he needs to miss time, Jalyx Hunt, Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa would be next in line for snaps off the edge opposite Nolan Smith. Greenard is still looking for his first sack of the season after recording just 3.0 sacks with Minnesota in 2025.

Rush (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Saints but will serve as the emergency quarterback, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Rush started the Falcons' first two regular-season games before being sidelined due to the return of Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa from their respective knee and oblique issues. The quarterback will remain the emergency third option behind the two active players, entering the game only if both Penix and Tagovailoa cannot continue.

Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Saints' emergency third quarterback for Monday night's contest against the Falcons.

Wilson will operate as the team's No. 3 QB for the fourth game in a row to begin the 2026 campaign. Wilson will only be eligible to enter the contest if both starter Tyler Shough and top backup Spencer Rattler are forced out of the game.

Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed Monday that Lane (ankle) will miss the remainder of the season.

Lane suffered a gruesome ankle injury returning a kickoff in Sunday's loss to the Colts in London and had to be carted off. It was clear at the time that he wasn't going to be back this season. Dyami Brown took over as the Commanders' primary kick returner following Lane's injury.

Fant (abdomen) is listed as inactive for Monday's game against the Falcons.

Despite being a limited practice participant during Week 4 prep, Fant will miss his first contest of the campaign due to an abdominal injury. Oscar Delp and Treyton Welch thus will serve as the reserve tight ends behind starter Juwan Johnson on Monday. Fant's next chance to play is this coming Sunday versus the Vikings.

McConkey (foot), per head coach Jim Harbaugh, is "week-to-week," Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com reports.

McConkey suited up for Sunday's loss to the Seahawks despite dealing with a foot injury throughout the week, but he was forced from the game with the same issue, and Harbaugh's comment Monday indicates he could miss some time. More about McConkey's status will be known when the Chargers next release an official injury report Wednesday, but should McConkey wind up sidelined, Quentin Johnston and Tre' Harris would presumably be Justin Herbert's clear top two options at the wideout spots.

Coach Dan Quinn said Monday that White (shoulder) "should" practice this week, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.

White sat out the entirety of Week 4 prep before being ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Colts in London as he deals with a shoulder injury. The Commanders resume practicing Wednesday, after which his activity level, if any, will become known. In three contests this season, White has 31 touches for 151 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD.
