Stanley (toe) was able to complete Sunday's 24-18 win over Tennessee, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Stanley made his return to action Sunday after missing Week 3 while nursing a toe injury. The left tackle outlined after the victory that he is still dealing with the issue, and that the injury was sustained in the first half of the team's Week 1 win against the Colts. Stanley seems likely to play Week 5 versus Atlanta, and he's hopeful that the injury can heal on its own.

Brown rushed nine times for 10 yards and brought in all 11 targets for 71 yards in the Bengals' 22-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Brown had drastically different degrees of success in his two roles, gaining next to nothing on the ground while setting a new career high in receptions. The versatile back's boost in involvement as a pass catcher was at least partly a byproduct of Ja'Marr Chase's first-half exit due to a concussion, and it was Brown who caught Joe Burrow's final pass of the day and was tripped up just a yard short of a first down with 56 seconds remaining to snuff out Cincinnati's final chance at a comeback victory. Brown is averaging just 3.6 yards per carry but has a 21-103-0 receiving line on 24 targets through four games heading into a Week 5 road matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday.

Pickens caught two of three targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.

CeeDee Lamb was the target on a massive 21 of Dak Prescott's 45 pass attempts, which didn't leave much volume for any other Cowboy. Pickens made an impact when he got a chance however, hauling in receptions of 53 and 22 yards. Pickens is still looking for his first TD of 2026 after scoring a career-high nine last season, and he'll take an 18-225-0 line on 28 targets through four games into a Week 5 meeting at home against the Buccaneers.

Bagent completed 25 of 34 passes for 268 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets. He also rushed four times for one yard.

After watching Case Keenum beat the Eagles in Week 3 following Caleb Williams' Week 2 hamstring injury, Bagent made his first start since his rookie campaign in 2023. Bagent had three would-be interceptions erased by penalties but threw one that counted in the second quarter, marking the first regular-season interception for the Jets defense since Week 18 of the 2024 season. The Bears rode their running game and defense to a second consecutive win in Williams' absence while Bagent managed to keep the offense on schedule. If Williams isn't ready to return in Week 5, Bagent would presumably get the starting nod against the NFC North rival Packers at Lambeau Field.

Williams carried the ball 19 times for 62 yards and three touchdowns while catching all five of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.

A 16-6 lead for Houston at the half transformed into a barn burner that saw Williams hit paydirt on three straight possessions to begin the second half, with his TD runs coming from eight, one and two yards out. The 26-year-old running back is proving his 2025 breakout was no fluke, and through four games to begin the current campaign he's scored six touchdowns (five on the ground, one through the air) while putting together 308 scrimmage yards. Williams will look to keep rolling in a Week 5 home tilt against the Buccaneers.

Zuhn (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Chiefs, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Zuhn suffered a knee injury early in the first half, and his status for the rest of the game is now uncertain. The offensive lineman is used often in heavy sets on offense, but his absence won't directly impact the team's starting lineup.

Trader (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Minnesota.

The 23-year-old has had a quality 2026 campaign, so his absence wouldn't be ideal for the Dolphins defense. While Trader is off the field, it could mean more snaps for rookie Michael Taaffe.

Lamb caught 17 of 21 targets for 189 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.

Per RJ Ochoa of Blogging The Boys, it was just the fourth time in NFL history, and the first since Brandon Marshall in 2009, that a player recorded 17-plus receptions, 180-plus yards and a TD in a single game. Lamb's final catch was his biggest, as he connected with Dak Prescott for a 12-yard score with just 40 seconds left on the clock to complete a comeback from a 10-point halftime deficit. The 17 catches and 21 targets were career highs for the five-time Pro Bowler, and the yardage total was his best since Week 17 of 2023, when Lamb erupted for 227 yards against the Lions. Lamb will take a massive 37-498-4 line on 46 targets through four games, and a three-game streak of 100-plus receiving yards, into a Week 5 home tilt against the Buccaneers.

Hurts completed 12 of 27 passes for 93 yards and two touchdowns while rushing five times for 18 yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams.

Hurts threw second-quarter touchdowns of 18 and 10 yards to Darius Cooper in the second quarter, the first of which went off the hands of Rams defender Quentin Lake in the end zone. The Eagles started the game without DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dallas Goedert (knee), lost Saquon Barkley (hamstring) in the first quarter and went a franchise-worst 0-for-12 on third down, yet they were still in position to win with a 10-point lead and the ball inside the Rams' 10-yard line halfway through the fourth quarter. Hurts failed on attempts to score with his legs and then his arm as that drive ended in a turnover on downs, and the Rams stormed back with two touchdown drives while the Eagles failed to pick up a first down on their final two drives. Hurts could struggle to produce again in Week 5 against the Jaguars in London if the Eagles remain without some of their key skill players.

Jackson (ankle) was seen wearing a walking boot on his left foot after Sunday's 24-18 victory against the Titans, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Jackson didn't play after halftime in Week 4 after he was sacked late in the second quarter, but what a first half it was: 222 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions on 15-for-20 passing and two rushes for 20 yards. Backup QB Tyler Huntley handled the entire second half, completing eight of nine passes for 63 yards and turning four carries into 16 yards. Head coach Jesse Minter expressed optimism about Jackson's health concern afterward, telling Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com that the team considered allowing its No. 1 signal-caller to return to action. Ultimately, Minter and company opted against it, and Jackson's status now will be monitored in the coming days to see if he may be in danger of missing any more time.
