Hooker (forearm) has already been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Ravens in Brazil.

The safety suffered a forearm fracture in Dallas' Week 1 loss to the Giants and had to miss the team's Week 2 win over the Commanders. Hooker also didn't practice Wednesday, and now he won't play until Oct. 4 against the Texans at the earliest.

Overshown (hamstring) is not making the trip to Brazil for Sunday's matchup with the Ravens.

The inside linebacker suffered the hamstring injury during Dallas' Week 1 loss to the Giants, missed the team's Week 2 win over the Commanders and sat out of practice Wednesday. Overshown will now have to work toward returning for Dallas' Week 4 matchup with the Texans on Oct. 4.

Oliver (hip) was limited during Thursday's practice.

Oliver suffered a hip injury during warmups ahead of the 41-31 win over Detroit in Week 2. The veteran didn't practice Wednesday. However, since he was back in a limited capacity Thursday, it appears he's trending favorably toward returning for the Week 3 meeting with the Chargers. If Oliver ends up missing a second consecutive game, DeWayne Carter may continue to see more snaps.

Bellinger (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

The tight end was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. Bellinger, currently the No. 2 tight end on Tennessee's depth chart, played on 14 offensive snaps in Week 1 and 24 in Week 2. If he can't go Sunday versus the Giants, David Martin-Robinson and Kylen Granson might see more snaps behind starter Gunnar Helm.

Allen (hip) was limited in practice Thursday.

Allen is battling a hip injury, though it's unknown if it will keep him off the field Sunday versus New England. The 22-year-old hasn't had much of a role on offense for Jacksonville through the first two games of the 2026 campaign. That isn't expected to change anytime soon. If Allen doesn't suit up in Week 3, it could mean a few more snaps for Chris Rodriguez and Ameer Abdullah behind Bhayshul Tuten.

Jones (shoulder) did not practice Thursday.

Jones suffered a shoulder injury in the 20-3 win over the Steelers in Week 2. Since then, he's missed the last two practice sessions. If Jones can't suit up in Week 3 against Jacksonville, Gabe Jucas is a candidate for more snaps.

Allen (knee) missed practice for the second day in a row Thursday, but the reason listed was rest, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

The defensive tackle popped up on the injury report Wednesday with a knee issue, but it does not appear to be serious. Allen should be able to continue playing a starting role for the Bengals on the defensive line this Sunday against the Steelers. The veteran has six tackles (five solo), including 2.0 sacks, through two games.

Woodson (shoulder) did not practice Thursday.

Woodson suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday's 20-3 win over Pittsburgh. He didn't practice Wednesday, with that trend continuing Thursday. The 25-year-old doesn't appear to be heading in a favorable direction, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him carry an injury designation for the Week 3 clash with the Jaguars. If Woodson isn't available, Jaylen Reed may continue to be more involved.

Mauigoa (quadriceps) missed practice for the second day in a row Thursday.

The linebacker suffered the injury during last week's loss to the Packers and did not return to the contest. It appears to still be bothering him, as he has yet to return to the field. Mauigoa has only played on special teams so far this season.

Raridon (thigh) did not practice Thursday.

Raridon was injured in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers. He practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday. However, the 22-year-old appeared to take a step back by missing Thursday's session. Raridon will have another opportunity to practice Friday or else he may carry an injury designation ahead of the Week 3 meeting with Jacksonville. The rookie appeared in both of the Patriots' games to begin the 2026 campaign, catching both targets for 32 yards and one touchdown.
