Cashman (wrist) was a full participant at the Vikings' practice Thursday.

Cashman opened the week with a limited session Wednesday due to a wrist injury, but he now appears to be good to go for Week 2. The 30-year-old compiled seven total tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Week 1 against the Packers, and the team is taking on a Bears offense Sunday that scored 59 points in their regular-season opener.

Hendrickson (finger) did not participate at practice Thursday.

Hendrickson was a surprise addition to Baltimore's injury report Wednesday, and now his status for Week 2 is up in the air. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity Friday to have any chance of being active Sunday versus the Saints.

Hargrave (knee/concussion) did not participate in practice Thursday.

The defensive tackle was limited Wednesday. Hargrave played on 29 defensive snaps and one special-teams snap last week against Minnesota, making one tackle. If he can't go Sunday, Jonathan Ford is the next man up at nose tackle.

Newsome (ribs) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The exact nature of his injury is still unknown, but Newsome's status for Week 2 is now up in the air. If he can't return to practice in full Friday or Saturday, he might end up carrying an injury designation on the final injury report before Monday night's game against the Rams.

Banks (calf) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News, Banks was working off to the side with trainers Thursday. It's not clear when he sustained the calf injury, but it doesn't look like it's anything too severe. If he's able to manage a full practice Friday, he could still avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Onwuzurike was signed to the active roster by the Lions ahead of Thursday night's contest against the Bills.

Onwuzurike was signed to Detroit's practice squad Saturday after being let go by the team the day prior. The 28-year-old will now return to the Lions' active roster for the first time since the 2024 campaign after he missed the entire 2025 campaign while recovering from a torn ACL. Onwuzurike will have the chance to play a significant role on the defensive line versus Buffalo, potentially starting alongside Alim McNeill at defensive tackle.

Spillane (knee) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

The inside linebacker was limited during Wednesday's session. Spillane played on all 50 defensive snaps and led the Patriots in tackles during the team's Week 1 loss to the Seahawks. He's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Steelers.

Ponds (calf) was a full participant at practice Thursday.

Ponds started the new week of preparation with a limited practice Wednesday, but it now looks like there's little doubt he'll be available in Week 2. The rookie second-rounder might be eased into the Jets' defensive gameplan slowly to start his pro career.

Ossai (foot) did not participate at practice Thursday.

Ossai sat out Sunday's win at Tennessee due to a foot injury he suffered during the preseason, and he still hasn't been able to return to practice. Unless he can practice in some capacity Friday, he'll likely be sidelined again in Week 2 versus the Packers.

Perine (knee) was listed as a non-participant at the Bengals' practice Thursday.

Perine was added to the injury report with an apparent knee injury after opening the week without a listed practice status Wednesday. The running back turned five carries into 20 yards and reeled in all three of his targets for 30 yards during the team's 33-27 win over the Buccaneers in Week 1, but he may have suffered a knee injury at some point during the contest. Perine will have another chance to practice Friday, but if he can't go Sunday against Houston, Tahj Brooks would stand to operate as the team's primary backup option behind Chase Brown in Cincinnati's backfield.
