AJ Dillon RB | CAR
Panthers' AJ Dillon: Gets garbage-time work in loss
Dillon handled five carries for 28 yards during Sunday's 59-37 loss versus the Bears.
All of Dillon's touches came during Carolina's last drive of the game, when Chicago was leading by 22 points with less than four minutes remaining and more than content to let the Panthers run out the clock. Chuba Hubbard and 2024 second-rounder Jonathon Brooks project to remain clearly ahead of Dillon for carries going into Week 2.

Cairo Santos K | CHI
Bears' Cairo Santos: Makes eight PATs in dominant win
Santos made his sole field-goal attempt and converted eight PATs in Sunday's 59-37 win over the Panthers.
Santos was only called upon for a 40-yard field goal, but the kicker's consistency netted the Bears a total of 11 points. The 34-year-old made all 39 of his point-after attempts in 2025 and has continued that streak through a Week 1 offensive masterclass in 2026.

Malik Benson WR | LV
Raiders' Malik Benson: Negative yardage in NFL debut
Benson caught one pass (on two targets) for six yards while taking his lone carry for minus-8 yards during the Raiders' 27-13 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. He also returned two punts for 35 yards.
Benson caught a six-yard pass from Kirk Cousins in what was the former's first NFL catch, though he lost eight yards on a double reverse that the Dolphins defense snuffed out. Benson's seven snaps on offense were the fewest among Raiders wide receivers Sunday, and even with Brock Bowers (knee) sidelined, the rookie sixth-rounder figures to be an afterthought in Las Vegas' offense, though he'll have the opportunity to make plays on special teams as a punt returner.

Mitchell Evans TE | CAR
Panthers' Mitchell Evans: Limited offensive output in Week 1
Evans caught one of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 59-37 loss to the Bears.
Evans was on the field for 27 of the team's 68 offensive snaps while operating as the team's primary reserve option at tight end behind Tommy Tremble. Evans also logged 17 snaps with the special-teams unit, and he will continue to have limited offensive upside in Week 2 against the Falcons.

Tommy Tremble TE | CAR
Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Three catches in loss
Tremble caught three of his five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 59-37 loss to the Bears.
Tremble played 34 offensive snaps, which equated to just under 56 percent of the Panthers' total offensive plays. The tight end also contributed 11 special-teams snaps in the losing effort, showing some versatility in what was a productive offensive day for the Panthers overall.

Jalen Nailor WR | LV
Raiders' Jalen Nailor: Three catches in Las Vegas debut
Nailor caught three passes (on five targets) for 27 yards during the Raiders' 27-13 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Nailor ended up leading all Raiders wide receivers in targets, though he finished third in that category behind Michael Mayer (seven) and running back Ashton Jeanty (six). Even with Brock Bowers (knee) sidelined, it looks like Nailor will operate in a complementary role in the Raiders offense, especially in games where Jeanty gets it going as he did against Miami. Nailor will look for better results Week 2 on the road against the Chargers.

Jahdae Walker WR | CHI
Bears' Jahdae Walker: Secures touchdown in win
Walker caught his only target for a one-yard touchdown during Sunday's 59-37 win over the Panthers.
Walker made the most of his only touch on offense, reeling in a pass from Caleb Williams for a one-yard score late in the fourth quarter. The wide receiver was on the field for 34 of the team's 75 total offensive snaps, and he added two tackles while playing 16 snaps with the special-teams unit in the contest.

Henry To'oTo'o LB | HOU
Texans' Henry To'oTo'o: Might have to go on IR
To'oTo'o might end up on injured reserve after hurting his shoulder during Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Bills, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that the team was still deciding on To'oTo'o's status. The linebacker was seen wearing a sling after the game. To'oTo'o suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter after playing 46 snaps.
-
Jake Hummel LB | HOU
Texans' Jake Hummel: Week-to-week with groin injury
Hummel (groin) is considered week-to-week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Hummel suffered a groin injury in the third quarter of Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Bills. The linebacker will almost certainly miss the Texans' Week 2 game against the Bengals. Jake Hansen will likely start as the second outside linebacker in Hummel's absence, but the team will probably rely on more nickel packages with Jalen Pitre in the slot while Hummel is absent.

Jacob Parrish CB | TB
Buccaneers' Jacob Parrish: Suffers back sprain
Parrish suffered a back sprain in Sunday's 33-27 loss to the Bengals, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Both the MRI and X-ray came back negative, so the cornerback has avoided any significant damage to his spine. Parrish's ability to return to the field will now be entirely dictated by how well he can manage and play through the pain. The 22-year-old's availability for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Browns will likely be determined by his level of participation during practice this week.
