The Bengals elevated Hudson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Hudson was released by the Bengals in late August before returning to the team on the practice squad. The tight end was unable to make the original 53-man roster over Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample, Erick All or Jack Endries, but it appears the team would like him to suit up for Sunday's game alongside the other four options anyway.

The Eagles placed Stowers (quadriceps/hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday.

Stowers has been dealing with a hamstring injury since at least Aug. 24, which limited him in all three Week 1 practices before the Eagles tabbed him as questionable for Sunday's season opener against the Commanders. At the same time the team placed him on IR, he was ruled out with not only the hamstring issue but a quad concern. The rookie second-round pick thus will miss at least the first four games of the campaign, allowing Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins to handle the TE reps that don't go to No. 1 option Dallas Goedert.

The Ravens elevated Moore from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

With Devontez Walker (groin) listed as questionable for Sunday's game, Moore has a chance to suit up as a depth addition to the Ravens' wide receiver corps as the team takes on the Colts. Moore played in 14 regular-season games for the Commanders in 2025, catching 11 passes for 207 yards and a touchdown.

The Raiders elevated White from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

White is set to suit up for the Raiders because the team has three wide receivers currently on injured reserve. Dont'e Thornton (undisclosed), Justin Shorter (undisclosed) and Corey Rucker (undisclosed) all must miss at least four games, allowing White to show out as a valuable depth option for the receiving corps and special teams unit.

The Raiders elevated Myarick from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

With Brock Bowers (knee) set to miss a couple of weeks as he recovers from meniscus surgery, Myrarick will have a chance to prove his worth on an NFL field. The tight end is set for the No. 3 role behind Michael Mayer and Ian Thomas, likely playing most of his snaps for the Raiders' special teams unit.

Jones (calf) does not have an injury designation ahead of Monday night's game against the Broncos.

Jones did not participate in Saturday's practice, but it won't change his status for Monday. The defensive tackle was resting due to some tension in his calf, but the veteran player is all set to suit up for Monday's divisional showdown with the Broncos.

Mahomes (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's game against the Broncos.

Mahomes was a full participant in all three practices during Week 1 prep, and the 30-year-old quarterback is officially good to go for Monday's season opener. His mobility could still be limited, as he'll be wearing a protective brace on the left knee in which he tore both his ACL and LCL in Week 15 of last season. The brace could restrict his ability to move around the pocket and scramble out of trouble, which could loom large with undrafted rookie Khalil Benson expected to start at left tackle while Josh Simmons (back) sits out.

The Packers elevated Melton from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Melton is all set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Vikings as a temporary replacement for Savion Williams (ankle) as he recovers from his injury on IR. Melton played in 16 regular-season games for the Packers in 2025, catching four passes for 107 yards and a touchdown. The wide receiver also played 186 special teams snaps, making him a versatile elevation for the Week 1 divisional showdown.

The Jets have elevated Sanders from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Sanders won the kicking battle over Cade York this summer despite neither instilling confidence in the Jets' coaching staff. The team elected to sign Blake Grupe, who also has not shown enough to start, giving Sanders a chance in Week 1. If Sanders has a strong week, he will likely be elevated once more in Week 2 before the team must decide who will truly hold the starting job throughout the regular season.

The Jets placed Patrick (groin) on injured reserve Saturday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Patrick was ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest after Friday's practice. The wide receiver's groin injury seems to be lingering, so the 32-year-old will spend some time on IR. Patrick will be eligible to return from IR after four games, meaning Isaiah Williams and Arian Smith will likely see a greater share of reserve opportunities with the Jets' wide receiver corps.
