The Colts are trading DT DeForest Buckner to the 49ers. Buckner is a three-time Pro Bowler and is in his 11th NFL season.
| Footballguys view: Earlier on Tuesday, the Colts traded Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks. Buckner returns to the team that made him a 2016 first-round pick before dealing him to Indianapolis in 2020, adding some much-needed heft to the 49ers' defensive line. |

Packers | Matthew Golden estimated as DNP again on Tuesday Tue Oct 27, 04:21 PM
Packers WR Matthew Golden was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
| Footballguys view: It is the second straight day Golden was estimated as DNP after also being listed that way on Monday. Golden was hurt in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Lions but returned and finished the game, so there's reason for some optimism. The Packers will file their final injury report for Thursday night's game on Wednesday. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson expected to return from ankle injury for Week 8 at Bills Tue Oct 27, 03:34 PM
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is expected to play against the Bills in Week 8 on Sunday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Jackson has missed the past three games with an ankle injury. He was limited in practice all of last week before being listed as questionable on Friday and then ruled out on Saturday for last Sunday's game against the Bengals. We'll be following this one closely all week. |

Bears | Kyle Monangai still not practicing Tuesday Tue Oct 27, 03:22 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai (toe) was not on the practice field when the team returned to practice on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Monangai was ruled out of last Thursday's win over the Patriots. Because they play against the Seahawks in Seattle on Monday night this week, the Bears will not release their first injury report until Thursday. We'll be following up as needed. |

Colts | Jonathan Taylor 'isn't a lock to be traded', currently 'looking like a no' Tue Oct 27, 03:21 PM
Colts RB Jonathan Taylor "isn't a lock to be traded," and a deal is "as of now, looking like a no."
| Footballguys view: The Colts, who dealt OL Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks earlier Tuesday, "surely aren't done" making moves, "but that doesn't mean everything must go," with ESPN's Adam Schefter sharing the same view on Taylor. There are "still two weeks left for things and minds to change" before the trade deadline. |

Panthers | Bryce Young full again on Tuesday's estimated report Tue Oct 27, 03:12 PM
Panthers QB Bryce Young (knee) was listed as a full participant again on Tuesday's estimated injury report.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers held a walk-through on Tuesday because of the short week, so the report was a projection. Game statuses for Thursday's game at Green Bay come on Wednesday, but expect Young to start and play as usual. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker upgraded to full on Tuesday's estimated report Tue Oct 27, 03:12 PM
Panthers WR Jalen Coker (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Tuesday's injury report after he was limited on Monday.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers held another walk-through on Tuesday because of the short week, so the report was a projection. The final report with game statuses for Thursday's game at Green Bay comes on Wednesday. Still, a positive trajectory (even estimated) is a good sign. We'll follow up after the injury report is released on Wednesday. |

Jaguars | Coen on Travis Hunter's snaps: 'We're not going to over-rotate to a good game' Tue Oct 27, 02:17 PM
Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter's snaps will not change dramatically after his best two-way game, head coach Liam Coen said on Monday. "Just keep chomping away at it," Coen said. "We're not going to over-rotate to a good game. There are a lot of games left in the season."
| Footballguys view: Hunter caught four passes for 59 yards and a touchdown and intercepted Texans QB C.J. Stroud in the end zone in the Week 6 loss to Houston, and Coen added that "last week you saw his impact and effect on games where he is playing more." It's going to take some time for fantasy investors to get a feel for how consistent Hunter's offensive opportunities might be. But with Brian Thomas Jr. struggling (and possibly being a trade candidate), proactively adding Hunter on a speculative basis makes sense. |

Giants | Tyrone Tracy Jr. headed to IR with hamstring injury, 'down four games' Tue Oct 27, 01:55 PM
Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. is being placed on injured reserve with the hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Texans, GM Joe Schoen told reporters during his bye-week press conference on Tuesday. Schoen said it is not a long-term injury, but Tracy will miss four games.
| Footballguys view: Cam Skattebo is dealing with a minor hamstring issue that is expected to heal over the off week. Assuming he's fully healthy, Skattebo could benefit from more work in the passing game, in addition to the slight bump in snaps that is also likely to come. Devin Singletary will also benefit. |

Bengals | Bengals place Erick All Jr. on IR, bring back TE Cam Grandy Tue Oct 27, 01:37 PM
The Bengals officially placed TE Erick All Jr. on injured reserve with a knee injury on Tuesday. Cincinnati brought back TE Cam Grandy to the 53-man roster from the Vikings' practice squad.
| Footballguys view: The team also placed rookie TE Josh Kattus on practice squad injured reserve and replaced him on the practice squad with TE Caden Prieskorn, a first-year player out of Ole Miss. The Bengals already put Tanner Hudson on injured reserve this season, so adding depth behind Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample was important. Of course, Gesicki is the lone fantasy-relevant option at the position here. |

Colts | Keenan Allen named among Colts players to watch before trade deadline Tue Oct 27, 12:44 PM
Colts WR Keenan Allen is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Allen has emerged as one of the Colts' most consistent offensive performers in recent weeks. He's been mentioned in reports suggesting the Bills would be interested. Allen is no longer the elite receiver he once was, but he is still a good veteran option and could be a safety net for Josh Allen. Stay tuned. |

Colts | Josh Downs listed among Colts trade candidates as team listens on everyone Tue Oct 27, 12:44 PM
Colts WR Josh Downs is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter points to Downs, DeForest Buckner, and Grover Stewart as players who could potentially be on the move. Downs has fallen short of expectations this season, but that seems more due to overall circumstances than any shortcomings on his part. We'll see if he draws legitimate interest. |

Seahawks | Colts agree to trade eight-time Pro Bowl G Quenton Nelson to Seahawks Tue Oct 27, 12:37 PM
The Colts have agreed to trade eight-time Pro Bowl G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks, a deal NFL Network's Ian Rapoport also reported on Tuesday. Nelson is on an expiring contract, and the Colts opted to get draft capital back now rather than risk losing him in free agency.
| Footballguys view: Seattle is poised to have five compensatory picks in 2027 and will also receive a third-round pick after executive Nolan Teasley became Minnesota's GM, flexibility that has allowed the team to be aggressive in the trade market. |
Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice Wednesday, LaFleur says Tue Oct 27, 01:08 AM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice on Wednesday, head coach Mike LaFleur said Monday. Love has missed the last two games with an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Love injured his right ankle in the preseason. He played through his left ankle injury, which he sustained in Week 4, before the Cardinals shut him down to let it heal. Bam Knight and Tyler Allgeier have replaced Love in the backfield. Love has 67 carries for 245 yards and a touchdown, and 11 catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. |

49ers | Christian McCaffrey has 'mild' hamstring strain, team 'pretty optimistic' post-bye Tue Oct 27, 01:07 AM
49ers RB Christian McCaffrey has a mild hamstring strain, head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday. The team believes McCaffrey will be fine coming out of the bye. "We're pretty optimistic," Shanahan said.
| Footballguys view: McCaffrey was hurt in Sunday's 29-20 loss to the Falcons, returned to the field after warming up before the third quarter, and said after the game, "I know I'll be alright." We'll be watching for more, but the real clarity will come when San Francisco hits the field to begin their Week 9 preparations. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley doesn't expect back injury to keep him out, hamstring 'came out fine' Tue Oct 27, 12:33 AM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said his back flared up on his first run of Monday's loss to the Cowboys, noting that sometimes you overcompensate when dealing with a different injury. Barkley said his hamstring came out fine and he doesn't expect the back to keep him out. "Just can't find a way to finish the game. But yeah, banged up a little bit," Barkley said.
| Footballguys view: Barkley returned from a two-game absence only to be limited -- he spent time in the medical tent, on the exercise bike, and stretching on the sidelines. Still, he was effective. Barkley had seven carries for 62 yards and a touchdown and added two receptions for nine yards before the back injury sidelined him. Barkley became the first starter in the last 20 seasons to play at least nine offensive snaps in a game and get a touch on all of them. The Eagles play the Commanders in Week 8. We'll have more on Barkley in coming days. |

49ers | Shanahan hopeful Mike Evans returns for Week 9 vs. Raiders Tue Oct 27, 12:17 AM
49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday that he is hopeful WR Mike Evans (Achilles) will be back for the team's Week 9 game against the Raiders.
| Footballguys view: Evans was ruled out on Friday and missed Sunday's Week 7 game at Atlanta. We spoke with USA Today's Kyle Madson over the weekend, and he said the team expected Evans and Deebo Samuel to both be ready after the bye. Madson added that De'Zhaun Stribling and Demarcus Robinson could return soon as well. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker limited on Monday's estimated report Tue Oct 27, 12:15 AM
Panthers WR Jalen Coker (shoulder) was listed as limited on Monday's injury report. The Panthers held only a walk-through on Monday, so the report is an estimate, as they prepare for Thursday's Week 8 game at Green Bay.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers held only a walk-through on Monday, so the report is an estimate as they prepare for Thursday's Week 8 game at Green Bay. This is a new injury for Coker, so we'll be following up as needed, likely all the way through Thursday's kickoff. |

Packers | Matthew Golden on estimated injury report ahead of Thursday game Tue Oct 27, 12:12 AM
Packers WR Matthew Golden (shoulder) was among seven players on Green Bay's estimated injury report on Monday.
| Footballguys view: The Packers did not practice but released an estimated report because of the quick turnaround for Thursday's Week 8 game against the Panthers. Golden was hurt in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Lions but returned and finished the game. We'll be following up on his progress as needed, right up through Thursday's kickoff. |

Cardinals | Jalen Brooks has wrist surgery, 'done for the season'; Fehoko to fill his role Mon Oct 26, 10:59 PM
Cardinals WR Jalen Brooks had surgery on Monday to repair the wrist he injured late in Sunday's loss to the Broncos, when he was tackled at the Denver 1-yard line at the end of a 35-yard catch. "Have to get an emergency surgery on my wrist. I don't need any phone calls. Just Prayer. I'll be done for the season," Brooks posted. He played in all seven games without a start, catching five of 17 targets for 81 yards, and his targets had increased after the Cardinals traded WR Marvin Harrison Jr. WR Simi Fehoko, who has mostly played special teams, will now fill Brooks' role on offense.

Bengals | Erick All Jr. injures surgically repaired knee, Bengals sign TE Cam Grandy Mon Oct 26, 08:15 PM
Bengals TE Erick All Jr. limped off the field in Sunday's win over the Ravens with an injury to his right knee, the same knee in which he had ACL surgery that sidelined him for a year and a half. Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday he is not sure of the extent of the injury, which came a week after TE Tanner Hudson (pectoral) was lost for the year. The Bengals signed TE Cam Grandy off the Vikings practice squad, Cincinnati's Channel 5's Charlie Clifford reported. "He's somebody we can rely on, somebody we've got a lot of trust in," Taylor said of Grandy. "He was really a make-it roster guy for us."

Raiders | Jack Bech designated to return from injured reserve Mon Oct 26, 04:21 PM
The Raiders designated WR Jack Bech (forearm) to return to practice from injured reserve on Monday. Bech fractured his forearm in late September, head coach Klint Kubiak confirmed at the time.
| Footballguys view: Bech has been out with a broken forearm suffered in the Week 3 victory over the Saints. Bech now has 21 days to practice before he must be added to the 53-man roster. In his second season, Bech caught five passes for 48 yards with a touchdown before suffering the injury. As a rookie in 2025, Bech caught 20 passes for 224 yards. With a lack of high-end depth at wideout, Bech, an excellent blocker, could resume a contributing role in short order. |

Raiders | Kirk Cousins remains starter; Mendoza will play 'at some point,' not this week Mon Oct 26, 03:54 PM
Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak opened his press conference on Monday by saying, before anyone could ask, that QB Kirk Cousins is the team's starter. "Fernando is going to play at some point, but it's not going to be this week," Kubiak said of QB Fernando Mendoza. Kubiak also said Cousins is playing at a very high level.
| Footballguys view: Through seven games, Cousins has thrown for 1,877 yards, a league-leading 16 touchdowns, and five interceptions. He has thrown seven TDs in the past four games (all losses) after nine in the first three (all wins). But Cousins is not this team's biggest problem, and Kubiak knows that. It doesn't mean the Raiders won't make a switch at some point. But all indications are that the team would like to hold off on throwing Mendoza into the fray as long as possible. |

Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown not expected to practice Wednesday Mon Oct 26, 03:51 PM
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is not expected to practice on Wednesday after coming out of Sunday's win over the Packers with an ankle injury, head coach Dan Campbell said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Campbell said there was optimism that St. Brown would be able to play in Sunday's home game against the Vikings, but that the wideout's practice work would be managed to keep him on track. St. Brown had nine catches for 153 yards while playing 78 percent of the offensive snaps. We'll follow this situation closely as the week progresses. |

Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson held out of Monday's bonus practice as Patriots manage veterans Mon Oct 26, 03:36 PM

| Footballguys view: TE Hunter Henry, CB Marcus Jones, DE Dre'Mont Jones, LB Christian Elliss, LB Robert Spillane, S Kevin Byard, and OT Morgan Moses were also absent. We'll keep a close eye on practice reports when the team gets back on the field Wednesday. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson in 'decent spot' to play Week 8 at Bills, more known Wednesday Mon Oct 26, 03:08 PM
Ravens head coach Jesse Minter said on Monday that QB Lamar Jackson will be in a "decent spot" as far as playing Sunday in Buffalo, but the team will know more about Jackson's status on Wednesday, ESPN's Jamison Hensley reported.
| Footballguys view: Jackson, who's missed the last three games, returned to work on a limited basis last week. After Friday's practice, Jackson didn't look like a quarterback who was close to full strength, limping to the lectern for his media session. He was also not seen as players walked off the field Friday, which suggests he did not finish practice. Jackson said Friday that he was "heading in the right direction" and the decision would come down to pain tolerance. It's reasonable to hope the improvement continues as preparations to take on the Bills begin. Expect regular updates all week. |

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said on Monday that the team will need to get more information before making any comments on TE Erick All Jr.'s knee injury.
| Footballguys view: All has played a role on offense when healthy, but he's struggled to stay on the field. The Bengals already put Tanner Hudson on injured reserve this season, so depth behind Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample continues to look shaky. We'll continue to watch for more on this. |

Cardinals | WR Jalen Brooks to undergo season-ending wrist surgery Mon Oct 26, 02:35 PM
Cardinals WR Jalen Brooks announced on social media on Monday that he will undergo season-ending wrist surgery.
| Footballguys view: Brooks has taken on an expanded role since the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade moved him up the depth chart. He is tied for fourth on the Cardinals this season with 17 targets. Without Brooks, the Cardinals have five active wide receivers and two more on the practice squad. Michael Wilson (37), Kendrick Bourne (25), and Reggie Virgil (2) are the only members of that group with a catch this season. The other receivers are Devin Duvernay, Simi Fehoko, Shedrick Jackson (on the practice squad), and Harrison Wallace III (also on the practice squad). |

Jets | Aaron Glenn calls Garrett Wilson sideline outburst 'overblown' Mon Oct 26, 01:15 PM
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said on Monday that WR Garrett Wilson's sideline outburst during Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Dolphins was "overblown" by the media. It was Glenn's first comment on the incident. Glenn added that "it's going to get noisy" for the Jets.
| Footballguys view: CBS cameras caught a frustrated Wilson, targeted only three times, screaming in the direction of Geno Smith. Afterward, Wilson said he wasn't directing his ire at Smith. The target appeared to be passing-game coordinator Seth Ryan, who was seated next to the QB. "We were collaborating," said Wilson, who finished with only two catches for 26 yards, one week after a quiet game against the Patriots. The coaches spoke about the importance of getting Wilson involved in the offense, and yet it took until the third quarter before he was targeted. |

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that he doesn't anticipate WR Stefon Diggs taking on a larger role with WR Terry McLaurin out.
| Footballguys view: Quinn indicated the change will come with usage elsewhere and mentioned rookie WR Antonio Williams. TE Chig Okonkwo and WR Treylon Burks are also candidates to do more. McLaurin suffered a torn patellar tendon and is done for the season. |

Commanders | Treylon Burks expected to be limited at start of practice week Mon Oct 26, 01:03 PM
Commanders WR Treylon Burks is expected to be limited in practice at the start of this week, according to head coach Dan Quinn's comments on Monday. Washington returns from its bye week.
| Footballguys view: Burks move up in the rotation after Terry McLaurin went down with a knee injury during the team's Week 6 game. Burks drew six targets coming off the bench in that game, and he could continue playing a more significant role with McLaurin out for the season. We'll follow up on his status as the week progresses. In the meantime, proactively adding Burks is a good idea if there's room on your roster for a speculative play. |
