  • NFL Player News and Weather Week 8.

    Bucs WR Chris Godwin fractured his index finger and is out for Week 8 against the Giants.

    Cardinals RB Chase Edmonds is expected to be the team's primary ball carrier with Kenyan Drake (ankle) out.

    Seahawks RB Carlos Hyde is dealing with hamstring tightness and is uncertain to play Week 8 against the 49ers.
    Hyde joins Seattle's backfield injury report with Chris Carson, who's week to week with a mid-foot sprain, and Travis Homer, who has a bruised knee. That leaves rookie DeeJay Dallas as the only healthy running back on the roster.

    Lions acquired DE Everson Griffen from the Cowboys in exchange for a conditional 2021 sixth-round pick.
    The move comes one day after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Griffen was on the block. Because of COVID-19 protocols, Griffen cannot make his Lions debut until Week 9.

      Panthers coach Matt Rhule is "hopeful" Christian McCaffrey (ankle) will be ready for Thursday's game against the Falcons.
      Unsurprisingly, Rhule said how McCaffrey's ankle responds to Tuesday's practice on Wednesday will be key. "He looks like he’s moving around great. Just we’ll let the medical people and him determine how much he can do, or when he can play in a game. It won't be a minute too early. We'll be smart." Most signs are pointing toward a McCaffrey return

        Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.
        He's dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain after missing several weeks with an ankle injury.

            Aaron Jones (calf) remained sidelined at Wednesday's practice.
            Coach Matt LaFleur suggested the Packers are going to remain cautious with Jones after they got by with ease against the Texans

            Andy Dalton (concussion) is not practicing Wednesday.
            Dalton is in the concussion protocol after taking a wallop from Jon Bostic in Week 7. If Dalton can't go against the Eagles this Sunday, it'll either be rookie Ben DiNucci or Garrett Gilbert under center for the Cowboys.

            Allen Robinson is in the league's concussion protocol.
            Robinson exited late in the fourth quarter of Monday night's loss to the Rams after getting his head driven into the turf face-first. On a short week ahead of a Sunday afternoon tilt against the Saints, Robinson will have to quickly progress through the protocol to gain clearance.

                49ers WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) is out for Week 8 against the Seahawks.

                Miles Sanders (knee) won't play in Week 8 against the Cowboys.

                Michael Thomas (hamstring, ankle) was ruled out for Week 8 against the Bears.

                Ravens RB Mark Ingram (ankle) is doubtful for Week 8 against the Steelers.

                    49ers activated RB Tevin Coleman (knee) from injured reserve ahead of Week 8 against the Seahawks.
                    This means Coleman will be available Sunday for the first time since September 20.

                      Andy Dalton (concussion) was downgraded to out for Week 8 against the Eagles.
                      Ben DiNucci will serve as the starter with Garrett Gilbert as backup.

                      Giants RB Devonta Freeman (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Bucs.
                      That means Wayne Gallman should inherit the 15-plus touches Freeman has seen in his last three full games played.

                      Allen Robinson (concussion) will play in Week 8 against the Saints.
                      This was expected after Robinson was originally listed as questionable. Robinson missed practice all week but cleared the concussion protocol and will start against the Saints.

                      Eagles activated TE Dallas Goedert (ankle) from injured reserve.
                      Goedert opened the week on the wrong side of questionable but showed enough in practice to get cleared.

                          NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports Vikings RB Dalvin Cook is expected to play "with a full workload" in Week 8 against the Packers.

                            ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Seahawks RB Chris Carson (foot) is "a true 50-50" to play in Week 8 against the 49ers.
                            Schefter added that Carson "is expected to test how he feels in pre-game warmups." He remains a game-time decision. Carlos Hyde (hamstring, doubtful) and Travis Homer (knee, questionable) are also considered game-time decisions.
