Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (thigh) and CB Joey Porter Jr. (ankle) were again full participants on Tuesday, matching Monday's estimated report from a walkthrough.
| Footballguys view: Both players were injured in Sunday's win over the Texans and appear on track to play in Thursday's game against the Buccaneers. CB Cobie Durant (hamstring), LB DeMarvion Overshown (hamstring) and OT Drew Shelton (hamstring) were again non-participants. OG Tyler Smith (thumb) was limited again after the Cowboys opened his 21-day return-to-practice window on Monday. RB Tyler Goodson (ankle), S Alijah Clark (ankle), S Malik Hooker (forearm) and OLB James Houston (shoulder) remained full participants. The Cowboys will release their final injury report for Thursday night's game on Wednesday. |

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey, who has already played through a cracked rib this season, is day-to-day with a foot injury, head coach Jim Harbaugh said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: In addition, S Derwin James Jr. (hamstring) is week-to-week but is expected to stay off injured reserve, and CB Donte Jackson (hamstring) is also week-to-week. Tackle Rashawn Slater sustained a high ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks and is a candidate for IR, while tackle Joe Alt (neck) is still being evaluated but is less likely to be placed on IR. Harbaugh said WR Brenen Thompson (quad), TE Charlie Kolar, guard Kayode Awosika (fibula) and DT Dalvin Tomlinson (hamstring) are "all making good progress." The Chargers play the Broncos in Week 5. |

Packers RB Chris Brooks is still having his injured ankle evaluated, head coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday, leaving his status open-ended.
| Footballguys view: This situation is worth watching, as Brooks was out-snapping MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson through four weeks before he was hurt against the Buccaneers. If Brooks is out, look for Green Bay to elevate running back Pierre Strong Jr. from the practice squad. |

Broncos CB Pat Surtain II suffered a short-term ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported.
| Footballguys view: Surtain is "week-to-week," and one source believes he will be sidelined for about two weeks, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported. CB Jahdae Barron came in for Surtain on Sunday, and it remains to be seen whether either injured player will be placed on short-term injured reserve |

Buccaneers S Antoine Winfield Jr. has a fractured rib that will keep him out for 2-to-4 weeks, head coach Todd Bowles said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Winfield, a Pro Bowler last season, has 24 total tackles and one QB hit this season. Bowles also said LB SirVocea Dennis is still undergoing tests on his ankle injury to determine its severity. Tampa Bay visits the Cowboys on Thursday night in Week 5. |

Broncos CB Pat Surtain II left Sunday's 24-14 loss to the 49ers with an ankle injury and did not return, but he is believed to have avoided a serious long-term injury. CB Riley Moss also left the game with a rib injury and did not return. WR Pat Bryant left the game on a cart.

Broncos CB Patrick Surtain II limped off the field with a non-contact ankle injury suffered in coverage during Sunday's game against the 49ers. CB Jahdae Barron replaced him, and at the start of the second half, Barron and CB Kris Abrams-Draine were the Broncos' starting outside cornerbacks. CB Riley Moss was ruled questionable to return with a rib injury.

Bills WR DJ Moore is good to go for Sunday's game against the Patriots. He was limited in practice again on Friday, but he doesn't have a game status. Moore was also limited on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Moore played through this AC joint sprain last week, and there's no reason to think he won't again this week. Moore is one of the toughest players in the league, regularly playing through injuries. He's been a focal point of the Bills' passing attack when he's been on the field. Start him as a WR2. |

Bills WR Keon Coleman (ankle) should be "good to go" for Sunday's game against the Patriots, head coach Joe Brady said on Friday. RB Ray Davis (hamstring) and CB Christian Benford (toe) are questionable, and DT T.J. Sanders is doubtful.
| Footballguys view: Coleman missed Wednesday's practice, logged a limited day on Thursday, and was cleared after Friday's practice. That's about the best-case scenario you can hope for. Coleman had one of the best games of his young career in Week 2, catching all six of his targets for 63 yards. His next game was cut short by this ankle injury, but he's "good to go" for Week 4. He's a shaky WR4, but he has upside if desperate fantasy managers are looking for it. |

The Steelers are finalizing a trade that sends CB Joey Porter Jr. to the Cowboys, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported on Wednesday. Pittsburgh will receive a second-round pick and a conditional sixth-round pick, Jordan Schultz reported.
| Footballguys view: Porter missed training camp on the PUP list with a back issue amid the lack of a long-term extension, and although he returned to practice ahead of Week 1, he did not play in any of Pittsburgh's first three games. He had already been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Browns and has three career interceptions in three seasons. |

Bears QB Caleb Williams was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report, as the team held only a walkthrough. Williams has a Grade 2 hamstring strain.

Panthers CB Mike Jackson (groin) was getting imaging on Monday, head coach Dave Canales said. Canales did not offer a timeline when asked if Jackson could be out long term.
| Footballguys view: Jackson was ruled out of Sunday's loss to the Browns after suffering the injury. The injury comes as CB Jaycee Horn is also set to miss significant time. The Panthers play the Lions this week. Look for Detroit to exploit the personnel changes stemming from these injuries. |
Mike Jackson player page
Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey has a wrist injury, and it is too early to tell if he will be available for Thursday's game at the Browns, head coach Mike McCarthy said on Monday.
| Footballguys view: McCarthy said that based on Ramsey's history, he knows Ramsey will do everything he can to be ready to go. Ramsey was seen wearing a sling after Sunday's win over the Bengals. |

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren had his best game of the season with RB Rico Dowdle out injured, going well over 100 scrimmage yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Bengals, including a 30-yard reception on the first drive and a 35-yard run that set up a field goal. All in all, Warren gained 127 yards on 17 carries and 49 yards on three receptions (four targets).
| Footballguys view: Warren shredded a Bengals run defense that looked like an elite unit against the Texans in Week 2. He will only get a few days to recoup before the Steelers travel to Cleveland on Thursday, but that also means Dowdle is unlikely to be ready. Consider Warren a high-ceiling RB2 for Week 4. |

Titans RB Tyjae Spears is active for Sunday's Week 3 game against the Giants after being listed as questionable. CB Cor'Dale Flott, a former Giant who was also listed as questionable, is active as well. The Titans elevated RB Michael Carter on Saturday with Spears' status in doubt.

Browns QB Deshaun Watson had his "best week" of practice heading into Sunday's home game against the Panthers. Browns S Grant Delpit (shoulder) says he will play on Sunday. Panthers LB Devin Lloyd has been ruled out for the game.
| Footballguys view: Well, we'll just have to wait and see about this whole 'best week' stuff when it comes to Watson. He is coming off a good game, as Watson completed 24 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns in the Browns' win against the Buccaneers. Against the Panthers in Week 3, Watson is a low-end QB2 for Fantasy GMs. That makes him an option only in start-2QB/Superflex leagues. |
