Baltimore Ravens
Flowers day to day; Lane needs further evaluation
Zay Flowers · Day to day Ja’Kobi Lane · Wrist fracture reported

Updated in this edition. Jesse Minter described Flowers as day to day Monday after his hamstring exit. Lane faces a potentially longer absence; Baltimore is gathering further medical opinions, and the team report attributes a fractured wrist to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. Neither update supplies a final Week 2 game designation.

Fantasy impact: Keep a replacement available for Flowers. Bateman, Walker and Sarratt are names to watch if the receiver group is short, but no replacement has been promised a full target share.

Minnesota Vikings
Murray remains in concussion protocol
Kyler Murray · Concussion protocol Carson Wentz · Week 2 contingency

Updated in this edition. Kevin O’Connell said Monday that Kyler Murray remains in concussion protocol after leaving Sunday’s game. Minnesota has not settled its Week 2 starter. Carson Wentz led four touchdown drives in relief, and the team’s report explains why he was the second quarterback.

Fantasy impact: Have a playable alternative to Murray. Wentz is the relevant contingency to monitor, while Sunday’s emergency designation for J.J. McCarthy should not be mistaken for a new starting announcement.

Seattle Seahawks
Darnold’s injury clarified; return date remains open
Sam Darnold · Return date unconfirmed

Updated in this edition. Seattle’s Monday update identifies a glute soft-tissue injury, with the hip joint unaffected. The team considers it short term but has not supplied a firm return timeline. This replaces the earlier description of an unresolved hip problem.

Fantasy impact: Keep a quarterback alternative ready, particularly in superflex leagues. Drew Lock remains the contingency from the previous edition; do not turn “short term” into a confirmed Week 2 return.

New England Patriots
Henderson’s next work remains an evaluation point
TreVeyon Henderson · Work planned; reassess

Updated in this edition. Mike Vrabel said Monday that TreVeyon Henderson and Ben Brown would probably try some work that day before further assessment. The coach’s expectation does not confirm completed practice participation or game clearance.

Fantasy impact: Check the next published participation report before changing a lineup. Keep a backfield alternative available while Henderson’s workload remains unresolved.

Cleveland Browns
Sampson evaluation continues; Watson expected to start
Dylan Sampson · Wednesday update expected Deshaun Watson · Expected Week 2 starter

Updated in this edition. Todd Monken said Monday that Dylan Sampson’s knee injury is still being evaluated and more information is expected Wednesday. The Browns also identify Deshaun Watson as their expected Week 2 starter. Zion Johnson returned during Sunday’s game, with a further assessment expected when practice resumes.

Fantasy impact: Do not assign Sampson an absence length before the next report. Keep backfield contingency plans flexible; the quarterback announcement does not by itself raise the receiving group’s weekly floor.

Denver Broncos
Monday inactive list confirmed
Tyler Badie · Monday inactive Marvin Mims Jr. · Monday active list

Updated in this edition. Denver’s official Monday scratches are Tyler Badie, Dallen Bentley, Kage Casey, Jordan Jackson, Tyler Onyedim and emergency third quarterback Sam Ehlinger. No player was ruled out due to injury. Marvin Mims Jr. is not on that inactive list after clearing the injury report.

Fantasy impact: The old “Monday inactives pending” note is resolved. This is game-day availability, not a live injury or workload update; assess the completed game before treating an active player as a reliable Week 2 option.

Kansas City Chiefs
Mahomes, Rice and Worthy clear Monday’s inactive list
Patrick Mahomes · Monday active list Rashee Rice · Monday active list Xavier Worthy · Monday active list

Updated in this edition. Kansas City’s official inactives are Jared Wiley, Garrett Nussmeier (third quarterback), Chamarri Conner, Jack Pyburn, Diego Pounds, Josh Simmons and Bryson Eason. Patrick Mahomes, Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy are not among them.

Fantasy impact: The pregame availability question is settled. These labels describe the opening active group, not health throughout the game or final usage. Simmons’ absence remains relevant when assessing protection.

Las Vegas Raiders
Tight-end recovery watch
Brock Bowers · Day to day

Updated in this edition. NFL.com reports that Klint Kubiak called Brock Bowers day to day Monday following a meniscus trim.

Fantasy impact: Keep a tight-end alternative available. This is an update on recovery, not clearance for the next game; wait for practice participation and the final designation before restoring a player to a locked lineup.

Los Angeles Chargers
McConkey day to day; Lambert-Smith may miss time
Ladd McConkey · Day to day KeAndre Lambert-Smith · Expected to miss time

Updated in this edition. Jim Harbaugh said Monday that Ladd McConkey has a rib injury and is day to day. KeAndre Lambert-Smith has a hamstring injury and is expected to miss time, although no IR decision was announced. Elijah Molden is also day to day with a hamstring issue.

Fantasy impact: Prepare receiver depth without treating McConkey as already ruled out. The next practice reports should guide decisions; extra opportunity elsewhere in the offense is not yet a guaranteed target allocation.

Dallas Cowboys
Sunday inactive list closes the Abanikanda question
Israel Abanikanda · Inactive Sunday

Updated in this edition. Israel Abanikanda was listed among Dallas’ Sunday inactives by the Week 1 inactive tracker. His earlier move onto the roster did not make him a game-day fantasy option.

Fantasy impact: Do not carry the earlier emergency-option suggestion forward. A roster signing and an active-game role are separate decisions; check the next active list before considering depth backs.

New York Giants
Nabers’ Sunday availability question was resolved
Malik Nabers · Active Sunday Najee Harris · Inactive Sunday

Updated in this edition. Malik Nabers was active for Sunday night after entering the weekend questionable. Najee Harris, Dalen Cambre and Thomas Fidone II were among New York’s inactive players. The earlier advice to wait for the Sunday-night list has expired.

Fantasy impact: Nabers’ active status answers the Week 1 roster question. It does not establish an unrestricted workload or clear him for Week 2. Use the next practice report when setting a new lineup.

Detroit Lions
Pacheco faces extended absence; line under watch
Isiah Pacheco · Extended absence Blake Miller · Walkthrough non-participant

Updated in this edition. Dan Campbell confirmed Monday that Isiah Pacheco had back surgery and faces an extended absence. Detroit’s report attributes a possible 12-week recovery to Ian Rapoport; that is an estimate. On Monday’s estimated walkthrough report, Blake Miller and Christian Mahogany were non-participants, Juice Scruggs was limited and Christian Izien was full.

Fantasy impact: Gibbs remains central to the backfield plan, but the short week and offensive-line health matter. A walkthrough estimate is not a final game designation. Avoid planning around an exact Pacheco return week.

Carolina Panthers
Coker describes precautionary boot after ankle injury
Jalen Coker · Ankle follow-up

Updated in this edition. Jalen Coker said Monday that the boot on his left foot was precautionary after he rolled his ankle Sunday and played through it. He expects not to miss time; that is the player’s expectation, not an official Week 2 clearance.

Fantasy impact: Keep him on the practice-report watch list. Finishing a game does not settle the following week’s availability.

Los Angeles Rams
Defense availability watch
Myles Garrett · Return timeline unknown

Updated in this edition. Sean McVay has no firm return timetable for Myles Garrett following knee surgery, NFL.com reports.

Fantasy impact: Account for the pass-rush uncertainty when evaluating the Rams defense. Avoid treating the earliest possible return as a recovery promise, and recheck availability before committing to this defense.

San Francisco 49ers
Receiver availability watch
De’Zhaun Stribling · Month-plus absence reported

Updated in this edition. NFL Network reports De’Zhaun Stribling will miss at least a month with an ankle sprain.

Fantasy impact: Treat this as an attributed recovery estimate, not a guaranteed return date. Short-bench managers need an available replacement; deeper leagues can weigh a stash. This report does not settle the separate Jake Tonges question.
