Availability: Active means on the named game-day roster, not a snap guarantee. Inactive means not playing in that named game. Emergency QB has conditional entry restrictions. Available means not carrying a current out, doubtful or questionable designation in the checked evidence; it does not establish final game-day active status. Pending means clearance for the upcoming game is unconfirmed. Reserve and practice-squad players have distinct roster restrictions. Elevated means added for the specified game.
Earlier roster snapshot: Practice squad: Tanner Hudson (TE); Sean Clifford (QB); Josh Johnson (QB); Kentrel Bullock (RB); Jordan Moore (WR); Noah Thomas (WR). A practice-squad listing does not establish a game-day elevation.
