Michael Moore· Oct 16, 2026
Running through the Week 6 injury report, Moore calls several notable players unlikely to suit up — Breece Hall, Kenyon Sadiq, Roschon Monangai, Quinshon Judkins, Jeremiyah Love, Rashee Rice, D.J. Moore and Lamar Jackson — while expecting Jalen Coker and DeVonta Smith back on the field, and backups Woody Marks, Tony Pollard and Tyler Allgeier handling starter duties.
“While Hall is getting some practice reps in, he's not back to full strength and shouldn't be counted on to play in Week 6.”
