- Ralph VentreAvailability Calls · Christian BenfordPendingVentre expects Christian Benford's toe injury to sideline him for at least the Week 4 game against New England, and believes the Bills will have to add a cornerback to the 53-man roster this week — likely by moving Benford to injured reserve — with practice squad rookie Kani Walker the most likely player elevated.
- Fox SportsAvailability Calls · Jayden DanielsPendingWith surgery ruled out, Washington's outlet speculates Jayden Daniels avoids injured reserve and, if he isn't back for the Week 4 game in London, returns either in Week 5 against the Giants or Week 6 against the 49ers.
- Jordan DajaniAvailability Calls · Baker MayfieldPendingDajani writes that, based on the injury timeline, Baker Mayfield should be available to return for Tampa Bay's Oct. 25 game against the Carolina Panthers.
- Evan TarraccianoAvailability Calls · Garrett WilsonPendingIn his Week 3 studs and duds recap, Tarracciano says Drake London becomes a mid-tier WR1 now that Michael Penix Jr. is back, maintains Chase Brown should still be ranked as an RB1 despite a slow start, and expects Garrett Wilson to be fine after a concussion evaluation and play in Week 4.
- Kelly KirbyAvailability Calls · Breece HallPendingKirby suggested Breece Hall's leg injury casts doubt on whether he will be available for the Jets in Week 4, making Braelon Allen a priority pickup.
- Greg AumanAvailability Calls · Justin JeffersonPendingAuman expects Baker Mayfield's thumb injury to push undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels into the Buccaneers' starting quarterback job, and says Justin Jefferson may avoid missing time and play the following week against Miami.
