Mason Taylor: Ruled out for Week 3
Friday, September 25, 2026 11:17 AM
Taylor (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Detroit.
Taylor reportedly is viewed as week-to-week after injuring his thumb during a Week 2 loss to the Packers. His absence should free up more playing time for rookie Kenyon Sadiq, but the Jets may also distribute some of Taylor's usual snaps to reserve tight ends Jeremy Ruckert and Jelani Woods.

Adonai Mitchell: Limited in Friday's practice
Friday, September 25, 2026 11:15 AM
Mitchell (finger) will be limited in Friday's practice, according to the Jets' official X account.
With Mitchell now limited in back-to-back practices due to the finger issue, it's possible he receives an injury designation for the Week 3 matchup with Detroit. The Jets' final injury report Friday afternoon will reveal Mitchell's status.

Nico Collins: Status 'very much in doubt'
Friday, September 25, 2026 9:15 AM
Collins (hamstring) is "very much in doubt" for Sunday's game against the Colts, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Another missed practice for Collins on Thursday left his Week 3 availability very much up in the air, and Rapoport's comments indicate it's more likely than not Collins will miss a second straight game. Another official update on Collins will be come when the Texans release their final injury report of the week Friday afternoon.

Jayden Daniels: Should avoid injured reserve
Friday, September 25, 2026 9:10 AM
Commanders GM Adam Peters, via JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington, said Friday morning that "as of right now surgery is not on the table" for Jayden Daniels (elbow) and that the team "has not discussed" placing him on injured reserve.
Head coach Dan Quinn said earlier in the week that Daniels would miss Week 3 due to the elbow injury he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, and he could miss more time, but the comments from Peters indicate the Commanders are confident Daniels will be back within four weeks. Marcus Mariota is slated to be the quarterback for Washington until Daniels returns to the field.

MarShawn Lloyd: Limited to 18 total yards in loss
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:52 AM
Lloyd rushed four times for 11 yards and brought in two of three targets for seven yards in the Packers' 35-14 loss to the Falcons on Thursday.
The inefficiency reflected in Lloyd's final line underscores the type of season it's been so far for the second-year back, who's tried in vain to serve as a serviceable replacement for Josh Jacobs (personal) while he remains on the Commissioner's Exempt List. Lloyd's rushing opportunities were limited Thursday largely due to game script, but the 2024 third-round pick is averaging just 3.0 yards per carry through three games and has complemented it with an unremarkable 4-13-0 line through the air. Lloyd, Chris Brooks and Kaleb Johnson will continue to share the Packers' backfield workload in a Week 4 road matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 4.

Kyle Pitts: Limited to one catch in win
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:46 AM
Pitts secured one of two targets for five yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Pitts' slow start persisted Thursday despite Michael Penix making his season debut and taking the reins of the offense from the ineffective duo of Cooper Rush and Jack Strand. Pitts has managed just two receptions for 20 yards on six targets through three games, but given how sharp Penix looked right out of the gate Thursday, the duo is bound to start clicking in coming games as they've done previously.

Tucker Kraft: Modest production with four catches
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:42 AM
Kraft secured four of eight targets for 26 yards in the Packers' 35-14 loss to the Falcons on Thursday. He also recovered a fumble.
Kraft finished third in targets and catches on the night for the Packers, but in uncharacteristic fashion, the field-stretching tight end was limited to a short-area role. He made an impressively rapid recovery from last year's torn ACL, which he suffered Week 9 of the 2025 campaign, to open the season in his customary No. 1 tight end role. However, he's mustered a modest a 9-106-0 line on 17 targets through three games heading into a Week 4 road matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 4.

Trey Smack: Has kick blocked
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:40 AM
Smack went 0-for-1 on field-goal tries and 2-for-2 on extra-point attempts in Thursday's 35-14 loss to the Falcons.
The kicker's 47-yard attempt in the second quarter was blocked. It was Smack's first miss on a field-goal try this season, and it probably wasn't his fault. The rookie has, however, missed an extra point as well.

Nick Folk: Makes all five kicks Thursday
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:33 AM
Folk hit both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in Thursday's 35-14 win over the Packers.
The kicker did his job during the blowout win, with his longest field goal connecting from 44 yards out. Folk missed three field goals across Atlanta's first two games, both losses, but he bounced back Thursday night. If the Falcons can keep scoring, he is a viable fantasy option.

Brian Robinson: Gets into end zone in win
Friday, September 25, 2026 12:32 AM
Robinson rushed 10 times for 50 yards and a touchdown and returned two kickoffs for 54 yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Robinson's backfield mate Bijan Robinson and No. 1 receiver Drake London stole the show Thursday while accruing 194 yards apiece, but Brian had his own moment in the spotlight when he capped off a 10-play, 92-yard drive in the third quarter with a seven-yard touchdown run. Brian Robinson now has back-to-back games with double-digit carries and has at least 50 rushing yards in each, keeping him somewhat relevant in very deep formats heading into a Week 4 road matchup against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.
