Injury Report2026 NFL Week 3

Published Friday, September 25, 2026

Who is out, who is questionable, and the pivot for each before lineups lock. Researched live by AI from that week's news, so verify before you act.

Out or Doubtful

  • Puka Nacua (WR, LAR). Doubtful, hip. Nacua has not practiced this week, and McVay added they expect Nacua to be ready to return next week. Pivot: Davante Adams (WR, LAR), he is the target hog again versus Denver.
  • Rico Dowdle (RB, PIT). Out, toe. Pivot: Jaylen Warren (RB, PIT), who saw his snaps climb to 71% in Week 2 and should approach 20 touches.
  • Nico Collins (WR, HOU). Ruled out by the Houston Texans as he deals with a Grade 1 hamstring strain. Pivot: Sam Darnold (QB, SEA) for QB streamers, he was off the injury report on Friday.
  • Caleb Williams (QB, CHI). Out for Monday night, hamstring. There's a shot the Eagles could be facing Chicago's third-stringer, Case Keenum, as the primary backup deals with a concussion. Pivot: downgrade all Bears pass catchers one tier.

Questionable

  • Jaylen Warren (RB, PIT). Limited all week, shoulder, but the Steelers RBs coach Ramon Chinyoung suggested Friday that Warren will play. Start as an RB2.
  • Aaron Jones (RB, MIN). Missed Wednesday, knee, he was at practice on Thursday, so he's trending up. Start.
  • Brock Bowers (TE, LV). Bowers missed practice on Friday, apparently as planned, not because of a setback. Start if active, keep Michael Mayer (TE, LV) as the backup.
  • Jalen Coker (WR, CAR). Limited, ankle, Coker has been dealing with this ankle for a couple of weeks, so if he plays, we'll start him. Flex.

Game-time Decisions

Zay Flowers (WR, BAL) has not practiced all week, so bench him and lean on Rashod Bateman (WR, BAL). Nacua plays Sunday night and Bowers is a warmup call, so fill early slots with safe floors and keep a Sunday afternoon or night pivot on your bench for each.
