Week 9’s injury picture is led by Baltimore’s depleted quarterback room and a series of unresolved questions in Cleveland and Seattle. Across the league, practice participation offers clues, but many teams listed players without a game designation; those entries don’t settle who will play.

The report was updated 2026-11-06 01:00 UTC. DNP means Did Not Practice, LP means Limited Practice and FP means Full Practice. The table below reflects the practice days shown for each team; reporting schedules vary across the week.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Baltimore Ravens · Thu 8:15 PM ET

Baltimore’s quarterback situation is the clearest headline: Lamar Jackson (right thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) each missed all three listed practices and are marked out. Jaylinn Hawkins, dealing with a knee injury, is also out after three DNPs. Adam Randall is questionable despite full participation each day, as is Nate Wiggins, who went from two full practices to a DNP with a stinger/illness.

Several Ravens finished the week with full practices after limited work, including Roquan Smith (foot), Trey Hendrickson (finger/ribs), Ronnie Stanley (rest/toe/ankle) and Justice Hill (groin). Mark Andrews and Matthew Hibner practiced fully throughout. For Jacksonville, Bhayshul Tuten (ankle/foot) went DNP all three days and Travon Walker (rib) progressed to limited work; both are questionable. Antonio Johnson, Branson Combs, Chris Rodriguez Jr., Ezra Cleveland, Jakobi Meyers and Jarrian Jones were limited throughout, with no game designation.

Cincinnati Bengals at Atlanta Falcons · Sun 9:30 AM ET

Cincinnati’s report has no game designations. Kyle Dugger missed both listed practices with a quadricep issue, while Jordan Battle was limited twice with a hamstring injury. DJ Turner II moved from DNP to full practice with a heel issue. Atlanta’s listed players also carry no designation: Zachariah Branch missed both sessions with a hamstring injury, and Brian Robinson and Yasir Abdullah were limited twice with hamstring issues. Beaux Collins, Billy Bowman Jr. and Cameron Williams practiced fully both days.

Cleveland Browns at New Orleans Saints · Sun 1:00 PM ET

Cleveland’s most consequential uncertainty is at quarterback. Deshaun Watson missed both listed practices with a concussion, and a Nov. 4 report said he entered the concussion protocol, with Shedeur Sanders next in line to start against New Orleans. Watson has no game designation in this report, so the practice table alone doesn’t confirm the starter. Maliek Collins (elbow) also missed both sessions; Quincy Williams (hamstring) went from DNP to limited. Elgton Jenkins, Jared Verse and Myles Harden finished with full practices after earlier limitations.

For New Orleans, Alvin Kamara was DNP on Wednesday and limited Thursday with rest/back listed. CJ Donaldson (shoulder/concussion) went from limited to DNP.

Caleb Downs (concussion/ankle) improved from DNP to limited, while George Pickens (hamstring) and Tyler Smith (ankle) were limited both days.

Indianapolis had no player with a game designation in the listed report. Akeem Davis-Gaither (knee) and Justin Walley (knee) were DNP twice; Andrew Ogletree (knee) moved from DNP to limited.

What the practice reports tell us

The strongest confirmed availability news belongs to Baltimore, where both Jackson and Huntley are ruled out. Cleveland and Seattle have quarterback questions that the listed practice entries don’t resolve, while San Francisco’s limited participation from McCaffrey leaves his status worth monitoring. Across the other matchups, repeated DNPs and late-week practice changes highlight the names to watch as teams finalize their game-day decisions.
