Injury Updates Heading into Week 7 of the NFL Season
This week, various cities across the NFL are seeing some big injury news as teams prepare for their matchups. Week 7 brings not only excitement about the games but also the ever-important health status of key players.
In New York, the Jets will welcome back newly signed wide receiver Davante Adams, who has been cleared to play after dealing with a hamstring issue. Meanwhile, in Cleveland, running back Nick Chubb is also good to go after recovering from a knee injury and is set to make his season debut.
Over in Minnesota, the Vikings are monitoring Aaron Jones, who was limited in practice and his status for Sunday remains uncertain. The Colts are facing potential absences in their receiving corps, while Pats fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Stevenson returned to full practice and is likely to play.
For the Jaguars, if Etienne can’t go, Tank Bigsby will step in as the starter. The Seahawks will miss Woolen and Brown, so they will have to rely on Nehemiah Pritchett at cornerback. Walker is also questionable due to a late illness, which could impact Seattle’s offensive game plan.
In Tennessee, Levis is a question mark with a shoulder injury, and if he can’t play, Mason Rudolph will take his place as quarterback. In Buffalo, running back James Cook is ready to go, but there’s uncertainty surrounding Davis. The Bengals appear healthy, with Ivey fully participating in practices leading up to the game.
The Browns are feeling optimistic with Chubb back on the field but will have to wait and see on Pocic, who is a game-time decision. On the other hand, the Dolphins will likely be without Holland, who struggled throughout practice.
The Packers may have to go without Wicks, but they are expecting Watson and Reed to suit up. The Giants are in a tight spot as they could be missing both Burns and Lawrence, their top defensive players.
The Ravens are dealing with injuries to wide receiver Harty who is now on injured reserve, while the Bucs will see Mike Evans play despite missing practice earlier in the week. For the Chargers, a lack of participation from Bosa raises questions about their defense.
This week is crucial as teams assess their options and make final calls on their lineups before the games. With so many key injuries, it could shape the outcomes across the league and make for some interesting matchups come Sunday.
