McClain, who turns 27 before the season, was welcomed to a soft free agent market, but should retain his starting job in Baltimore. McClain started all 16 games at weak-side linebacker last season. He rotates out too often to be a significant IDP asset, finishing the year with 84 tackles, one sack, and a pick. Pro Football Focus did grade McClain as a solid run stopper.

Kincaid left the game in the second quarter but was able to return early in the third. However, he was hobbling around while on the field and was removed from the game. His status will be one to watch heading into next week’s game against the Chiefs.

The Cardinals’ first-round rookie remained unable to practice this week. The 5-4 Cardinals sit atop the NFC West and could surely use him down the stretch, so hopefully he can begin practicing after the Cardinals’ Week 11 bye. The Cardinals also declared S Jalen Thompson, LB Julian Okwara, OL Christian Jones, TE Travis Vokolek and WR Xavier Weaver inactive. Newly acquired LB Baron Browning will make his debut.

The stud linebacker will miss his third straight game but slot CB Michael Carter II (back) is available and the offensive line will at least be intact. RG Alijah Vera-Tucker (ankle) and LG John Simpson (groin) are both active. The Jets also declared DT Solomon Thomas, OT Carter Warren, RB Izzy Abanikanda and G Jake Hanson inactive.

The Titans, sporting one of the league’s best secondaries, will go into Week 10 without Sneed and Edwards. It’s a potential boon for Justin Herbert and the LA pass catchers in an offense that has been much more pass heavy over the past few weeks.

A long-term absence would be another tough blow for a Bucs team that has had to absorb its fair share of injuries already this year. Wirfs was replaced by Justin Skule against the 49ers and presumably Skule would be the starter going forward if Wirfs — who has played through injuries impressively before — can’t go in Week 11. Wirfs had a 92.5 PFF pass block grade entering today’s game.

The rookie will be a healthy scratch with Gus Edwards back in action for LA. Vidal had seen 11 rushing attempts and some pass game work over the past couple weeks. Those opportunities will likely go to Edwards, as JK Dobbins continues to lead the Chargers backfield.

After missing four games with a high-ankle sprain, Parsons is set to return to the Cowboys in a pivotal Week 10 matchup against the Eagles. Sitting on a 3-5 record, Dallas’ season is already on the brink of disaster. Parson’s return is welcomed by a defense that’s been among the worst in the league for much of this season. While Parsons is active, the Cowboys declared QB Dak Prescott, OT Tyler Guyton, RB Deuce Vaughn, WR Jonathan Mingo, CB DaRon Bland, S Juanyeh Thomas, and DE K.J. Henry inactive for Sunday’s game.

The Eagles will be at near full strength for Sunday’s NFC East matchup against the Cowboys. They’ll also have Dallas Goedert healthy for the first time in nearly a month. Things are looking good for the Birds as they aim to keep pace with the Commanders in the division.

Kincaid left the game late in the second quarter with a knee injury and was ruled questionable to return after he was seen trying to run with a brace on. It looks like the 25-year-old will miss just one drive. The Bills really need him with both Amari Cooper and Keon Coleman out with wrist injuries.

Kincaid suffered the injury late in the second quarter. He came out of the medical tent and tried to run with a brace on before returning to the locker room before the Bills’ final drive of the half. With both Amari Cooper and Keon Coleman out, Kincaid had seen four targets already in the first half and was in store for a heavy workload. The team will look for more out of Dawson Knox while Kincaid is sidelined.
