In other words, the veteran depth piece will not be cut loose with an injury settlement. Going on 29 with increasingly smaller workloads, Edmonds is now in danger of falling out of the league next year.

Nacua has been out since Week 1 with a PCL injury and was placed on injured reserve. Various reports have had him missing lengthy periods of time and now Glazer’s report confirms he is expected to miss at least another month. With Cooper Kupp (ankle) also out, the Rams receiving corps is thin for Week 4 against the Bears and beyond. Demarcus Robinson is the top option, but none of the active Rams wideouts are an exciting play.

Kupp is out as expected, still recovering from an ankle injury suffered in Week 2. The rag-tag group of Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Whittington, and Tyler Johnson will try to pick up the slack with Kupp and Puka Nacua still out.

We wish Wilson the best as the Steelers give him more time to heal from his calf issue than any injury in the history of the league.

No surprises here as Brown, Smith, and Johnson were all ruled out prior to Sunday. The Eagles get their bye next week and none of their injuries are considered long-term issues. They should be at full strength for their Week 6 matchup with the Browns.

McMillan suffered a hamstring injury during Friday’s practice and was listed as doubtful, so his absence today doesn’t come as a surprise. Trey Palmer will take over the WR3 gig for Week 4. Palmer is not on the fantasy radar despite the bump in snaps.

Jones headlines the Bears’ offensive inactives as a healthy scratch for the third straight week. Keenan Allen and Kevin Byard are active despite entering the day questionable while Zacch Pickens (groin) is the most notable defensive inactive for Week 4 against the Rams.

There was some concern when Johnson popped up on the injury report mid-week with a groin injury, but he was not listed among the inactive and is expected to play his normal allotment of snaps. There is a slightly elevated risk of re-injury for Johnson, but he spent extra time practicing with Andy Dalton during the week and should see a large target share with Adam Thielen sidelined. Fire Johnson up in all league types.

Irving missed Thursday’s practice with the hamstring issue but was back on the field for a limited session on Friday. He was listed as questionable but correctly told reporters he expected to play. Irving has excelled as the change-of-pace option for Tampa Bay, averaging 6.2 yards per carry through three games. He ranks as a low-end RB3 for his matchup with the Eagles.

It was an expected absence for Engram, who hasn’t practiced since being a surprise inactive in Week 2 with a hamstring injury. Despite no questionable status being given to him, Lloyd is inactive with a knee injury suffered against the Bills. That puts Jacksonville down its top two linebackers. Gabe Davis (questionable - shoulder) and Tank Bigsby (no status, shoulder) are active.

The 3-0 Vikings enter their divisional matchup against the Packers at nearly full strength. They also have Jordan Addison (ankle) returning after missing the last two weeks. Everything is good to go for the Vikings as they look to push their winning streak to four-straight games.
