Tomlin on Kenny Pickett. He has a bone bruise and is scheduled to participate tomorrow and the Steelers will evaluate him from there.

The post went on to quote Tomlin as saying, "The more comfortable and functional is, the more work he'll get." It seems like Pickett has a chance to suit up in Week 5, however there is still a long way to go and it seems far from a sure thing. The Steelers have a bye in Week 6 but sit at 2-2 heading into a game with a division rival in Week 5.

Kenny Pickett's knee injury is bone bruise, and Pickett also has a muscle strain, NFL Media reports.

It is not serious but could lead to a short-term absence, the story said. The Steelers, however, are leaving the door open for Pickett to play this week, per NFL Media, but the fact that they have an off week in Week 6 could play a factor in their decision. If Pickett can't go this week, Trubisky would likely be the Week 5 starter.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett has a knee injury, but the belief is the injury is not season-ending.

Rapoport said Pickett will get an MRI, and they are looking at the MCL and meniscus. His ACL is reportedly in tact. Rapoport added there just isn't a lot of information now but Pickett is going to miss some time with the injury but should return this season. Trubisky will get the start in Week 5, which is an early game at home vs. the Ravens. The Steelers do have a bye in Week 6 before traveling to the the Rams in Week 7.

Jaguars HC Doug Pederson said WR Zay Jones is a "long shot" to play the Falcons Sunday in London with a knee injury.

LB Devin Lloyd won’t travel to London and will miss the next two weeks. He had surgery to put two screws into his thumb yesterday; hope is he returns vs. Colts.

The Jaguars spread the target share out thin in Jones' absence in Week 3 and eventually fell to the Texans by 20 points. Tight end Evan Engram has become much more involved in the passing game over the last two weeks, and could continue to deliver usable fantasy games in London in Week 4.

Cowboys have released RB Ronald Jones, they announced.

There were reports of this leading into Week 2. Jones was suspended for the first two weeks of the season but was able to come back today. However, the Cowboys are set up pretty good at RB with Pollard as the starter and youngsters like Dowdle and Vaughn as a supporting cast. Jones is still 26-years-old himself, and could provide depth on another roster at some point.

WR Zay Jones (knee) is getting further testing today and is considered day to day, HC Doug Pederson told reporters.

Jones didn't record a catch in Week 2 against the Chiefs after a 5-55-1 line in Week 1. After not being a factor in Week 1, Kirk stepped up with a monster game, collecting 11 catches for 110 yards on 14 targets.

An MRI confirmed the Jets’ fears: Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers suffered a complete tear of his left Achilles tendon Monday night, per sources.

It was the biggest fear since the injury happened during the Jets opening drive. HC Robert Saleh has already said the team will ride with Wilson, but it's a huge fantasy downgrade for the Jets WR group. The team could lean more on running backs Cook and Hall and the running game as a whole, as Hall was an obvious bright spot on Monday night. The Jets will likely bring in another quarterback, but for now the team looks primed to ride this out with Wilson at QB - and a very good defense.

But it was Zay Jones, listed third on the team's WR depth chart, who paced all of the club's pass catchers in offensive snaps against the Colts (61).

With five catches on seven targets, including an acrobatic 18-yard touchdown, Jones also finished just behind Calvin Ridley as the Jags' most productive outlet for Trevor Lawrence. What's more, his connection with the young quarterback has been strong dating back to early in the 2022 campaign, Lawrence's first under coach Doug Pederson.

Jones led the way in snaps, but it was Ridley who ended up with the bigger day and an 8-101-1 line. Jones did finish ahead of Kirk who had just a 1-9-0 line and was targeted only three times. The story added Jones could be the go-to target for Lawrence on key downs this season.

The Giants listed WR Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) as doubtful for Sunday's opener vs. Dallas -- and added TE Darren Waller to the injury report with a hamstring. He's questionable.

Related Players: Parris Campbell, Daniel Bellinger

The Giants' under team total is looking pretty enticing right about now. Presumably, the slot role will be pretty well locked down by Parris Campbell while Robinson is on the mend and offers a reasonable floor for very desperate fantasy managers. This is Waller's first stint on the injury report this week, so hopefully, that is more of a precaution.
