Savaiinaea (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, David reports.David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel

Savaiinaea injured his ankle during the Dolphins' Week 5 loss to the Bengals. The second-year offensive lineman had extra time to recover thanks to the Week 6 bye, and given his ability to practice in full Wednesday, Savaiinaea should start at right guard against the Jets on Sunday.

Jefferson (hip) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Jefferson left the Browns' contest versus the Ravens in Week 6 early with a hip injury, but it looks like he'll be good to go for Week 7. Through two games in 2026, all 34 of his snaps have come on special teams.

The Steelers released Jenkins on Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Jenkins started the regular season at strong safety before being benched for Robert Spears-Jennings in Week 5. The veteran defensive back was likely seen as expendable, with DeShon Elliott (knee) set to return from IR soon and reclaim his starting role at strong safety.

Moses (foot) is questionable to play Thursday versus the Bears.

Moses was remained limited all week as he nurses a foot injury that he suffered in Week 6 against the Jets, and his status for Week 7 is uncertain as a result. If he is ultimately unable to go, Caleb Lomu would stand to draw the start at right tackle against Chicago on Thursday Night Football.

Canada (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bears.

Canada, Carlton Davis (neck) and Karon Prunty (hamstring) will all be sidelined for Thursday night's contest, which leaves Christian Gonzalez and Charles Woods as the starters at outside cornerback while Kindle Vildor and Elliott Davison provide depth. It will be the fourth consecutive game that Canada will miss due to a hamstring injury, and his next chance to return is Week 8 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 1.

Prunty (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Chicago.

Prunty will be sidelined for a third-straight game due to a hamstring injury that he picked up during the Patriots' Week 4 win over the Bills. With Carlton Davis (neck) and Channing Canada (hamstring) also ruled out, Charles Woods and Christian Gonzalez will serve as the Patriots' starting outside cornerbacks for Thursday night's game while Elliott Davison and Kindle Vildor provide depth at the position. Prunty's next chance to play is Week 8 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 1.

Defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard praised Igbinosun's play earlier this week and plans to keep giving the rookie a good amount of playing time, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. Said Leonard, "I think what he's done the last couple weeks, he's definitely earned a high majority of the snaps at the corner position. I know what I'm getting, play in and play out."

Igbinosun, a second-round rookie out of Ohio State, has seen 64 or more percent of the defensive snaps in each of the past three games as he continues to make his mark at the NFL level. That's more than teammate Maxwell Hairston in each of the past two, so IGB may be working his way into a starter's role opposite star corner Christian Benford. Igbinosun had seven total tackles in Week 6, and he had three passes defensed in the Week 7 win over the Raiders.

Jackson (hip/quadricep) does not have any injury designation ahead of Thursday night's game against the Patriots.

Jackson picked up multiple injuries in the Bears' Week 6 win over the Falcons. The offensive guard was able to upgrade his practice participation in every session during the team's short turnaround ahead of Thursday Night Football and is all set to suit up for the contest against the Patriots.

Mausi (undisclosed) had his 21-day practice window opened by the Titans on Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official website reports.

Mausi has been on injured reserve since late August while dealing with an undisclosed injury, but he was able to log a full practice Wednesday, per Wyatt. The linebacker could return to action as soon as Sunday versus the Browns, but he'll have to prove his health at the team's final two practices of the week first.

Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bears.

Brown injured his knee during the fourth quarter of Sunday's 26-19 win over the Jets. He was held out of all three practices during Week 7 prep, and with both Brown and Alijah Vera-Tucker (hamstring) sidelined Thursday, the Patriots will likely turn to Matt Pryor and Walter Rouse to serve as the starting guards against Chicago. Brown will aim to recover enough to return for Week 8 against Miami on Sunday, Nov. 1.
