The Chiefs placed Smith (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday.

Smith sustained a hamstring injury in Thursday's practice session and has promptly been transitioned to IR as he manages the issue. Running back Jaydn Ott has been signed to the active roster to be the No. 3 option behind Kenneth Walker and Emmett Johnson while Smith recovers.

The Chiefs elevated Watson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Watson is set for consecutive elevations after participating in the Chiefs' Week 6 win over the Chargers. The wide receiver played just one offensive snap in the contest and will likely be treated as a reserve option once again in Week 7 against the Seahawks.

Goedert (knee) said he felt good at Saturday's practice after dealing with inflammation earlier in the week, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Goedert was back on the practice field Saturday after missing the first two sessions of Week 7 prep while dealing with inflammation in his knee. The Eagles still need to submit their injury designations for Monday's game against the Cowboys, but Goedert noted after Saturday's session that he expects to play, per Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer. The veteran tight end's availability is crucial for Philadelphia, given that both of the team's top wide receivers in DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) did not practice all week.

The Chiefs signed Ott from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

The Chiefs placed Brashard Smith (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday in a corresponding move. Smith's injury leaves an opportunity for Ott. The undrafted free agent out of Oklahoma could make his NFL debut during Sunday Night Football as the Chiefs take on the Seahawks in Week 7.

The Titans elevated Osborn from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Osborn signed with the Titans' practice squad in early September but has not yet suited up for an NFL game in 2026. The wide receiver was likely elevated as insurance, set to be active only if Calvin Ridley (hip) cannot play in Sunday's contest due to injury.

The Titans elevated Mullings from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Mullings receives his second elevation after suiting up for the Titans' Week 5 loss to the Texans. The running back played one offensive snap and 15 special-teams snaps in the contest, rushing just once for three yards.

The Dolphins elevated Gonzalez from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

Gonzalez failed to beat out Riley Patterson for the Dolphins' starting role in preseason but has returned to compete with the struggling kicker. The 31-year-old appears set to start Sunday's divisional bout against the Jets. Gonzalez participated in nine regular-season games for the Falcons in 2025, going 19-for-22 on field-goal attempts and 17-for-18 on PATs.

Johnson (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Johnson's lack of participation in Friday's practice session appears to have been indicative of his playing status for Sunday's contest. The tight end will not be able to overcome his neck injury in time for Week 7 and will have to look towards the Giants' Week 9 contest against the Eagles after the bye.

Holland (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Holland entered the NFL's five-step concussion protocol after the Giants' Week 6 loss to the Saints. The safety has not been cleared by an independent neurologist to play in Sunday's game, leaving Ar'Darius Washington to suit up as the starting free safety for the Giants in Week 7.

Delpit (concussion) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.

Delpit was listed as questionable Friday but has cleared concussion protocol before Sunday's contest, as expected. The strong safety is set to suit up next to Ronnie Hickman to anchor the Browns' secondary as the team attempts to maintain its control of the AFC North.
