As a month has passed in the NFL season, the injury reports are starting to pile up with each passing week. Week 5 certainly has its fair share of players on the mend as the fall weather hits and teams are starting to establish themselves as contenders or pretenders.
There are a few big names questionable to play in Sunday’s games, which will be found in the injury report below. Here’s a roundup of all the injuries heading into the Week 5 slate of games:
Good news for the Giants? Daniel Jones is not on this injury report and will start Sunday for New York. Expect Davis Webb to be elevated from the practice squad with Taylor out. With no Golladay or Toney, the Giants will go with David Sills, Richie James, and Darius Slayton as their top-three wide receivers.
For the Packers, Amos will likely come down to the wire, as he remains in concussion protocol. David Bakhtiari (knee) got a rest day Friday, but will play. Allen Lazard (ankle) didn’t receive a game designation, so he’ll play Sunday.
The Bills are banged up in the secondary, as Poyer will miss his second game in three weeks after injuring his ribs in Sunday’s win over Baltimore. Benford hasn’t practiced all week, so it’s not a surprise he’s out. Head coach Sean McDermott said Friday linebacker Tremaine Edmunds (hamstring) and wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (concussion protocol) are “day to day,” so their statuses will come down to the wire.
Clowney did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday and was limited on Friday, after not playing last week, while Bryan was limited all week at practice.
Palmer was a full practice Friday after being limited the rest of the week and Hopkins was limited all week.
The Texans had a lengthy injury report this week, but out of the 13 people listed, Greenard, who did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday and was limited on Friday, is the only question mark. If the starter does not play, that would leave Rasheem Green and Demone Harris as the two options for the position.
Montgomery was limited in Friday’s practice and his status for Sunday could be determined in Saturday’s walkthrough. Khalil Herbert will start if Montgomery is downgraded to out.
For the Vikings, Booth was a full participant Friday — so it’s likely he plays Sunday after missing several weeks with the quad injury. Minnesota has been one of the healthier teams in the league.
