Chicago's quarterback is reported to be targeting next week's trip to Atlanta, Washington's top receiver is a genuine toss-up against the Giants, and Tennessee's rookie wideout looks set to play through a sore back.
The edge rusher was the only Philadelphia starter left in doubt after Friday, and he will not play at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Jacksonville's inactive list includes safety Eric Murray and offensive lineman Daniel Faalele.
The defensive lineman will miss at least four games, and a beat reporter expects the absence to run longer. New York called up Dalen Cambre and Trace Ford for Sunday.
