Sean McVay says Puka Nacua is "not making great progress" toward Sunday night, leaving his status shaky. McVay added the Rams have confidence in their plan if Nacua can't go.
Matthew Golden is more than a splash-play stash: he owns a 25.4% target share and 2.32 yards per route through two weeks, while Jayden Reed is out. With Golden already playing 82%+ of snaps, he's a strong add before the role fully crystallizes.
Ladd McConkey logged a full practice Wednesday while managing his rib injury, a meaningful step toward Week 3 availability. It is progress, not a game-day clearance.
Puka Nacua does not have a hernia, Sean McVay said, but the Rams are taking a cautious approach and believe time is needed for his injury to heal. His Week 3 availability remains unresolved.
Jonah Coleman was corrected from participating to not practicing Wednesday with his ankle issue. That's a meaningful downgrade for his Week 3 outlook, though his game availability remains unresolved.
Brock Bowers was limited Wednesday, keeping his Week 3 status unresolved. If he sits, Michael Mayer is the stash: he played 84% of snaps and saw 4 targets last week, though that points to opportunity - not a guaranteed breakout.
Puka Nacua won't practice Wednesday, leaving his status unresolved. If he sits, Terrance Ferguson is the Rams stash after seeing 9 targets and a red-zone look in Week 2 - not a guaranteed replacement, but real opportunity.
Malik Nabers was corrected from a full participant to limited Wednesday with a shoulder issue. That's a meaningful downgrade, but it still leaves his game availability unresolved; there's no clear Giants replacement angle yet.
Malik Nabers practiced in full Wednesday, a meaningful step after his shoulder issue. It still doesn't clear him for the game, but this is stronger than the earlier walk-through progress.
Malik Nabers participated in Wednesday's open walk-through despite his shoulder injury. That's a positive step, but it was helmetless and his game status remains unresolved, so this is progress - not a full clearance.
The Seahawks don't plan to open Zach Charbonnet's practice window this week, extending his knee-related absence. Emanuel Wilson's 21 carries and seven red-zone carries keep him fantasy-relevant, but Jadarian Price's return to practice clouds the backfield.
David Njoku is headed to IR, while Charlie Kolar will avoid it. That muddies the Oronde Gadsden stash: he has caught 2 passes on 2 targets in each game, but Kolar's status makes a bigger role far from secure.
Jonah Coleman is dealing with a sprained ankle suffered Sunday. J.K. Dobbins is expected to practice this week and RJ Harvey continues to progress, keeping Coleman's Week 3 availability and Denver's backfield split unsettled.
DJ Moore returned to Bills practice Wednesday in a non-contact jersey after his shoulder issue. It's a positive step, but the wideout has not yet been cleared to play.
