NFL Week 1 injury report: Bengals could be without top-2 playmakers; Bears stars trending towards playing

It may be Week 1, but there are a host of injuries fans will want to monitor in the days leading up to kickoff. Fortunately for you, we’re tracking every notable injury and will include it in our weekly injury rundown. 

Below, you can see each Week 1 matchup and the notable injuries that every team is currently dealing with. Teams officially started practicing Wednesday, which means we’ve got a bunch of injury reports to sort through. One notable injury update from Thursday night’s season-opener was Ravens veteran linebacker Kyle Van Noy exiting early after fracturing an orbital bone. It’s not yet known how much time he will miss. 

Here’s a game-by-game rundown of each team’s current injury situation. 

Note: Summaries of teams that do not have an official game-time designation are from Wednesday’s initial injury report 

Packers at Eagles (Friday night in Brazil) 

Packers: TE Tucker Kraft (back), RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring), RB Emanuel Wilson (hip) QUESTIONABLE 
Eagles: CB Isaiah Rodgers (hand), LB Devin White (ankle) OUT 

Each of Green Bay’s questionable players were limited during Thursday’s estimated practice, which could be considered a positive sign. For the Eagles, White’s absence clears the way for three-year veteran Nakobe Dean to make his fifth career start. 

It’s no surprise that the Steelers’ injury-plagued offensive line had a notable presence on the team’s first injury report. Veteran Isaac Seumalo (pectoral) didn’t practice and is not expected to play on Sunday. Rookie Troy Fautanu (knee) was limited, which is a positive sign regarding his possible Week 1 status. Fellow rookie Roman Wilson (ankle) and running back Jaylen Warren (hamstring) were limited. 

Tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) and linebacker Nate Landman (quadriceps) — the only two Falcons on the injury report — were limited practice participants. Pitts’ status for Sunday is currently up in the air.
