NFL Week 6 injury report: Cowboys’ DaRon Bland (foot) practices fully in first day back

Welcome to Week 6 of the 2024 regular season. Like always, we’ve got several notable injuries to follow throughout the league as we get closer to this weekend’s games. 

The Dallas Cowboys could receive a big boost to their secondary on Sunday against the Detroit Lions with the return of All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland. He suffered a stress fracture in his foot the final week of training camp and has yet to play this season. However, Bland participated fully in practice on Wednesday, the first day of his 21-day practice window. Before practice on Wednesday, Cowboys coach Mike Mike McCarthy said Bland would “be on a pitch count” but that the NFL’s single-season pick-sixes leader (five in 2023) would “mostly do everything.” 

A new storyline to keep tabs on is Saints quarterback Derek Carr’s oblique injury that he suffered during Monday night’s loss to the Chiefs. The injury is expected to sideline Carr for multiple games. Rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler could start in Carr’s place for Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers. 

Another player who has been in the headlines lately is Raiders receiver Davante Adams, who has been at the center of trade rumors for over a week. Adams, who missed the team’s last two games with a hamstring injury, is expected to miss a third consecutive game Sunday against the Steelers, according to ESPN. 

There are plenty of other injuries to monitor, too. Fortunately for you, we’re keeping tabs on every notable injury throughout the league. Below, you’ll see each team’s notable injury news from Wednesday’s practice, the first of the week. Make sure you continue to check this page out as we’ll be updating it throughout the evening.
