The second half of the 2024 regular season is upon us, starting with a thrilling victory by the Baltimore Ravens over the Cincinnati Bengals. Of course, a new week comes new injury news that we need to follow. The injury bug has been an omnipresent figure throughout the first half of the year and continued to bite in Week 9, and that’ll have direct impacts on the upcoming slate.
We’ll be waiting on the official status of San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, who is supposed to make his season debut this week. The Buffalo Bills will be down one wide receiver in Keon Coleman, and Amari Cooper is questionable.
As for the rest of the injury news throughout the league, we’ve collected all of the final injury reports from teams.

The Bills will be without Coleman for Sunday, and could be short another wideout as Cooper was listed as questionable. Cooper was limited in practice all week, so he’ll be a game-time decision. Receiver Mack Hollins (shoulder) was limited, but was not given an injury designation.
- Patriots: S Kyle Dugger (ankle), LB Christian Elliss (abdomen) OUT; CB Alex Austin (ankle), DT Daniel Ekuale (abdomen), G Michael Jordan (ankle), T Vederian Lowe (shoulder), S Marte Mapu (neck), G Layden Robinson (ankle), DT Jaqyelin Roy (neck) QUESTIONABLE
- Bears: OL Kiran Amegadjie (calf), DB Jaquan Brisker (concussion), OL Braxton Jones (knee), OL Darnell Wright (knee) OUT; DL Darrell Taylor (knee), LB Noah Sewell (knee), OL Ryan Bates (shoulder) QUESTIONABLE
Austin, Jordan, Ekuale, and Robinson all practiced in full Friday for the Patriots, so they should be good to go. The Patriots are down two defensive starters this week.
The Bears are going to be down their top two tackles this week, adding even more problems to the offensive line for quarterback Caleb Williams. Bates is on the 21-day practice window, but he practiced in full all week.
The Steelers are relatively healthy heading into Sunday’s showdown with the Commanders. Skowronek and Matakevich are in the designated 21-day practice window, but both were full participants in practice all week.
