It’s starting to feel like this season, more than any in recent memory, has an unusually large number of injuries, specifically to big-name players. As we head into Week 3, we have already seen New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb and Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins have their seasons ended early.
Other star players, including Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler, are currently dealing with injuries that may impact their availability for Week 3 and beyond. A pair of rookie quarterbacks also won’t take the field, as Anthony Richardson and Bryce Young will also be out for Sunday.
Here’s a full look at each team’s final injury report for Week 3:

As we await the final injury reports for this game, the biggest news here is that Chargers running back Austin Ekeler missed Wednesday and Thursday’s practice as he is still working through an ankle injury.
