NFL Week 6 injury report: Bears thin in secondary vs. Jaguars; Texans’ Joe Mixon questionable vs. Patriots

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.Β 

The Bears won’t have safety Jaquan Brisker on Sunday, missing a few starters on defense for the London contest against the Jaguars. The Panthers will be down their top two centers for their NFC South clash against the Falcons.Β 

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 Friday’s final practice of the week. Make sure you continue to check this page out as we’ll be updating it throughout the evening.Β 

All NFL odds via SportsLine consensus.

The Jaguars won’t be taking Campbell off IR/designated for return this week, while all the questionable players were limited on Friday. Running back Travis Etienne (shoulder) will play, but the player to watch is Engram — who has been out several weeks with a hamstring injury.Β 

The Bears likely won’t have two players in their starting secondary for this game in Brisker and Stevenson, as Stevenson did not practice on Friday. Smith is also out, leaving them thin at cornerback. Martin practiced in full all week as he is on IR/designated for return.Β 

Baltimore always seems to be dealing with injuries, and this week has been no exception. The good news is that each of the Ravens’ questionable players were limited during Friday’s practice.Β 

Analysis to come

Mixon was limited during each of Houston’s last two practices, so he’s status for Sunday is looking up. Mixon hasn’t played since the Texans’ Week 2 win over the Bears.Β

The Giants are going to be without Nabers for the second straight game, as he has not passed concussion protocol. Singletary has been limited in practice all week, but Tyrone Tracy would get the start if he can’t go.Β
