The NFL is a place where players are constantly going down with injuries, and there are plenty of guys not expected to play this Sunday.

Although we are awaiting official word from some of the teams on inactives, we are starting to see reports. For starters, the Tennessee Titans will be without tight end Delanie Walker today. Walker is one of the better pass-catching tight ends in football, and could have helped Tennessee get to 2-1 today against the Oakland Raiders.

Another star reportedly sidelined is Thomas Rawls, who will be backed up by Christine Michael. Rawls was injured against the Los Angeles Rams last week and could not get ready in time. Without him, the Seattle Seahawks will look for Michael to lead them past the San Francisco 49ers.

The Washington Redskins will also be without Josh Doctson, who has been banged up throughout training camp and now into the season. Washington desperately needs a win this weekend against the New York Giants, already sitting at 0-2 and 0-1 within the NFC East.

Other players that are expected to be out include Jamaal Charles of the Kansas City Chiefs and Sammy Watkins of the Buffalo Bills. Watkins has been dealing with foot problems throughout the offseason and was hurt again in Week 1.

#Bills WR Sammy Watkins is listed as questionable, but Rex Ryan told reporters the likelihood is “probably not real good” he plays.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs have Charles listed as doubtful on their injury report and will likely be without him for a third straight game, as he continues to recover from a torn ACL.
