Ready or not, another week of NFL action is on deck. Week 4 is jam-packed with storylines, ranging from Micah Parsons making his return to Dallas to face the Cowboys to the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs duking it out at Arrowhead Stadium. We also have a doubleheader on Monday night to wrap up the week. Of course, those are the angles we’re looking forward to seeing unfold, but there’s also an ugly side of the upcoming slate: injuries. 

Several prominent players have been dealing with injuries in the early stages of the season, and Week 4 will be impacted by a handful of them, including CeeDee Lamb and Mike Evans, who have both already been ruled out. 

Below, we’re going to take the temperature of all the injury situations across the league, as most clubs begin practice and release their initial reports. We’ll also look at the final injury report for Thursday’s NFC West matchup between the Seahawks and Cardinals.
