Henderson is out for Wednesday's Week 1 game at Seattle because of his ankle injury after missing practice time leading into the opener.
Remove Henderson from Week 1 lineups. Stevenson gains a clearer immediate workload path, though Seattle's defense still affects the matchup outlook.
Tampa Bay lists McMillan as a starting wide receiver for Week 1, but the club says a knee injury could affect his availability. The depth-chart placement supports a meaningful role if active; it does not establish that he will play.
Keep McMillan in the Week 1 discussion only if he is active. His starting designation is encouraging, but check Tampa Bay's final injury report before setting lineups.
Atlanta named Tagovailoa its Week 1 starter against Pittsburgh, while Penix will be inactive as he continues his recovery from a knee injury. The announcement settles the immediate quarterback decision but does not establish a longer-term depth-chart commitment.
Tagovailoa is the Falcons quarterback to consider for Week 1. Treat Penix as unavailable for the opener and avoid assuming the decision extends beyond the reported game.
Colts coach Shane Steichen said Pierce is on track to play against Baltimore after the wide receiver's ankle issue. The update supports his availability for the opener, though it does not clarify whether his workload will be limited.
Pierce can remain in Week 1 consideration for deeper formats; check the final injury report and game status before treating his role as fully unchanged.
Pierce's activation from PUP is a meaningful recovery step after his ankle surgery and preserves his chance to be ready for the opener. It does not confirm full practice participation or a Week 1 role.
Pierce moves from a long-term availability concern to a Week 1 monitor. Watch for his first practice participation and any Colts workload guidance.
