Jets head coach Aaron Glenn wasn’t willing to share any updates about injured players at his Tuesday press conference, but the team's estimated injury report shed some light on where things stand heading into Thursday night's game against the Patriots.

Wide receiver Garrett Wilson was listed as a non-participant for the second straight day. A report from Rich Cimini of ESPN.com on Monday said Wilson is expected to miss several weeks due to the injury and that report seemed to rankle Glenn as he told other members of the media to "ask Rich" about the team's injuries.

The most significant change on Tuesday's report involved edge rusher Will McDonald (quad) going from out of practice to limited participation. McDonald had four sacks in Sunday's win over the Browns, so the Jets would like to have him available against Drake Maye this week.

Defensive tackle Harrison Phillips (foot) and cornerback Azareye'h Thomas (concussion) would have missed practice Tuesday. Thomas has already been ruled out for Thursday.

Edge rusher Braiden McGregor (shoulder) was listed as limited while offensive lineman Xavier Newman-Johnson (ankle), running back Khalil Herbert (groin), and linebacker Kiko Mauigoa (concussion) were listed as full participants.

The Broncos signed offensive tackle Geron Christian off the Cowboys' practice squad to their 53-player roster, the team announced Tuesday.

Denver waived wide receiver Michael Bandy and placed inside linebacker Karene Reid on injured reserve in corresponding moves. The Broncos also released tackle Marques Cox from the practice squad.

Christian, a 2018 third-round pick, has appeared in 63 games, starting 25, in his NFL career. He played five games in 2024 across stints with the Rams and Browns. Christian signed with the Cowboys' practice squad in August but has not appeared in a game this year.

Bandy has played seven offensive snaps and 16 special teams snaps across two games this season, while Reid played 59 percent of Denver's special teams snaps over the first 10 games.

The Buccaneers have parted ways with defensive tackle Desmond Watson for the second time this year.

According to multiple reports, the Bucs have released Watson from their practice squad. Watson, who joined the team as an undrafted free agent, was cut at the end of the preseason, but returned to the practice squad in September.

Watson weighed 464 pounds at Florida's pro day earlier this year and he was on the non-football injury list while trying to lose weight this summer. Watson said he had lost weight upon returning to the team, but declined to share an exact number.

Watson was not elevated to the active roster at any point since returning to Tampa. He could make another return to the Bucs' practice squad or active roster in the future.
