Several prominent players face uncertain availability ahead of NFL Week 3, according to a team-by-team roundup of final injury reports published by CBS Sports. The listings include game designations and practice updates, though some teams’ information was still incomplete.

Rams receiver Puka Nacua is listed as doubtful for Sunday night’s game against Denver with hip and groin issues. That designation does not rule him out.

San Francisco pass rusher Nick Bosa is expected to miss a few weeks after injuring his calf at practice. The supplied report gives no return date or final decision on whether the 49ers will place him on injured reserve.

Houston receiver Nico Collins is ruled out with a hamstring injury. The Texans also list several other players as unavailable, including defensive back M.J. Stewart and edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney.

The roundup includes injury reports and statuses across other teams, with some entries marked “TBA”. Chicago’s final game statuses were still due on Saturday, so the roundup did not yet provide a complete picture for every team.
