Updated: Sep 16, 2026 - 8:48 PM ET
Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season is in the books. Now, it's time to get back to work for Week 2.
The vast majority of the league hit the practice field for the first time this week on Wednesday. That means we'll get our first hints as to which injured players will be available and who might miss their team's upcoming game this weekend.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold and Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray are among the players to watch for at practice on Wednesday. Darnold left the Seahawks' season-opening win over the New England Patriots due to a hip injury, and it's unclear what his timetable is for his return. Murray, meanwhile, is in concussion protocol after leaving the Vikings' win over the Green Bay Packers.
Here are all the notable headlines around the league on Wednesday.
