NFL Week 1 injuries: Bears wideout Rome Odunze, Saints running back Alvin Kamara listed as questionable

Alvin Kamara and Rome Odunze are questionable for the season opener, while Cameron Jordan is ruled out and Jonathon Brooks is cleared to return for the Panthers Sep 11, 2026 at 4:00 pm ET • 3 min read Week 1 of the NFL is here, and while that is exciting, there are several teams dealing with notable injuries as they enter their first games of the season. The Atlanta Falcons won't have their top two quarterbacks, the Las Vegas Raiders will be without their top weapon in Brock Bowers, and the New York Giants could potentially be without their top wideout, Malik Nabers, for their primetime conference clash with the Dallas Cowboys.While almost every NFL team will have a player or two listed on their final injury reports, these will likely be the cleanest injury reports all year! Below, we will break down the official injury reports for Week 1 in the NFL. New Orleans Saints at Detroit LionsSaints:TE Oscar Delp (hamstring), RB Audric Estime (thigh), DE Cameron Jordan (hamstring) OUT; RB Alvin Kamara (knee) QUESTIONABLELions: TBAThe Saints won't have veteran defensive end Cameron Jordan for Week 1, as he sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday with a hamstring injury. Running back Alvin Kamara is officially listed as questionable to play with his MCL sprain, but did practice as a full participant on Friday. Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Cincinnati BengalsBuccaneers: OT Justin Skule (oblique), RB Sean Tucker (hamstring), WR Jalen McMillan (knee) DOUBTFUL; LB Christian Rozeboom (foot) QUESTIONABLEBengals: DE Shemar Stewart (knee) DOUBTFULBaker Mayfield could be without one of his wide receivers in Jalen McMillan, who was limited all week in practice with a knee injury. He's doubtful to suit up. The same is true for backup running back Sean Tucker, who missed practice Wednesday with a hamstring injury. For the Bengals, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and DJ Turner II were all listed on the injury report, but carry no game designations into Week 1 -- which is good. Shemar Stewart on the other hand missed practice Friday with a knee injury, and is considered doubtful. Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis ColtsRavens: TBAColts: TBAAnalysis to comeCleveland Browns at Jacksonville JaguarsBrowns: OG Teven Jenkins (back) OUT, C Parker Brailsford (thumb) QUESTIONABLEJaguars: TBABrowns starting right guard Teven Jenkins will miss the season opener with a back injury.

Ozzy Trapilo, who is also questionable, was limited all week with a knee injury, and Xavier Woods was limited Thursday and Friday with a groin injury. He too is questionable. The Panthers had a relatively clean injury report, with Patrick Jones II the only player listed.
