The most concerning name is of course star wide receiver DK Metcalf, who is not practicing. Metcalf missed last week’s game against Buffalo due to a Grade 1 MCL sprain he suffered in Week 7. Metcalf did not practice last week, and is starting off the week with the same status.

Macdonald also gave a positive outlook on defensive end Dre'Mont Jones, who injured his shoulder in Sunday's game, briefly leaving the game before returning. "He's got a shoulder," Macdonald said. "We're going to take care of him throughout the week to make sure he's ready to go on Sunday, but we're optimistic he'll be ready to go."
