Another week, another list of notable NFL players whose health statuses are the topic of major conversation. Dak Prescott kicked things off earlier in the week when he did not rule out playing this Sunday after having the stitches removed from his surgically repaired thumb. Prescott is itching to get back on the field after watching teammate and backup Cooper Rush lead the Cowboys to a pair of wins over the past two weeks.
Prescott isn't the only notable player who is dealing with an injury. Tua Tagovailoa's status for Miami's Thursday night game in Cincinnati remains in question after he was injured during this past Sunday's dramatic win over Buffalo. Keenan Allen is hoping to play for the first time since injuring his hamstring in the Chargers' season-opener. Jets fans are hoping that Zach Wilson get make his season debut this Sunday in Pittsburgh, where Steelers fans are keeping their fingers crossed that Minkah Fitzpatrick can play after entering the concussion protocol.
