Week 5 NFL live updates, news, schedule: Jayden Daniels returns from elbow injury; Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins questionable

We've got another action-packed NFL game slate for Week 5, albeit a slate short of two teams - the Kansas City Chiefs and Carolina Panthers, which are both on bye. Per usual, fantasy football managers and NFL fans have a number of injuries to monitor ahead of kickoff.

Among those questionable for Week 5: Bengals WRs Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) and Tee Higgins (adductor/neck), Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot), Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (ankle), Bears QB Caleb Williams (hamstring) and Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (foot/ankle).

There were a number of stars ruled out ahead of Sunday's action, including Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (with Tyler Huntley getting the start), Eagles RB Saquon Barkley and WR DeVonta Smith, Jets RB Breece Hall and Bears RB Kyle Monangai. On the defensive side of the ball, two teams will be without their star cornerbacks, with Christian Gonzalez ruled out for the Patriots and Pat Surtain II out for the Broncos.

The Cardinals will notably be without WR Marvin Harrison Jr. on Sunday, reportedly informing him that he'd sit out for Week 5 while they attempt to finalize a trade, moving on from the former No. 4 overall pick. It has been reported that the Texans are one team involved in potential trade talks.

One player who didn't carry an injury designation for Week 5 is Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, who is making his return from a dislocated elbow in his non-throwing arm this afternoon against the New York Giants. He missed just two games, which did not require surgery, though he will wear a brace on that elbow to prevent any further injury to the elbow. He'll be short on receiving options in this contest, as wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been ruled out, while Terry McLaurin is questionable with a hamstring injury that held him out of Week 4.
