Ebron and Johnson are on Monday night football against the Saints and both players are expected to play for the Lions. The Dolphins lost center Mike Pouncey to a leg injury and he needed help getting off of the field and was carted to the locker room. Marcus Mariota suffered a knee injury on Sunday for the Titans and according to Pro Football Talk, Mariota will be getting an MRI on the knee on Monday.

NFL.com reports that Mariota is believed to have an MCL injury in his right knee. McCoy was injured for the Bills on Sunday and Rand Getlin at NFL.com reports that McCoy is dealing with an MCL sprain.

Peterson dealt with an ankle injury in the game, but he was able to return for the Vikings.
AJ Green left the game in the third quarter for the Bengals with an injury, but the game was way out of hand by then and that is likely why Cincy took him out.

Draughn suffered a knee injury against the Bengals for the 49ers on Sunday and was replaced by Kendall Gaskins.
Alshon Jeffery dealt with hamstring tightness on Sunday against the Vikings and was taken out of the game for the Bears. The Houston Texans saw TJ Yates injured on Sunday and he is reportedly dealing with an ACL injury, which would be season-ending.
