Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (back) is expected to be activated off the 10-day injured list sometime this week. Correa has been sidelined since August 20 due to a lower back issue.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers D.J. Chark (ankle), Chris Conley (hip) and Marqise Lee (knee) were all limited in practice on Monday ahead of the Week 3 game Thursday night against the Titans.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker tied for the team lead with his seven targets in a 43-0 loss to the Patriots on Sunday, but the perennial breakout candidate was unable to haul in even a single catch.

Luis Urias Capitalizes At Coors Field

San Diego Padres shortstop Luis Urias enjoyed a fantastic series in Coors Field, finishing 5-for-14 with a homer, three doubles and seven runs-plus-RBI against the Colorado Rockies.
