Tennessee moved on from Melvin Smith Jr. after 10 days and used the active-roster spot on a more experienced outside corner.

The fourth-year lineman has 11 career offensive snaps, but familiarity and availability put him ahead of veteran Ethan Pocic for the opener.

The rookie handled more carries than Christian McCaffrey in the opener, but McCaffrey retained the larger receiving role.

The Cowboys extended a useful blocker before restricted free agency, clarifying the depth chart without establishing a new fantasy receiving role.

Seattle's first game put real distance between Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp in the receiving results, even after Drew Lock replaced Sam Darnold.

Jacobs came off the exempt list Monday and can practice Wednesday. Matt LaFleur has not committed to playing him against the Lions.
