The rookie missed last week's game against the Arizona Cardinals as he was a healthy scratch. He injured his hamstring this past week during practice.

In other unrelated weekly injury report news, safety Ifeatu Melifonwu has been placed on injured reserve. He's been dealing with an ankle injury all season long and isn't ready to come back yet.

Campbell said earlier this week that Melifonwu "is progressing" however.

The head coach also said on Saturday that tight end Sam LaPorta (ankle) will be active for Monday night's game. LaPorta injured his ankle against the Cardinals last week as he appeared to get rolled up on in the first half.

• OT Dan Skipper (ribs)
• DT Alim McNeill (shoulder)
• LB Alex Anzalone (concussion)
