The NFL’s Week 2 slate tips Thursday with Detroit at Buffalo, followed by a weekend featuring Packers–Jets, Eagles–Titans, Vikings–Bears, Chiefs–Colts, and Giants–Rams, CNN’s preview noted.

CBS Sports’ injury report said Joe Burrow was trending toward playing while tight end Brock Bowers remained doubtful, among other team-by-team updates that will reshape fantasy and betting markets into Sunday. Early-season injury clusters—like Baltimore’s receiver attrition reported Wednesday—already force offensive coordinators into contingency plans.

Week 2 often reveals which Week 1 explosions were sustainable. Primetime narrative lines will follow whether Buffalo’s offense answers Detroit’s start and whether burgeoning quarterback controversies elsewhere stabilize.
