NFL Week 5 injury report

Week 5 was particularly brutal for NFL injuries with stars like Odell Beckham Jr. and J.J. Watt suffering major injuries. Of course, this is the NFL, so they were far from the only impact players who were hurt to some degree this weekend.

Here's a rundown of the biggest injuries of the week.

Awuzie re-aggravated a hamstring injury against the Packers and was ruled out for the remainder of the game. He's suffered multiple issues with his hamstring this season.

Beckham was diagnosed with a broken ankle after getting rolled up on late in Sunday's game. He will wait for a second opinion before undergoing surgery, and the rest of his season is in doubt.

3 of 17

Charles Clay, TE, Bills

Clay was carted off the field on Sunday with a knee injury. Clay has an MCL sprain and maybe more, meaning he'll be out at least a few weeks, which is a crushing blow for a Bills squad that is already without No. 1 wideout Jordan Matthews.

Chris Conley, WR, Chiefs

Conley was carted off the field late in Sunday's game with an Achilles injury after recovering an onside kick. DeMarcus Robinson will likely see more snaps with the chance Conley is done for the year.

5 of 17

Dwayne Harris, WR, Giants

Harris will miss the rest of the season with a fractured foot. It's a costly injury for a Giants team that is very thin at wideout.

6 of 17

Adam Jones, CB, Bengals

Jones left Sunday's game and was ruled out with a lower back injury. The Bengals are thin at cornerback without him.

7 of 17

Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs

Kelce took a hit to the head just before halftime and wasn't seen during the second half due to a concussion. The Chiefs still managed to score 42 points and will monitor their star tight end.

Kevin King, CB, Packers

Green Bay's rookie cornerback left with a concussion. The Packers still managed a late win against the Cowboys and hope he'll pass the concussion protocol.

9 of 17

Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Bengals

Kirkpatrick was ruled out of Sunday's game with a shoulder injury, in addition to Adam Jones's back injury. His status is uncertain.

10 of 17

Brandon Marshall, WR, Giants

Noah K. Murray/USA Today Sports Images

A bad season got worse for Marshall when he suffered an ankle injury on Sunday and was carted off. His status is unclear.

11 of 17

Whitney Mercilus, OLB, Texans

Troy Taormina/USA Today Sports Images

Mercilus left very early in Sunday's game with a chest issue, reported as a pectoral injury. He was immediately ruled out and is reportedly out for the season with a torn pectoral.

Ngata left Sunday's game with an elbow injury. The Lions were unsure of the severity after the game.

Parker didn't return following an ankle injury on Sunday that was diagnosed as a sprain. The Dolphins defeated Tennessee 16-10.

Powell suffered a calf injury late in the first half of Sunday's game and didn't return to action. The Jets were already without Matt Forte.

Sterling Shepard, WR, Giants

Shepard is considered week to week with an ankle injury. He was one of four wide receiver injuries for the Giants on Sunday.

16 of 17

J.J. Watt, DE, Texans

Troy Taormina/USA Today Sports Images

Houston's star defensive end suffered a left tibial plateau fracture in the first half of Sunday's game. He's out indefinitely.
