NFL Week 7 injury report

It was another brutal week for injuries, with two starting quarterbacks suffering major injuries and durable Joe Thomas suffering a potentially major arm injury. Here's a rundown of Week 7's biggest injuries.

The Cowboys were without an actual kicker for much of the afternoon when Bailey was ruled out early in Sunday's game with a groin injury. Safety Jeff Heath tried to take over in his place.

2 of 17

Jay Cutler, QB, Dolphins

Cutler is likely to miss 2-3 weeks with a cracked rib suffered on Sunday. Matt Moore came on to replace Cutler and helped the Dolphins come from behind to beat the Jets.

Reuben Foster, LB, 49ers

Returning from an injury on Sunday, the 49ers rookie linebacker got hurt again with a rib injury. His status going forward is unclear.

4 of 17

E.J. Gaines, CB, Bills

Rich Barnes / USA Today Sports Images

It's been a rough year for Gaines, who was ruled out of Sunday's game after suffering a hamstring injury. The Bills were still able to beat Tampa Bay.

5 of 17

Malik Hooker, S, Colts

Brian Spurlock / USA Today Sports Images

The Colts defense took a costly blow when Hooker left with a torn ACL and MCL in his knee. The rookie was the 15th overall pick in the draft.

6 of 17

Ryan Kalil, C, Panthers

Kalil re-aggravated a neck injury in Sunday's loss to the Bears and didn't return.

7 of 17

Ryan Kelly, C, Colts

Brian Spurlock / USA Today Sports Images

Kelly already missed time earlier this season with a foot injury, and he left Sunday's loss with a hamstring issue. The Colts offensive line has struggled for much of the year.

8 of 17

Kevin Minter, LB, Bengals

Aaron Doster / USA Today Sports Images

Minter was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Steelers after suffering an elbow injury. His timetable is to be determined.

9 of 17

Carson Palmer, QB, Cardinals

Steven Flynn / USA Today Sports Images

The Cardinals lost David Johnson earlier this season, and a broken left arm for Palmer could be the final nail in the coffin for the team's 2017 season. Palmer will undergo surgery and miss eight weeks. Drew Stanton wasn't able to score in Palmer's place.

10 of 17

C.J. Prosise, RB, Seahawks

Troy Wayrynen / USA Today Sports Images

Questionable for Sunday's game with an ankle injury, Prosise aggravated the injury on Sunday. It seems like he will miss more time due to the injury.

11 of 17

Justin Pugh, OT, Giants

Brad Penner / USA Today Sports Images

Pugh left Sunday's game with a back injury and didn't re-enter the game. It's a costly injury for an offensive line that has played poorly this season.

12 of 17

Riley Reiff, OT, Vikings

Charles LeClaire / USA Today Sports Images

Reiff was already nursing a knee injury coming into Sunday's game and left the contest with a knee injury. The Vikings said after the game that the new injury isn't serious.

13 of 17

Cam Robinson, OT, Jaguars

Logan Bowles / USA Today Sports Images

Jacksonville's left tackle was carted off early in Sunday's game with an ankle injury. It could be a tough blow for the rookie.

14 of 17

Joe Thomas, LT, Browns

Ken Blaze / USA Today Sports Images

The streak is over. Thomas had a streak of 10,363 straight snaps before suffering a potentially serious triceps injury. He will have an MRI on Monday but could be lost for the season.

15 of 17

Laremy Tunsil, OT, Dolphins

Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images

Miami's second-year left tackle was removed from Sunday's game with a knee injury and didn't return.

16 of 17

Delanie Walker, TE, Titans

Scott Galvin / USA Today Sports Images

Walker left with an ankle injury and was on crutches after the game. The Titans head into a bye week, which is great timing for Walker.

17 of 17

Mike Wallace, WR, Ravens

Brace Hemmelgarn / USA Today Sports Images

Wallace came down to the wire to play on Sunday due to a back injury, but he didn't stay for long. He left with a concussion.
