Jacobs (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.

We'll revisit Jacobs' status Friday, but we expect the Raiders' top back to approach Sunday's game against the Chiefs minus an injury designation, despite his continued practice limitations.

Cook was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report due to a chest injury.

After racking up at least 100 yards from scrimmage eight times in the first 10 games of the season, Cook sputtered in the Vikings' last contest Week 11 with 57 total yards, his second-lowest mark of the season. The team's ensuing bye week meant the running back wouldn't be listed on an injury report again until Thursday, at which point he was estimated as a limited participant. He'll have two more practices to prove his health ahead of Monday's game at Seattle.

Henry (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Henry continues to operate under a cap on his practice reps, but Turron Davenport of ESPN.com mentioned the running back looked OK in the portion of Thursday's session open to the media. Friday's injury report likely will clear up Henry's status once and for all for the Titans' Week 13 visit to Indianapolis.

Conner (shoulder) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

After logging a missed practice Wednesday, this is a positive step for the running back, who last suited up in Week 11. We should know more about his status for Sunday's game against the Browns no later than Friday, once the Steelers submit their final Week 13 injury report.

Henry (hamstring), who was limited in practice Wednesday, "seemed fine" during the media-access portion of Thursday's session, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

We'll have to see how the Titans classify Henry's participation level, but the running back's presence on the field Thursday suggests that his hamstring issue is not a major concern in advance of Sunday's game against the Colts.

Williams (ribs) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.

Williams is dealing with sore ribs and back-to-back absences cloud his status for Sunday's game against the Raiders. He'll presumably need to practice in some capacity Friday in order to have a chance to suit up this weekend. If he's out or limited against Oakland, Darrel Williams and LeSean McCoy would be in line for added backfield touches in Week 13.

Jacobs (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Jacobs continues to manage a shoulder issue, but based on how things have played out over the last few weeks, he'll likely be ready to play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Edmonds (hamstring) was limited at Wednesday's walk-through, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Coming off a Week 12 bye, Edmonds and defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard (foot) are the only Cardinals with injuries that are impacting their practice reps. While there's an expectation Edmonds returns from a three-game absence Sunday against the Rams, the state of the backfield is far different than his last appearance Week 8. Kenyan Drake, formerly of the Dolphins, has overtaken David Johnson for the top job, leaving nothing but scraps behind for the remaining backs. It remains to be seen if Johnson and/or an active Edmonds can reclaim some of their former workloads.

Coach Frank Reich said Wednesday that he intends to get Wilkins more involved in the offense going forward, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

Reich said Wilkins was only considered to be an emergency option in the Week 12 loss to the Texans, during which he played just one offensive snap. It's possible the second-year pro could see an increased role Sunday against Tennessee with Marlon Mack (hand) already ruled out, but Wilkins is unlikely to receive enough touches to warrant fantasy consideration behind Jonathan Williams and Nyheim Hines.

Henry was limited at practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Henry is coming off back-to-back big games during which he racked up 45 touches, so his limitations to begin Week 13 might be for maintenance purposes more than anything. If Henry upgrades to full participation Thursday, there will be little reason to worry about his availability for Sunday's game against the Colts.
