Jadarian Price RB | SEA
Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Stays limited Thursday
Price (chest) was limited in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Price now has kicked off Week 3 prep with back-to-back capped sessions due to a chest injury that he picked up in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's victory at Arizona. He may need to upgrade to full participation Friday in order to avoid a designation ahead of Sunday's visit to Washington. In any case, if Price is inhibited of sidelined this weekend, Emanuel Wilson and George Holani (knee, FP on Thursday) are on hand to man Seattle's backfield.

Jonah Coleman RB | DEN
Broncos' Jonah Coleman: Sits out another practice
Coleman (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's injury report.
Coleman was present for Thursday's session, but the ankle injury he sustained Sunday prevented him from getting any work for the second time in as many days. Backfield mates J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey are in the clear for Week 3 after both practicing fully Thursday, and Coleman will likely need to get at least some work in Friday if he hopes to join them.

RJ Harvey RB | DEN
Broncos' RJ Harvey: Upgrades to full practice
Harvey (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's injury report.
Harvey missed Week 2 with a hamstring injury, but he got in a limited practice Wednesday and a full session a day later, so he is set to return to action Sunday against the Rams. Fellow running back J.K. Dobbins (hip) also practiced fully while Jonah Coleman (ankle) missed a second straight day of work, so Harvey may only need to share the snaps with one running back in Week 3 rather than two.

J.K. Dobbins RB | DEN
Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Puts forth full practice
Dobbins (hip) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's injury report.
Dobbins sustained an apparent hamstring injury in Sunday's victory over the Jaguars and was ultimately limited at Wednesday's session with a hip issue, but with him getting in a full session Thursday neither is an issue any longer. Backfield mate RJ Harvey (hamstring) also practiced fully Thursday while rookie Jonah Coleman (ankle) sat out a second straight day,

Tank Bigsby RB | PHI
Eagles' Tank Bigsby: Misses Thursday practice
Bigsby (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.
Bigsby was spotted in sweats during the open portion of Thursday's session, and now the reason for his absence has become known. Both Bigsby and fellow reserve RB Will Shipley (foot) were DNPs to kick off Week 3 prep, while Saquon Barkley, who suffered a stinger this past Sunday in Tennessee, was limited. Because all three are banged up to some extent at this point in the week, the overall situation will be watched to get a sense of who among the three may be able to play Monday at Chicago.

Saquon Barkley RB | PHI
Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Officially limited Thursday
Barkley (stinger) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
Barkley missed most of the first half of the Eagles' Week 2 win at Tennessee due to a stinger, but he returned in the second half and ended the contest with five touches for 20 yards from scrimmage. He told Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer on Thursday that an MRI on his left shoulder "went well," and during the corresponding session he was spotted wearing a protective device on his shoulder and neck area, per Zach Berman of The Athletic. Barkley is actually the healthiest of the running backs on Philadelphia's active roster, as both Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and Will Shipley (foot) were held out of drills entirely to begin Week 3 prep. The overall situation bears monitoring in the coming days to see who among the trio will be available Monday in Chicago.

DeeJay Dallas RB | MIN
Vikings' DeeJay Dallas: Turns in limited practice
Dallas (toe) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
When Minnesota has all of its key backfield options available, Dallas is expected to play exclusively on special teams, but he'll likely be needed to serve as a passing-down or change-of-pace option at the very least during Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, provided the toe issue doesn't keep him from playing. Jordan Mason (thumb) won't be eligible to return from injured reserve until Week 7, and Aaron Jones -- who handled 23 touches and an 81 percent snap share in the Week 2 win over the Bears -- joined Dallas as a limited participant in Thursday's practice. If Jones ends up sitting out Sunday or has his snaps managed more carefully, Dallas could be in store for a more prominent role after he was limited to eight offensive snaps and three touches in Week 2.

Kendre Miller RB | NO
Saints' Kendre Miller: Sits out practice with illness
Miller was a non-participant in Thursday's practice due to an illness, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
After being a healthy inactive Week 2 win over the Ravens while the Saints welcomed Alvin Kamara (knee) back from a one-game absence, Miller will now have to overcome an illness as he looks to re-enter the backfield mix Sunday versus the Raiders. Even if he makes a full recovery from the ailment, Miller may need No. 1 back Travis Etienne (hamstring) to sit out the Week 3 game in order to avoid another inactive status. Etienne has been limited in both of the Saints' practices this week, clouding his availability for Sunday.

Saquon Barkley RB | PHI
Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Recent MRI 'went well'
Barkley (shoulder) said Thursday that his MRI "went well" when asked about his chances of playing in Monday's game at Chicago, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Barkley departed after the Eagles' first offensive snap this past Sunday at Tennessee and was diagnosed with a stinger, but he returned after halftime and finished Week 2 with four carries for nine yards and one catch (on two targets) for 11 yards. Because the Eagles play the Bears on Monday Night Football in Week 3, Philadelphia didn't hold practice until Thursday this week, and Barkley was seen wearing a protective device on his shoulder and neck area during the open portion of that session, per Zach Berman of The Athletic. Barkley's activity level will become known once the team posts its first injury report of the week.

Aaron Jones RB | MIN
Vikings' Aaron Jones: Limited in Thursday's practice
Jones (knee) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Jones opened Week 3 prep with no practice reps Wednesday due to a knee injury, but his ability to mix into some drills one day later is a positive step as the Vikings prepare for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay. Friday's practice report will unveil whether or not he has a designation ahead of that matchup.
