Kincaid (chest) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Kincaid has started Week 8 prep with consecutive limited practice sessions coming out of Buffalo's Week 7 bye. The 27-year-old TE has yet to miss a game this season, but Kincaid has cooled down significantly after a scorching start, mustering 90 receiving yards over the past four games after posting 225 yards and a TD through Week 2. Kincaid will look to get back on track Sunday against the Ravens, assuming he plays through the chest injury that's limiting his practice participation.

Warren (groin) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.

Warren has now logged limited practices on back-to-back days after missing the last two games, a positive sign for his progress ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Despite the two-game absence, Warren still leads the Colts with 30 catches and is second on the team behind Jonathan Taylor with three total touchdowns in five appearances. Warren would likely need to log a full practice Friday to avoid an injury designation.

Bates was a non-participant in Thursday's practice due to a shoulder injury.

Bates has been a spectator for the Commanders' first two Week 8 practices and will need to get back on the field in some capacity to put himself in position to play Sunday against the Eagles. The sixth-year tight end has played at least 30 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the Commanders' first six games, mainly serving as a blocking specialist while recording five receptions for 27 yards on six targets.

Kincaid (chest) remained in a red non-contact jersey for a second straight day Thursday, Jay Skurski of the Buffalo News reports.

This marks Kincaid's second straight practice in a non-contact jersey as Buffalo returns from the team's bye and prepares to host the Ravens in Week 8. Friday's practice will give a more clear picture of Kincaid's status going into the weekend.

Seattle signed Sims to its practice squad Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Seattle tried out Sims on Tuesday, and the team evidently liked what it saw enough to bring him on as a member of the practice squad. Over 11 games with the Packers and the Vikings in 2025, he caught three of six targets for 30 yards.

Thomas (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Thomas picked up a shoulder injury against the Rams in Week 7, although he was cleared to return to the contest and finished with one catch on as many targets for eight yards. He would avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets if he were to practice in full over the next two days.

Kacmarek (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Kacmarek may have picked up the injury during the Dolphins' Week 7 win over the Jets, when he logged 34 snaps (29 on offense, five on special teams) without showing up on the box score otherwise. The rookie third-rounder will have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity before Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Ogletree (knee) was estimated as a limited participant on the Colts' official injury report Wednesday.

Ogletree presumably picked up the knee injury during Sunday's game at Minnesota, but his status indicates it's probably not too severe. If he can practice in full Thursday or Friday, he could still avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Minnesota signed Nesbit (undisclosed) to its practice squad Wednesday.

The Vikings waived Nesbit from their injured reserve list with an injury settlement back in August, but he's now back in the building following Week 7. Minnesota also signed tight end Devin Culp to its practice squad Wednesday.

Minnesota signed Culp to its practice squad Wednesday.

Just a little more than a week after getting cut from the Browns' practice squad, Culp has now found another opportunity with a new club. He suited up for 13 games with the Buccaneers in 2025, catching his only target for six yards and a touchdown.
