  • Zay Jones WR | HOU

    Cardinals' Zay Jones: Logs full practice Wednesday

    Jones (suspension) practiced fully Wednesday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Since he was reinstated Monday from his five-game suspension to begin the season, Jones has had a one-game roster exemption placed upon him, which gives the Cardinals until next Monday to add him to the active roster. They seemingly plan to do so before then, as a spot on the roster opened up Wednesday with the release of fellow wideout Chris Moore. In the end, Arizona must make a decision by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday in order for Jones to be available Sunday at Green Bay.

  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Dealing with ankle issue

    Meyers didn't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury.

    With Davante Adams (hamstring) not expected to play Sunday against the Steelers, Meyers' status is worth monitoring closely in the coming days. While Adams was sidelined for both of the past two games, Meyers took on a heightened role in the Las Vegas passing attack, producing an 11-121-0 receiving line on 19 targets between those contests.

  • DJ Turner WR | HOU

    Raiders' DJ Turner: Nursing hamstring injury

    Turner was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session due to a hamstring injury.

    Turner made his first career start in Week 5 against the Broncos and finished with one catch (on four targets) for 12 yards while adding five rushing yards on one carry. He seems to be banged up coming out of that contest, but his ability to practice in some capacity Wednesday suggests that he's still on track to play Sunday against the Steelers. With Davante Adams (hamstring) likely to remain out Week 6, Turner should be in store for another healthy snap share.

  • Trey Palmer WR | NO

    Buccaneers' Trey Palmer: Still not practicing

    Palmer (concussion) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Palmer has yet to mix into drills since suffering a concussion Week 4 against the Eagles. With no notable progress through the five-step concussion protocol, he may be in danger of missing a second game in a row Sunday at New Orleans, but he'll have two more sessions this week to attempt to get on a path to suiting up. Fellow receivers Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Kameron Johnson (ankle) were limited in Wednesday's practice, giving them far better odds to be available this weekend behind starters Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Limited in return to practice

    McMillan (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    After injuring his hamstring in practice Sept. 27, McMillan missed the Buccaneers' last two contests, but his return to drills for the first time since then indicates he's made some progress in his recovery. Meanwhile, fellow wideout Trey Palmer (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, and Kameron Johnson (ankle) had a cap on his reps. How each of the trio fares the rest of the week should determine the pecking order at the position behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in Week 6 at New Orleans, but if he's available, McMillan likely will return to the third spot on the depth chart.

  • Rashid Shaheed WR | SEA

    Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Tending to hip issue

    Shaheed was a non-participant at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a hip injury, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Aside from getting blanked on five targets Week 3 against the Eagles, Shaheed has surpassed 73 yards from scrimmage in the other four games while scoring three touchdowns. With a health concern now affecting his practice reps, his status will be one to monitor as the week goes on to get a sense of his availability for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

  • Romeo Doubs WR | NE

    Packers' Romeo Doubs: Avoids injury report

    Doubs (suspension) wasn't listed Wednesday on the Packers' first Week 6 practice report, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    After sitting out this past Sunday's win at the Rams due to a one-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team, Doubs met with Green Bay brass and had the ban lifted by the team Monday. He then rejoined his teammates on the practice field Wednesday without limitations, setting him up to be available Sunday against the Cardinals. With Christian Watson (ankle) returning to practice as a limited participant Wednesday, there seems to be a slight chance the Packers will have their full allotment of wide receivers available Week 6. However, a high-ankle sprain typically results in a multi-game absence, and Watson has missed just one contest thus far.

  • Colts' Michael Pittman: Could miss time with back injury

    Pittman is dealing with a back injury that could sideline him multiple weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Per Schefter, a stint on injured reserve is a possibility for Pittman, who missed Wednesday's practice. If he indeed misses time beginning with Sunday's game against the Titans, Josh Downs (toe), Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell would be in line to lead Indianapolis' receiving corps.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Limited in return to practice

    Watson (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Just 10 days removed from suffering a left high-ankle sprain Week 4 against the Vikings that sidelined him this past Sunday at the Rams, Watson was able to return to the practice field. It's no surprise that he managed only limited reps considering the nature of the injury, but he may not miss as much time as initially expected. Ultimately, how Watson fares in practice Thursday and Friday likely will determine whether or not he's ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Cardinals.

  • Johnny Wilson WR | PHI

    Eagles' Johnny Wilson: Progressing through protocols

    Wilson (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session.

    Wilson was removed during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Buccaneers in order to be evaluated for a concussion. The Eagles had a bye in Week 5, and he was able to practice without restrictions Wednesday, though he will have to progress through the league's five-step protocols in order to be cleared ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. The rookie sixth-round pick has one catch (on six targets) for nine yards through four regular-season games.
