  • Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ

    Broncos' Josh Reynolds: Ready to face Pittsburgh

    Reynolds (Achilles) practiced in full Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.

    Reynolds missed practice Wednesday and was limited Thursday, but it's possible the Broncos were simply managing his reps due to lingering Achilles discomfort. The veteran wideout could be in line for expanded opportunities Sunday with rookie Devaughn Vele (ribs), who drew eight targets Week 1, ruled out for Sunday's matchup.

  • Lions' Isaiah Williams: Missing Week 2

    Williams (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    The rookie wideout from Illinois popped up on the Lions' injury report Thursday with an abdominal issue, and after logging a DNP on Friday, he's been ruled out for Week 2. As of now, the only wide receivers on the Lions' active roster without injury designations are Amon-Ra St. Brown and Kalif Raymond.

  • Broncos' Devaughn Vele: Ruled out for Week 2

    Vele (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Vele missed three consecutive practices this week due to a rib issue, so it's no surprise to see him officially ruled out on Friday's injury report. The rookie seventh-round pick impressed with an eight-catch NFL debut Week 1 at Seattle, but he'll have to wait until at least Week 3 in Tampa Bay to continue building chemistry with rookie quarterback Bo Nix.

  • Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: No injury designation

    Lockett (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at New England, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Lockett has been dealing with a thigh injury since mid-August and was listed as questionable for Week 1, before catching six passes for 77 yards on a team-high seven targets in a 26-20 win over Denver. He got fewer snaps and routes than Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who nonetheless was targeted just twice en route to a 2-19-0 receiving line. It's possible Lockett gets more playing time now that he's healthier, but it might also be a regular thing for JSN to take more snaps/routes than his 31-year-old teammate this year.

  • Roman Wilson WR | PIT

    Steelers' Roman Wilson: Questionable after limited practice

    Wilson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos after a limited practice Friday.

    Wilson practiced without limitations Thursday, but his participation downgraded Friday. The 2024 third-round draft pick is hoping to make his NFL debut Sunday, but he missed the entire preseason, as well as last week's 18-10 win over the Falcons, due to an ankle injury. Even if he suits up, Wilson's role will likely be limited initially as he gets up to speed.

  • Ty Scott WR | SEA

    Ty Scott: Let go from practice squad

    The Seahawks cut Scott from the practice squad Friday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

    Scott spent training camp with Seattle, but he's now been removed from the practice squad to make room for outside linebacker Jamie Sheriff. The 25-year-old will now likely have to search for a similar reserve role elsewhere in the league.

  • Titans' DeAndre Hopkins: Good to go for Week 2

    Hopkins hasn't been listed on the Titans' Week 2 injury report in advance of Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site noted Friday that Hopkins has looked good in practice this week, and the wide receiver even spoke on his recent knee injury Thursday, calling it "a sprained MCL, which is a common injury, not a tear." Hopkins was able to suit up this past Sunday at Chicago, but his role was scaled back to the tune of 17 of 64 offensive snaps and one catch (on one target) for eight yards. Considering his lack of limitations in practice this week, he should see a significant increase in snaps and even looks from QB Will Levis on Sunday.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Cleared for Sunday's game

    Collins (illness) practiced fully Friday and does not carry a Week 2 injury designation.

    An illness limited Collins on Thursday, but the wideout's full participation a day later sets the stage for him to be available Sunday night against the Bears. In the Texans' 29-27 win over the Colts in Week 1, Collins caught six of his eight targets for 117 yards while recording an 80 percent snap share alongside fellow WRs Stefon Diggs (77 percent) and Tank Dell (63 percent).

  • Broncos' Devaughn Vele: Doesn't practice all week

    Vele (ribs) remained sidelined for a third consecutive practice Friday, Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette reports.

    Denver has yet to release Friday's official injury report, but Vele will almost certainly be on it, though it remains to be seen whether the rookie wide receiver will be listed as questionable, doubtful or out. After an eight-catch NFL debut Week 1 against the Seahawks, Vele's unlikely to have a significant role if he plays at all Sunday against the Steelers.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Status in question for Week 2

    Reed (calf/shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    This follows Reed showing up on the Packers' Week 2 practice report Friday as limited by a pair of lower-leg injuries. His status will confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p..m. ET kickoff. Meanwhile, Green Bay has yet to rule out Jordan Love (MCL sprain) for this upcoming contest, also calling him questionable, so there seems to be a chance Reed will be on the receiving end of passes from his typical signal-caller, assuming the pair are active this weekend.
