Eskridge (ribs) practiced in limited fashion Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official sitereports.

Eskridge missed Seattle's last two games with a rib injury, though it's a positive sign he was able to practice in any capacity to begin the week. He'll have two more chances to upgrade his activity and clarify his status ahead of Monday's game against Philadelphia.

Adams (illness) is listed as active for Thursday night's game against the Chargers.

Adams approached the game listed as questionable after an illness led to him being deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through session, but now that his Week 15 availability has been confirmed, the wideout should be able to maintain his high-volume role in the Raiders' passing game. Through 13 games this season, Adams leads the team with a PPR-friendly 76 catches (on 128 targets) for 867 yards and four touchdowns.

Wilson (neck) was limited in practice Thursday, Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.

Wilson's last appearance occurred in Week 10, and while his absences Weeks 11-13 were blamed on a shoulder injury, the Cardinals now are listing him with a neck issue after their Week 14 bye. He's managed back-to-back capped sessions so far this week and will have one more opportunity to get back to all activity before the team potentially gives him a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Brown (heel) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.

Brown played through a heel injury in the Cardinals' previous two games, but he left the last one early Week 13 at Pittsburgh and wasn't able to return. Even with the benefit of a Week 14 bye, he didn't take part as the team reconvened for practice Wednesday, but his return to some drills one day later keeps the door ajar for him to be available Sunday against the 49ers. Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not Brown enters the weekend with an injury designation for Week 15 action.

Atwell (concussion) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

After entering the protocol for head injuries earlier this week, Atwell followed up an absence from Wednesday's jog-through with some activity one day later, indicating that he's making progress with his concussion. Still, he may have too many phases to pass through in order to make himself available Sunday against the Commanders. The Rams' final Week 15 practice report Friday could include a ruling on Atwell's upcoming availability.

Smith-Schuster (ankle) remained limited in practice Thursday.

Smith-Schuster also was limited Wednesday and presumably will need to practice fully Friday in order to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. DeVante Parker (knee), Demario Douglas (concussion), Tyquan Thornton (hamstring) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) also were listed as limited Thursday, which potentially sets the stage for five New England wide receivers to draw Week 15 injury tags.

Douglas (concussion) remained limited in practice Thursday.

Douglas has missed back-to-back games, but the rookie wide receiver's capped sessions Wednesday and Thursday offer hope that he could potentially return to action Sunday against the Chiefs. Also listed as limited by the Patriots on Thursday were fellow WRs DeVante Parker (knee), JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle), Tyquan Thornton (hamstring) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder).

Parker (knee) remained limited during Thursday's practice.

Following back-to-back limited sessions, Parker -- who was inactive Week 14 -- could potentially return to action Sunday against the Chiefs, but he may need to practice fully Friday in order to avoid a Week 15 injury designation. The same applies to fellow WRs Demario Douglas (concussion), JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle), Tyquan Thornton (hamstring) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder), all of whom also were deemed limited Thursday.

Thornton (hamstring) was limited in Thursday's practice.

Thornton practiced fully Wednesday but was added to the Patriots' Week 15 injury report after being limited a day later. Along with Thornton, Demario Douglas (concussion), DeVante Parker (knee), JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) also were listed as limited Thursday. With that in mind, it's possible that five New England wideouts could be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Wicks (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.

Wicks started Week 15 prep with a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report, but he mixed back into drills one day later despite dealing with what the Packers thought was a high-ankle injury after Monday's defeat at the Giants, per Lauren Hembrecht of WFRV Green Bay. If Wicks has such a sprain, he typically would be in line for an absence of some type, but his ability to practice Thursday may mean he has a chance to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers. With Christian Watson (hamstring) not logging any on-field work so far this week and Jayden Reed (ankle) limited, Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Samori Toure currently are the only healthy wide receivers on the Packers' active roster.
