Noah Brown WR | WAS
Texans' Noah Brown: Questionable for Sunday
Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos after missing practice Friday.
Brown, who has been sidelined for two straight contests, logged limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before being downgraded to no activity Friday. The wideout's status for this weekend's contest thus is cloudy, though fortunately for those interested in utilizing either Brown or Tank Dell (calf, questionable) in Week 13 fantasy lineups, the Texans kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday.

Zach Pascal WR | NYG
Cardinals' Zach Pascal: Questionable for Sunday
Pascal (personal) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Also per Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com, Pascal is not traveling with the Cardinals on Friday but is expected to join the team again Saturday. That would suggest he'll probably play in Week 13, but if he can't, it will likely mean more playing time for Andre Baccellia.

Tank Dell WR | HOU
Texans' Tank Dell: Questionable against Broncos
Dell (calf) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Dell was limited in practice Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's session. The rookie wide receiver picked up the calf injury in the Week 12 loss to Jacksonville, but coach DeMeco Ryans expressed confidence during the week that Dell would be available come Sunday. With Dell and Noah Brown (knee) both listed as questionable, a full picture of Houston's receiving corps against the Broncos likely won't materialize until 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Michael Woods II WR | DEN
Browns' Michael Woods: Gets six-game ban
Woods (Achilles) was handed a six-game suspension Friday for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
While taking part in an offseason workout with quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) in April, Woods suffered a ruptured Achilles, so he already was out for the season. Now, Woods won't get a paycheck for the final six games of the campaign following the suspension. Considering the timing of the injury, the 2022 sixth-round pick may be healthy by the start of the 2024 offseason program, with five catches (on 10 targets) for 45 yards in 10 career appearances to date.

Marvin Mims WR | DEN
Broncos' Marvin Mims: Cleared to play vs. Texans
Mims (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Texans, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Mims avoided the Broncos' final Week 13 injury report by upgrading to full practice participation Friday after a pair of limited sessions. The rookie out of Oklahoma should continue to work as Denver's return man on special teams while filling a depth role at wide receiver. Mims has caught more than two passes in a game only once in his young career while chipping in one receiving touchdown and one kick return touchdown.

Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Cleared to play Week 13
Jeudy (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Texans, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Jeudy ramped up his practice activity as the week unfolded, and his full participation Friday helped the receiver avoid an injury designation altogether. After posting career highs with 972 receiving yards and six touchdowns last season, Jeudy has just 440 yards and one touchdown in 10 appearances, but he remains locked into a starting role across from Courtland Sutton.

Demario Douglas WR | NE
Patriots' Demario Douglas: Won't face Chargers on Sunday
Douglas (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Douglas, who was forced out of the team's Week 12 loss to the Giants due to a concussion, didn't practice this week, and now that he's been deemed unavailable versus L.A., he'll target a potential return to action next Thursday against the Steelers. In Douglas' absence, DeVante Parker, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton are slated to lead New England's wide receiver corps Sunday.
-
Keenan Allen WR | LAC
Chargers' Keenan Allen: Listed as questionable
Allen (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots after logging a limited practice Friday.
After missing practice Wednesday and Thursday due to a quadriceps injury, Allen returned to a limited session Friday, which gives the Chargers' high-volume wideout a chance to suit up this weekend. Fortunately for those inclined to utilize Allen in Week 13 fantasy lineups, the team kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday.

Julio Jones WR | PHI
Eagles' Julio Jones: Avoids injury designation
Jones (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Jones took over the No. 3 receiver role Week 11 against the Chiefs, playing 57 percent of snaps in a 21-17 Eagles victory. He then went up to 71 percent last week against the Bills even with Quez Watkins returning from injured reserve, but all the playing time hasn't led to much production. Jones had only three catches for five yards on five targets the past two weeks, after hauling in two passes for 11 yards and a TD through his first three games with the Eagles. If he doesn't start to catch some passes, the team might eventually shift back to Watkins and/or Olamide Zaccheaus in the No. 3 role.

A.J. Brown WR | NE
Eagles' A.J. Brown: Cleared for flight
Brown (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
TE Dallas Goedert (arm) is listed as doubtful, but Jalen Hurts otherwise will have his favorite pass catchers available after all of them had practice restrictions early in the week. There's been no indication that Brown's thigh injury is serious enough to limit his workload, and he managed at least limited participation in each practice this week.
