  • Dareke Young WR | LV

    Seahawks' Dareke Young: Logs another full practice

    Young (quadriceps) logged a full practice Wednesday, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.

    Young hasn't suited up since Week 7 but returned to practice last week. He's practiced in full ever since, seemingly setting him up to be activated ahead of Seattle's Week 15 matchup against the Colts.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LV

    Raiders' Alex Bachman: Limited to open week

    Bachman (thumb) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Bachman was unable to play against the Broncos in Week 14 due to a thumb injury. His ability to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery, and he'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

  • Ray-Ray McCloud: Gets cut from practice squad

    The Giants cut McCloud from their practice squad Wednesday, Dan Salomone and Matt Citak of the team's official site report.

    The Giants also released cornerback Myles Purchase from their practice squad, signing instead veteran punter Cameron Johnston and wide receiver Xavier Gipson. McCloud will become an unrestricted free agent.

  • Xavier Gipson WR | NYG

    Xavier Gipson: Officially joins Giants practice squad

    The Giants signed Gipson to their practice squad Wednesday, Dan Salomone & Matt Citak of the team's official site reports.

    Gipson has had a roller-coaster season. He began the campaign with the Jets before being waived Sept. 10. The wideout subsequently was claimed by the Giants, who then released him nine days later. Gipson ultimately landed with the Eagles and got into five games with them, totaling two catches on two targets for six yards while also contributing as a kick and punt returner before being cut Dec. 7. He'll now get a second look from the Giants, and if he's elevated for Sunday's matchup versus Washington, Gipson could be deployed as the team's lead return man, as Gunner Olszewski is currently in concussion protocol and was unable to practice Wednesday.

  • Chiefs' Nikko Remigio: Logs full practice Wednesday

    Remigio (concussion) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.

    Remigio missed Sunday's game versus the Texans with what was listed as a shoulder injury, and it's not clear if the concussion listing is related. Either way, it now appears he's trending toward suiting up in Week 15 versus the Chargers.

  • Raiders' Dont'e Thornton: Limited practice Wednesday

    Thornton (concussion) was limited at practice Wednesday.

    Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com previously indicated that Thornton -- who was inactive in Week 14 -- had cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, but the wideout was nonetheless deemed limited Wednesday. He'll have two more opportunities to upgrade his participation level before the Raiders assign game statuses for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

  • Ladd McConkey WR | LAC

    Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Logs limited practice Wednesday

    McConkey (foot) was limited at practice Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    McConkey was on the field for 86 percent of the Chargers' snaps on offense in Monday's 22-19 overtime win over the Eagles en route to catching just one of his five targets for 12 yards. Assuming the wideout's foot issue doesn't affect his Week 15 status, McConkey is a bounce-back candidate Sunday against the Chiefs, with QB Justin Herbert, who played through a left hand injury versus Philadelphia, noting Wednesday that he's in a healthier spot than he was this time last week.

  • Xavier Weaver WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Xavier Weaver: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Weaver (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Both Weaver and Marvin Harrison (heel) sat out drills to begin Week 14 prep, meaning Michael Wilson and Andre Baccellia are the only healthy wide receivers on the Cardinals' active roster at the moment. The team elevated Jalen Brooks and Trent Sherfield from the practice squad for this past Sunday's game against the Rams, and similar transactions likely will come to pass if one or both of Harrison and Weaver are sidelined again Sunday at Houston. Ultimately, Weaver likely will need to practice Thursday and/or Friday in order to have a chance to suit up this weekend.

  • Pat Bryant WR | DEN

    Broncos' Pat Bryant: Misses practice Wednesday

    Bryant (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    A hamstring issue limited Bryant this past Thursday and Friday, but the wideout approached Week 14 action without an injury designation before recording a 47 percent offensive snap share in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Raiders, a game in which he caught all four of his targets for 32 yards. With no reported setbacks, it's possible that Bryant's DNP on Wednesday was maintenance-related. Added context on that front will arrive via the Broncos' next injury report.

  • Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Opens week as DNP

    Olszewski (concussion) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

    Olszewski suffered a concussion in Week 13 against New England after taking a big helmet-to-helmet hit on a kick return. Despite New York being on bye last week, the return specialist hasn't yet reached the point that he's ready to practice. Olszewski will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol before he's able to return to game action, and if he can't play this Sunday versus the Commanders, Devin Singletary, Eric Gray and Jalin Hyatt are candidates to cover his role in the return game.
