  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Dealing with toe issue

    Olave was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a toe injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Prior to his listing on the Saints' first practice report of Week 6 prep, Olave had avoided any sort of health concern through five games en route to gathering in 25 of 43 targets for 318 yards and one touchdown. The second-year wide receiver will have two more chances this week to get back to full participation in practice before the team potentially hands him a designation for Sunday's contest at Houston.

  • Patriots' Demario Douglas: Recovering from concussion

    Douglas was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a concussion.

    Douglas was removed from this past Sunday's 34-0 loss to the Saints with what the Patriots labeled as a head injury, but the team's first Week 6 practice report clarifies that the rookie receiver is dealing with a concussion. He'll have to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol within the next few days in order to play Sunday in Las Vegas.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Raiders' Davante Adams: Sits out first Week 6 practice

    Adams (shoulder) is listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

    Adams played through the same injury Monday in a 17-13 win over the Packers, and he'll likely be ready for a matchup with the Patriots this Sunday even if he doesn't practice much (or at all) this week. He drew only four targets against his former team Monday, though he caught all four (for 45 yards) and played 94 percent of the available snaps.

  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Limited on Wednesday's estimate

    Meyers was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report due to a wrist injury, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

    The Raiders didn't practice Wednesday after playing Monday, but Meyers would have been limited had the team held a formal session. Fellow wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant, but at this stage, there's little reason to believe that either of Las Vegas' starting wideouts is in danger of sitting out Sunday against Meyers' former team, the Patriots.

  • Mike Evans WR | SF

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Sits out practice to begin week

    Evans (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Even with the benefit of a Week 5 bye, Evans hasn't made any visible progress through the hamstring injury that forced him to exit early from the Buccaneers' last game Oct. 1 at New Orleans. Prior to his departure, he had put together a 20-337-3 line on 31 targets in three-and-a-half games, putting him on pace for yet another 1,000-yard campaign. Evans will have two more opportunities to get back on the practice field before the team potentially makes a ruling on his availability ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions.

  • Bears' Equanimeous St. Brown: Not able to practice

    St. Brown (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.

    St. Brown had replaced Chase Claypool as Chicago's No. 3 receiver prior to injuring his hamstring during Thursday's 40-20 win over Washington. It's not a role that will likely come with much target volume, regardless of whether St. Brown, Tyler Scott or another player is the one getting snaps in three-receiver sets alongside starting wideouts DJ Moore and Darnell Mooney.

  • Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Officially limited Wednesday

    St. Brown (abdomen) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.

    St. Brown didn't log any on-field work during Week 5 prep before the Lions deemed him inactive ahead of this past Sunday's win over the Panthers. Head coach Dan Campbell expressed optimism about St. Brown's chances of playing Week 6 against the Buccaneers when speaking to Justin Rogers of The Detroit News and Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site earlier this week, and the receiver's return to practice seemingly backs up Campbell's hopefulness. Ultimately, St. Brown likely will need to get through the Lions' next two practices unscathed before the Lions provide some clarity on his status heading into Sunday.

  • Treylon Burks WR | WAS

    Titans' Treylon Burks: Remains sidelined Wednesday

    Burks (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Burks, who has missed two straight games, now has two more opportunities to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens in London. If Burks remains out this weekend, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Chris Moore and Kyle Philips would be in store for expanded roles at receiver behind No. 1 wideout DeAndre Hopkins.

  • Ravens' Odell Beckham: Opens Week 6 with limited practice

    Beckham (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Beckham missed two games due to an ankle injury before returning to action for the Ravens' Week 5 loss to the Steelers. The veteran wide receiver appears to still be bothered by the injury, but he didn't suffer any reported setbacks. Beckham will have two more opportunities to reach full participation and avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

  • Irvin Charles WR | SEA

    Jets' Irvin Charles: Signed to active roster

    The Jets signed Charles to the active roster from the practice squad Wednesday.

    Charles was called up to make his NFL debut versus the Broncos on Sunday, and it looks like he could get another chance to see game action Week 6 against Philadelphia. Against Denver, he failed record any stats and played 20 out of 22 total snaps on special teams.
