Mingo (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota.

Mingo was a limited practice participant throughout the week after his early exit from last Sunday's loss to Seattle. Joe Person of The Athletic reports that the rookie shed his red, no-contact jersey for Friday's practice -- a clear sign of progress even if he doesn't end up playing this week. Terrace Marshall ended up playing a vast majority of snaps last Sunday in Seattle, though both he and Mingo look to be behind Adam Thielen and DJ Chark when it comes to both target volume and production.

Green was not targeted with a pass during Thursday's 34-20 win over Green Bay.

While Green was not targeted with a pass, he has seen his offensive playing time increase in three consecutive weeks while 33-year-old veteran Marvin Jones has seen his role decline. However, Green has yet to see a target since Week 2, and he will need to log more than 21 percent of the offensive snaps he saw Thursday to garner fantasy relevance.

Ali (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Jaguars, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

This was already expected after it was reported Ali wouldn't travel with the team to London to face Jacksonville. Ali has yet to play in a game this season after being a healthy scratch each of the first three contests.

Ezukanma (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Buffalo, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Ezukanma will miss a second consecutive game as a result of this injury. His next chance to take the field will come at home against the Giants in Week 5. Miami's offense leads the league with 43.3 PPG through three games, but the 2022 fourth-round pick hasn't contributed much to that total. Ezukanma has drawn just one target in 2023 while rushing five times for 22 yards.

Jones was targeted once but did not catch a pass during Thursday's 34-20 win over Green Bay.

After logging over half of the offensive snaps in Week 1, Jones has seen his snap share decline with each passing week. With Josh Reynolds and Kalif Raymond effectively complementing top receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and tight end Sam LaPorta, there's no reason to expect Jones' usage to spike anytime soon. The return of Jameson Williams (suspension) in Week 7 will make it even harder for the veteran wideout to make a dent in the box score.

Beckham (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Friday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Fellow wideout Rashod Bateman (hamstring) also sat out Friday's session, with neither player having practiced this week. If one or both receivers are ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Nelson Agholor and Devin Duvernay would be in line for added snaps this weekend alongside No. 1 wideout Zay Flowers.

Jones (thumb) won't play Sunday against the Titans, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Jones will be sidelined for the first time in his young NFL career. The rookie wide receiver has just one catch for six yards on two targets through three games, but Jones has provided a spark in the return game, as he took a punt return to the house from 81 yards out in Week 2. With Jones sidelined in Tennessee, Chris Evans or Trayveon Williams will likely return kickoffs, while Trenton Irwin handles punt returns.

Bateman (hamstring) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Odell Beckham (ankle) was also sitting out the session, and with neither wideout having practiced in any capacity this week, both appearance to be trending toward absences Sunday against the Browns. The Ravens will release their final Week 4 injury report later Friday, when it will be known whether Bateman is ruled out prior to Sunday or if he'll carry a questionable or doubtful designation into the contest.

Cracraft (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Buffalo, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Cracraft's absence this weekend comes as no surprise after prior reports suggested that the wide receiver could be a candidate for injured reserve. On the bright side for the Dolphins, all signs point to Jaylen Waddle (concussion) returning against the Bills after he sat out the team's 70-20 win over the Broncos in Week 3.

Brown (thumb) will practice Friday but could end up a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup with the 49ers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Brown is dealing with a thumb injury that doesn't require surgery, and while he might be able to play through the issue, it's not ideal that he was a mid-week addition to the injury report Thursday, when he was a limited participant in practice. Between the matchup with an elite defense and the possibility of an injured thumb making it tougher to catch passes, Brown holds less fantasy appeal than usual despite posting a 5-61-1 receiving line against Dallas last week.
