Bateman (foot) was listed as a full participant in practice Thursday.

Bateman downplayed the foot issue that limited him in practice Wednesday, and his return to a full session a day later sets the stage for him to be available Sunday night against the Chargers. Bateman's production thus far has been modest, but there could be some extra targets up for grabs this weekend, with star tight end Mark Andrews out with an ankle injury and top wide receiver Zay Flowers having missed practice Thursday with a hip issue.

Reed caught four of eight targets for 34 yards and a touchdown and added 16 rushing yards on two carries in Thursday's 29-22 win over the Lions.

While it wasn't the most efficient performance, Reed scored a TD for the third straight game, opening the scoring on Green Bay's first possession with a 10-yard strike from Jordan Love. The 2023 second-round pick has totaled 226 scrimmage yards over his three-game touchdown streak, and with the Packers committed to getting him the ball in a variety of ways, Reed appears poised for a big finish to the season.

Flowers (hip) was listed as a non-participant in practice Thursday.

Flowers was limited Wednesday, so his downgrade to 'DNP' a day later is notable. Meanwhile, fellow WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) was limited Thursday, while Rashod Bateman (foot) worked fully. Friday's injury report will add valuable context regarding the chances of the trio all playing Sunday night against the Chargers, but unless Flowers practices fully to close the week, he figures to head into the weekend with an injury designation.

Watson caught five of seven targets for 94 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 29-22 win over the Lions.

The second-year wideout looked as healthy as he's been all season and produced new season highs in catches and receiving yards, capping his performance with a 16-yard TD from Jordan Love late in the third quarter for Green Bay's final points of the day. Watson has gotten into the end zone in back-to-back games, but he could have a hard time extending that streak in Week 13 against a stingy Kansas City secondary.

Guyton (groin) remained limited at practice Thursday.

Guyton was also limited Wednesday, so he may need to practice fully Friday in order to approach Sunday night's game against the Ravens without an injury designation. If he's available this weekend, Guyton -- who was inactive Week 11 -- will have a chance to reclaim a key role in a Chargers' WR corps that also includes PPR stalwart Keenan Allen and 2023 first-rounder Quentin Johnston.

Duvernay (knee) was a full participant at Thursday's practice.

Duvernay landed on the Ravens' injury report due to a knee issue after a limited workload at Wednesday's practice. It now looks like he has moved past the issue and should be set for his usual role as a depth receiving option and special-teams contributor in Week 12, assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Jones (knee) was a full participant at Thursday's practice.

After being limited at Thursday's walkthrough, it now looks like the Eagles were just exercising caution with Jones. The veteran pass catcher's full participation indicates he is on track for Sunday's matchup with the Bills. He saw the field on 31 offensive plays (57 percent) in Week 11 en route to two receptions for five yards.

Allen (shoulder) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday.

Allen was limited Wednesday, but the wideout's upgrade to full participation Thursday paves the way for him to maintain his high-volume role in the Chargers offense Sunday night against the Ravens. Through 10 games, Allen -- who recorded a 10-116-1 line on 16 targets in a Week 11 loss to Green Bay -- is averaging 8.3 catches (on 11.3 targets) for 101.1 yards per game to go along with seven TDs.

Wilson (shoulder) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's practice report, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

The same can be said for Marquise Brown (heel), leaving the statuses of Arizona's top two wide receivers in flux ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Rams. Friday's injury report could be telling for both players' chances to suit up this weekend, but with Zach Pascal (hamstring) also limited Wednesday and Thursday, Rondale Moore, Greg Dortch and Andre Baccellia are the team's healthy WRs on the active roster.

Brown (heel) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's injury report, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Brown's heel issue only emerged Wednesday, when the Cardinals considered him limited. Now that he didn't log any activity one day later, there's a chance he suffered the injury at Wednesday's session, but there's also a chance that Thursday's DNP is a precautionary measure. Ultimately, Arizona may provide some clarity into the situation when it posts its final practice report of the week Friday.
