Cracraft (calf) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Cracraft suffered the calf injury during Thursday's practice, and while the extent of the issue remains unclear, he'll be sidelined for at least one contest. In his absence, Cedrick Wilson and Erik Ezukanma are candidates for increased snaps behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield.

Raymond (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

After sitting out the Lions' first two practice sessions of the week, Raymond returned to the field Friday in a limited capacity. While Raymond wasn't able to avoid taking a designation into the weekend, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press relays that the receiver is expected to play. However, with the Lions' receiving corps at close to full strength and with rookie first-round Jameson Williams likely to see at least a slight uptick in opportunities after playing only eight snaps on offense in last week's win over the Jaguars in his NFL debut, Raymond's playing time may only drop from here. Raymond already saw his snap count take a significant hit last week, when he was on the field for just 16 percent of the Lions' offensive plays as the team's No. 4 wideout.

Moore (groin) didn't practice Friday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Even with the benefit of a Week 13 bye coupled with a longer turnaround than usual for Week 14 with the Cardinals hosting the Patriots on Monday night, Moore doesn't seem to have made any tangible progress in his recovery from the groin injury he suffered early in the Week 11 loss to the 49ers. Unless Moore is able to get back on the field in some capacity Saturday for the Cardinals' final practice session of the week, he'll likely miss his second straight game Monday.

Hopkins (illness) was a full participant at Friday's walk-through practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Hopkins was held out of the Cardinals' first practice session of the week Thursday due to the ailment, but his ability to take every rep one day later clears up any concern about his status heading into Monday's game against the Patriots. Since debuting in Week 7 after serving a six-game suspension to begin the season, Hopkins has stepped into a high-volume role in the Arizona passing game. In six appearances, Hopkins has cobbled together a 49-574-3 receiving line on 64 targets.

Jeudy (ankle) practiced fully Friday and has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Jeudy has healed up just in time to take on the leading role in a Broncos receiving corps that will be without Courtland Sutton (hamstring). However, since Jeudy was limited to playing just 37 percent of the Broncos' snaps in last week's loss to the Ravens after missing the previous two contests with an ankle injury, it's possible that the 23-year-old has some kind of snap-count restriction this Sunday, albeit a looser one, according to Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com. Slot man Kendall Hinton should also see a fair amount of snaps and targets in a game that could feature a pass-heavy game script for the underdog Broncos.

Metcalf (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Seattle could be without its top two skill-position players Sunday, as both Metcalf and lead back Kenneth Walker (ankle) are listed as questionable due to their respective injuries. Metcalf was a mid-week addition to the injury report after the hip issue resulted in him logging only a limited practice Thursday. More clarity on Metcalf's status will likely come in the hours leading up to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, but if the 24-year-old is sidelined this weekend, Tyler Lockett would serve as the clear No. 1 target for quarterback Geno Smith.

Sutton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

With Sutton unavailable, Kendall Hinton and Brandon Johnson are candidates to log added snaps for the Broncos this weekend alongside Jerry Jeudy (ankle), who profiles as the team's top wideout. Sutton will now target a potential return to action Week 15 against the Cardinals.

Toney (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Toney was limited in practice throughout the week after missing Kansas City's last two games with the hamstring injury. If he suits up Sunday, Toney could be eased back in with a limited workload against the stout Denver secondary to avoid another setback with his frequently injured hamstring.

Bell (thumb/toe) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Scott Ptrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Bell's lack of injury designation is surprising considering the rookie wide receiver was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday before failing to participate in Friday's practice. Assuming Bell is indeed able to play without restrictions, he could be thrust into a larger role given the uncertainty over top wideout Amari Cooper's (hip) availability.

Higgins (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Higgins was limited in practices Thursday and Friday, but he isn't in danger of sitting out. He'll face a Browns team that blew out the Bengals back in Week 8, though Higgins scored one of his five touchdowns this season in that loss.
