Lazard (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.

The Packers continue to keep Lazard somewhat under wraps on the practice field due to the ankle injury that forced him to sit out the season opener. If he mimics the end of last week, though, he'll head into Sunday's game against the Patriots without an injury designation, which would mean all Packers wide receivers not named Sammy Watkins (hamstring, IR) would be available to quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Meyers (knee) remained limited at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Meyers sat out the Patriots' Week 3 loss to the Ravens, but back-to-back limited practices -- albeit in a limited fashion -- offer hope that he could suit up Sunday against the Packers. That said, unless Meyers practices fully Friday, look for him to head into the weekend officially listed as questionable.

Moore (hamstring) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Moore injured his hamstring in the second practice of Week 1 prep and has yet to suit up in any of the Cardinals' three games on the campaign. He began inching toward a return this week with back-to-back capped sessions, which comes on the heels of coach Kliff Kingsbury telling Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com last Friday that he expected Moore to make his season debut in Week 4 or 5. If he's able to play Sunday in Carolina, Moore may be on a snap count, though that could depend on the state of Arizona's receiving corps with DeAndre Hopkins suspended, A.J. Green (knee) trending toward an absence and Antoine Wesley (hip) on injured reserve.

Smith (back) practiced in full Thursday.

After a limited session Wednesday due to a back issue, Smith handled every practice rep one day later, setting him up to serve as one of the Eagles' starting wide receivers alongside A.J. Brown on Sunday versus the Jaguars. While Smith was blanked on four targets in the season opener, he's since gathered in 15 of 19 targets for 249 yards and one touchdown over the last two games.

Burks (illness) was a full practice participant Thursday, John Glennon of SI.com reports.

Burks' ability to get back on the field without restrictions suggests that the illness that kept him from practicing Wednesday won't affect his availability for Sunday's game in Indianapolis. The rookie first-round pick has seen a steady increase in his workload in each successive game this season, going from playing 37 percent of offensive snaps Week 1, 47 percent in Week 2 and 67 percent in Week 3.

Reynolds (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

Though Reynolds and tight end T.J. Hockenson (foot) returned to the practice field in some capacity Thursday after sitting out Wednesday, the Lions could still be without multiple key options in the passing game Sunday against the Seahawks. All of Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), DJ Chark (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (ankle/shoulder) sat out Thursday's session, leaving their respective statuses in greater question than those of Reynolds or Hockenson. Assuming he can move past his own injury concern, Reynolds could find himself in prime position to build on the 6-96-0 receiving line on 10 targets that he turned in during Detroit's Week 3 loss to Minnesota.

Gallup (knee) practiced in full Thursday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Dating back to last Thursday, Gallup has handled every practice rep, but his season debut has been delayed as he completes the later stages of his recovery from the torn left ACL that he sustained back on Jan. 2. There's hope he'll feel comfortable enough to return to action Sunday against the Commanders, but if he enters the weekend as questionable, a game-time decision likely is in store for Gallup. If he's available to the Cowboys offense, he's expected to work with quarterback Cooper Rush instead of Dak Prescott, who remains in recovery mode from a fractured right thumb.

Jones (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

The rookie wideout has now turned in four straight limited practices dating back to last week, but he might need to put in a full session Friday to avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants. Even if he remains limited Friday, Jones could still have a shot at making his NFL debut this weekend, though he likely wouldn't hold a prominent role on offense right away. The rookie is expected to make his initial impact on special teams as a return man.

Renfrow (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

With back-to-back practice absences so far this week, Renfrow is looking iffy for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Friday's injury report will reveal whether the slot man heads into the weekend with a chance to return to action after missing the Raiders' Week 3 loss to the Titans. In his absence in that contest, Davante Adams, Mack Hollins and Keelan Cole served as Las Vegas' top three wide receiver options.

Davis (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.

After being a limited practice participant Wednesday, Davis was listed as a non-participant Thursday. It remains to be seen whether that's the result of a setback or simply for maintenance purposes, but more context on that front should arrive no later than Friday afternoon, when the Bills post their final injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.
