Brown (knee) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Rams. Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

If he's able to go Sunday, he'll work in tandem with fellow starting wideout Julio Jones, who does not carry a Week 9 injury designation. The Titans figure to lean heavily on the duo -- when they are both healthy -- in the coming weeks, with star running back Derrick Henry on IR and out indefinitely with a foot injury.

Lamb (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos but is expected to play, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Along with Lamb, fellow starting wideout Amari Cooper (hamstring) is listed as questionable, but neither player looks at major risk of missing the Week 9 contest. After sitting out Thursday's practice, Lamb took part in Friday's walk-through session, and he's expected to be on the field again Saturday for an unofficial practice. Assuming he avoids the inactive list, Lamb will have the luxury of working with Dak Prescott, who enters the weekend without an injury designation after sitting out last week's win over the Vikings with a calf injury.

Adams (illness) confirmed that he'll play Sunday in Kansas City after the Packers reinstated him from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

After testing positive for the virus Oct. 25 and sitting out the Packers' Week 8 win over the Cardinals, Adams cleared all health and safety protocols Thursday and rejoined the team for practice, though he appeared to be mostly limited to conditioning work, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. Adams was likely able to ramp up his activity Friday, and he expressed confidence that he'll be good to go Sunday, even though he experienced headaches and body chills while he battled the virus. While the star wideout looks like a strong fantasy option Week 9 against a hapless Chiefs pass defense, Adams' outlook is less bright than usual with Jordan Love stepping in under first center for his first NFL start in place of Aaron Rodgers (illness), who is ineligible to play this week after testing positive for the virus Wednesday.

The Dolphins placed Parker (shoulder/hamstring) on injured reserve Friday.

With Parker now officially in line to miss at least three games and Will Fuller (finger) still on IR, the Dolphins are left with Jaylen Waddle, Albert Wilson, Preston Williams, Mack Hollins and Isaiah Ford as their current healthy wideouts.

Parker (shoulder/hamstring) is expected to be placed on IR by the Dolphins, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.

Look for the move to become official later Friday, but in the wake of an injury setback, Parker is now on track to miss the Dolphins' next three games. In his anticipated absence, Jaylen Waddle, Albert Wilson, Preston Williams, Mack Hollins and Isaiah Ford are the team's current healthy wideout options.

Harry (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Harry was added to the injury report Friday, which suggests the injury may have occurred in practice this week. His status for this clash of defensive-minded opponents is unlikely to cause much of a stir in the fantasy realm either way, as New England's disappointing 2019 first-round pick hasn't totaled more than 30 receiving yards in a game this season.

Atlanta placed Ridley (personal) on the reserve/non-football injury list Friday.

The transaction means that Ridley won't be eligible to play for the next three weeks, making the Falcons' Nov. 28 game against the Jaguars the earliest possible return date for the wideout. Whether Ridley returns to action when first eligible Week 12 is uncertain, as the Falcons intend to give him as much time off as he needs after he acknowledged in a post on his personal Twitter account Oct. 31 that he's taking a break from football to focus on his mental well-being.

Toney (thumb) was listed as a limited participant at Friday's practice, but he'll enter Sunday's game against the Raiders without an injury designation, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Though Toney's reps were capped Thursday and Friday while he recovered from a thumb laceration suffered in Monday's loss to the Chiefs, the rookie wideout doesn't look as though he'll face any restrictions Week 9. The Giants have already ruled out two of their top pass catchers in Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) and Saquon Barkley (ankle), while No. 1 receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) is listed as questionable but isn't a lock to put an end to a three-game absence this weekend. With all that in mind, Toney should operate as one of the top targets Sunday for quarterback Daniel Jones.

Shepard (quadriceps) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Shepard wasn't able to practice in any fashion this week after straining his left quad in Monday's loss to the Chiefs, so he'll be be inactive for a fourth time this season during the Week 9 contest. Among the six receivers currently on the 53-man roster, only Kadarius Toney, Darius Slayton and Collin Johnson will enter the weekend without designations, as Kenny Golladay (knee) and John Ross (quadriceps) are listed as questionable. With a bye on tap Week 10, Shepard will hope to return to the lineup for a Nov. 22 game in Tampa Bay in Week 11.

Bateman (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Bateman was unable to practice Friday due to a groin issue, though coach John Harbaugh said the injury isn't serious, and the wideout still has "a real good chance" to play Sunday. The rookie first-round pick missed the first five games of the season with a groin injury, and it's unclear if he's managing an aggravation of that issue of if he's dealing with an entirely new injury altogether.
