Charlie Jones WR | CIN
Bengals' Charlie Jones: Chance to play vs. Pittsburgh
Jones (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice and is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Steelers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Jones was able to overcome an Achilles injury to play in Sunday's 27-18 loss to the Packers, but he picked up a rib injury in the process. He was able to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity, giving him a chance to play in Thursday's AFC North bout. Jermaine Burton and Samaje Perine would likely serve as the Bengals' returners on kickoffs and punts if Jones is not cleared to suit up.

Zay Jones WR | ARI
Cardinals' Zay Jones: No activity at walkthrough
Jones (knee) didn't take part in Wednesday's walkthrough, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Jones took advantage of the early exit of Marvin Harrison in the second quarter of Sunday's defeat in Indianapolis due to a concussion. Overall, Jones' 79 percent snap share represented a season high, and he parlayed a campaign-best eight targets into five catches for 79 yards and no touchdowns. Jones was limited in all three Week 6 practices due to a knee issue, so his absence Wednesday could be related to maintenance. With Marvin Harrison (concussion) and Michael Wilson (foot) also tending to health concerns this week, the trio will be monitored closely to get a sense of who among them may be available Sunday against the Packers.

Dyami Brown WR | JAC
Jaguars' Dyami Brown: Limited in practice
Brown (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
It's presumably the same shoulder injury that Brown played through in Jacksonville's past two games (after missing Week 4). He has just 18 receiving yards on nine targets since returning to the lineup, perhaps leaving the door open for Parker Washington to get more snaps alongside Brian Thomas and Travis Hunter.

Dalevon Campbell: Gets opportunity with Bolts
The Chargers signed Campbell (hamstring) to the practice squad Wednesday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.
Carolina waived Campbell from injured reserve Friday, but the 23-year-old wideout appears to be past his hamstring issue. He was originally signed by the Chargers as an undrafted free agent in April but was waived at the end of training camp in late August, which led to the Panthers claiming the South Carolina product off waivers.

Michael Wilson WR | ARI
Cardinals' Michael Wilson: Tending to foot issue
Wilson was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a foot injury, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Wilson made a brief exit from this past Sunday's loss in Indianapolis due to a finger injury but was able to finish out the contest en route to four catches (on five targets) for 44 yards. The reason for his practice limitations Wednesday thus is a new health concern that will need to be watched as the week continues. Aside from Wilson, Arizona's receiving corps is banged-up at the moment, as Marvin Harrison (concussion) also was limited Wednesday, while Zay Jones (knee) didn't take part at all.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | GB
Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Limited in practice
Wicks (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Wicks suffered an ankle injury during this past Sunday's win against the Bengals, but his ability to handle some reps to kick off Week 7 prep generally is a good sign that it isn't a long-term concern. Having said that, he likely will need to practice fully by Friday in order to avoid heading into the weekend without a designation for Sunday's road matchup with the Cardinals.
-
Christian Watson WR | GB
Packers' Christian Watson: Another limited session
Watson (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.
Watson now has strung together four consecutive capped sessions going back to last week since the Packers designated him to return from the reserve/PUP list. He wasn't cleared to suit up this past Sunday against the Bengals, and his status remains up in the air in advance of a Week 7 visit to Arizona. Considering he hasn't logged a full practice yet, Watson may need to do so in order to have a chance to play on gameday.
-
Darnell Mooney WR | ATL
Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Listed as limited
Mooney (hamstring) is listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
The Falcons didn't practice Wednesday, but the listing suggests Mooney will participate later this week. He hasn't practiced since injuring his hamstring during a Week 4 win over Washington.
-
Bryson Green WR | ARI
Bryson Green: Back with Cardinals on PS
The Cardinals signed Green to the practice squad Wednesday.
The undrafted rookie was part of Arizona's 90-man training camp roster but was unable to crack the 53-man version in late August. Green has returned to the Cardinals as a member of the practice squad and would be a top candidate to be elevated to the active roster should the Cardinals require depth at wide receiver.

KaVontae Turpin WR | DAL
Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Returns as limited participant
Turpin (foot) was a limited participant Wednesday in his return to practice, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
This is Turpin's first participation in a practice or game since Week 4, and it comes on the same day as CeeDee Lamb's (ankle) return to practice. The Cowboys still have a lengthy injury report, but things are at least trending upward on the offensive side, with G Tyler Booker (ankle) also returning to practice Wednesday.
