The Titans don't list Brown (undisclosed) on the initial Week 1 injury report the team released Thursday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Tennessee had been managing Brown's reps as recently as last week after he suffered what was believed to be a minor injury in an Aug. 28 session, but his absence from this week's injury report confirms that he's moved past the issue. After averaging an impressive 12.5 yards on 84 targets as a rookie, Brown may struggle to maintain that level of efficiency in 2020, but he should be able to make up for any downturn by taking on more overall volume in the Tennessee passing game. That said, a run-oriented Titans offense headlined by reigning NFL rushing champion Derrick Henry may limit Brown's target count relative to some of the other No. 1 receivers around the league.

Aiyuk (hamstring) was limited in practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Aiyuk took the first step toward being available Week 1 after dealing with a mild left hamstring strain during the later stages of training camp. He seems to have a far better chance of suiting up Week 1 versus the Cardinals that Deebo Samuel (foot), who has yet to practice this week. Friday's injury report could clear up the situation once and for all, but in the end the 49ers' aren't required to make a final decision on Samuel or Aiyuk until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Samuel (foot) was held out of practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

This marks the second day in a row in which Samuel didn't get on the field, hurting his chances of being available Sunday against the Cardinals. Friday's injury report could reveal the 49ers' decision regarding the wide receiver for Week 1, but ultimately they don't need to make the final call until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. An absence from Samuel would elevate Kendrick Bourne and Trent Taylor to bigger roles to start the season.

Moore (finger) is not practicing Thursday, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Moore has now missed back-to-back practices to begin the regular season. The depth wideout continues to progress in his recovery from a fractured finger suffered mid-August. His chances of suiting up against the Browns on Sunday appear silm.

The United States Department of Justice announced Thursday that Bellamy (shoulder) was arrested on multiple fraud charges for his alleged participation in a scheme to receive loans intended for COVID-19 relief.

Bellamy's arrest comes one day after he was released by the Jets in a decision that was believed to be related to the season-ending shoulder injury he suffered in May. According to the report, Bellamy received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan worth than $1.2 million for his entertainment company, with the Department of Justice alleging that the 31-year-old used the proceeds of the loan for personal rather than business use. Bellamy was scheduled to appear in a Florida court Thursday in connection with the charges.

Sutton will undergo an MRI on the shoulder he injured during Thursday's practice, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Sutton was unable to finish Thursday's session after hurting himself while making a catch. The wideout's status must now be carefully monitored as Monday night's game against the Titans approaches. If Sutton is limited or out in Week 1, added looks would be available for rookie starter Jerry Jeudy, as well as Tim Patrick and DaeSean Hamilton.

Reagor (shoulder) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Reagor was initially expected to miss much of September after injuring his left shoulder in an Aug. 30 practice, but the rookie first-round pick has progressed far faster than the Eagles anticipated. After following up his limited showing in practice Wednesday with a full workout Thursday, Reagor suddenly looks poised to play in Sunday's season opener at Washington. If he does in fact get the green light to make his debut this weekend, Reagor could still be subjected to a restricted snap count, given how recently removed he is from the shoulder injury. That said, Reagor's availability in any capacity would be a big boon to an Eagles pass-catching corps that will likely be without Alshon Jeffery (foot), who missed his second straight practice Thursday.

Davis (hamstring) was limited at practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

We'll have to see if Davis upgrades to full participation in advance of Monday night's game against the Broncos, but John Glennon of The Athletic isn't surprised to see the wideout's name on the Titans' initial injury report. Per Glennon, Davis' hamstring "seems to nag at him at least a few weeks of every season." Assuming he's a go in Week 1, Davis is slated to start opposite top option A.J. Brown, who heads into the team's opener minus an injury designation.

Johnson (foot) didn't practice Thursday.

Per Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, this is a new issue for Johnson, who is one of just two players listed on the Steelers' initial Week 1 injury report. Johnson will have two more chances to return to practice in advance of Monday night's game against the Giants. James Washington would be in line for added work behind top wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster in Pittsburgh's opener if Johnson ends up limited or out.

Sutton was forced out of practice early Thursday with an apparent shoulder injury, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

Per the report, the Broncos' top wideout "stayed down for moment" after making a catch in practice. He then "shook his right shoulder a little bit" before heading to the locker room with a trainer. Look for an update on Sutton's status no later than when the team's Thursday injury report is posted.
