Humphries (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Saints, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

In his continued absence, added Week 16 snaps behind the team's top wide receivers, A.J. Brown and Corey Davis, will be available for Tajae Sharpe. Humphries thus will target a potential return to action Week 17 against the Texans.

Though Smith-Schuster practiced fully Friday, he acknowledged that his knee isn't 100 percent and isn't sure if he'll play Sunday against the Jets, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

We'll circle back on Smith-Schuster's status later Friday, but despite his full practice participation, it looks like he could well be listed as questionable on the Steelers' final Week 16 injury report in advance of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chark (ankle) is considered questionable for Sunday's game in Atlanta but is expected to play, Hays Carlyon of 1010 AM WJXL Jacksonville reports.

Chark has been working as a limited practice participant this week, and it appears he'll return to action Week 16 after missing last week's win over the Raiders. The 23-year-old should reclaim his status as Jacksonville's top wideout, though it's still worth checking in on his availability ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Samuel (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Indianapolis, with coach Perry Fewell saying he expects the wide receiver to play, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Samuel's practice routine hinted at trouble, as he was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant before downgrading to non-participation Friday. The Panthers don't seem too concerned about his knee injury, but fantasy managers should nonetheless look out for the team's inactive list prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Between the knee injury and quarterback Will Grier making his first NFL start, Samuel comes with some major drawbacks for the final two weeks of what has already been an inconsistent and disappointing season.

Samuel (knee) did not take part in Friday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Samuel's practice participation decreased for the second day in a row, which certainly is not a good sign with Sunday's matchup with the Colts drawing closer at the same time. The Panthers will provide an official update on Samuel's status for Week 16 when their final injury report of the week is released.

Arcega-Whiteside (foot) is expected to play Sunday against the Cowboys, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

The 22-year-old was limited at Thursday's practice due to the foot injury, but coach Doug Pederson said that was just a precautionary measure. Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward may finish the season as the Eagles' top two wide receivers, with Alshon Jeffery (foot) already on injured reserve and Nelson Agholor (knee) potentially being shut down.

Anderson (illness) will practice on a limited basis Friday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Anderson sat out Thursday's session due to his illness, but it appears that will be the extent of his absence. It remains to be seen if Anderson will show up on the Jets' final injury report of the week, but with him back at practice Friday, he's presumably on track to take the field Sunday against the Steelers.

Head coach Doug Pederson said Friday morning that Agholor (knee) could be shut down for the season, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Agholor remains unable to practice, and while Pederson is "still hopeful" he will play again this season, the soreness in his knee is apparently not getting any better, and could in fact be getting worse. Agholor has not been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys as of yet, but Pederson's comments don't provide much hope that he will take the field.

Kirk (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday, Scott Bordow of The Athletic reports.

Kirk's ankle issue has followed him throughout the season, limiting him some last week before keeping him off the practice field entirely Wednesday. Back in the fold Thursday, he's on the right path to rid himself of the injury by the end of the week. Even if he doesn't, though, he's managed to log at least 86 percent of the offensive snaps in seven consecutive games, racking up a 37-407-3 line on 56 targets during that stretch.

Renfrow (rib) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Renfrow's reps were capped for the second straight day, but he told Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area after the session that he expects to put an end to a three-game absence Sunday versus the Chargers. If Renfrow's prediction comes to pass and he suits up this weekend, he'll likely be forced to play through some pain while he deals with the residual effects of a fractured rib. The Raiders will see what Renfrow is able to do at Friday's practice before assessing his odds of playing in Los Angeles.
