Mingo (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Mingo's practice participation has been inconsistent since the Cowboys designated the 2023 second-rounder to return from injured reserve Oct. 1. He's opened the week with a limited session Wednesday, but he would give himself a better chance at being reinstated from IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders were he to practice in full over the next two days.

Davis (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Davis has missed the Chargers' last three games due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 3 versus the Broncos, but his activity Wednesday signals he could have a chance to return in Week 7. If he can upgrade to full participation Thursday or Friday, he could even avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Moore (hip/groin) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.

During Monday's 25-24 win at Washington, Moore paid a visit to the sideline tent but played through whatever was bothering him, logging 60 of 64 offensive snaps (94 percent) and hauling in three of five targets for 42 yards and two carries for 10 yards. Afterward, he was admitted to a local hospital for a precautionary medical evaluation, and coach Ben Johnson relayed to Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network on Tuesday that Moore was dealing with a groin injury. The Bears listed hip and groin issues as the reasons for Moore's DNP at Wednesday's walkthrough, so his status bears watching in advance of Sunday's game against the Saints.

The Chiefs signed Brownlee to their practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Brownlee had been on Kansas City's active roster until he was waived Monday. Rather than explore an opportunity elsewhere, the 26-year-old wideout is returning to the Chiefs as a member of the practice squad. Brownlee has played in five of the team's six games so far this season but has drawn just one target on offense while doing most of his work on special teams.

Johnston (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Johnston approached Week 6 action with a questionable tag after logging limited practices Wednesday through Friday, and he was ultimately deemed inactive for the Chargers' 29-27 win over the Dolphins. Johnston now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level ahead of this Sunday's game against the Colts, but the wideout will likely need to practice fully by Friday in order to avoid a Week 7 injury designation.

Oliver (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Oliver has been sidelined for the Titans' last four games due to a knee injury he sustained against the Rams in Week 2. He would have a better chance of being cleared to play against the Patriots on Sunday if he were to log a full practice over the next two days. Julius Chestnut and Chimere Dike will continue to serve as the Titans' top return options on kickoffs and punts if Oliver is not given the green light to suit up against New England.

Meyers (knee/toe) didn't practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

After being on the field for 90 percent of the Raiders' snaps on offense in the team's Week 6 win over the Titans, a game in which Meyers caught all four of his targets for 39 yards, the wideout is managing a pair of injury issues ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Meyers now has two more chances to practice before Las Vegas assigns final Week 7 injury designations.

Dulin did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a chest injury.

Dulin likely picked up the injury during the Colts' 31-27 win over the Cardinals in Week 6, when he returned two kickoffs for 59 yards while playing just one snap on offense. The 28-year-old wideout will have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's road game against the Chargers.

Lazard (personal) is not listed on the Jets' Week 7 injury report.

Lazard didn't travel with the Jets to London last week due to a personal matter and missed the team's 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday as a result. As this weekend's game against the Panthers approaches, Lazard is not on the Jets' injury report, while fellow WRs Garrett Wilson (knee) and Josh Reynolds (hip) are. With that in mind, Lazard could see added opportunities in Week 7 if both Wilson and Reynolds end up on the team's inactive list.

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.
