Turpin (foot) was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Turpin wasn't spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice, and now his lack of activity has been confirmed. The No. 4 receiver and standout return man is nursing a foot injury sustained during the Cowboys' overtime tie against the Packers in Week 4. He'll have two more opportunities to mix into drills ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

Moore suffered a dislocated elbow in last Sunday's loss to the Patriots, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Moore has since been placed on injured reserve and will be out a minimum of four weeks, but coach Dave Canales relayed Wednesday that Moore will be out for a while, suggesting he's likely to miss more than the minimum four contests. Brycen Tremayne and Jimmy Horn will handle depth receiver duties behind Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette and slot man Hunter Renfrow.

Pearsall (knee) is ruled out for Thursday's game against the Rams, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Pearsall will join fellow wideout Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs) and starting quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) on the sideline Week 5, leaving Mac Jones with the unenviable task of moving an offense that is missing all its top skill-position players aside from running back Christian McCaffery -- with George Kittle (hamstring, IR) and Brandon Aiyuk (ACL, PUP) also sidelined. The second-year wideout is dealing with what has been labeled a minor PCL injury. Pearsall and company will work to get healthy in time to retake the field Sunday, Oct. 12 against the Buccaneers in Week 6.

Jennings (ankle, ribs) is ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Rams, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Jennings is one of multiple key offensive starters ruled out for Thursday Night Football, joining Brock Purdy (toe) and Ricky Pearsall (knee). With George Kittle (hamstring) still on IR, that positions Mac Jones to command a heavily depleted offense Week 5 alongside running back Christian McCaffrey. Jennings' next chance to take the field will come Sunday, Oct. 12 versus the Buccaneers in Week 6.

Pierce (concussion) practiced fully Wednesday.

Pierce didn't practice last week before being ruled out for this past Sunday's loss to the Rams, but his full participation Wednesday has him trending toward a return to action this weekend against the Raiders. With that in mind, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star noted that Pierce -- who has recorded a 9/171/0 receiving line on 13 targets through three games -- sported a blue jersey during Wednesday's session, a sign that the wideout is in the final step of the NFL's concussion protocol.

Legette (hamstring) was a full participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.

Legette looks set to return from his two-game absence and take the field Sunday versus the Dolphins. Head coach Dave Canales confirmed as much, saying Wednesday that "we are getting [Legette] back" for Week 5. The second-year pro drew 15 combined targets across Carolina's first two regular-season games but was tremendously unproductive with those opportunities, totaling just eight receiving yards. He'll rejoin Tetairoa McMillan and Hunter Renfrow as a starter in three-wide sets versus Miami and look to display better chemistry with quarterback Bryce Young.

Bond is positioned for increased opportunities alongside Jerry Jeudy following the placement of Cedric Tillman (hamstring) on IR, Dan Labbe of cleveland.com reports.

Bond led the Browns with 58 yards during the team's loss to the Lions in Week 4, securing three of six targets. That production came with Tillman playing just 15 offensive snaps due to his hamstring injury, which portends Bond stepping into a key role in his absence, beginning Sunday against the Vikings. Still, even as the clear No. 2 receiver in Cleveland as long as Tillman is sidelined, for Bond to attain consistent fantasy value the Browns' passing game will need to take a step forward with rookie third-round pick Dillon Gabriel taking over under center.

Turpin (foot) was not spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Turpin is reportedly managing a foot injury sustained during the Cowboys' overtime tie with the Packers in Week 4, making him uncertain for Sunday's road matchup against the winless Jets. If Turpin ends up missing any time, Jalen Tolbert will handle an increased workload on offense alongside George Pickens, as well as in the return game.

Coach Brian Schottenheimer said Wednesday that Lamb (ankle) is "progressing well," but the Cowboys will "see how the week goes" before making a decision on his status for Week 5, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Despite reports that Lamb suffered a high left-ankle sprain during a Week 3 loss at Chicago, the Cowboys waited until last Friday to rule out the wide receiver for this past Sunday's eventual tie with the Packers. It remains to be seen if the team proceeds in a similar manner this week, but Lamb technically will have three chances to mix into drills before Friday's practice report potentially clarifies his availability for Sunday's game at the Jets. Per Machota, Lamb was spotted doing rehab work without a walking boot during Wednesday's practice.

Coach Shane Steichen said Pierce (concussion) will practice Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

It's unclear if Pierce remains in the concussion protocol after being deemed inactive for the Colts' Week 3 loss to the Rams, but his return to practice Wednesday suggests Pierce has a good chance to play Sunday against the Raiders. He would resume his role on the outside as the Colts' primary deep threat after Adonai Mitchell blundered away a walk-in touchdown against Los Angeles.
