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.

DeShon Elliott SAF | PIT
Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Questionable for TNF
Elliott (persona) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Elliott did not travel with the team to Cincinnati on Wednesday because he was attending to a personal matter, but he has not been ruled out for Thursday's AFC North tilt. Chuck Clark and Juan Thornhill would be the top candidates to start at safety if Elliott is not cleared to play.

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.

T'Vondre Sweat DT | TEN
Titans' T'Vondre Sweat: Cleared to return to practice
The Titans designated Sweat (ankle) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Sweat suffered an ankle injury during the Titans' Week 1 loss to the Broncos, which was severe enough for him to be placed on injured reserve prior to Tennessee's Week 3 clash against Indianapolis. The 2024 second-rounder has missed the four games required while on IR, and he is eligible to make his return against the Patriots on Sunday. Sweat was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, and he'll likely need to log a full practice over the next two days in order to have a realistic chance at playing against New England.

Zonovan Knight RB | ARI
Cardinals' Bam Knight: Tending to knee issue
Knight was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough due to a knee injury, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
While Michael Carter started this past Sunday's loss at Indianapolis, Knight actually logged more offensive snaps (37-32) and touches (12-11), with the former gaining more yards from scrimmage (64-54) and the latter getting into the end zone once. With a health concern now in tow, though, Knight's status will be watched as the week goes on to see if the scales may tip toward Carter as Arizona continues with a backfield committee in the absences of James Conner (foot, IR) and Trey Benson (knee, IR).

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.

Pharaoh Brown TE | ARI
Pharaoh Brown: Gets opportunity with Arizona
The Cardinals signed Brown to the practice squad Wednesday.
The 31-year-old tight end failed to make the Dolphins' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he'll get another opportunity to see regular-season action as a member of the Cardinals' practice squad. Arizona placed Travis Vokolek on injured reserve Wednesday due to a season-ending neck injury, and with Tip Reiman (ankle) also on IR, Brown would be a candidate to be elevated to the Cardinals' active roster should the team require depth at tight end. Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Walter Nolen are the three tight ends currently on the Cardinals' active roster.

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.
-
Marvin Harrison Jr. WR | ARI
Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Limited at walkthrough
Harrison (concussion) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison was diagnosed with a concussion during this past Sunday's loss at Indianapolis, and while Jonathan Gannon told Dani Sureck of the team's official site on Wednesday that the second-year wide receiver remains in the protocol for head injuries, his limited listing indicates he at least has made some progress through it. In order to play Sunday against the Packers, though, Harrison will need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist. Arizona's receiving corps is particularly banged up at the moment, as Michael Wilson (foot, limited) and Zay Jones (knee, DNP) also are tending to injuries.
