  • Cole Holcomb LB | PIT

    Steelers' Cole Holcomb: Still no practice

    Holcomb (illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Holcomb missed the Steelers' Week 9 contest with the same illness. It's not a great sign that he's still sidelined, though he'll still have two days to log some practice activity ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.

  • Dennis Gardeck LB | JAC

    Jaguars' Dennis Gardeck: Nursing chest injury

    Gardeck (chest) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Gardeck likely picked up the injury during the Jaguars' Week 9 overtime win over the Raiders, when he logged five tackles (three solo) while playing 35 snaps (19 on defense, 16 on special teams). The injury wasn't severe enough for him to miss Wednesday's practice entirely, and he'll have two more opportunities to practice in full and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's AFC South tilt against the Texans.

  • Alex Highsmith LB | PIT

    Steelers' Alex Highsmith: Ankle injury pops back up

    Highsmith (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Highsmith had a big performance in Sunday's win over the Colts, logging 2.0 sacks and a forced fumble. However, he was sidelined to begin the week of preparation for a Week 10 matchup against the Chargers. Highsmith missed two games earlier in the season with an ankle issue, so it's possible the injury was aggravated, or he could simply be getting a veteran's day off.

  • Chuck Clark DB | PIT

    Steelers' Chuck Clark: Gets in full practice Wednesday

    Clark (illness) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Clark missed Sunday's game versus the Colts with an illness, but it seems like he's on track to return to action in Week 10. However, with the Steelers' recent acquisition of safety Kyle Dugger via trade, it's not totally clear what role Clark will have against the Chargers on Sunday.

  • Scott Miller WR | PIT

    Steelers' Scotty Miller: Still working through finger injury

    Miller (finger) did not practice Wednesday.

    Miller has missed the Steelers' last two games while recovering from surgery to repair a broken finger. He hasn't practiced since sustaining the injury, and he's unlikely to play against the Chargers on Sunday if he's unable to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days.

  • Steelers' Darnell Washington: Nursing foot injury

    Washington (foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Washington played 52 snaps (41 on offense, 11 on special teams) and logged four catches (on six targets) for 43 yards during the Steelers' Week 9 win over the Colts, but the third-year pro appears to have sustained a foot injury in the process. He'll have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.

  • Kristian Wilkerson: Returning to Buffalo

    The Bills signed Wilkerson to the practice squad Wednesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Wilkerson has returned to Buffalo's practice squad one day after being cut, and he will continue to provide wide receiver depth for the Bills. He appeared in three regular-season games for the Raiders in 2024 and logged two catches (on three targets) for 18 yards and one touchdown.

  • Lonnie Johnson SAF | LV

    Raiders' Lonnie Johnson : Looking likely for season debut

    Johnson (leg) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

    Johnson has been on injured reserve all season after suffering a serious leg injury in training camp. Per McFadden, coach Pete Carroll said he expects Johnson to suit up Thursday, though he'll need to be officially activated from injured reserve first.

  • P.J. Locke SAF | DEN

    Broncos' P.J. Locke: Questionable to play Thursday

    Locke (neck) is questionable to play in Thursday night's contest against the Raiders.

    Locke was able to improve from a non-participant to a full participant at the team's three walkthroughs this week, but he'll ultimately enter Week 10 with an injury designation. The safety missed the team's Week 9 win over the Texans, but his absence carried the greatest impact with the team's special-teams unit.

  • Raiders' Isaiah Pola-Mao: Questionable for TNF

    Pola-Mao (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

    Pola-Mao was listed as a limited practice participant Tuesday and Wednesday (which was a walkthrough) due to a hip issue, and his status for Thursday's game may not be known until the Raiders announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. Tristin McCollum would likely start alongside Jeremy Chinn at safety if Pola-Mao is not cleared to play Week 10.
