Billy Bowman Jr. SAF | ATL
Falcons' Billy Bowman: On track for Week 10 return
Bowman (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
The rookie fourth-rounder has missed the last four games while nursing a hamstring injury, but his ability to practice in full Wednesday indicates that he is on track to return against the Colts on Sunday. Bowman had a sizeable role in the Falcons' secondary prior to his injury, so his return could result in Dee Alford reverting to a depth role and special teams contributor.

Will Anderson Jr. DE | HOU
Texans' Will Anderson: Doesn't participate in practice
Anderson (quadriceps) didn't participate in Houston's practice Wednesday.
Anderson popped up on the injury report Wednesday, though it's currently unclear how he injured his quadriceps. The 2023 first-round pick has recorded 24 tackles (16 solo), including 6.0 sacks, across eight outings but is now in danger of missing his first game of the campaign if he can't suit up for Sunday's game versus Jacksonville.

Malcolm Rodriguez LB | DET
Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Limited at practice
Rodriguez (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Rodriguez was able to continue his stretch of limited sessions as he works his way back from the torn ACL he suffered last November. The linebacker still has more than 10 days left in his 21-day practice window, and he will have two more chances to log a full practice this week ahead of Sunday's contest against Washington.

Jack Stoll TE | NO
Saints' Jack Stoll: Turns in limited practice
Stoll (ankle) logged a limited practice Wednesday.
Stoll was diagnosed with a high ankle sprain following Sunday's loss to the Rams and is considered week-to-week. That makes it surprising that he practiced in any capacity Wednesday, though he is still likely a long shot to play in Week 10 against the Panthers.

Casey Washington WR | ATL
Falcons' Casey Washington: Past back injury
Washington (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
A back injury prevented Washington from playing against the Patriots in Week 9, but his ability to practice in full indicates that he is on track to play against the Colts on Sunday. The second-year wideout has caught six passes on 14 targets for 94 yards across five regular-season games, and his return could result in a dip in offensive snaps for David Sills and KhaDarel Hodge.

Christian Harris LB | HOU
Texans' Christian Harris: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Harris (shin) didn't participate in Houston's practice Wednesday.
Harris is still dealing with the shin injury that forced him to exit early from the team's Week 9 loss to the Broncos. Jake Hansen and Jamal Hill would likely see increased playing time Sunday versus Jacksonville if Harris ends up being unable to suit up.

Haason Reddick OLB | TB
Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Still sidelined by ankle issue
Reddick (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
Reddick was sidelined in Week 8 with knee and ankle issues, and was diagnosed with an ankle sprain. That he's still sidelined isn't a positive sign for his availability in Week 10 against the Patriots, but he still has the chance to increase his involvement in the next two days.

Cordale Flott CB | NYG
Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Back at practice Wednesday
Flott (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flott was held out of practice during Week 9 prep due to a concussion he sustained in Week 8 against the Eagles. He was cleared to return to practice Wednesday as a non-contact participant, an indication that he is progressing through the league's five-step concussion protocol. Flott will need to pass an evaluation from an independent neurologist in order to be cleared to play Sunday against the Bears.
-
Kerby Joseph SAF | DET
Lions' Kerby Joseph: Misses practice Wednesday
Joseph (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
Joseph has missed two straight games while nursing the knee injury he suffered in Week 6, and he was unable to return to practice to open the week. The safety will have two more shots to practice in some capacity prior to Sunday's matchup with the Commanders.
-
Jacob Parrish CB | TB
Buccaneers' Jacob Parrish: Full session Wednesday
Parrish (oblique) practiced in full Wednesday.
Parrish suffered an oblique injury in Week 8 against the Saints. However, he benefitted from the bye week and looks to be in line to suit up Sunday against the Patriots.
