  • Hunter Long TE | JAC

    Jaguars' Hunter Long: Missing another practice

    Long (hip/knee) is not participating in practice Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Long is missing a second consecutive practice, making his status for Week 10 cloudy. With Brenton Strange (quadriceps) still on IR, Johnny Mundt and Quintin Morris will operate as Jacksonville's top tight ends versus Houston on Sunday if Long is unavailable. Jordan Akins and Patrick Herbert would also be candidates to be elevated from the practice squad.

  • Packers' MarShawn Lloyd: Improving, but return date TBD

    Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Lloyd (hamstring) recently headed to the West Coast to continue his rehab program, but the running back is without a clear timeline to return from injured reserve, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    LaFleur noted that Lloyd headed out West to "get his body right" and added that the "results were promising," but he didn't expand much further on the second-year running back's outlook. At this stage, Lloyd doesn't look to be especially close to practicing, making it likely that his absence extends into late November, if not December. A third-round draft pick in 2024, Lloyd has appeared in just one game thus far during his time with the Packers, as he missed the majority of his rookie season while recovering from hamstring and ankle injuries as well as an emergency appendectomy.

  • Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Set for limited practice

    Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Wicks (calf) will be a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    After tweaking his calf in the Packers' Week 7 win over the Cardinals, Wicks sat out both of Green Bay's subsequent two games while not practicing in any fashion ahead of either contest. The third-year wideout's ability to take the field in a limited capacity as the Packers begin Week 10 prep thus amounts to progress, though Wicks may still need to upgrade to full participation by Saturday in order to gain clearance for Monday's game against the Eagles. Wicks could find himself a spot lower in the pecking order at receiver once he returns, as the Packers have since welcomed Christian Watson back from the PUP list while Wicks has been on the mend.

  • Browns' Rayshawn Jenkins: Emerges from bye at full health

    Jenkins (groin) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Jenkins was forced out of Cleveland's loss to the Patriots in Week 8 early due to a groin issue, but he returned to full health during the team's bye. He'll be available to handle reserve defensive reps and contribute on special teams during Sunday's road game against the Jets.

  • Browns' Adin Huntington: Not on injury report

    Huntington (concussion) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Huntington has emerged from Cleveland's bye fully healthy. He had missed Week 8 while still working through the concussion protocol. He's on track to handle his usual depth role at defensive end Sunday on the road versus the Jets.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Remaining sidelined at practice

    Godwin (fibula) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Godwin has yet to resume on-field work following the Buccaneers' Week 9 bye and appears to be on track to miss his fourth consecutive game this Sunday against the Patriots. Unless Godwin is able to reverse the trend and practice in some fashion Friday, expect the Buccaneers to officially rule him out for Sunday's game on their final Week 10 injury report.

  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Missing another practice

    Irving (foot/shoulder) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Despite the benefit of a Week 9 bye, Irving has yet to show any tangible sign of progress as he rebounds from a shoulder subluxation and a left foot sprain. He's now sat out both of the Buccaneers' first two practices of the week and appears to be trending toward a fifth consecutive missed game Sunday versus the Patriots. Irving's expected absence will continue to pave the way for Rachaad White to lead the Tampa Bay backfield, with Sean Tucker handling a secondary role.

  • Sauce Gardner CB | IND

    Colts' Sauce Gardner: Clears concussion protocol

    The Colts announced Thursday that Gardner has cleared the concussion protocol, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Gardner appears all set to make his team debut Sunday versus Atlanta, though it remains to be seen how much of a role he'll have while still in the process of picking up a new defensive scheme. The Colts acquired Gardner in a trade with the Jets on Tuesday, in exchange for a pair of future first-round draft picks and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell.

  • Will Dissly TE | LAC

    Chargers' Will Dissly: Avoids injury report

    Dissly (illness) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

    Dissly was a healthy scratch for Week 8 and then sat out Week 9 due to an illness, but he's now fully recovered. There's no guarantee that Dissly will be active for Sunday's game against the Steelers, however, even at full health. Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin have operated as Los Angeles' top reserve tight ends following the emergence of Oronde Gadsden.

  • Woody Marks RB | HOU

    Texans' Woody Marks: Could see increased workload

    Marks could be in position for more touches Week 10 pending the status of Nick Chubb (foot), who did not practice Wednesday.

    Chubb's status is something to monitor in the days leading up to Sunday's contest against the Jaguars. With starting quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) ruled out, the Texans are expected to lean on their ground game Week 10, which means Marks could see an increased workload should Chubb join Stroud on the inactive list. It's unclear when Chubb sustained the injury; he played well into the fourth quarter last week before Marks handled the team's final possession in a loss to Denver. Marks has been allotted double-digit touches in four of the last five games and has been dual threat (21 targets, 13 catches) out of the backfield during his rookie season.
