Newsome (concussion) wasn't listed on the Giants' injury report Wednesday.

Newsome is healthy again after having missed the Week 7 win over the Texans due to a concussion. The 26-year-old signed a three-year extension with the team Tuesday and will resume his role as one of its starting cornerbacks during Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.

Abdullah (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

The Falcons designated Abdullah for return to practice from their injured reserve list Tuesday, and he was able to actually get back on the practice field Wednesday, albeit in a limited capacity. He's eligible to be activated ahead of Sunday's game versus the Bengals, but he'll likely need to manage a full practice Thursday or Friday to have a realistic chance to suit up in Week 9.

Elliott (ankle) was a limited participant at the Eagles' practice Wednesday.

Elliott opened the week with a limited session as a result of an apparent ankle issue. The kicker went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made his only PAT during the team's 27-10 loss to Washington in Week 8, and he may have picked up the ankle injury during the contest. Elliott will have two more chances to log a full practice before Sunday's matchup with the Giants.

Reid (concussion) was a full participant in New Orleans' practice Wednesday.

Reid is closer to making his return after sustaining a concussion during the Week 7 loss to the Steelers. The 2018 third-round pick will still have to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to be eligible to play in Sunday's matchup versus the Browns. If he ends up being unable to play, Lorenzo Styles will likely start at safety in his place.

Shaheed (knee) did not practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Shaheed missed Monday night's loss to the Bears, which allowed Tory Horton to log a season-high 43 offensive snaps, which he turned into a 3-26-0 receiving line on six targets. Horton would again be in line for WR3 duties if Shaheed needs to sit Sunday against Arizona.

Knight (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Knight is in concussion protocol after playing just 18 offensive snaps in last Sunday's overtime win over the Cowboys. With Jeremiyah Love (ankle) headed to injured reserve and out for at least the next four weeks, Knight figures to have a key backfield role alongside Tyler Allgeier, but it might be a challenge for Knight to gain clearance for Sunday's game against Seattle.

Nixon (groin) was a limited participant at the Packers' practice Wednesday.

Nixon was able to play through a shoulder injury in the team's Week 8 win over the Panthers on Thursday Night Football, but he may have tweaked the groin injury that bothered him leading up to Week 7. The cornerback's ability to practice in any capacity is a positive sign, and he'll have two more chances to practice in full before Sunday's matchup with New England.

The Chiefs signed De Jesus to their practice squad Wednesday.

De Jesus joined the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent in May and was subsequently waived in August, but he is now set to rejoin the team's practice squad. The 24-year-old will now look to be elevated and make his regular-season debut.

Brooks (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve by the Packers on Wednesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Brooks was a limited participant at the team's first practice of the week as Green Bay opened his 21-day practice window Wednesday. The running back has been on IR since suffering an ankle injury in Week 4 against the Buccaneers, but he could be nearing a return to action.

The Cowboys signed Corbin to their practice squad Wednesday, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Corbin was released from Dallas' active roster on Tuesday but is now set to join the team's practice squad. The 26-year-old didn't see any action across the first seven weeks of the campaign and hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since 2023 with the Giants.
