Cashman (elbow) was limited in Thursday's practice session.

Cashman has begun the week with consecutive limited practices after apparently hurting his elbow during this past Sunday's win over Tampa Bay. The veteran defender has gotten off to a superb start to the campaign, recording 2.5 sacks among 25 total tackles through three games. Cashman may need to practice in full Friday to avoid getting an injury designation heading into the weekend.

Revel (knee/ankle) did not practice Thursday, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Revel was injured in the Week 3 loss to the Ravens. While he avoided a major injury, his availability for Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Texans is in jeopardy. With Cobie Durant (hamstring) also in danger of missing Sunday's contest, Joey Porter (back), who has a chance to make his debut for the Cowboys in Week 4 after being traded by the Steelers, might be busier than originally anticipated, assuming he's available.

Van Ness (shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday.

Van Ness is dealing with a shoulder injury that he suffered during last Thursday's loss to the Falcons. He's been been a limited practice participant on consecutive days to begin Week 4 prep, so he has a chance to suit up Sunday against the Buccaneers. However, if he ends up being unable to suit up, Brenton Cox could get more defensive snaps.

Blackmon (calf) was a limited participant at the Saints' practice Thursday.

Blackmon is dealing with a calf injury to open the week, forcing him to be limited at Thursday's session. The safety will have two more opportunities to log a full practice prior to Monday night's matchup with Atlanta.

Werner (neck) did not participate at the Saints' practice Thursday.

Werner sustained a neck injury in the first half of the team's Week 3 loss to Las Vegas, and he was unable to return to the contest. The linebacker will have two more chances to practice before Monday night's matchup with the Falcons.

Elliss (calf) did not participate at the Saints' practice Thursday.

Elliss is dealing with an apparent calf injury as the team gets ready to face Atlanta on Monday night. The linebacker will have two more chances to log a practice before the team's Week 4 contest.

Cooper (concussion/shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

Cooper suffered a concussion in last Thursday's game against Atlanta and is also dealing with a shoulder issue. Even if the latter injury is minor, he'll have to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in order to be able to suit up Sunday versus Tampa Bay. If Cooper is unable to play in Week 4, Isaiah McDuffie could be asked to start at linebacker.

Banks (calf) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Banks has missed each of New York's past two games due to a calf injury. He was a limited practice participant all of last week and has begun Week 4 with consecutive limited sessions as well. If Banks is unable to return to action this Sunday against Arizona, Colton Hood will likely get another start at cornerback.

Stukes logged a second straight full practice Thursday.

Stukes appears to be on track to return to action Sunday versus the Chiefs after head coach Klint Kubiak confirmed that 25-year-old cleared concussion protocol, per Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site. Stukes has compiled 10 total tackles (six solo) and an interception over two contests this year, and he'll likely return to his starting role at free safety in Week 4.

Raridon (thigh) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Raridon was limited again Thursday. If the thigh injury keeps the rookie off the field in the Week 4 meeting with the Bills, Tanner Arkin could see more snaps behind Hunter Henry and Cameron Latu.
