Walker (quadriceps) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough.

Walker had to leave Sunday's loss to Seattle early after hurting his quad in the first half. He's been deemed limited in each of the Falcons' two walkthroughs this week, so his status is very much up in the air ahead of Thursday's Week 15 matchup versus Tampa Bay. If Walker can't play against the Bucs, Arnold Ebiketie and James Pearce could both be in line for more defensive snaps than usual.

Campbell reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

The Chargers elevated Campbell from the practice squad ahead of Monday night's game against the Eagles, but he ended up being a healthy inactive. He's eligible to be called up from the Chargers' practice squad twice more during the regular season, and that could happen for Week 15 against the Chiefs if Derius Davis (ankle) is unable to play.

Otton (knee) did not participate at the Buccaneers' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

Otton has been considered a non-participant in Tampa Bay's first two team sessions of the week, placing some doubt on his status for Week 15. The tight end will have one more chance to practice Wednesday before the team squares off with the Falcons on Thursday Night Football. If Otton can't play, Payne Durham would stand to operate as the team's top tight end.

Evans (collarbone) was considered a limited participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

Evans has now opened the week with back-to-back limited tags on the team's injury report, giving him a chance to return to the lineup in Week 15. The wide receiver missed the last six contests with a broken collarbone, but the 32-year-old is trending in the right direction. The team's final injury report of the week Wednesday will provide more clarity on his status for Thursday night's matchup with the Falcons.

Godwin (fibula) was a full participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

Godwin opened the week getting listed as limited on the team's initial practice estimate Monday. The wide receiver caught a season-high five passes on eight targets for 55 yards in the team's 24-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday, and he'll look to keep it up during Thursday Night Football against Atlanta.

Mills was waived by the Texans on Tuesday.

Mills will be placed on waivers after registering four total tackles (one solo) over four contests with the Texans this season. If the safety goes unclaimed, there's a good chance that he returns to Houston as a member of the team's practice squad.

Pitts (knee) was a limited participant at Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

Pitts has yet to be listed as a full participant on the Falcons' Week 15 practice reports, but his ability to get in a limited session Tuesday inspires confidence that he'll be able to play Thursday against the Buccaneers. With top wideout Drake London (knee) missing the last three games, Pitts has taken on a more prominent role in the passing attack, producing a 15-197-0 line on 23 targets. London has yet to resume practicing since suffering a PCL injury in Week 11 and is trending toward another absence Thursday, so Pitts once again shapes up as a solid fantasy option at tight end in Week 15.

London (knee) was a non-participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

London has now gone down as a non-participant for the Falcons' first two Week 15 practices. His lack of on-field work since sustaining a PCL sprain in Week 11 makes it likely that he'll miss a fourth straight game Thursday at Tampa Bay.

Jones was claimed off waivers by the Texans on Tuesday.

Jones was let go by the Chargers on Monday, and he has now almost instantly found a new suitor in Houston. The defensive lineman has compiled 10 total tackles (six solo) and a pass defensed over eight contests this season with Los Angeles, and he'll provide the Texans with an additional depth option behind Mario Edwards and Sheldon Rankins moving forward.

Martinez was cut from the 49ers' practice squad Tuesday.

Martinez has been on and off of the 49ers' practice squad this season, even appearing in one game with the team in Week 9 against the Giants. The quarterback will now be subject to waivers, and, if he goes unclaimed, there's a decent chance that he rejoins San Francisco's practice unit down the road this year.
