Justice Hill Misses Practice Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) was not at practice on Wednesday after he was inactive in the Week 5 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night. Hill still has two days to return to practice, but he's not on the right track to return in Week 6 against the New York Giants. […]

Geno Smith Playing Well Heading Into Week 6

Heading into Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is playing like one of the best QBs in football and has already won NFC Offensive Player of the Week. Smith is currently fourth in EPA per dropback (0.19), sixth in touchdown percentage (8.48) and leads the NFL in completion percentage (75.2 […]

Cameron Brate Returns To Full Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate (concussion) returned to the practice field on Wednesday and put in a full session. It appears he has passed through the league's concussion protocol after being inactive in the Week 5 win over the Atlanta Falcons. We'll know more later in the week, but Brate appears to have […]

Jonnu Smith Puts In Limited Practice

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Smith appears to be on the right track to return in a Week 6 contest against the Cleveland Browns after he was inactive in last Sunday's shutout win over the Detroit Lions. He's taken a clear back seat […]

Jakobi Meyers, Nelson Agholor Limited Wednesday

New England Patriots wide receivers Jakobi Meyers (knee) and Nelson Agholor (hamstring) were both limited in Wednesday's practice. Meyers missed Weeks 3 and 4 before returning in the Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions to post a strong seven receptions for 111 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Unless he suffers a setback […]

Dak Prescott Feels "Great" After Throwing Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) said he felt "great" after his first throwing session on Wednesday since having right thumb surgery. Prescott plans to throw more on Thursday. "Solid. Ask the receivers," Prescott said. "I always got some pop on my (passes)." The 29-year-old is making progress, but he won't make the start in […]

No Structural Damage For Ronald Acuna Jr.

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (elbow) doesn't have any structural damage to his right elbow after he was hit by a pitch in the Game 2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League Division Series on Wednesday. Acuna was in some pain but managed to stay in the game and went 1-for-3 […]

Robert Hassell III Suffers Broken Hamate Bone

Washington Nationals outfield prospect Robert Hassell III (hand) will miss the rest of the Arizona Fall League after suffering a broken hamate bone in his right hand. Hassell is the team's top-ranked prospect and was acquired as part of the package that sent superstar outfielder Juan Soto and first baseman Josh Bell to the San […]

Matt Prater Starts Off The Week With A DNP

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. Prater was inactive in the Week 5 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and is considered week-to-week, so it doesn't appear that he's on the right track to return to kicking duties in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks. The Cardinals […]

James Conner Unable To Practice Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice. Conner left the Week 5 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and is considered day-to-day, but a DNP to start the week isn't a great sign for his availability in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks. Darrel Williams (knee) has already […]

Keenan Allen Does Individual Drills Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) took part in individual drills in practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Brandon Staley. It's nice to see Allen putting in some work, but he remains day-to-day and questionable for the Monday night game against the Denver Broncos in Week 6 after not playing since tweaking […]

Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle Practice In Full Wednesday

Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (foot) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) were both full participants in practice on Wednesday. Hill was seen in a walking boot on his injured foot after the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, but the injury wasn't deemed serious and he appears to be on track to suit […]

Teddy Bridgewater Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) wasn't able to take part in practice on Wednesday. Bridgewater remains in the league's concussion protocol, and if he gets cleared before Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, he will serve as the backup to rookie Skylar Thompson in his first career start. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to […]

Raheem Mostert Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) missed Wednesday's practice with a knee injury. Tight end Durham Smythe (hamstring) was also sidelined. Mostert played 69 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, handling a season-high 18 carries for 113 yards and a touchdown while adding one reception […]

Luke Jackson Resumes Throwing

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Luke Jackson (elbow) wrote in his personal Twitter account that he threw for the first time in six months on Wednesday since having Tommy John surgery on his right elbow on April 13. Jackson is slowly working his way back from elbow reconstruction and is likely to be limited when spring […]

Chris Taylor Remains Out Of The Lineup

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor (neck) remains out of the starting lineup for Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday against the San Diego Padres. Taylor has been dealing with a sore neck and hasn't played in a game since Sept. 30. He was not used off the bench in the […]

Josh Bell Starting On The Bench Again In Game 2

San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Josh Bell is on the bench again for Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and left-handed starter Clayton Kershaw. The left-handed-hitting Bell will likely start on the bench again in this series once left-hander Tyler Anderson makes his start […]

George Kirby To Start Game 3 Of ALDS

Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais confirmed that rookie right-hander George Kirby will start Game 3 of the American League Division Series on Saturday against the Houston Astros. It means that left-hander Robbie Ray, who gave up the game-winning, walk-off home run to Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez in Game 1 on Tuesday, will not make a […]

Ha-Seong Kim Batting Leadoff For Friars Wednesday

San Diego Padres shortstop Ha-Seong Kim is starting at shortstop and is batting leadoff in Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and left-hander Clayton Kershaw. Jurickson Profar, who has hit leadoff in every postseason game for the Padres to this point, has been dropped to […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Will Be Limited Wednesday

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) will be limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. Robinson hasn't played since the season opener due to a lingering knee injury, but it looks like he's on the right track to make his return in Week 6 against the Baltimore Ravens. And with both Kadarius […]

Dawson Knox Limited In Wednesday's Practice

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hamstring, foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice. It's a good start to the week after Knox missed the team's Week 5 blowout win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. If he's able to return for a Week 6 matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs, Knox would be on the TE2 streaming […]

Mac Jones Listed As Limited Wednesday

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday with his ankle injury. Jones suffered a severe high-ankle sprain in Week 3 and has missed the last two games. The second-year signal-caller is making progress, but he should still be considered very questionable to play in Week 6 […]

Baker Mayfield Misses Practice Wednesday

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. This shouldn't come as a surprise at all after he suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Mayfield will avoid surgery on his ankle and isn't being ruled out for Week 6 against […]

Isaiah McKenzie Good To Go After Clearing Concussion Protocol

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is good to go for Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing the Week 5 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Receiver Jake Kumerow (ankle) and running back Taiwan Jones (knee) will not practice Wednesday. McKenzie will return to his […]

Pat Freiermuth Listed As Non-Participant

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (concussion) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. In addition to Freiermuth, Zach Gentry (knee) also missed practice, so the Steelers are hurting at the position heading into Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If both Freiermuth and Gentry are unable to play this weekend, Connor […]

Diontae Johnson Injures Hip Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hip) didn't finish practice on Wednesday with a hip injury, but he said he's fine and just took a knee to his hip. There are no long-term concerns and he should be available to play in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett's first […]

James Conner Considered Day-To-Day

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) is considered day-to-day by head coach Kliff Kingsbury. Conner has a chance to play in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks with minimal practice this week. Backup Darrel Williams (knee) has already been ruled out, while Jonathan Ward (hamstring) was placed on Injured Reserve. So even if Conner […]

Michael Thomas Not At Practice Wednesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (foot) was not seen at practice on Wednesday in the period open to the media. Thomas has missed the team's last two games, and this isn't a good start to the week for him. In addition to Thomas, Jarvis Landry (ankle) wasn't seen at practice after he sat […]

Jameis Winston Back At Practice Wednesday

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston (ankle, back) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the last two games. Winston has been battling through four small fractures in his back in addition to an ankle injury, but the fact that he's back at practice to begin the week is a good sign that he could […]
