Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle, shoulder) and running back Gus Edwards (hamstring) are not practicing on Thursday.

And […]

DeVante Parker Still Out Thursday

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) was not at practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Parker is week-to-week with a knee sprain that he suffered in the Week 8 win over the New York Jets, so there's a good chance he won't be able to suit up in Week […]

Damien Harris Not On Practice Field Thursday

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (illness) was not spotted on the practice field in the portion open to the media for the second straight day on Thursday. Harris will now need to get back on the practice field on Friday in order to have a shot at playing on Sunday against the Indianapolis […]

Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy anticipates new wide receiver Chase Claypool playing a role in his debut with the team in Week 9 against the Miami Dolphins.

Allen Lazard, Christian Watson Practicing Thursday

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Allen Lazard (shoulder) and Christian Watson (concussion) were both seen practicing in pads on Thursday.

Josh Reynolds Not Seen On Thursday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (back) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. Reynolds was limited on Wednesday, so he either suffered a setback or is being rested on Thursday. The 27-year-old could be questionable for the Week 9 game against the Green Bay Packers. If he's […]

D'Andre Swift, Brock Wright At Practice Thursday

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) and tight end Brock Wright (concussion) were both seen at practice on Thursday, with Wright donning a red no-contact shirt.

Phillip Dorsett, Chris Moore To Have Bigger Roles

With Houston Texans wide receivers Brandin Cooks (personal) and Nico Collins (groin) both out on Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles, receivers Phillip Dorsett, Chris Moore and Tyron Johnson will be the starters in three-wide sets.

Texans Not Expected To Release Brandin Cooks

The Houston Texans are not expected to release disgruntled wide receiver Brandin Cooks right now, according to a source.

The veteran wideout was hoping to be traded to a contender at Tuesday's […]

Jahan Dotson Absent Again Thursday

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is missing another practice on Thursday. Dotson hasn't played since Week 4 and is trending towards missing yet another contest in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Cardinals Hope Robbie Anderson Will Have Bigger Role

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said he hopes wide receiver Robbie Anderson can have a bigger role in Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks and that the coaches will try to "force feed" him the ball.

Tyron Smith Still A Ways From A Possible Return

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said that left tackle Tyron Smith (knee, hamstring) is around three to four weeks away from starting his 21-day window to practice with the team.

Brandin Cooks Won't Play Thursday Night

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks will not play on Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles. Cooks missed practice this week for what the team described as personal reasons.

No Timetable For Panthers To Activate Sam Darnold

Carolina Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks said it's tough to say when the team will activate quarterback Sam Darnold (ankle), whose 21-day window ends next Tuesday.

J.D. McKissic Listed As DNP Wednesday

Washington Commanders running back J.D. McKissic (neck) was unable to practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for McKissic, and right now he should be considered questionable to play in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings. He's been involved in a three-man committee backfield in Washington alongside rookie Brian Robinson and Antonio Gibson, making him […]

Josh Reynolds Puts In A Limited Practice

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (back) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Reynolds' back injury is new, as he was previously dealing with ankle and knee ailments this year. It's something to watch heading into Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers. With T.J. Hockenson now in Minnesota, there will be […]

Julio Jones, Russell Gage Miss Wednesday's Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Julio Jones (knee) and Russell Gage (hamstring) were both non-participants in Wednesday's practice.

Damien Harris, DeVante Parker Miss Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (illness) and wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) both missed practice on Wednesday. Harris has taken a back seat to Rhamondre Stevenson in recent weeks, although he did have 11 carries for only 37 yards in last week's loss to the New York Jets. And now he could be […]

James Conner, Matt Prater Limited Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) and kicker Matt Prater (hip) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Conner hasn't played since Week 5, and it remains to be seen if he'll play this weekend against the Seattle Seahawks. He'll likely have to practice in full later this week. Darrel Williams (hip) was placed […]

Jaylen Waddle Puts In A Full Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Waddle has been limited in practice to begin the week recently, so he appears to be getting close to full health heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Chicago Bears on the road. The 23-year-old second-year wideout has topped […]

Keenan Allen Won't Return Until He's 100 Percent

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) said his hamstring injury got worse during last week's bye while training.
