T.Y. Hilton Contemplated Retirement

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (neck), who remains on Injured Reserve with a neck injury, said he contemplated retirement over the last few months.

Damien Harris Back At Practice

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ribs) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. The Patriots announced that Harris' injury wasn't serious on Monday, so it's not a huge surprise that he's on track to play in Week 6 against the Dallas Cowboys. But even if the 24-year-old plays this […]

Allen Robinson II Absent Again Thursday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (ankle) is missing his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Robinson is questionable to play this weekend against the division-rival Green Bay Packers, but a limited practice on Friday would put him on the right side of questionable. The 28-year-old has pretty much been an afterthought in […]

Mike Williams Not Practicing Again Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) is missing his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Williams is now looking very questionable for the Week 6 showdown against the Baltimore Ravens. The No. 1 fantasy wideout through five weeks will need at least a limited practice on Friday to ease everyone's concerns about […]

Dalvin Cook, Alexander Mattison Both Upgraded Thursday

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (ankle) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday.

Jamaal Williams Downgraded Thursday

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams (hip, illness) missed practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday.

A.J. Brown, Julio Jones Practicing In Full

Tennessee Titans wide receivers A.J. Brown (hamstring) and Julio Jones (hamstring) were both full participants in practice on Thursday. It's more notable for Jones, who has missed the last two games.

DeAndre Hopkins Out Again With Illness

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (illness) remained out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday with a non-COVID-19-related illness. It's concerning that Hopkins has missed two straight practices this week, but as long as he can return to practice Friday, he'll still have a good shot at playing in Week 6 against […]

Adam Thielen Gets In Some Work Thursday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (foot) ran some routes at the start of practice on Thursday before walking off for injury rehab. It doesn't sound like Thielen did much, but at least he was on the practice field for a little bit. Justin Jefferson (ankle) was limited and said he expects to play in […]

Khalil Herbert Could Have A Huge Role In Week 6

Chicago Bears rookie running back Khalil Herbert could be in line for heavy usage in the Week 6 game against the Green Bay Packers after the Bears put Damien Williams on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. David Montgomery (knee) remains on Injured Reserve. Herbert, who had 18 carries for 75 yards in the Week 5 […]

Bears Place Damien Williams On COVID-19 List

The Chicago Bears placed running back Damien Williams on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday.

It's unclear if Williams tested positive for […]

Washington Football Team offensive coordinator Scott Turner said running back Antonio Gibson (shin) has not been limited by a hairline fracture in his shin. "No. He's good. He's not limited.

Lamar Jackson Not Spotted At Practice Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was not spotted at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday.

The 24-year-old superstar put on […]

Christian McCaffrey Not At Practice Thursday

There was no sign of Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday.

Justin Jefferson Expects To Play Sunday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle), who missed practice on Wednesday, said he will be limited on Thursday and expects to play in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers.

T.J. Hockenson Practicing On Thursday

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Hockenson has been bothered by a knee injury in recent weeks. While he has played through the injury, the 24-year-old hasn't found the end zone since Week 2 and has only eight receptions on 13 targets for 74 yards […]

DeVante Parker Trending In The Wrong Direction

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring, shoulder) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Parker was unable to play in the Week 5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and looks headed for another absence this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. He'll need to at least practice on a limited […]

Tyreek Hill Misses Another Practice

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) will miss his second straight day of practice on Thursday.

The 27-year-old speedster […]

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) remained out of practice on Thursday during the media-viewing portion.

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shin) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday.

Daniel Jones Returns To Limited Practice Thursday

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (concussion) was the first QB in every drill on Thursday and will be listed as limited on the final practice report.

Trevon Diggs' Injury Isn't Serious

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (ankle) will be limited in practice on Thursday, but head coach Mike McCarthy said the situation is "not of high concern."

Rashod Bateman Has A Chance To Play Sunday

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that there's a "chance" that rookie wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) comes off the Injured Reserve and plays in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Chargers. "He's looking good. … I don't think we're going to throw him into the fire every play. I think we're going to […]

Germain Ifedi Goes On Injured Reserve

The Chicago Bears placed right tackle Germain Ifedi (knee) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, but head coach Matt Nagy said that he will be back this season.
