Titans WR Julio Jones (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. So he evidently has a shot to play vs. the Chiefs this weekend, despite aggravating his hamstring injury on Monday night. We'll get another update on Julio tomorrow.
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce (neck) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We've heard nothing to suggest that he's in danger of missing this weekend's game vs. Tennessee, but check back tomorrow to see how he's listed on the final injury report.
Dolphins WRs DeVante Parker (hamstring, shoulder) and Preston Williams (groin) remained limited on Thursday. Both guys seemingly have a chance to return for this weekend's game vs. the Falcons, but we'll get another update tomorrow.
Browns DE Jadeveon Clowney is active for tonight's game against the Broncos. He entered questionable with multiple injuries but should be good to go or an upside sack matchup.
Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reports that Browns QB Baker Mayfield has a fractured humerus bone in his left shoulder, in addition to the torn labrum. He needs that fracture to heal before he'll be cleared to play. Mayfield told Glazer that he's "hoping" to return next week, but that feels unlikely. We'll keep you updated on the situation.
So much for Seahawks RB Alex Collins practicing on Thursday, as HC Pete Carroll said. Collins did not practice, according to the team's official injury report. He's listed with a groin, rather than the previously reported hip and glute injuries. Collins' availability for Monday night's game vs. the Saints is uncertain. We're still waiting to see if RB Rashaad Penny (calf) will be activated for that one.
The Broncos expect to get WR Jerry Jeudy (ankle) back for Week 8, according to NFL Network's James Palmer. Jeudy has been sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the season opener. He was designated to return last Saturday, so he'll have had 2 weeks to ramp up before next Sunday's game vs. Washington. Jeudy should be rostered in all fantasy leagues at this point.
The forecast for tonight's Broncos-Browns game calls for sustained winds up to 20 mph and gusts around 30 mph. That's enough to impact some longer throws and kicks -- and another reason to expect this to be a low-scoring game.
Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Broncos. It’s unclear how big a role he'll play in his 1st action since Week 2. And he’ll be catching passes from backup QB Case Keenum.
Browns WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) is active for tonight's game against the Broncos. It's a surprise after reports over the past 24 hours that Beckham has a Grade 3 AC joint injury and was facing an "uphill battle" to play tonight. He might be limited and is at risk of re-injuring that shoulder.
Broncos QB Teddy Bridgewater (foot, quad) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Browns. He was limited in practice this week and listed as questionable. Bridgewater will be playing at less than 100% on the short week.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Bears RB Damien Williams can't be cleared from the COVID list until Saturday at the earliest because he's unvaccinated. That puts his Week 7 status in doubt. Even if Williams is activated on Saturday, it's unclear if and how much he'd play vs. the Bucs after being sidelined for 10 days. RB Khalil Herbert is the superior fantasy play even if Williams ends up active on Sunday.
Washington WR Terry McLaurin (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He seemingly made it out of last week's loss to the Chiefs without a setback and should be ready for Sunday's game vs. the Packers.
Washington RB Antonio Gibson (shin) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. It looks like he's going to try to again play through that stress fracture in his shin on Sunday vs. the Packers. Gibson is a high-risk fantasy play after lasting just 23 snaps last week.
Seahawks HC Pete Carroll said RB Alex Collins (hip, glute) will practice on Thursday. That presumably puts him on track to play vs. the Saints on Monday night, but we'll keep an eye on him over the next few days. Collins has handled 35 carries and 4 targets over the last 2 weeks but might need to contend with the return of RB Rashaad Penny on Monday
Giants TE Evan Engram did not practice on Thursday due to a calf injury. He missed the first 2 games of the season with a calf, although it's not confirmed that this is related. Regardless, he now looks iffy for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers. Check back tomorrow for another update.
Giants WR Sterling Shepard was added to Thursday's injury report as limited with a hamstring. We don't have any details right now, but mid-week downgrades are never good. WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) remained limited on Thursday, while WR John Ross (hamstring) returned to a limited practice after sitting out Wednesday. We'll update the Giants' banged-up WR corps again tomorrow.
Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (quad) remained sidelined on Thursday. He, of course, only got in a limited practice on Friday last week before posting a 9-76-1 line vs. Washington. Hill is fully expected to play vs. the Titans this Sunday.
Colts WR T.Y. Hilton (quad) missed practice again on Thursday. He told reporters afterward that he's "50/50" to play vs. the 49ers on Sunday night, but we're not expecting to see him out there. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.
Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) has been activated from IR, making him eligible to play vs. the Broncos tonight. It'll be his first action since Week 2. There's a chance that Landry steps into the lead WR role with Odell Beckham likely out. But there's also a chance he's limited in his first game back. Backup QB Case Keenum also adds risk to Landry's Week 7 fantasy profile.
