Antonio Gibson Returns To Practice
Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shin) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday.

T.J. Hockenson Returns To Limited Practice
Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) missed practice for the first time this year on Wednesday, but he returned to a limited practice on Thursday. It's good news for his status in Week 5 against the Minnesota Vikings. However, Hockenson didn't do much on the field, so he might need to show the coaching […]
George Kittle Missing Practice Again Thursday
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (calf) is missing his second straight day of practice on Thursday.

Jimmy Garoppolo Doesn't Practice, Trey Lance In Line To Start?
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday.

Garoppolo initially thought he'd miss at least a few weeks after getting injured […]
Julio Jones Misses Another Practice
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Jones looks to be on the wrong side of questionable for a Week 5 meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars, and it would be his second straight absence if he can't play. The good news is that A.J. Brown returned […]
Joe Mixon Not At Practice Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) was not seen practicing at the portion open to the media on Thursday.

Chris Carson Not Expected To Play Thursday?
The Seattle Seahawks have not ruled running back Chris Carson (neck) out for the Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5, but SI.com's Corbin K.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) and wide receiver Amari Cooper (hamstring) will take part in individual drills at practice on Thursday after they both skipped practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Mike McCarthy.

Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Chauncey Rivers (knee) tore his ACL on the second-to-last play of practice on Wednesday and will miss the rest of the season, according to a source.

Packers Likely To Land Jaylon Smith
The Green Bay Packers are working to finalize a deal with former Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl linebacker Jaylon Smith on Wednesday, according to a source.

Jaire Alexander Likely To Avoid Surgery
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that the team is trying to avoid surgery for cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder) "at all costs," but they will not say how long he'll be out.

Josh Jacobs Continues To Be Limited
Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) put in a limited practice on Wednesday after returning in the Monday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers after missing the previous two games.

Melvin Gordon III Absent On Wednesday
Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (leg) sat out of practice on Wednesday.

Elijah Mitchell Gets In A Limited Practice
San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) was able to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday.

George Kittle Not Practicing Wednesday
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (calf) was held out of practice on Wednesday.

DeVante Parker Limited To Start The Week
Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (shoulder) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday to begin the week.

[…]
Danny Amendola Returns To Practice Wednesday
Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (thigh) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after missing the last two games.

[…]

Russell Gage Misses Practice Wednesday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) didn't practice again on Wednesday. Gage has missed the last two games and isn't off to a good start ahead of Week 5 against the New York Jets.

Chase Claypool, JuJu Smith-Schuster Limited Wednesday
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers Chase Claypool (hamstring) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (ribs) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. This is mostly notable for Claypool, who sat out of the Week 4 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Unless he suffers a setback later in the week, there's a good chance that Claypool can avoid missing […]
