Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said Friday that Murray (foot) is "doing well" but remains uncertain to play Sunday against the Packers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Murray has been a limited practice participant since last Friday and appears headed for a questionable designation for the second straight week. He might even come down to a game-day decision this time, after reports last Saturday all but ruled him out for Sunday's eventual loss at Indianapolis. WRs Marvin Harrison (concussion) and Zay Jones (knee) also are uncertain for Week 7.

Rodgers completed 23 of 34 passes for 249 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions and rushed once for six yards in the Steelers' 33-31 loss to the Bengals on Thursday night.

Rodgers was outshined by fellow veteran signal-caller Joe Flacco, but the former still tied a season high in touchdown passes. Rodgers connected with Pat Freiermuth for half his scoring tosses -- from 19 and 68 yards out -- and his other two TD strikes went to Freiermuth's position mates Jonnu Smith (10 yards) and Darnell Washington (two yards). Rodgers made several impressive throws throughout the night, including the second touchdown to Freiermuth and his game-ending Hail Mary attempt, corroborating he still has plenty of arm strength and continues to demonstrate his mostly difficult 2024 season with the Jets may have just been a hiccup. Rodgers and his teammates will next turn their attention to a Week 8 home showdown against the Packers on Sunday night, Oct. 26.

Flacco completed 31 of 47 passes for 342 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions while rushing five times for three yards in the Bengals' 33-31 win over the Steelers on Thursday night.

Flacco had an abbreviated practice schedule for the second time in as many weeks since joining the Bengals, but the truncated preparation time clearly didn't affect the veteran signal-caller. As his final line implies, Flacco was crisp throughout the night and displayed elite chemistry with Ja'Marr Chase, who he smartly trained the bulk of his attention on. The duo combined for 16 completions, 161 yards and a touchdown, and Flacco also connected with Tee Higgins (29 yards) and Noah Fant (five yards) for his other pair of scores. Flacco now has a 5:0 TD:INT through his first pair of games in a Cincinnati uniform, and he'll finally have some extra time to settle in with the playbook ahead of a Week 8 home clash against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 26.

Jones (knee/oblique) practiced in full Thursday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Jones followed up Wednesday's limited showing due to lingering knee and oblique injuries with all on-field work one day later. The same can't be said for No. 1 QB Brock Purdy, who remained limited due to his nagging turf toe issue. Purdy has missed four of the past five games as a result of the health concern, but his ability to handle some practice reps on back-to-back days implies that he's inching toward a return to action. Coach Kyle Shanahan may settle who will be the 49ers' starting quarterback for Week 7 when he speaks to the media Friday.

Purdy (toe) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Purdy has missed four of the last five games as he battles a turf toe injury, but his ability to handle some practice reps on back-to-back days for the first time since Week 4 prep generally is a good sign that he's fighting to return to action. Fill-in quarterback Mac Jones (knee/oblique) upgraded from limited Wednesday to full one day later, though, indicating that he's a better bet than Purdy to be available Sunday against the Falcons. Coach Kyle Shanahan has typically been announcing the 49ers' starting QB ahead of game days, so his media session Friday should be enlightening on that front.

McCarthy (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.

McCarthy continues to operate with a cap on his practice reps after getting back onto the field for the first time since sustaining a high right-ankle sprain Week 2 versus the Falcons. Coach Kevin O'Connell previously said McCarthy would need to put together a week of full sessions in order to start, but he also relayed to Alec Lewis of The Athletic on Wednesday that he wasn't ready to name a starter between McCarthy and Carson Wentz (shoulder), the latter of whom has been a full practice participant this week. There's a decent chance O'Connell will make an announcement Friday ahead of Sunday's contest against the Eagles, but McCarthy at least is back in the conversation to lead the Vikings offense on game days.

Murray (foot) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

After being limited at Wednesday's closed walkthrough, Murray was seen throwing passes to reserve wide receivers Thursday, while Jacoby Brissett worked with the Cardinals' first-team offense, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. It was a similar breakdown of reps to last Friday before Murray was inactive this past Sunday at Indianapolis due to a mid-foot sprain and yielded the start to Brissett. Nevertheless, Murray has one more chance to prove his health before the Cardinals likely tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers.

Fields is looking to be more aggressive moving forward but will likely be without top target Garrett Wilson (knee) for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Fields has yet to throw an interception this season, but his cautious approach hasn't led to any success, as the Jets are the last remaining winless team in the NFL. After mustering only 45 passing yards in the team's Week 6 loss to the Broncos, Fields is looking to take more chances moving forward, which may be required to prevent getting benched in favor of Tyrod Taylor. Bouncing back as a passer won't be easy for Fields on Sunday against the Panthers without Wilson, who has the league's second-highest target share this season.

Wentz (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday.

Wentz emerged from the Vikings' last game Week 5 against the Browns in London with an injury to his left, non-throwing shoulder. Coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that Wentz handled every throw at Monday's unofficial session, and the veteran signal-caller seemingly maintained that activity level two days later. Per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, O'Connell also wouldn't name a starter for Week 7 between Wentz and second-year pro J.J. McCarthy, who was limited Wednesday in his first practice since he suffered a high right-ankle sprain Week 2. How McCarthy fares as the week continues likely will determine who is under center for Minnesota on Sunday versus the Eagles.

McCarthy (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

McCarthy thus has logged an official practice for the first time since suffering a high right-ankle sprain Week 2 against the Falcons. Coach Kevin O'Connell told Alec Lewis of The Athletic earlier Wednesday that both McCarthy and Carson Wentz (shoulder) were slated to take part in drills coming out of the Vikings' Week 6 bye, but he also wasn't ready to name a starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Wentz himself was a full participant Wednesday, so he appears to be a step ahead of McCarthy on that front, though the latter added that his ankle is "getting there. I wouldn't say it's 100 percent," per Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune.
