Bridgewater (left shoulder) was a full participant in Friday's practice and is listed as probable against Green Bay.

Bridgewater was able to fully practice all week, so this injury looks minor and likely won't be a factor Sunday.

Rodgers (shoulder) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Rodgers was limited at Wednesday's practice but then logged full sessions Thursday and Friday. His shoulder appears to be a non-issue, but the same can't be said of Green Bay's recent offensive performance. The matchup is also difficult, with the Vikings sporting a strong pass rush and allowing just 6.9 yards per pass attempt. Of course, this is still Aaron Rodgers we're dealing with, so a big game wouldn't surprise anyone.

Following Friday's practice, coach Bill O'Brien ruled Hoyer (concussion) out for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Though Hoyer didn't practice this week, O'Brien did note Friday that he's optimistic the QB will return to practice and be able to play next week against the Saints. Starting in Hoyer's place this Sunday will be T.J. Yates, who is set to make his first NFL regular season start since Week 17 of the 2011 campaign.

Bradford (concussion, left shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs.

As a result, Mark Sanchez will start at QB for the Eagles on Sunday, while Bradford's Week 12 status remains cloudy as well, with the team on a quick turnaround and set to play the Lions on Thanksgiving Day.

Rodgers (shoulder) was a full practice participant Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

In the portion of practice open to the media, Rodgers made fewer throws than normal, but the ones he did take included their usual zip. He was also able to make throws moving at full speed, indicating that his right shoulder injury shouldn't be a concern Sunday at Minnesota. Backing up those sentiments was his "no worries" comment Wednesday, which was followed by head coach Mike McCarthy noting "no concern" about Rodgers' ability to suit up in Week 11, according to Vic Ketchman of the Packers' official site.

Hoyer (concussion) is not expected to play Sunday against the Jets, ESPN.com reports.

That said, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle relays that as of Thursday, coach Bill O'Brien hasn't ruled out Hoyer officially, calling the QB day-to-day. If Hoyer is sidelined this weekend, as expected, however, T.J. Yates would draw the start at QB for the Texans in Week 11.

Bradford has yet to pass the NFL's concussion protocol, so he won't practice Thursday.

With Bradford also dealing with left shoulder issue in addition to his concussion, he continues to look pretty iffy for Sunday's game against the Bucs. In the event that he is ruled out for the contest -- and such an outcome could arrive Friday upon the release of the Eagles' final Week 11 injury report -- Mark Sanchez would be in line to start at QB in his place this weekend.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport relays that he has been told that Hoyer (concussion) is likely out for Sunday's game against the Jets.

In such a scenario -- which the Texans have yet to confirm either way -- T.J. Yates would presumably draw the start at QB for the Texans on Sunday, with newcomer Brandon Weeden available to serve in a backup capacity

Rodgers was limited in practice Wednesday due to a right shoulder injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Rodgers has admitted that he's banged-up at the moment, which is likely due to the three sacks and seven quarterback hits that he sustained during Sunday's loss to the Lions, but firing a ridiculous 109 passes the last two games likely hasn't helped matters. While limited practice appearances may be replicated Thursday and Friday, the two-time MVP has "no worries" about suiting up Sunday at Minnesota.

Hoyer (concussion) did not practice Wednesday.

When asked about Hoyer's status for Sunday's game against the Jets, coach Bill O'Brien acknowledged Wednesday that "it's in the questionable category," while adding that the QB -- who remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, -- "would have to practice to play." In the event that Hoyer is not cleared to play in Sunday's contest, T.J. Yates would draw the start in his place, while Zac Dysert (currently on the team's practice squad) would be in line to serve as the Texans' No. 2 QB in such a scenario.
