Rodgers (thumb) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Detroit, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

He'll continue playing through the same injury that's limited his practice participation for a few weeks now. The bigger question for Rodgers is whether wide receivers Allen Lazard (shoulder) and Christian Watson (concussion) will play, as both are listed as questionable, and the Packers don't exactly have talent to spare at the position. Rodgers does get an A+ matchup, at least, playing in a dome against a Lions defense ranked dead last in both points and yards allowed.

Tannehill (ankle) was limited at practice Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Per Turron Davenport of ESPN.com, Tannehill's status for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs has yet to be determined. However, it's possible that added context with regard to the QB's chances of suiting up will arrive Saturday prior to the Titans traveling to Kansas City, according to Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com. If Tannehill -- who is officially listed as questionable -- isn't available to play this weekend, the Titans once again would be in line to turn to rookie Malik Willis, who helmed the offense in the team's 17-10 win over the Texans in Week 8.

Mills completed 13 of 22 passes for 154 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions in the Texans' 29-17 loss to the Eagles on Thursday night. He also rushed three times for 18 yards.

In fairness to the second-year quarterback, he was not only facing an unenviable matchup, but doing so while operating without the starting wideout duo of Brandin Cooks (wrist/personal) and Nico Collins (groin). Mills still found a way to keep the Texans competitive most of the game with some significant help from rookie running back Dameon Pierce (139 rushing yards), tossing two- and 13-yard touchdown passes to Teagan Quitoriano and Chris Moore, respectively, in the first half. However, Mills was also responsible for snuffing out Houston's last-gasp opportunity, throwing his second interception at the Eagles' three-yard line with just over two minutes remaining on an apparent miscommunication with Phillip Dorsett. Mills now has tossed four interceptions in the last three games and fallen short of 200 passing yards in two straight, but he could at least have Cooks back for a Week 10 road matchup against the Giants, considering Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports the veteran wideout is expected back at team facilities Friday.

Hurts completed 21 of 27 passes for 243 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed nine times for 23 yards in the Eagles' 29-17 win over the Texans on Thursday night. He also committed two fumbles, losing one, and recorded a two-point conversion run.

Hurts was under duress frequently courtesy of a feisty Texans front, taking four sacks and losing the football on one occasion. Houston also did a good job containing Hurts whenever he took off with the ball, but the third-year quarterback ultimately did plenty of damage through the air, primarily in conjunction with Dallas Goedert and A.J. Brown. Hurts connected with the latter for a 17-yard score shortly before the halfway point of the third quarter to break a 14-14 tie, and he subsequently hit his talented tight end for a four-yard touchdown early in the final period for the final points of the night. Hurts now boasts an 8:0 TD:INT over his last three games, giving him plenty of momentum going into a Week 10 home divisional showdown against the Commanders on Monday night, Nov. 14.

Tannehill (ankle) didn't practice Thursday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, Tannehill, who was limited in Wednesday's practice, was spotted in the locker room with his right ankle taped. In his absence from Thursday's session, Malik Willis logged added QB reps for Tennessee. Friday's final injury report should add a degree of clarity with regard to Tannehill's chances of being in uniform Sunday against Kansas City, but it seems inevitable that he'll head into the weekend with a Week 9 injury designation.

Rodgers (right thumb) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Rodgers maintained his activity level from Wednesday, giving him just one more chance to ditch his designation before the end of the week. He's been able to do so each of the previous three, though, meaning he's in line to keep up the streak and gain clearance prior to Sunday's contest at Detroit.

Tannehill (ankle) wasn't spotted during the open portion of Thursday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Tannehill was limited Wednesday, and if he indeed is deemed a non-participant Thursday, what he's able to do Friday will be telling with regard to his chances of playing Sunday against Kansas City after being inactive Week 8 against the Texans.

Rodgers (thumb) was limited at Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

As has been the case for each of the previous three weeks of practice, Rodgers will kick off a fourth with a cap on his reps. He's been able to ditch a designation before week's end on each occasion, so he'll likely do so again this week and be cleared for Sunday's game in Detroit.

Tannehill (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, saying afterward that he's still dealing with pain but may be able to play through it Sunday against the Chiefs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Tannehill hopes to make it back after missing just one game, but he isn't ready to make any proclamations. His mobility likely will be limited if he ends up playing, though he's barely run this year anyway, carrying 19 times for 29 yards and one touchdown. If Tannehill doesn't play, the Titans will again turn to rookie Malik Willis, who attempted only 10 passes in his first NFL start this past Sunday against Houston.

Darnold said Wednesday that he's "close to 100 percent" following the high left-ankle sprain he suffered in the Panthers' preseason finale, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.

Carolina designated Darnold for return from injured reserve Oct. 19, so the team has until next Tuesday to get him back on the active roster. Still, even if he's available this Sunday at Cincinnati, he won't be an option to start under center.PJ Walker will draw a start for a fourth consecutive contest, with Baker Mayfield serving as his backup. As a result, there's no telling when (or if) Darnold will have a chance to receive in-game reps.
