Breece Hall RB | NYJ
Jets' Breece Hall: Another limited session
Hall (hamstring) remained a limited participant at practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
With another limited session under his belt, Hall will presumably need to practice fully Friday in order to approach Sunday's game against the Falcons without an injury designation. Assuming he's available this weekend, Hall will be in line to continue to lead the Jets backfield. If Hall ends up limited or sits out versus Atlanta, however, Dalvin Cook would be first in line for increased snaps and touches.

Travis Etienne RB | NO
Jaguars' Travis Etienne: Limited by rib issue
Etienne was listed as a limited participant at practice Thursday due to a rib injury.
Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson told Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union earlier Thursday that Etienne was day-to-day with a chest injury, but Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville confirms that the running back is indeed managing a rib issue. Etienne now has two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals, but O'Brien notes that the Jaguars' leading rusher sounded encouraged Thursday regarding his Week 13 availability.

Raheem Mostert RB | LV
Dolphins' Raheem Mostert: Limited in return to practice
Mostert (ankle/knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
After missing Wednesday session, Mostert was back on the field Thursday, albeit as a partial participant. Fellow running back De'Von Achane (knee) joined Mostert as a limited participant, and Friday's injury report should provide added clarity with regard to both players' chances of suiting up Sunday against the Commanders. So far, the Dolphins haven't suggested that Mostert is in any danger of being sidelined this weekend.

De'Von Achane RB | MIA
Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Maintains limited practice activity
Achane (knee) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
After sitting out the Dolphins' 34-13 win over the Jets last Friday, Achane has opened Week 13 prep with a pair of limited practices. Though the aggravation his knee injury doesn't look to be anything that will put him at risk of another stint on injured reserve, Achane may need to put in a full practice Friday to avoid a second straight missed game this Sunday in Washington. If Achane can't play, Jeff Wilson would likely be in line to work in a supporting role behind lead back Raheem Mostert (ankle/knee).

David Montgomery RB | HOU
Lions' David Montgomery: Puts in full practice
Montgomery (foot) was a full practice participant Thursday.
Montgomery was a limited participant Wednesday in the Lions' first Week 13 practice, but his ability to take every rep a day later clears up any concern about his availability for Sunday's game in New Orleans. Since overcoming a rib injury following the Lions' Week 9 bye, the fifth-year running back is averaging 13.7 touches and 95.0 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring a touchdown in each of Detroit's last three contests.

Keaontay Ingram RB | KC
Keaontay Ingram: Heads to Kansas City
The Chiefs signed Ingram to their practice squad Thursday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
The second-year running back out of USC has already found a new home after the Cardinals waived him just two days ago. Ingram saw an increased workload in Arizona while James Conner was on injured reserve, appearing in eight games and logging 100 yards from scrimmage on 39 touches. If Jerick McKinnon (groin) is unable to suit up this weekend, Ingram has a chance at being elevated to the Chiefs' active roster.

Aaron Jones RB | MIN
Packers' Aaron Jones: Not practicing Thursday
Jones (knee) took part in Thursday's team stretch but ultimately didn't practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
While fellow running back AJ Dillon (groin) returned to practice after sitting out Wednesday, Jones remains sidelined due to the MCL sprain that he sustained Week 11 against the Chargers. Jones' absence from the Packers' Thanksgiving visit to the Lions thus wasn't surprising on a short week, but his inability to log any on-field work one week later implies a multi-game absence may be in store. Friday's injury report could be telling for Jones' status ahead of Sunday's game versus the Chiefs.

Raheem Mostert RB | LV
Dolphins' Raheem Mostert: Back at practice
Mostert (ankle/knee) returned to practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Mostert didn't practice Wednesday, so the running back's return to Thursday's session has him moving in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. Miami's looming injury report is slated to reveal Mostert's official participation level as he mixed into drills again.

AJ Dillon RB | CAR
Packers' AJ Dillon: Back at practice Thursday
Dillon (groin) returned to practice Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Dillon didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field a day later has the running back trending in a positive direction ahead of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs. The Packers' upcoming injury report will reveal Dillon's participation level Thursday.
-
Jerick McKinnon RB | KC
Chiefs' Jerick McKinnon: Returning to practice
McKinnon (groin) is in line to practice Thursday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
McKinnon didn't practice Wednesday, but his looming return to practice has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday night's game against the Packers. Kansas City's next injury report will clarify the running back's participation level.
