Tonyan (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Tonyan was also limited in Wednesday's walkthrough practice. The 25-year-old has missed Green Bay's last three games, and if he's limited again Friday, a "questionable" injury tag could be in the cards Week 9.

Graham (ankle) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Though Graham's workload in practice was capped for the second straight day, the Packers haven't provided any indication he's trending toward sitting out Sunday's game against the Chargers. He'll likely enter the weekend minus an injury designation if he incurs no setbacks with his ankle during Friday's session.

Brown (concussion) will not practice Thursday, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Brown is working to clear the league's five-step protocol for head injuries. The 25-year-old will need to receive full clearance before retaking the field, including meeting with an independent neurologist, so he appears to be trending toward missing Sunday's tilt against the Broncos.

Tonyan (hip) was listed as a limited participant for Wednesday's walkthrough.

Tonyan has missed the last three games and finished last week as a non-participant before being listed as doubtful for Week 8. The 25-year-old would work behind Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis at tight end should he be cleared to play Sunday against the Chargers.

Graham (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The Packers merely held a walkthrough, but Graham nonetheless made his customary appearance on the injury report. With little to worry about as it pertains to his upcoming availability, he likely will have his designation removed entirely by the end of the week.

Daniels (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Daniels picked up an ankle issue Week 8 versus the Saints, but he already looks to have fully recovered. The 24-year-old is on track to suit up against the 49ers on Thursday Night Football, during which he'll play his usual role on special teams.

Brown was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a concussion, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Brown played 29 offensive snaps and 21 special-teams snaps in Sunday's loss to the Patriots, but he likely picked up the head injury somewhere along the way. The 25-year-old has started the last five games but has only two catches for 27 yards. Brown will need to fully clear the five-step concussion protocol before returning to game action.

Moreau caught one of his two targets for a 10-yard gain during Sunday's 27-24 loss to Houston.

After three consecutive games with multiple catches along with two touchdowns, Moreau took a step back against a so-so Texans defense Sunday. The rookie has been an OK No. 2 tight end for the Raiders but plays behind a stud in Darren Waller, who hogs a ton of targets. Moreau is not a safe bet Sunday, even against Detroit's bottom-ranked pass defense.

Vannett caught his only target for a 15-yard gain during Monday's 27-14 win over Miami.

After getting traded to Pittsburgh from Seattle for a fifth-round pick, Vannett has yet to be much of a difference maker as a receiver, with just four catches on six targets for 48 yards in four games. He has yet to be targeted in the red zone this season either as a Seahawk or Steeler. A middle-of-the-pack Colts pass defense awaits Sunday.

Daniels (ankle) was listed as a limited participant for Tuesday's practice.

Daniels was listed as a non-participant for Monday's estimated session but, as evidenced by this news, has already progressed heading into Thursday's game against the 49ers. If the 24-year-old is active for Week 9, it likely won't affect the offense, as he's primarily been used on special teams since he was elevated from the practice squad in early October.
