Allen (shoulder) is active for Thursday night's contest against the 49ers, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official website reports.

Allen was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, but he's now all set to play in Week 15. The tight end hasn't caught a pass since Week 10 while garnering just one target over the last four contests.

Johnson (foot) was limited at Thursday's practice.

For a second week in a row, the Saints are placing a cap on Johnson's reps due to a foot issue. Despite being limited all of last week, though, he entered the weekend without a designation for this past Sunday's game at the Giants, when both he and Foster Moreau played 49 of 68 offensive snaps. Johnson was the more productive of the duo in the team's first contest without Taysom Hill (torn ACL): Johnson had a 4-50-1 line on five targets, while Moreau went for 2-40-0 on two targets. Friday's practice report will unveil whether or not Johnson has a designation ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Commanders.

McBride (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

McBride so far is operating with a cap on his reps during Week 15 prep, and he'll have one more chance Friday to get back to full participation before the Cardinals potentially give him a designation for Sunday's contest against the Patriots. Since Arizona's Week 11 bye, he's been running on all cylinders over the last three games, gathering in 31 of 41 targets for 299 yards, but he hasn't yet recorded a receiving TD through 12 outings this season.

Engram (shoulder) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Head coach Doug Pederson noted Wednesday that he anticipated Engram being available for Sunday's game against the Jets, but back-to-back absences from practice make the tight end's status worth tracking, nonetheless. If Engram ends up limited or out this weekend, Brenton Strange and Luke Farrell would be in line to see added snaps Week 15.

Njoku (hamstring) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Back-to-back absences from practice cloud Njoku's status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, with offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey noting Thursday that if the Browns' top tight end is unavailable this weekend, the team would employ a committee approach at the position, per Cabot. In that scenario, Jordan Akins and Blake Whiteheart would see added Week 15 opportunities, with Tre' McKitty and Cameron Latu being potential practice-squad elevations.

Holker played six of the Saints' 68 snaps on offense and recorded a 10-yard reception on his lone target in Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants.

The reception was the first of Holker's career. The undrafted rookie has been buried on the depth chart all season and has seen light snaps in his eight appearances thus far, though he'll have a slightly bigger window of opportunity behind tight ends Juwan Johnson and Foster Moreau after Taysom Hill (knee) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 13.

Allen (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against San Francisco, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Allen was a limited participant in practice Wednesday after being listed as a non-participant the first two days of the week, though Los Angeles didn't practice Monday and held a walk-through session Tuesday. His playing time has trended down since logging 81 percent of Los Angeles' offensive snaps Week 10, and he hasn't caught a pass in four straight games. If Allen misses Thursday's matchup, Hunter Long could be in line for more work on offense.

Musgrave (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

With his return to on-field work, Musgrave's 21-day window in which to be evaluated and potentially activated from injured reserve has opened up. It's unclear if he has any chance to suit up Sunday at Seattle, but the Packers could make a ruling on his upcoming availability Friday (via their final Week 15 injury report) or Saturday (the deadline for him to be activated from IR this week). If he's cleared to play Sunday, Musgrave still would be the second option at tight end behind Tucker Kraft.

Higbee (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at San Francisco, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

For a second week in a row, Higbee was listed as a full participant on all three Rams injury reports, but the team isn't quite ready to clear him for his first game action since Jan. 14, when he suffered ACL and MCL tears in his right knee in a playoff loss at Detroit. Los Angeles has one week remaining to activate Higbee from the reserve/PUP list, or else he'll miss the entire 2024 campaign. In the meantime, Colby Parkinson, Hunter Long and Davis Allen (shoulder) will continue to serve as the Rams' tight ends.

Johnson practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday due to a foot injury, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

With Taysom Hill out for the season due to a torn ACL, Johnson and Foster Moreau handled the reps at tight end in this past Sunday's win over the Giants, with both players playing 49 of 68 offensive snaps. Both got in the act as pass catchers, with Johnson hauling in four of five targets for 50 yards and one touchdown and Moreau reeling in both targets for 40 yards. Johnson also tended to a foot injury last week, so there's a decent chance he's cleared for this coming Sunday's contest against the Commanders by week's end even if he remains limited in the Saints' final two practices of the week.
