Higgins remains in concussion protocol Wednesday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Bengals coach Zac Taylor hinted at Higgins still needing to clear multiple steps of the protocol, which isn't surprising after he suffered his second concussion of the season in Week 14 and then managed just two limited practices in Week 15. There's also some chance Cincinnati's lack of playoff hopes factors into the situation, though QB Joe Burrow has been adamant about trying to right the ship down the stretch. Mitchell Tinsley is the favorite to take most of Higgins' vacated snaps (again) if Higgins is unavailable Sunday at Miami.

McMillan (foot/ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

McMillan is sitting out Carolina's first practice session of Week 16 due to a pair of injuries. He wasn't listed on the team's injury report leading up to the Week 15 loss to the Saints, in which he tallied two catches for 25 yards on four targets, the lowest yardage total of his NFL career. The rookie first-round pick will have two more opportunities to retake the practice field ahead of Sunday's key divisional matchup against the Buccaneers. Head coach Dave Canales said McMillan is day-to-day, per David Newton of ESPN.com.

Lamb is not participating in the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Lamb cleared the NFL's concussion protocol in time to suit up for Dallas' loss to the Vikings in Week 15, in which he tallied his third consecutive 100-yard performance. Now, it remains to be seen whether the star wide receiver is dealing with another injury or simply receiving a day of rest. Lamb and the Cowboys' passing game are set for a difficult home matchup against the Chargers' defense on Sunday.

Price returned six kickoffs for 143 yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Price also took the field for a play on offense, but the depth receiver has yet to touch the ball as anything but a return man through his first 14 NFL games. While ball security (four fumbles) has been somewhat of an issue for Price, he's provided a boost to the Minnesota special teams with an average of 26.0 yards per kickoff return and 9.9 yards per punt return.

Felton went without a target while taking the field for only one of the Vikings' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Felton notched his second reception of the season in a Week 14 blowout win over the Commanders, but he went back to having a nonexistent role on offense in a more tightly contested Week 15 contest. The rookie third-round pick out of Maryland is expected to continue seeing most of his playing time on special teams rather than offense while all of the Vikings' top three receivers -- Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor -- are available.

Bateman (ankle) is participating in Wednesday's practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Bateman will likely be limited Wednesday, but it's encouraging to see him back on the practice field after he missed Baltimore's win over the Bengals in Week 15. He was added to the injury report as limited last Thursday then missed practice entirely Friday. Bateman's production has been disappointing in 2025, as across 11 regular-season appearances he's tallied just 18 catches for 217 yards and two scores on 36 targets.

Thornton (concussion) won't practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Thornton sustained a concussion in the Week 15 loss to the Chargers, so it's no surprise he won't practice Wednesday. The fourth-year pro has been one of Kansas City's most productive receivers this season, catching 19 of 36 targets for 438 yards and three touchdowns while also accumulating 475 kick-return yards. He must still clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Titans on Sunday.

Plumlee joined the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

The UCF product was dropped from the Steelers' practice squad on Dec. 16, but it now appears the team had a change of heart. Plumlee has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 505 rushing yards and five touchdowns during his final collegiate season in 2023.

Restrepo (ankle) will practice Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

The rookie wideout from Miami was carted off the field in the Week 13 loss to the Jaguars due to an ankle injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. Although Restrepo remains on Tennessee's practice squad, he could be elevated to the active roster to ensure depth at wide receiver for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

Oliver (knee) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The Youngstown State product has been sidelined since the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Rams due to a knee injury, but it now appears he's nearing a return. Once fully healthy, Oliver is expected to play a depth role in Tennessee's receiving corps while also contributing on special teams.
