Conley (oblique) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's injury report.

Conley has missed the first two practices of the week, putting his availability for Sunday's game against Arizona in jeopardy. The 2015 third-round pick will have to practice in some capacity Friday to give himself a shot at suiting up. With Jacob Cowing (shoulder) also missing a second straight practice, Ronnie Bell has a shot at serving as the 49ers' No. 4 wide receiver Sunday behind Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings.

Lockett (thigh) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Lockett is enduring practice limitations due to a thigh injury for a fourth week out of a possible five to kick off the campaign. So far, the issue hasn't stopped him from being available on game days, resulting in a cumulative 18-199-0 line on 26 targets in four contests. Friday's injury report ultimately may clear Lockett ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Giants.

Metcalf (hand) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Metcalf missed one session during Week 3 prep due to a hand issue, but he otherwise hasn't been hindered in practice until Thursday's capped showing. He currently has a streak of three consecutive 100-yard performances, so how he's listed on Friday's injury report will be of extra interest as the Seahawks continue to gear up for Sunday's game versus the Giants.

Osborn (shoulder) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Osborn also missed Wednesday's session, so he likely will need to practice in some capacity Friday in order to have a chance to play Sunday against the Dolphins. Either way, with five catches for 31 yards on 13 targets through in four games to date, Osborn carries modest fantasy value.

Davis (shoulder) remained limited at practice Thursday.

Davis also was limited Wednesday, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that his status for Sunday's game against the Colts is in danger. Friday's final injury report will reveal whether the wideout heads into the weekend with an injury designation.

Dell (chest) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Dell sat out the Texans' Week 4 win over the Jaguars with a bruised chest, but he looks to be trending in the right direction for Sunday's game against the Bills after turning in limited practices Wednesday and Thursday. The Texans will decide whether Dell carries an injury designation into the weekend following Friday's practice.

Thompson was elevated to the active roster from the practice squad for Thursday's game against the Falcons, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Thompson will get a chance to see his first action of the 2024 campaign, with Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Trey Palmer (concussion) ruled out for TNF. The Toledo product appeared in seven regular-season games for the Seahawks last season but saw just one target, which he hauled in for a 10-yard gain.

Brown (groin) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.

After opening Week 5 prep Wednesday as a limited participant, Brown's downgrade to no activity a day later creates more uncertainty about his status for Sunday's game against the Browns. The Commanders will wait and see what, if anything, Brown can do at Friday's practice before potentially handing him a designation heading into the weekend.

Woods (foot) didn't practice Thursday.

Woods practiced fully Wednesday, so his DNP a day later is notable. On the plus side for the Texans, Tank Dell (chest) has logged back-to-back limited sessions. If he's able to play Sunday against the Bills, Woods, if available, presumably would move back to a reserve role behind Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs and Dell.

Hardman (knee) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

Hardman will open the week on the team's injury report, but with the Chiefs not playing until Monday night against the Saints, he still has a few days to recuperate. If he's ultimately unable to play Skyy Moore and Xavier Worthy would be candidates to fill in as Kansas City's return men.
