Michael Wilson WR | ARI
Cardinals' Michael Wilson: Spectator for Thursday's practice
Wilson (shoulder) isn't taking part in Thursday's practice, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Wilson will go down as a non-participant on the Cardinals' injury report for the second day in a row after he sustained a shoulder injury late in this past Sunday's loss to the Ravens. The Cardinals haven't confirmed that Wilson's injury is something significant, but the rookie wideout's status for this Sunday's game in Cleveland is nonetheless in question at the moment. Wilson will likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to have a legitimate chance at playing this weekend.

Odell Beckham Jr. WR | NYG
Ravens' Odell Beckham: Returns to practice
Beckham (shoulder) was back at practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Beckham missed Wednesday's practice, but his return to Thursday's session is a positive indicator ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks. The Ravens' looming injury report will clarify the wideout's participation level in his return to the field following a one-day absence.

Robert Woods WR | PIT
Texans' Robert Woods: Absent for another practice
Woods (foot) isn't practicing Thursday, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Woods hasn't practiced in any capacity following the Texans' Week 7 bye and appears on track to miss a second straight game Sunday against the Buccaneers. Look for Houston to officially rule Woods out for the Week 9 contest when the team releases its final injury report Friday. Woods' expected absence this weekend should pave the way for Tank Dell and Noah Brown to see steady playing time alongside No. 1 wideout Nico Collins in three-receiver sets.
-
Curtis Samuel WR | BUF
Commanders' Curtis Samuel: No practice Thursday
Samuel (toe) missed Thursday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Samuel now has back-to-back absences under his belt this week due to the toe injury that he suffered this past Sunday against the Eagles. If he's limited or sidelined this weekend, the most likely candidates to see more work are Dyami Brown and Jamison Crowder behind starters Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson.

DeVante Parker WR | PHI
Patriots' DeVante Parker: Remains sidelined Thursday
Parker (concussion) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Parker also missed practice Wednesday, clouding his status for Sunday's game against the Commanders. If Parker is unavailable this weekend, Demario Douglas, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Jalen Reagor could profile as the Patriots' top three wideouts, with Tyquan Thornton and Kayshon Boutte potentially seeing expanded roles behind the trio.

Michael Gallup WR | WAS
Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Back at practice Thursday
Gallup (illness) returned to practice Thursday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Gallup saw his playing time dialed back in last Sunday's win over the Rams, playing a season-low 51 percent of the offensive snaps, as Jalen Tolbert saw increased work behind CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks. Gallup has failed to crack 24 yards in any of his last three games and in five of seven games overall. With that in mind, he's off the fantasy radar outside of deeper leagues.

DeAndre Hopkins WR | BAL
Titans' DeAndre Hopkins: Likely to play Thursday night
Hopkins (toe) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Thursday against the Steelers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
On a short week, Hopkins got in a pair of limited practices Monday and Tuesday before missing Wednesday's session. Throughout his career, Hopkins has shown an ability to play in games without practicing much or at all in the week leading up to a game, so the Titans may have simply been giving the 31-year-old receiver some extra time to get his body ready for Thursday. Hopkins is coming off a three-touchdown performance in the Titans' Week 8 win over Atlanta, which came with rookie Will Levis under center. Levis will start again in place of the injured Ryan Tannehill (ankle), and Hopkins should represent the signal-caller's top target in the passing game. Hopkins' availability will be confirmed when Tennessee releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Odell Beckham Jr. WR | NYG
Ravens' Odell Beckham: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Beckham didn't practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.
Beckham exited this past Sunday's win over the Cardinals after sustaining a stomach contusion, but was subsequently able to return to action. The wideout is dealing with a different injury to be begin Week 9 prep, however, so his status will need to be monitored ahead of this Sunday's game against the Seahawks. After catching a season-high five passes on seven targets for 49 yards in Week 7, Beckham didn't record any receptions on four targets versus Arizona.

Tyler Lockett WR | LV
Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: Sits out Wednesday's practice
Lockett (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Dating back to Week 7 prep, Lockett now has been listed as a non-participant on four of the Seahawks' last five injury reports due to a hamstring issue, but it hasn't stopped him from suiting up the last two contests on his way to 12 catches (on 14 targets) for 119 yards and one touchdown. He may follow a similar practice pattern until his hamstring is back to 100 percent, but his availability for game days doesn't appear to be in much question.
-
Chris Moore WR | BAL
Titans' Chris Moore: Slated to play Thursday
Moore, who missed practice Monday and Tuesday for personal reasons, was back with the Titans on Wednesday and doesn't carry an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Steelers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Though he'll be available Thursday, Moore's fantasy upside is limited as long as DeAndre Hopkins (toe), Treylon Burks, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine are all available to handle snaps at receiver. Hopkins is listed as questionable for the Week 9 contest, but no reports have indicated that he's in real danger of sitting out Thursday.
