Brown (thigh) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report.

The Eagles are placing listed restrictions on Brown's activity level this week due to a thigh injury, and now Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not he heads into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game versus the Bills. As one of four players in the NFL with at least 1,000 receiving yards this season, his status of course is of interest in the fantasy realm.

Iosivas (knee) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

After being limited Wednesday, Iosivas is now on track to be available Sunday against the Steelers. Assuming he's active, Iosivas would provide the Bengals with valuable depth at wideout Week 12, especially if Tee Higgins (hamstring) is unavailable this weekend.

Higgins (hamstring) remained listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice report, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Back-to-back DNPs set the stage for what (if anything) Higgins is able to do Friday to be telling with regard to his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Steelers. If he remains sidelined this weekend, Ja'Marr Chase, Tyler Boyd and Trenton Irwin would be in line to work as QB Jake Browning's top targets at wide receiver Week 12.

Burks (concussion) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Burks didn't practice Wednesday, so he's looking iffy at best for Sunday's game against the Panthers. If the wideout is ruled out for the contest, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Chris Moore and Kyle Philips would be in line to continue to see added snaps behind No. 1 WR DeAndre Hopkins this weekend.

Shepard (hip) was a full participant at Thursday's practice, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Shepard's full participation comes one day after logging a limited workload. Barring any setbacks, he looks on track to suit up in Sunday's matchup with the Patriots. The pass catcher has seen more playing time in recent weeks, but he is still seen as the third or fourth option at best in New York's receiving rotation.

Slayton (neck) is listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

After leaving this past Sunday's win at Washington due to an arm injury, Slayton was listed as a non-participant Wednesday due to a neck issue. Fortunately for the wide receiver, he upped his estimated activity level one day later and has one more chance to get back to full before the end of the week, when the Giants may give him a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Claypool (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Jets, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Claypool has been listed as limited in practice ahead of the contest, and his Week 12 status is unclear at this stage. That said, with just one catch for 15 yards on two targets in three games with the Dolphins to date, Claypool is off the fantasy radar for now.

Pickens (shin) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.

After being deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's session, Pickens' limited listing a day later has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. If the wideout is able to upgrade to full participation Friday, he'll have a chance to head into the weekend minus a Week 12 injury designation.

Godwin (knee/elbow) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report.

The Buccaneers continue to place listed restrictions on Godwin's activity level this week due to knee and elbow injuries, giving the wide receiver just one more chance to get back to full before week's end. Friday's practice report will unveil whether or not he enters the weekend with an injury designation for Sunday's game in Indianapolis.

Hill (hand) doesn't carry an injury designation for Friday's game against the Jets, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

A hand issue that had Hill listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate won't prevent the wideout from suiting up Friday, and barring any in-game setbacks, he figures to maintain a high-volume role in Miami's passing offense. Through 10 games to date, Hill is averaging a fantasy-friendly 7.9 catches for 122.2 yards per game to go along with nine TDs.
