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.

Claypool (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Claypool was unable to play in Week 11 and his status for Friday's game will remain in question for another day. Even if he is able to suit up against the Jets, the Notre Dame product would likely have a minimal role in the team's deep receiving corps.

Hollins (ankle) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.

Hollins operated with a cap on his reps Wednesday, so his downgrade in activity one day later is a worrisome sign for his potential to play Week 12. Friday's injury report could be telling for Hollins in that regard.

Kupp (ankle) is slated to practice Thursday, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

Kupp didn't return to this past Sunday's win against the Seahawks after suffering what eventually diagnosed as a low right-ankle sprain in the second quarter. He was unable to practice Wednesday, so his expected return to the field one day later seemingly is a good sign as the Rams make their way through Week 12 prep. Thursday's injury report will reveal Kupp's activity level.

Jefferson (hamstring) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

As he has been since the Vikings designated him for return from injured reserve on Nov. 8, Jefferson remains limited on the team's injury report. Coach Kevin O'Connell told Lewis on Wednesday that Jefferson "is getting closer. He is feeling really, really good. ... We're not going to allow outside circumstances of the team" determine the decision to activate the wide receiver from IR. Minnesota doesn't need to do so until Monday afternoon in order for him to be available against the Bears in Week 12. Having said that, with a Week 13 bye on tap, the Vikings have leeway to make sure Jefferson truly is past the strained right hamstring that he suffered back in Week 5.

Hardman (thumb) wasn't present for practice Thursday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Hardman, who is dealing with a sprained thumb, also missed Wednesday's practice, so unless the wideout works fully Friday, he'll likely approach Sunday's game against the Raiders with an injury designation. In four games with the Chiefs since coming over in a trade with the Jets last month, Hardman has caught eight of his 10 targets for 41 yards, a pace that keeps him off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats.

Wicks (concussion/knee) is inactive for Thursday's game at Detroit, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Considering Wicks was listed as limited only one time during Week 12 prep, he was a long shot to clear the concussion protocol on a short week. With the rookie fifth-round pick sidelined, Malik Heath, Samori Toure and Bo Melton will be the Packers' options at wide receiver behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed (chest).
