Claypool (knee) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Claypool also didn't practice Wednesday, so the wideout likely will need to work in some capacity Friday in order to have a chance to play Sunday against the Raiders. In three games with the Dolphins thus far, Claypool has just one catch for 15 yards, so until his role in the offense expands he'll be off the fantasy radar.

Berrios (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Berrios missed Wednesday's session, but his return to the field a day later has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders. The Dolphins' upcoming injury report will relay whether Berrios practiced fully or was limited Thursday.

Bourne (knee) underwent surgery to repair his right ACL on Wednesday and is expected to be ready for the start of training camp in the coming offseason, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Bourne, who landed on injured reserve in late October, will miss the rest of the 2023 campaign but is already on the road to recovery. He tallied a 37-406-4 receiving line on 55 targets across the first eight games of the season, while operating as the Patriots' most productive wideout. The 28-year-old is on track to become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, but New England could have incentive to re-sign him, assuming his recovery goes smoothly.

Young (abdomen) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The second-year wideout missed the first eight games of the season with a groin injury but made his 2023 debut last week against the Commanders, playing two offensive snaps and 17 on special teams.

Humphrey played 14 of Denver's 75 snaps on offense and reeled in his lone target for a 14-yard reception in Monday's 24-22 win over the Bills.

Humphrey ranked a distant fourth among Denver receivers in snaps, trailing Courtland Sutton (65), Marvin Mims (52) and Jerry Jeudy (49). With the rookie Mims beginning to carve out a larger role and with head coach Sean Payton continuing to show a proclivity for two-tight end sets, Humphrey doesn't look as though he'll be able to reclaim significant snaps anytime soon.

Lockett (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

For a fifth consecutive week, the Seahawks are placing some practice restrictions on Lockett due to a lingering hamstring issue. The injury hasn't stopped him from suiting up on game days, as he's put together a 23-243-2 receiving line on 32 targets over the last four contests. Lockett will have two more opportunities this week to get back to full activity before the team potentially gives him a designation for Sunday's road matchup with the Rams.

Mims was listed as limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report due to an ankle injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

In Monday's 24-22 win over the Bills, Mims logged a season-high 52 snaps on offense, three more Jerry Jeudy and 13 fewer than Courtland Sutton. Despite the uptick in playing time, the rookie second-round draft pick didn't record a catch versus Buffalo. He thus remains a speculative fantasy option in advance of this weekend's game against the Vikings, provided he can overcome his ankle injury.

Watson was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a shoulder injury, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Watson suffered back and chest injuries in the fourth quarter of the Packers' Week 9 win against the Rams, but neither issue affected his practice reps last Wednesday through Friday. Following Green Bay's Week 10 loss to PIttsburgh, he's tending to a new health concern, so his status should be watched as the week continues to see if he may be in danger of sitting out Sunday against the Chargers.

Claypool didn't practice Wednesday due to a knee injury.

Over his first three games with the Dolphins, Claypool has logged just one catch for 15 yards on two targets, so until he gets a full and productive game in, he'll be off the fantasy radar. Claypool now has two more chances to return to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Berrios (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.

Coming off the Dolphins' bye, Berrios continues to manage a hamstring injury that resulted in him being listed as questionable ahead of Miami's Week 9 loss to the Chiefs in Germany. Berrios proceeded to suit up in that contest, but he played a season-low 17 snaps on offense and finished without a target in the passing game for the first time all season. He'll need to upgrade to full participation in practice by Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Raiders.
