Konata Mumpfield WR | LAR
Rams' Konata Mumpfield: Upgrades to full practice Thursday
Mumpfield (calf) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
The return to full participation is a great sign for Mumpfield, who had his most productive game of the season in Sunday night's win over the Buccaneers. If the wide receiver avoids a setback Friday, he will likely be good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Panthers.

Wan'Dale Robinson WR | TEN
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Dealing with ankle injury
Robinson (ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
In the second game with QB Jameis Winston under center in place of Jaxson Dart (concussion) this past Sunday at Detroit, Robinson busted out with nine catches (on 14 targets) for 156 yards and one touchdown. Both Robinson and fellow WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) were listed as limited Thursday, while the Giants announced that Dart cleared the protocol for head injuries. Robinson thus will be working with Dart if he's able to attain active status himself for Monday's contest at New England.

Jalen Tolbert WR | MIA
Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Active for Thursday's game
Tolbert is active for Thursday's game against the Chiefs, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Tolbert was a surprising healthy scratch versus the Eagles in Week 12, but he'll suit up versus Kansas City on Thanksgiving Day. He essentially remains off the fantasy radar, though, given he's logged less than 20 percent of offensive snaps in each of the last three games. Jonathan Mingo (coach's decision) is inactive Thursday with Tolbert taking the field.

Jonathan Mingo WR | DAL
Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Healthy scratch Thanksgiving Day
Mingo (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Chiefs, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Mingo has consistently been a healthy scratch since returning from IR late October, as his first game being listed as active came Week 12 versus the Eagles. With Jalen Tolbert now back in the lineup versus Kansas City, however, Mingo reverts to his usual role. His next chance to suit up will come Thursday, Dec. 4 versus the Lions in Week 14.

Amon-Ra St. Brown WR | DET
Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Ruled out of Thanksgiving matchup
St. Brown (ankle) won't return to Thursday's contest against the Packers.
St. Brown exited in the first quarter after the first play of the Lions' second possession after he was rolled up on by two Lions offensive linemen. He'll thus finish Week 13 action with no catches (on one target) and turn his focus to next Thursday's matchup with the Cowboys. Jameson Williams will handle the No. 1 WR role for the Lions for the rest of this Thursday's outing.

Brian Thomas Jr. WR | JAC
Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Logs full practice Thursday
Thomas (ankle) practiced fully Thursday.
This past Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network indicated that Thomas -- who last played in Week 9 -- had a good chance to return to action in Week 13 versus the Titans, and the wideout's return to a full practice Thursday paves the way for that to occur. In the eight contests he's been available for, Thomas has recorded a 30-420-1 line on 60 targets, a pace down from his strong level of output in 2024, yet enough to make the Jaguars' top WR worthy of fantasy lineup consideration in his looming return to the lineup.

Tutu Atwell WR | MIA
Rams' Tutu Atwell: Practices in full again
Atwell (hamstring), who officially remains on IR, was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Atwell has logged two straight full practices since having his 21-day window opened Wednesday. The expectation is that Los Angeles will activate Atwell to the 53-man roster from IR in time for him to suit up for Sunday's road matchup against Carolina.

Josh Palmer WR | BUF
Bills' Joshua Palmer: Misses Thursday's practice
Palmer (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.
Palmer was limited Wednesday, so his downgrade in participation a day later clouds his Week 13 status. Friday's final injury report will clarify whether the wideout -- who has caught two passes in each of his last five games -- heads into the weekend with a chance to face the Steelers on Sunday.
-
Elic Ayomanor WR | TEN
Titans' Elic Ayomanor: Limited again Thursday
Ayomanor (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Ayomanor was also limited in his return to practice Wednesday. The rookie fourth round-pick was kept on the sidelines against Seattle in Week 12 due to a hamstring injury, but he's making notable recovery progress ahead of Sunday's home game against the Jaguars. If Ayomanor can manage to upgrade to full practice reps Friday, he could avoid an injury designation entirely for Week 13.

DK Metcalf WR | PIT
Steelers' DK Metcalf: No restrictions at practice
Metcalf (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Metcalf injured his ankle during Pittsburgh's loss to the Bears in Week 12 but managed to play through the issue, and after sitting out Wednesday's session, it appears he's now fully on track for Sunday's game against the Bills. The same can be said for quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who sat out Week 12 due to a left wrist fracture but is now practicing in full while wearing a cast. Metcalf has drawn at least seven targets in four of his last five regular-season appearances, giving him a solid floor. That said, Metcalf hasn't scored or topped 50 receiving yards in four straight games, and in back-to-back contests he's finished without so much as a target in the red zone. Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports that Metcalf's left ankle remained taped at Thursday's practice.
