Watson (undisclosed) headed to the locker room during the second quarter of Thursday night's game against the Panthers, Dominique Yates of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Watson was injured when he hauled in a 53-yard deep shot from Jordan Love. Prior to exiting, he caught six of seven targets for 100 yards. Savion Williams, Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant will be in line for more snaps while Watson is in the locker room.

Thompson (quadriceps/hamstring) did not practice Thursday.

It was a second consecutive DNP for Thompson, who has been battling multiple injuries for weeks. The 23-year-old was cleared to play in Week 6 versus the Chiefs after missing the three previous games, though he didn't play. It appears Thompson may not be available for the Week 8 meeting with the Rams, especially if he doesn't practice Friday.

Turpin (ribs) was a non-participant in practice Thursday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Turpin was also a DNP on Wednesday, though that was a walkthrough. The Cowboys held a standard practice Thursday, and Turpin was unable to participate, casting doubt on his availability for Sunday's game against Arizona. Still, Turpin will have a chance to log at least a limited session Friday ahead of the weekend.

Wayne (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Wayne was also limited Wednesday, so his status for Sunday's clash against New England is hazy. Unless he's able to upgrade to full participation Friday, the wideout will likely be tagged with a designation heading into the weekend. In his debut with the Dolphins this past Sunday versus Tennessee, Wayne didn't draw a target on 10 offensive snaps while also playing six snaps on special teams.

Gould (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Gould suffered a concussion in the Week 6 loss to the Titans and didn't play versus the Vikings in Week 7. He was estimated as limited in Wednesday's walkthrough, though his full participation in Thursday's practice suggests he will be out there Sunday versus the Jaguars.

Skowronek (calf) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Skowronek has missed each of Pittsburgh's past two games due to the calf issue. His ability to begin Week 8 prep with consecutive limited sessions gives the veteran wideout a chance to return Sunday versus Cleveland, though he'll likely carry a designation into the weekend if he's not able to log a full session Friday. When healthy this season, Skowronek has seen limited opportunities on offense, recording just three catches for 32 yards and a touchdown on four targets through five contests.

Wilson (ribs) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

For a second day in a row, Wilson was donning a yellow non-contact jersey on the practice field, and he received the same limited listing as a result. He relayed to Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com on Wednesday that he's tending to sore ribs, but there's been no indication that he's in danger of missing Sunday's game in Dallas. Friday's injury report will reveal if Wilson has a designation ahead of that matchup.

Shaheed (knee) did not practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Shaheed was injured in last Sunday night's win over the Chiefs, but indications are he avoided a serious injury. If he's unable to play Monday night against the Bears, Tory Horton will slot into WR3 duties behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp.

Harris (hamstring) remained limited in Thursday's practice.

Harris suffered his hamstring injury in Week 5 against Denver and missed Week 6 ahead of last week's bye. With back-to-back limited practices to open Week 8 prep, Harris has a decent chance of suiting up Sunday against the Rams. In a broken Chargers offense, it's difficult to get excited about anyone on the team for fantasy.

Mims (ankle) practiced fully Thursday,Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Mims was a limited participant in Wednesday's session, but the wideout's full participation a day later sets the stage for him to be available Sunday against the Chiefs. The 2023 second-rounder has two catches in each of his last three games, with his Week 8 fantasy upside linked to the status of top WR Jaylen Waddle, who is managing a chest injury.
