  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Spotted at practice

    London (knee) is present for practice Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    London limped off the field late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 21-15 loss to Tampa Bay and never had a chance to return after the Buccaneers sealed the game with three first downs. The rookie's 33.9 percent target share is good for the second-best mark in the NFL, but only the Bears have attempted fewer passes than the Falcons. Moreover, London has caught just nine of 20 passes for 106 yards the past three games after starting his career with 160 yards over the first two weeks. He at least seems to have avoided a serious injury and appears on track to play this coming Sunday against a stout 49ers defense.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Will be limited Wednesday

    Higgins (ankle) is in line to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Higgins was limited to 10 snaps on offense in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Ravens after aggravating an ankle sprain that had limited him in practice last week. Given that the wideout is slated to practice Wednesday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- Higgins has a chance to play this weekend against the Saints, but he'll need to practice fully by Friday in order to avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday.

  • Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Limited in practice

    Robinson (knee) will be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

    Robinson has missed four straight games due to a lingering knee injury. Last week, the rookie second-round pick was limited in two straight practices before sitting out entirely Friday, but it's unclear whether he experienced a setback in hsi recovery from the knee issue. Robinson's return to the field Wednesday in some capacity is at least somewhat encouraging, and he appears to have better odds of playing Sunday against the Ravens than the likes of Kenny Golladay (knee) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring), who aren't practicing to begin the week.

  • Kadarius Toney WR | CLE

    Giants' Kadarius Toney: Not practicing

    Toney (hamstrings) won't participate in Wednesday's practice, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

    Toney had been working his way back from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury before he strained his other hamstring while practicing last week. He ended up missing his third straight game in the Giants' win over the Packers, and his absence from practice doesn't bode well for his early chances of avoiding another absence this weekend against the Ravens. Kenny Golladay (knee) also isn't practicing Wednesday, while Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) will be a limited participant.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Not shut down for 2022

    Colts head coach Frank Reich said Wednesday that Dulin, who's currently on injured reserve with a foot injury, is expected to return this season, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Dulin was placed on IR on Tuesday after suffering the injury during the team's overtime win at Denver last Thursday. He'll be forced to miss at least four games and could be sidelined beyond that, but he should be back before the 2022 campaign concludes. Dulin had recorded at least one catch in all five of his appearances this season, but he secured just four receptions for 43 yards over the past three games after recording eight catches for 125 yards during the first two contests. In his absence, Mike Strachan and Parris Campbell are candidates for increased snaps behind Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.

  • Bills' Isaiah McKenzie: Clears concussion protocol

    McKenzie has cleared the NFL's concussion protocol and will be a full practice participant Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    McKenzie was inactive for the Bills' Week 5 win over the Steelers, but he's in line to return to action Sunday against the Chiefs. In his return to the lineup, McKenzie should reclaim a share of the team's slot work alongside Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, with rookie Khalil Shakir a candidate to mix in after catching three of his five targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in the win over Pittsburgh.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Raiders' Davante Adams: Facing assault charge

    Adams was charged with misdemeanor assault for shoving a credentialed media worker following the Raiders' loss to Kansas City on Monday, ESPN.com reports.

    According to court records released Wednesday, the wideout was cited for an "intentional, overt act" that inflicted "bodily injury." Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Adams could be facing discipline from the league, possibly including a suspension. With the Raiders on bye Week 6, Adams could be at risk of missing an Oct. 23 matchup with the Texans in Week 7.

  • Tyreek Hill WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Could play Week 6

    The Dolphins are optimistic that Hill (foot) will be able to suit up Sunday against the Vikings, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Hill had to wear a walking boot after suffering a left foot injury during Miami's Week 5 loss to the Jets, but the team is hopeful he won't need to miss any time. Even if Hill is ready to go Sunday, the Dolphins are expected to be without top quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) for a second straight game, and No. 2 option Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) isn't a sure bet to be available either. Having Hill on the field would certainly be beneficial for third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson if he ends up making his first career start, but the Pro Bowl wideout's status will likely come down to how much he's able to do in practice this week.

  • Texans' Phillip Dorsett: Minimal role in win

    Dorsett wasn't targeted over 11 snaps on offense Sunday in the Texans' 13-6 win over Jacksonville.

    With Chris Moore (hip) sitting out Week 5, Dorsett appeared to be in a good spot to earn more work, but the little-used Tyler Johnson (25 snaps) was the primary beneficiary instead. Dorsett has appeared in four games this season, catching one pass on four targets for 15 yards.

  • Tyler Johnson WR | DAL

    Texans' Tyler Johnson: Third-highest snap count Week 5

    Johnson wasn't targeted over 25 snaps on offense Sunday in Texans' 13-6 win over the Jaguars.

    Johnson was active for the second consecutive week and was handed the third-highest snap count among wideouts, moving ahead of Phillip Dorsett on the depth chart. He took the role that would normally go to the inactive Chris Moore (hip). If the Texans don't have to pass, they won't, so targets among the position group are typically scarce and usually go to Brandin Cooks or Nico Collins.
