Rashid Shaheed WR | SEA
Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Unlikely to practice Thursday
Shaheed (knee) is unlikely to practice Thursday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Coach Mike Macdonald provided the update Thursday, stating that the wideout is "doing well" but was not quite ready to return to practice. Shaheed exited Sunday's win over the Chiefs with a knee injury, which is not expected to keep him out long-term. He gets an extra day to rehab as the Seahawks get ready for their Monday Night Football matchup with the Bears.

A.J. Brown WR | NE
Patriots' A.J. Brown: Status against Dolphins in doubt
Brown (knee/ankle) is sidelined Thursday by a knee issue that flared up, and the wide receiver's status for Sunday against the Dolphins is up in the air, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Brown is contending with a new knee injury in addition to the ankle injury through which he has played the last two weeks after missing the previous four. The wideout's fantasy managers should start forming contingency plans in case he sits out Sunday against the Dolphins, though Brown could change the narrative by returning to practice Friday.

DJ Moore WR | BUF
Bills' DJ Moore: Non-contact jersey in practice Thursday
Moore (shoulder) was in a red non-contact jersey for a second straight day Thursday, Jay Skurski of the Buffalo News reports.
Moore continues to practice but has not been taking contact this week. If he sheds the non-contact jersey Friday, it'll be a strong indicator for his status going into Sunday's game against the Ravens. Moore has missed the last two weeks due to an AC joint injury.

A.J. Brown WR | NE
Patriots' A.J. Brown: Not seen at Thursday's practice
Brown (ankle/knee) was not present during the media-viewing portion of Thursday's practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Brown looks to be trending in the wrong direction after being listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice. He has caught just six of 16 targets for 75 yards in two games since returning from a stint on IR due to an ankle injury. Brown's activity level Friday could be pivotal for his availability Sunday against the Dolphins.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | PHI
Eagles' Dontayvion Wicks: Absent for another practice
Wicks (ankle) isn't participating Thursday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Wicks hasn't practiced in any fashion since Week 6 while he continues to manage an ankle injury. Unless he's able to get back on the field in some capacity Friday, Wicks will likely be ruled out for a second straight game this Sunday at Washington.

DeVonta Smith WR | PHI
Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Not spotted at practice
Smith (hamstring) wasn't spotted during the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Smith was a non-participant at Wednesday's walkthrough, and he doesn't appear ready to rejoin his teammates one day later. He has sat out three of the past four games and will likely need to practice in at least some capacity Friday to have a chance to play Sunday night against the Commanders.

Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN
Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: In uniform Thursday
Chase (ankle) is in uniform for Thursday's practice, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Chase has resumed practicing after sitting out Wednesday. Thursday's return to action supports an earlier report that from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that Chase isn't dealing with a significant ankle injury, though it remains to be seen whether Chase is able to practice without limitations. The 4-2 Bengals will face the 1-6 Titans on Sunday.

Amon-Ra St. Brown WR | DET
Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Returns to practice Thursday
St. Brown (ankle) returned to practice Thursday, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.
Head coach Dan Campbell gave some key players a day off Wednesday, with St. Brown among them. The star wideout is practicing the following day. If St. Brown manages to practice without limitations, he'll eliminate any remaining doubts about his availability for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
-
Carnell Tate WR | TEN
Titans' Carnell Tate: Won't practice Thursday
Tate (shoulder) won't practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Tate also sat out Wednesday due to this injury. The rookie fourth overall pick will have one more opportunity to practice in some capacity Friday ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. If Tate sits out a game for the first time in his young career, Elic Ayomanor and Calvin Ridley (hip) could get more downfield targets while Wan'Dale Robinson runs his customary short and intermediate routes.

Emeka Egbuka WR | TB
Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Practicing in regular jersey
Egbuka (concussion/foot) is wearing a regular jersey at Thursday's practice, suggesting he has been cleared for contact, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Egbuka was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, and it remains to be seen whether he can upgrade to full participation Thursday, but he looks to be trending in the right direction on his quest to clear concussion protocol prior to Sunday's game against the Falcons. The 2025 first-round pick sat out Tampa Bay's Week 7 win over the Panthers, so if Egbuka returns to action Sunday, he would be catching passes from Baker Mayfield in a game for the first time since Week 3.
