Brown (thigh) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Browns, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Brown was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, after missing his first game of the season last Sunday in Chicago. He's one of 10 Ravens listed as questionable for Sunday night, and while Brown's thigh injury doesn't seem to be too serious, he may come down to a game-time decision. Meanwhile, QB Lamar Jackson is back in the lineup and reportedly feeling healthy after an illness kept him out for Week 11.

Brown (chest) won't play Sunday against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

With Brown unavailable and Julio Jones and Marcus Johnson both on IR with hamstring injuries, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Chester Rogers and Dez Fitzpatrick are in line to head the Titans' Week 12 wideout corps. Brown thus will target a potential return to action after the team's bye week, when Tennessee hosts Jacksonville on Sunday, Dec. 12.

Lazard (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Limited practice participation throughout the week leaves Lazard truly questionable ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. He hasn't done much this year, but his absence last week contributed to a big day for Marquez Valdez-Scantling, who posted a 4-123-1 receiving line with season highs for targets (10) and snap share (81 percent). Randall Cobb, meanwhile, caught only one pass for 15 yards on two targets, despite also hitting a season high for snap share (76 percent).

Brown (chest) wasn't spotted at the open portion of Friday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

If he officially has a DNP next to his name Friday, Brown likely will head into the weekend with at least a questionable tag for Sunday's game at New England. In a receiving corps that already is down Julio Jones (IR/hamstring) and Marcus Johnson (IR/hamstring), the Titans have just Chester Rogers, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Dez Fitzpatrick as healthy wide receivers on the active roster.

Humphries was a limited practice participate Friday due to a hip injury, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Humphries apparently picked up the injury while catching both his targets for 30 yards during last week's matchup with the Panthers. The 28-year-old should be able to avoid an injury designation for Monday's game versus Seattle if he can practice with no limitations Saturday.

Samuel (groin) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Samuel returned to practice as a limited participant last Friday and now has taken part in at least four sessions. That doesn't necessarily mean he'll play in Monday's game against Seattle, but coach Ron Rivera is at least leaving the door open for that possibility.

Davis (groin) will be a limited participant in practice Friday, but coach Robert Saleh expects the wide receiver to play Sunday in Houston, Andy Vasquez of NorthJersey.com reports.

Davis was limited Wednesday and didn't practice at all Thursday. The offseason addition has been the favorite target of rookie quarterback Zach Wilson, who has been named the team's starter Sunday after battling a knee injury. Davis has been targeted fewer than seven times only twice all season, and he should remain an integral part of New York's offense against a Houston team that has an identical 2-8 record.

Peoples-Jones (groin) will be listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Ravens, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

With Peoples-Jones having returned to a limited practice Thursday, he's now trending in the right direction in advance of the contest, though if there's any doubt about his recovery from a groin injury, the Browns could err on the side of caution, with their bye on tap Week 13. Once Peoples-Jones is ready to play, a key role alongside Jarvis Landry awaits him, with Odell Beckham now with Rams.

Lamb (concussion) will practice Sunday, with the Cowboys expecting him to return for Thursday's game at New Orleans in Week 13, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Lamb seems to have come close to clearing concussion protocol in time for Thursday's overtime loss to the Raiders, but he ultimately wasn't able to play four days after suffering the injury. While he's expected to avoid another absence, the situation still needs to be monitored given that recovery from concussions isn't always linear. It does, however, seem likely that both Lamb and Amari Cooper (reserve/COVID-19) will be back in the lineup Week 13.

Schwartz (concussion) won't play Sunday night against the Ravens, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

Schwartz, who also missed this past Sunday's game against the Lions, now will target a return to action following the Browns' bye week, when the team faces the Ravens again on Sunday, Dec. 12. With Schwartz out and Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) listed as questionable, Rashard Higgins and perhaps Ja'Marcus Bradley are candidates for added WR snaps this weekend.
