Moore left Thursday's practice early after he was slow to get up at the end of a play, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Even if it isn't serious, the timing of the injury could prevent Moore from playing in Saturday's preseason game against Baltimore. The Panthers already figure to be missing fellow wideout Robby Anderson, who has been out from practice with a minor hamstring injury. Bill Voth of the Panthers' official site reports that Moore took a hard fall on his right side while diving for a pass in red-zone drills Thursday morning.

Diggs (knee) could return to practice soon but won't play in Saturday's preseason game against Chicago, Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic reports.

Diggs wouldn't be playing in the game even if he was healthy, as the Bills are holding out QB Josh Allen and some other key veteran starters. There hasn't been any indication Diggs' knee injury is serious, though he's now been absent from practice for about a week and a half.

Anderson (hamstring) isn't practicing Thursday, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Anderson hasn't practiced this week after hurting his hamstring last Friday. He did watch Wednesday's practice from the sideline, and he's riding an exercise bike on the side Thursday morning. His issue doesn't appear serious, but the wideout still figures to miss Saturday's preseason game against Baltimore.

Jones (undisclosed) cleared waivers and reverted to Jacksonville's injured reserve Wednesday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

Jones was waived with an injury designation Tuesday and passed through the waiver wire unclaimed. The rookie originally signed with Jacksonville in May after going undrafted.

Imatorbhebhe (undisclosed) cleared waivers and reverted to Jacksonville's injured reserve Wednesday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

Imatorbhebhe suffered an injury early in training camp and was eventually waived/injured by the Jags on Tuesday. The rookie UDFA out of Illinois will need to reach an injury settlement to have a chance of taking the field this season.

Schwartz (hamstring) returned to practice Tuesday, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Having already missed the majority of training camp, Schwartz will likely be eased back into the mix as he bounces back from a hamstring injury. It's not clear if the rookie will make his preseason debut Sunday against the Giants.

Baker operated with the starting offense during Wednesday's practice, John Hendrix of Sports Illustrated reports.

Baker apparently lined up opposite Marquez Callaway when the offense first took the field. Those two then rotated reps with Tre'Quan Smith, Deonte Harris, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Chris Hogan. While it may be hard to predict how the pecking order at receiver will shake out with Michael Thomas (ankle) sidelined, Baker at least seems to be making a strong case for a roster spot ahead of the regular season.

Raymond has consistently been one of the first four receivers to take rep with the first-team offense during training camp practices, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

With Tyrell Williams, Breshad Perriman and Amon-Ra St. Brown seemingly locked in as Detroit's top three receivers, Raymond appears to have moved ahead of Quintez Cephus for the No. 4 job, though it should be noted that Cephus has missed significant time due to a head injury. While the fourth receiver in what looks like an underwhelming Lions offense probably won't be relevant in fantasy if everyone stays healthy, Williams is 30 and coming off shoulder surgery, while Perriman hasn't played a full season since 2016. Unless those veterans manage to stay healthy for the entire 17-game slate, opportunities could open up for Raymond to fill a starting role at outside receiver.

Coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that Skowronek (forearm) will miss four to six weeks after undergoing surgery, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Skowronek suffered a fractured forearm during last weekend's preseason loss to the Chargers, and, as a result, he will now miss the remainder of the preseason and likely at least a few regular-season contests. The Rams could opt to place Skowronek on IR to free up a roster spot, though that transaction would bring an end to his rookie season unless it's carried out after Sept. 1.

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said Tuesday that he's pleased with Reagor's progress at training camp, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. "I really like the development that's happened," Sirianni said. "His 1-on-1s, now, were special, and he was starting to use some techniques that we want him to see because we all know that he has phenomenal athleticism."

Reagor missed the first few days of camp after a failed conditioning test and a minor lower-body injury, but he's reportedly improved throughout August, with his performance Tuesday drawing universal praise from Philadelphia beat writers and coaches. The 2020 first-round pick also caught two of three targets for 20 yards in the preseason opener, and he should see more playing time in the Eagles' second preseason contest Thursday against the Patriots.
