McLaurin (ankle) is active for Thursday's game at Dallas, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

McLaurin progressed from non-participant Monday to full activity Wednesday, but Washington still attached a 'questionable' tag to his name for this Week 12 divisional matchup. With his status clarified, he'll take on a Cowboys defense that has given up the most touchdowns (20) and fifth-most yards per target (9.2) to wide receivers this season.

Shepard (hip/toe) was limited at Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Despite having his practice reps capped in both sessions this week, Shepard is slated to play through his hip and toe issues in Sunday's game at Cincinnati. The best indication that'll come to fruition is for Shepard to avoid a designation on Friday's injury report.

Grant (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Grant wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, meaning that he may have been nicked up during Thursday's session. What Grant is able to do at practice Friday should add some clarity regarding his availability for the Dolphins' Week 12 matchup against the Jets.

Jeudy (ankle/Achilles) didn't practice Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Previous reports suggested that Jeudy is tending to a foot issue, but regardless of what's keeping him off the field Thursday, what the wideout is able to do at practice Friday will be pivotal with regard to his status for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Adams (ankle) took part in Thursday's team stretch but didn't join his teammates outside for practice, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Prior to the session, coach Matt LaFleur told Reiner that "we're gonna be cautious" with his lingering ankle issue. As such, Adams could be listed as limited for a second practice in a row this week, but his activity level won't be official until the release of Thursday's injury report.

Ridley (foot) was listed as limited on Thursday's estimated injury report, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Ridley's practice reps continue to be capped as he attempts to get over a mid-foot sprain, which sidelined him Week 9. He proceeded to suit up this past Sunday in New Orleans, hauling in five of nine passes for 90 yards in the process. Friday's injury report may clear up his availability for a Week 12 matchup with the Raiders.

Jeudy may not practice Thursday due to a foot issue that's bothering him, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

The report notes that Jeudy, who logged a limited practice Wednesday due to a listed combo of ankle and Achilles injuries, will try to give it a go Thursday, but if he does sit the session out, what he does at practice Friday will gain added import in advance of Sunday's game against the Saints.

Coulter is inactive for Thursday's game against the Lions, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

Despite Kenny Stills (quad) being out and Randall Cobb (toe) having landed on IR, Coulter will sit this one out. As a result, Steven Mitchell will provide the Texans with wide receiver depth Thursday behind Will Fuller, Brandin Cooks and Keke Coutee.

McLaurin (ankle) is expected to play Thursday against the Cowboys, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

McLaurin was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate and it appears as though he'll give it a go Thursday. Official confirmation of his Week 12 status will arrive upon the release of Washington's inactives prior to the team's 4:30 ET kickoff.

Coulter moves up the depth chart for Thursday's game against the Lions, as both Randall Cobb (toe) and Kenny Stills (quadriceps) have been ruled out.

Coulter, a 2020 fifth-round pick out of Rhode Island, is the fourth receiver on the depth chart as the Texans prepare for the Thanksgiving Day matchup in Detroit. He could see his first NFL action. Coulter opened the season on injured reserve and was activated ahead of Week 9, but he's been inactive for the three games since joining the active roster. Will Fuller, Brandin Cooks and Keke Coutee will top the wideout depth chart Thursday, leaving Coulter as the primary fill-in.
