McKenzie (hamstring) will be ready for Sunday's game versus the Dolphins, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

McKenzie upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice, so he's ready to rock in Week 2. The 25-year-old wideout reeled in all three targets for 17 yards in Week 1, but he played just 16 offensive snaps, so his upside is capped at this time.

Pittman had an "incident" with his toe in Thursday's practice, and the Colts will use the remaining time before Sunday's game against Minnesota to evaluate his status, per coach Frank Reich, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

It sounds like Pittman will be a game-time decision after injuring his toe in practice Thursday. With Zach Pascal (ankle) practicing on a limited basis Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice entirely, the Colts are banged up at wide receiver behind top two options T.Y. Hilton and Parris Campbell. Should one or both of Pittman or Pascal sit out Sunday, special teams contributor Ashton Dulin could get a chance to play some offense.

Parker (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bills, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Coach Brian Flores said earlier Friday that Parker will be a game-time decision after having been limited in practice all week, per Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com. It looks as though Parker has a fair shot to face the Bills, but a final decision on his status for Week 2 likely won't come until Sunday morning. No matter what, it's encouraging to see Parker making a strong push to retake the field after he aggravated his hamstring injury against the Patriots in Week 1.

Coach Mike Vrabel relayed Friday that Brown (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

A bone bruise in his knee is the reason Brown will sit out Week 2 action, and possibly more. In his absence, Corey Davis (hamstring) -- health permitting -- and Adam Humphries will head the team's wide receiver corps Sunday, with Kalif Raymond and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine also in the mix for snaps.

Brown (knee) wasn't spotted during the early portion of Friday's practice, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

A bone bruise in his knee has Brown looking iffy for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, and he could be ruled out for Week 2 action as soon as Friday afternoon. If he's inactive or limited this weekend, added targets would be available for both Corey Davis (hamstring) and Adam Humphries, with Kalif Raymond and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine also in the mix.

Crowder (hamstring) is not expected to land on IR, per coach Adam Gase, who is cautiously optimistic that the receiver isn't dealing with a long-term injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Take this news with a grain of salt, as we're talking about the same Gase who put star running back Le'Veon Bell back into the second half of a Week 1 contest in which Bell hurt his hamstring in the first half. Now Bell is on IR, but it looks for the moment like Crowder won't suffer the same fate. Still, the team's leading receiver has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Perriman is expected to play a more prominent role Sunday against the 49ers, as Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports that slot receiver Jamison Crowder (hamstring) will be inactive.

Perriman's stock was already on the rise this week thanks to the prospect of facing San Francisco's injury-riddled secondary after being blanketed by elite Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White in his Jets debut. Now that Crowder -- who saw 13 targets to Perriman's five Week 1 -- is out of the mix, look for quarterback Sam Darnold to look Perriman's way early and often.

Coach Brian Flores said Friday that Parker (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bills, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

The final call on Parker's availability likely won't be made until Sunday morning. The 27-year-old put together a trio of limited practice sessions this week after aggravating his hamstring injury during Miami's season-opening loss to the Patriots. It looks like Parker has a fair chance to suit up Week 2, though he could end up seeing a snap count even if he's on the field, in which case Preston Williams and Mike Gesicki would be candidates to handle increased target shares against Buffalo.

Coach Bruce Arians said Friday that Godwin (concussion) is "still doubtful" for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

It remains to be seen if Godwin will get the corresponding designation on the final injury report, or if he'll instead be listed as 'questionable' or 'out'. He was present at the team facility Friday morning, undergoing testing to evaluate his concussion symptoms.

Cooper (foot) went through Friday's walkthrough and coach Mike McCarthy doesn't anticipate any setbacks heading into Sunday's game versus Atlanta, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Cooper was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant due to the foot issue, but it doesn't appear to be a serious concern. The 26-year-old could still carry an injury designation into the weekend, but barring a setback he should be able to play Week 2.
