Diggs (illness) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Despite Diggs having missed his second straight practice, coach Mike Zimmer indicated that he isn't concerned about the wideout's availability for Saturday''s divisional playoff game versus the 49ers. Diggs' status will be revisited again Thursday during the Vikings' final practice of the week. If he's able to put in a full workout, Diggs will have a good chance at avoiding a designation heading into the weekend.

Diggs (illness) wasn't spotted at the portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Diggs sat out Tuesday's walk-through practice due to the illness and looks poised to go down as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report. He'll have one more opportunity to return to practice Thursday before the Vikings determine whether he'll carry a designation into Saturday's divisional-round contest against the 49ers.

Coach Mike Vrabel said Wednesday that Raymond has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

Raymond looked to be on his way out of the protocol after practicing fully Tuesday, and the fact that he's now received clearance from an independent neurologist puts him in line to play in Saturday's divisional-round matchup with Baltimore. The 25-year-old, who had missed the Titans' previous two contests, will likely serve as the team's kickoff returner in addition to providing depth at receiver.

Chesson (undisclosed) had his practice squad contract with the Redskins expire Monday, freelance NFL writer Howard Balzer reports.

Chesson joined Washington's practice squad in early September but landed on the injured list with the undisclosed injury in October. The 26-year-old appeared in 12 games apiece with Kansas City and Washington his first two seasons, but he never saw the field in 2019.

Scott's (undisclosed) practice-squad contract with the Chargers expired Monday, freelance NFL writer Howard Balzer reports.

Scott spent time on the Chargers' practice-squad injured list this year, and he never got promoted to the active roster. Since entering the league in 2017, Scott has yet to play an NFL snap.

Raymond (concussion) was a full practice participant Tuesday.

The 25-year-old missed Week 17 and the Titans' playoff opener due to the concussion, but he's nearing his return to action. According to Turron Davenport of ESPN.com, coach Mike Vrabel said Raymond has yet to fully clear the concussion protocol, though he's apparently in the final stages.

Diggs wasn't in attendance for Tuesday's walk-through practice due to an illness, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

After defeating the Saints in overtime Sunday, the Vikings are holding only a light workout to begin the week, as the team faces a quick turnaround for Saturday's divisional-round matchup with the 49ers. So long as Diggs returns to practice in some fashion Wednesday and/or Thursday, he'll likely enter the game without an injury designation.

Dulin caught two passes for 17 yards over 13 games in 2019.

Dulin played just 99 offensive snaps over the course of the season, and much of his workload was a result of multiple injuries to the Colts' receiver corps. The undrafted rookie also worked as a kick returner in the season finale, and he mustered up 90 yards on three returns. Dulin is under contract for 2020 at a cap hit of $585,000.

Humphries (ankle) wasn't on the field Tuesday for the Titans' practice session, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

Considering Humphries hasn't played since Dec. 1, his absence from practice to begin the week doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up in Saturday's divisional-round playoff game versus the Ravens. Tajae Sharpe has essentially filled Humphries' role as the Titans' No. 3 receiver over the past five weeks, notching 13 receptions for 141 yards and two touchdowns on 17 targets during that stretch.

Cracraft signed a reserve/future contract with the Eagles on Monday.

Cracraft signed with Philadelphia's practice squad two weeks ago, and he made enough of an impression to be brought along as the Eagles gear up for the 2020 season. The 25-year-old receiver played six games with the Broncos over the past two seasons, and his main contributions came in the return game.
