Moore (thumb) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Moore missed Sunday's win over the Bengals due to a thumb issue initially sustained Week 9 against New England. He logged a trio of limited practices last week, so Wednesday's session doesn't represent any tangible progress. Moore serves a depth role in Baltimore's aerial attack.

Thielen (hamstring) was held out of practice Wednesday.

Thielen stretched before the session and was spotted doing resistance training on the side, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Having said that, the activity wasn't enough for Thielen to attain an "LP" next to his name on the injury report. Deemed "week-to-week" by coach Mike Zimmer, Thielen doesn't have a precise timetable for a return to the practice field and therefore game action.

Olszewski (ankle) was absent from the injury report Wednesday.

Olszewski missed the Week 9's loss to the Ravens, but he leveraged the bye week to get healthy. The rookie wideout will suit up for Sunday's game against the Ravens, but he's not expected to have a major role on offense, especially with rookie first-round pick N'Keal Harry in line for his NFL debut.

Harris (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Harris is a new name on the injury report, as he's suited up all nine games so far. The undrafted rookie rarely takes the field on offense, but he's made quite an impact as a returner with 23.8 yards per kick return and 9.7 yards per punt return, ranking seventh and fifth in the league, respectively. Taysom Hill, Alvin Kamara and Ted Ginn could fill those duties if Harris is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Brown (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Brown popped up on the Ravens' Week 10 injury report Friday but was able to suit up Sunday against the Bengals, parlaying his 18 snaps on offense into four catches for 80 yards and a touchdown. At this stage, there's nothing to suggest that the speedy wideout is in any danger of missing Sunday's game against the Texans, but Brown could end up being limited at practice all week.

Anderson was limited at practice Wednesday due to back and shoulder injuries, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Anderson's status will be revisited Thursday to see whether he's able to graduate to full practice participation. The speedy wideout has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option of late and is coming off a dud in the Week 10 win over the Giants, during which he caught just one of his three targets for 11 yards, while logging 54 of a possible 65 offensive snaps.

Cooper (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Cooper handled his usual workload during Sunday's loss to the Vikings despite a lingering knee injury, so it's not much of a surprise that the Cowboys are opting to manage his practice reps to begin the week. The extent of Cooper's participation in practice will be worth monitoring as the week continues. Even a limited session would set him on the right track to suit up Week 11 versus Detroit.

Thielen (hamstring) wasn't taking part in the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Although Thielen stretched before the session, he didn't have a helmet once drills kicked off. Because coach Mike Zimmer considers Thielen "week-to-week," he can't be ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Broncos just yet. Ultimately, the Vikings may wait to make a decision on Thielen until game day, especially if he's able to take the practice field by week's end.

Coach Vic Fangio said Wednesday that Patrick (hand) is "likely" to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Patrick returned to practice Oct. 30 and now appears to be nearing the finish line in his recovery from left hand surgery. Before Patrick can be cleared to play Week 11, the Broncos will need to activate him from injured reserve and add him to 53-man roster by Saturday's deadline to do so. Once Patrick is in the fold for Denver, he'll compete for the No. 2 or No. 3 receiver spot behind Courtland Sutton.

Coach Zac Taylor said Wednesday that Erickson is considered day-to-day due to a back injury, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Taylor also said that Erickson won't participate in live drills Wednesday, putting the wideout on track for a non-participation listing on the Bengals' first practice report of Week 11. Erickson will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's tilt against the Raiders. With John Ross (shoulder) having been designated to return from injured reserve and A.J. Green (ankle) working toward a potential return, Erickson could end up taking a back seat in Cincinnati's aerial attack down the stretch.
