Cooper (quadriceps/ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Cooper will carry an injury designation into the weekend after turning in a limited practice Friday, which amounted to his only reps of the week. Despite his minimal activity since exiting the Week 6 loss to the Jets with a bruised quad, Cooper is expected to play Sunday if he experiences no further setbacks before the 8:20 p.m. EDT kickoff, per Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The same applies to fellow wideout Randall Cobb (back), who is also questionable after managing only one limited practice during the week.

Kirk (ankle) has shown improved cutting ability in practice, but he still isn't back to full strength and is headed for a game-time decision Sunday against the Giants, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

A limited practice participant the past two weeks, Kirk presumably will be listed as questionable on the final injury report. With David Johnson (ankle) also viewed as a game-time decision, Kyler Murray may have his work cut out for him, albeit against a porous Giants pass defense. The Cardinals used a rotation of wideouts behind Larry Fitzgerald and KeeSean Johnson in Week 6, with Trent Sherfield playing 52 percent of snaps while Pharoh Cooper (35 percent), Damiere Byrd (22 percent) and Andy Isabella (17 percent) all mixed in.

Gallup (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Gallup's reps in practice were capped Wednesday through Friday, but those limitations were likely just for maintenance-related reasons following his recent return from arthroscopic left knee surgery. The second-year wideout has played more than 85 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps in both of his first two games back from injury and will once again be in store for another sizable workload Sunday. With fellow wideouts Amari Cooper (ankle/quadriceps) and Randall Cobb (back) both questionable for the contest, Gallup could end up serving as quarterback Dak Prescott's top target.

Foster (groin) practiced fully for the third straight day Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Now that he's past the injury, the question remains whether he'll suit up for Sunday's game against Miami, as Duke Williams appears to have earned a spot on the active roster. Andre Roberts won't sit either due to his return skills, so it looks like the final spot might come down to Foster or Isaiah Mckenzie, unless the team decides to take the rare step of suiting up six receivers.

Grant (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Grant was a limited participant in practice all week. The speedy wideout missed Week 6 versus the Redskins, and he isn't a lock to suit up for Sunday's divisional tilt. If Grant were forced to miss any more time, Kenyan Drake would serve as Miami's top kick returner while Preston Williams would take back punts.

Valdes-Scantling (knee/ankle) hinted that he'll likely be a game-time decision Sunday against Oakland, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Valdes-Scantling noted that he's hopeful additional treatment will allow him to gain clearance for Sunday's game. The receiver's own assessment supports recent comments from coach Matt LaFleur, who ruled out Davante Adams (toe) but noted that the Packers still have two more days to evaluate Valdes-Scantling and Geronimo Allison (chest/concussion). None of the three was able to practice in any capacity this week, but it sounds like Valdes-Scantling and Allison at least have some shot to play. MVS mentioned that his ankle and knee injuries are equally troublesome, noting that he made it through Monday's loss to the Lions on adrenaline. The Packers will release their final Week 7 injury report later Friday.

Cooper (quadriceps) was encouraged after Friday's practice and expects to play Sunday night against the Eagles, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Cooper presumably was a limited participant and will likely carry a questionable designation on the final injury report. His optimism meshes with a report earlier Friday from Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, who was told by a source that the wide receiver is on track to play. Heading into a crucial NFC East matchup on the heels of three consecutive losses, the Cowboys will do everything possible to get Cooper on the field Sunday. That said, he may still be treated as a game-time decision ahead of the 8:20 p.m. EDT kickoff.

Campbell (abdomen) won't play Sunday against the Texans, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

Per George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin, the plan is for Campbell to return to practice next week. With the rookie sidelined Sunday for a second straight contest, Zach Pascal, Deon Cain and Chester Rogers will be in the mix for added snaps behind top wideout T.Y. Hilton.

Adams (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Speaking to the media after Friday's practice, coach Matt LaFleur acknowledged that Adams won't be able to play but did say the Packers still have 48 hours to evaluate Marquez Valdes-Scantling (knee/ankle) and Geronimo Allison (chest/concussion). It sounds like the other wide receivers could come down to game-time decisions before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. EST kickoff. Adams mentioned Thursday that his sprained toe is feeling much better, so he could be back in the mix as soon as Week 8 in Kansas City.

Shepard (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Arizona.

Despite managing limited participation earlier this week, Shepard won't make it back from his second concussion of the season in time to avoid a Week 7 absence. The Giants likely will deploy Golden Tate, Darius Slayton and Cody Latimer in three-wide sets, though Cody Core and Bennie Fowler could also get some snaps. On the plus side with regard to the team's offense, top back Saquon Barkley and tight end Evan Engram have been cleared to play.
