Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | MIA
Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Progressing through knee injury
Wilson (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Wilson was signed off the Saints' practice squad to the Dolphins' active roster Sept. 30, but he was unable to make his debut with his new team against the Panthers in Week 5 due to a knee injury. His ability to practice in at least a limited capacity indicates that he is progressing in his recovery, and his participation over the next two days will indicate his chances of playing against the Chargers on Sunday.

Bryce Oliver WR | TEN
Titans' Bryce Oliver: Returns to practice
Oliver (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Oliver has missed three straight games with the knee injury and has not practiced in any capacity during his absence. His limited session Wednesday is thus a positive sign, though Oliver's status for a Week 6 matchup against Las Vegas is still unclear.

Derius Davis WR | LAC
Chargers' Derius Davis: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Davis (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
A knee injury has prevented Davis from playing in the Chargers' last two games, which has resulted in Tarheeb Still and KeAndre Lambert-Smith taking over as returners on punts and kickoffs. Davis would have to return to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days in order to have a chance at playing against the Dolphins on Sunday.

Zay Flowers WR | BAL
Ravens' Zay Flowers: Limited with shoulder injury
Flowers (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
It's a new injury for the Ravens' top wide receiver and his first time on the injury report this season. Starting the week limited isn't too much of a concern at the moment unless Flowers was injured in Wednesday's practice. If Flowers is unable to play Sunday against the Rams, Baltimore would roll out a wideout group of Rashod Bateman, DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace and Devontez Walker (oblique).

Van Jefferson WR | WAS
Titans' Van Jefferson: Dealing with ankle injury
Jefferson (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Jefferson played a season-low 12 offensive snaps (18 percent) in Tennessee's Week 6 win over Arizona, but that may have been caused by his ankle injury. He'll have two more chances to practice and clarify his status ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Raiders.

Dyami Brown WR | WAS
Jaguars' Dyami Brown: Estimated as limited in practice
Brown (shoulder) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate.
Brown, who has been managing a shoulder issue, logged a 66 percent snap share in Monday's 31-28 win over the Chiefs, en route to catching two of his four targets in the contest for 15 yards. With no reported setbacks since then, chances are the wideout's listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related.

Mike Evans WR | SF
Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Sitting out Wednesday
Evans (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Evans has yet to log official practice reps since sustaining a moderate left hamstring strain Week 3, but head coach Todd Bowles told Greg Auman of Fox Sports on Wednesday that the wide receiver is "coming along" in his recovery. Fellow wideout Chris Godwin (fibula) joined Evans on the sideline to begin Week 6 prep, meaning the health of two of the Buccaneers' top three options at the position are compromised at the moment. Evans has a pair of practices remaining this week to potentially prove the health of his hamstring ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Chris Godwin WR | TB
Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Dealing with injured fibula
Godwin (fibula) didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough.
The Buccaneers were without Godwin, fellow WR Mike Evans (hamstring) and No. 1 RB Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) to kick off Week 6 prep. Godwin has two games under his belt after recovering from the dislocated left ankle that he suffered Week 7 of last season, but his returns (6-52-0 on 14 targets) have been minimal. With a new injury in tow, his status bears watching as the week goes on to get a sense of his availability for Sunday's contest against the 49ers.
-
Quentin Johnston WR | LAC
Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Limited practice Wednesday
Johnston (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Johnston logged an 82 percent snap share in this past Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Commanders, catching all four of his targets for 40 yards and carrying once for nine yards. It's unclear whether the wideout -- who lost a fumble in the contest -- is dealing with an issue coming out of Week 5 action or if his hamstring injury occurred during Wednesday's practice. Look for added context in that regard to arrive no later than Thursday, when the Chargers' next practice report is posted.

Malachi Corley WR | CLE
Browns' Malachi Corley: Working through groin injury
Corley was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a groin injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Corley made his Browns debut during their Week 5 loss to the Vikings in London when he logged one carry for 11 yards while playing 12 snaps on offense. He may have picked up the groin injury during that contest, but he would avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Steelers with a full practice Thursday or Friday.
