Cooper had a precautionary MRI on his right ankle Wednesday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning Newsreports.

Cooper doesn't appear to be dealing with a notable injury at this time, but the 25-year-old's ankle is bothering him to the point of requiring medical examination. His current injury is not related to the foot issue that bothered him during training camp, according to David Moore of The Dallas Morning News. Expect an update on Cooper's health after the Cowboys receive the results of his MRI.

Coach Bruce Arians said Godwin didn't practice Wednesday due to a hip injury, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Godwin played 96 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's 32-31 loss to the Giants, turning four targets into three catches for 40 yards. He also didn't reach the end zone for the first time in three contests to start the season. With a hip issue in tow, Godwin's practice reps will be something to watch as the week goes on.

Hill (collarbone) won't take part in practice Wednesday, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.

Hill appears to be progressing well in his recovery from his collarbone injury, but his continued absence from practice suggests he's not in line to suit up Sunday in Detroit. Initial projections called for the receiver to miss around 4-to-6 weeks after he suffered the sternoclavicular injury in the season opener, so a Week 4 absence wouldn't necessarily indicate that he's behind schedule in his recovery. Sammy Watkins, Demarcus Robinson and Mecole Hardman will continue to serve as Kansas City's top receivers as long as Hill remains sidelined.

Jones is wearing a non-contact jersey in practice Wednesday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

The Bills should elaborate on the situation after practice concludes, but Jones is likely dealing with an injury of some sort. Through the team's first three games, Jones has recorded five catches for 65 yards and no touchdowns.

Gallup (knee) won't practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Gallup underwent arthroscopic knee surgery just over a week ago and is progressing in his recovery, though not to the point where he's ready for on-field activity. While the Cowboys don't anticipate that a long-term absence or stint on injured reserve will be in the cards for Gallup, the wideout is looking unlikely for the Week 4 matchup with the Saints. Expect Randall Cobb to work as the No. 2 receiver behind Amari Cooper on Sunday.

Arcega-Whiteside is expected to return to a reserve role for Thursday's game against the Packers, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Alshon Jeffery (calf) is on track to return from a one-game absence, rejoining Nelson Agholor and Mack Hollins as the regular trio in three-receiver formations. Arcega-Whiteside failed to take advantage of regular playing time the past two weeks, catching two of seven targets for 14 yards.

Hollins is expected to work ahead of J.J. Arcega-Whiteside in Thursday's game against the Packers, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

While Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) were unavailable in Sunday's 27-24 loss to Detroit, Hollins and Arcega-Whiteside both had spots in three-wideout sets along with Nelson Agholor . Coach Doug Pederson suggested he'll move the rookie back to the No. 4 role with Jeffery expected back Thursday, giving Hollins at least one more week of regular snaps on offense.

Pringle caught his only target for a seven-yard gain during Sunday's 33-28 win over the Ravens.

Pringle caught his first career pass in the final minutes of the third quarter, helping set up a LeSean McCoy touchdown. Pringle just recently got called up to the active roster, and though it seems like every member of the Kansas City offense is a plug-and-play stud, he's still too far down the totem pole to warrant interest.

Boykin was targeted just once and was unable to make the catch during Sunday's 33-28 loss to the Chiefs.

Boykin's only target didn't come until the final drive of the game as the Ravens, though they ultimately managed to put up points, were nowhere near as efficient in the passing game as they were in Weeks 1 and 2. Boykin caught just two passes combined in those first two contests, so there's no real sense that he's a big part of this offense when it's firing on all cylinders. Though he's just three games into his career, Sunday's lack of production showed what happens when Baltimore is misfiring. Week 4 brings a visit from division rival Cleveland.

Jones caught two of his three targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 21-17 win over the Bengals.

Jones set up the game's first score late in the first quarter with a 23-yard catch-and-run on third down. He had another catch midway through the second quarter and was a nonfactor for the rest of the game. Jones has just five catches through three weeks, tied for third on the team -- but substantially behind the likes of John Brown (18 catches) and Cole Beasley (17 catches). Next up is a tough division showdown against the Patriots.
