Goodwin (personal) didn't practice Friday and isn't expected to play Sunday in Seattle, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Goodwin met with 49ers officials Thursday but still hasn't rejoined his teammates at practice. He'll presumably be held out for at least one more week while tending to the undisclosed personal matter.

Cobb (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

A limited participant at every practice this week, Cobb said Thursday that he plans to end his three-game streak of absences. It's probably still best to treat him as a game-time decision, considering he's missed six of the last eight games due to issues with his hamstring. The Packers are scheduled for a 1 p.m. EST kickoff, with Equanimeous St. Brown expected to handle a larger role if Cobb is ultimately unable to play.

Parker (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

Both Parker and running back Kenyan Drake were limited participants in practice all week and barred from contact work while nursing shoulder injuries, but Drake escaped a designation for Sunday while Parker didn't. Parker faced similar limitations last week before suiting up in the Dolphins' 27-24 loss to the Colts, so it's expected that he'll ultimately gain clearance to play again Sunday, per Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald. Regardless, official word on Parker's status should come approximately 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. EST kickoff, when the Dolphins release their inactive list. Even if less than fully healthy for the Week 13 contest, Parker could take on a heightened role out of necessity due to the battered state of the Miami receiving corps. Danny Amendola (knee) is listed as doubtful to play Sunday, while Jakeem Grant (Achilles) joined Albert Wilson (hip) on injured reserve earlier this week.

Godwin and Adam Humphries are expected to benefit the most from additional snaps and targets with DeSean Jackson (thumb) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Highly efficient up to this point in his career, Godwin now has a nice opportunity to play starter-level snaps against a shaky pass defense that has allowed 7.7 yards per attempt this season. The 2017 third-round pick owns career marks of 14.1 yards per catch and 9.5 per target, with one reception for every 11.5 snaps (78 on 898). For a frame of reference, teammate Mike Evans has caught one pass for every 10.6 snaps this season and one for every 11.1 snaps throughout his career. Godwin took advantage of a similar opportunity last December, catching 10 of 18 targets for 208 yards and a touchdown when Jackson missed the final two weeks of the 2017 campaign. The Bucs aren't sure if Jackson will miss additional time beyond Sunday.

Thielen (calf) isn't listed on the Vikings' final injury report for Sunday's game in New England, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

While there was never much concern about Thielen's availability, fellow wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) is listed as questionable after managing just one limited practice this week. A Diggs absence might push a few extra targets in Thielen's direction, but it would also allow the Patriots to shift their focus even more toward the middle of the field, where the 28-year-old does his best work. Either way, Thielen is safely established as a top-10 wideout play each and every week.

Diggs (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in New England, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

As expected, Diggs gets a questionable tag after returning to practice Friday in what appeared to be a limited capacity. He said he intends to play in the game despite missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, but it's probably best to treat him as a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. EST kickoff.

Chark (quadriceps) has been ruled out Sunday against the Colts.

With Chark sidelined for a second straight week, Dede Westbrook, Donte Moncrief and Keelan Cole are on track to head the Jaguars' receiving corps. With Cody Kessler set to replace the struggling Blake Bortles as the starting quarterback Sunday, none of the team's pass-catching options rank as high-percentage fantasy plays in Week 13.

Anderson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, Darryl Slater of NJ.com reports.

After missing practice Wednesday, Anderson was able to work in a limited fashion the subsequent two days, so he seemingly has a good shot at suiting up Sunday. If he does, it remains to be seen if Sam Darnold (foot) or Josh McCown (thumb/back) would be throwing Anderson passes. In any case, Anderson -- when healthy -- has the speed to be a dangerous deep threat, but his only big game this season was back in Week 5, when he logged three receptions for 123 yards and two touchdowns.

Diggs (knee) is present for practice Friday and wearing a helmet, but doesn't appear to be doing much work, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Despite missing practice the previous two days, Diggs said he expects to play Sunday in New England. He did some running Thursday and was then spotted going through individual drills Friday. It's possible he increases his activity level once the session is closed off to the media, but it nonetheless seems likely the wideout will be listed as questionable when the final injury report is released later Friday.

Coach Bill O'Brien relayed Friday that Coutee (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Browns, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Fortunately for those considering Coutee in Week 13 fantasy lineups, the Texans kick off at 1 p.m. EST. That said, with Coutee's hamstring an issue again, he wouldn't be the safest lineup play this weekend if he is cleared to go, especially with Demaryius Thomas easing into a bigger role in the Houston offense behind top wideout DeAndre Hopkins (foot).
