  • Terry McLaurin WR | WAS

    Commanders' Terry McLaurin: Slight production boost in loss

    McLaurin secured five of nine targets for 48 yards in the Commanders' 27-18 loss to the Packers on Thursday night.

    McLaurin finished third in receptions and second in receiving yards on the Commanders for the night, while also setting the pace in targets. As a whole, his collection of numbers certainly represented a nice boost from his 2-27-0 line on four targets Week 1 against the Giants, but through two games, the Commanders' passing game has been relatively conservative. McLaurin and Jayden Daniels will have some extra time to reestablish chemistry ahead of a Week 3 home matchup against the Raiders on Sunday, Sept. 21.

  • Noah Brown WR | WAS

    Commanders' Noah Brown: Quickly ruled out

    Brown was ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Packers due to a groin injury.

    Brown departed Thursday's game with a groin issue in the third quarter but was ruled out quickly. The severity of the issue is unclear, though he will have a few extra days to recover ahead of Washington's Week 3 matchup against the Raiders.

  • Noah Brown WR | WAS

    Commanders' Noah Brown: Suffers groin injury

    Brown is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Packers due to a groin injury, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports.

    Brown seems to have suffered the injury in the third quarter, though the exact cause and nature of the injury are unclear. He had one catch for nine yards prior to his departure.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Ruled out against Commanders

    Reed (shoulder) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Commanders.

    Reed exited the contest early in the first quarter after landing hard on his shoulder on a touchdown catch that was nullified by a penalty. There's no additional word on the severity of his injury, but he presumably will undergo imaging with updates to come either later Thursday or Friday. Reed was spotted with a sling on his right shoulder on the sideline in the second half, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Suffers shoulder injury

    Reed is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Commanders after suffering a shoulder injury in the first quarter, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official sitereports.

    Reed made a catch in the corner of the end zone on Green Bay's first possession, but the score was nullified by a penalty. To make matters worse, he immediately grabbed his shoulder and was slow to get up. Reed was spotted walking into the locker room with trainers, clearly favoring his shoulder area.

  • 49ers' Jordan Watkins: Limited in Thursday's practice

    Watkins (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Watkins opened the week with back-to-back limited practices due to an ankle injury that prevented him from playing against the Seahawks in Week 1. The rookie fourth-rounder would avoid an injury tag heading into Sunday's contest against the Saints if he were to practice without limitations Friday. Watkins' availability would be crucial for the 49ers if Jauan Jennings (shoulder) is not cleared to play Week 2.

  • Dareke Young WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Dareke Young: Past hamstring injury

    Young (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Young appears to be past a hamstring injury that prevented from playing against the 49ers in Week 1 and is on track to play against the Steelers on Sunday. He should see most of his playing time on special teams, including as a kick returner alongside George Holani.

  • Jake Bobo WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Escapes injury report

    Bobo was removed from Thursday's injury report, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Bobo missed Week 1 due to a concussion but practiced in full Wednesday before being removed from the injury report entirely Thursday. That indicates that he's cleared the league's concussion protocol and will be ready to suit up in Week 2 against the Steelers.

  • 49ers' Jauan Jennings: Officially no practice Thursday

    Jennings (shoulder) officially didn't practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Jennings hasn't been able to take part in drills this week following his early departure from this past Sunday's victory in Seattle due to a shoulder injury. However, he was spotted working on the side with a 49ers trainer Thursday, per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News, indicating he at least is keeping somewhat active. In the end, Friday's practice report will reveal whether Jennings has a chance to suit up Sunday at New Orleans. If he's able to play this weekend, he'll be working with backup QB Mac Jones with Brock Purdy (toe/shoulder) set to miss multiple weeks.

  • Christian Kirk WR | HOU

    Texans' Christian Kirk: Still not practicing

    Kirk (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday.

    Per Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle, coach DeMeco Ryans noted that both Kirk and Braxton Berrios -- who missed the Texans' season opener with respective hamstring injuries -- are "doing well on their recovery" and that the team will "see how they go this week" ahead of Monday night's game against the Buccaneers. If Kirk remains sidelined Week 2, Xavier Hutchinson, Justin Watson and Jaylin Noel would be candidates to absorb slot reps alongside fellow WRs Nico Collins and Jayden Higgins.
