  • Ryan Flournoy WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Ryan Flournoy: Serves as No. 3 receiver in Week 11

    Flournoy played 54 of the Cowboys' 83 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 19 yards on three targets in Monday's 34-10 loss to the Texans.

    With Dallas making Jalen Brooks a healthy inactive for Week 11, Flournoy stepped in as the Cowboys' new No. 3 receiver and made his first NFL start alongside wideouts CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert. Even with quarterback Cooper Rush dropping back 60 times on the night while the Cowboys trailed by double digits for most of the contest, Flournoy was unable to carve out much volume in the passing game. The rookie sixth-round pick will be a candidate to see his snaps reduced once Brandin Cooks (knee) is deemed ready to return from injured reserve.

  • Seahawks' Laviska Shenault: Day-to-day with oblique injury

    Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday that Shenault (oblique) is considered day-to-day with an oblique injury and should be able to practice this week, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

    Shenault suffered the injury in the first quarter of the Seahawks' 20-17 win over the 49ers this past Sunday. The 2020 second-round pick wasn't able to practice Wednesday, but he'll have two more chances this week to participate ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Across 10 appearances this season, Shenault has recorded five catches for 36 yards on five targets and one yard on one carry while also bringing back 14 kickoffs for 449 yards and one touchdown.

  • Jacob Cowing WR | SF

    49ers' Jacob Cowing: Limited to open week

    Cowing (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Cowing was diagnosed with a concussion during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks after taking a hit to the head during a punt return. He'll have to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols in order to suit up against the Packers on Sunday.

  • Britain Covey WR | PHI

    Eagles' Britain Covey: Logs full practice in return

    Covey (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    The Eagles designated Covey to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he opened the week strong as a full participant for Philadelphia's first official practice. If he's able practice without limitations over the next two days, Covey could be activated off IR and be available for Sunday's game against the Rams. Over the first three games of the regular season, he logged seven catches on as many targets for 34 yards.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Smith (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Smith is dealing with a hamstring injury for a third straight week, but he was able to suit up for the previous two games, combining for six catches (on nine targets) for 43 yards in wins against the Cowboys and Commanders. As such, he likely isn't is danger of missing Sunday's contest at the Rams, but his status nonetheless will need to be monitored in the coming days to ensure he'll be ready to play this weekend.

  • Jordan Addison WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jordan Addison: Past cramping from Sunday

    Addison (leg) wasn't listed on the Vikings' initial Week 12 injury report posted Wednesday.

    Addison suffered from cramps in one of his legs during the fourth quarter this past Sunday at Tennessee, which forced him to miss the rest of the contest. He thus finished the Week 11 win with three catches (on eight targets) for 61 yards and one touchdown on a 60 percent snap share. With the issue now in the rear-view mirror, Addison is good to go ahead of Sunday's game at Chicago.

  • Brandin Cooks WR | BUF

    Cowboys' Brandin Cooks: Listed as limited Wednesday

    Cooks (knee) was listed as a limited participant for Wednesday's walk-through practice.

    Cooks resumed practicing one day after the Cowboys designated him to return from injured reserve. The wideout has a 21-day window in which he can practice without being activated to the roster, but head coach Mike McCarthy suggested Tuesday that Cooks could play as soon as Sunday against the Commanders. The 31-year-old didn't have much luck working with Dak Prescott (hamstring) earlier this season and isn't likely to do much for fantasy managers now that the Cowboys have backup Cooper Rush starting at quarterback.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Tending to pair of injuries

    Lamb was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice due to back and foot injuries.

    Lamb showed up as a limited participant due to a back issue on the Cowboys' final Week 11 practice report and was listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Texans. Ultimately, he was able to suit up and logged 66 of 83 offensive snaps (80 percent) on his way to a typical eight catches (on 12 targets) for 93 yards. The performance was a stark contrast to the 6-21-0 receiving line on 10 targets that Lamb posted in his first full outing with Cooper Rush under center for Dak Prescott (hamstring) in Week 10. Two days removed from the most recent contest, Lamb now is dealing with a new health concern in addition to the back issue, meaning his status will be one to watch as the week continues.

  • Allen Robinson WR | DET

    Lions' Allen Robinson: Listed as full practice participant

    Robinson (concussion) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

    Robinson played 10 snaps on offense and made one catch for seven yards in Sunday's 52-6 win over the Jaguars before leaving the game to be evaluated for a concussion. Fortunately, Robinson looks to have avoided being diagnosed with a concussion, given his estimated full participation to begin Week 12 prep. He should be ready to play this Sunday against the Colts.

  • Giants' Bryce Ford-Wheaton: Limited Wednesday

    Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Ford-Wheaton has been sidelined for each of the Giants' last two games, and Wednesday's limited session suggests that the team's Week 11 bye wasn't enough time for him to recover from his Achilles issue. The 24-year-old's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can return for the Giants' Week 12 matchup against the Buccaneers.
