Bobby Wagner MLB | WAS
Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Logs another DNP
Wagner (knee) did not practice Thursday.
It's the second straight DNP to begin Week 14 prep for Wagner, so there's some concern about his ability to suit up Sunday against Minnesota. Still, Wagner could improve his outlook for that contest considerably if he's able to return to practice Friday. Wagner has played every defensive snap in all but one of Washington's games to date and has the fourth-most total tackles in the NFL, so it would be a big blow to the Commanders' defense if he ends up having to sit out against the Vikings.

Packers' Quay Walker: Full practice Thursday

Ty Okada SAF | SEA
Seahawks' Ty Okada: Full participant Thursday
Okada (oblique) was a full participant in practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The starting free safety played through the injury in Week 13 against the Vikings and stayed on the field for 96 percent of Seattle's defensive snaps, so his limited participation Wednesday was likely precautionary. Okada looks on track to play Sunday against Atlanta. He has 49 tackles (32 solo), including 1.5 sacks, five pass breakups, including one interception, and a fumble recovery on the year.
