Bryant (neck/shoulder) had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday.

Bryant remains on injured reserve, where he was placed Nov. 15, but he can rejoin his teammates at practice. The Texans have 21 days to add Bryant back to the active roster, and such a move could occur prior to Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Bryant's participation level in practice will provide insight on how close he is to returning to game action.

London (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game at Tampa Bay, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

London thus will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to the sprained PCL in his left knee that he suffered Week 11. His next chance to suit up is Sunday, Dec. 21 at Arizona. With London out again, the Falcons' receiving corps will be paced by Darnell Mooney, David Sills, Dylan Drummond and Deven Thompkins, among others.

Ward (calf) won't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Ward continues to be bothered by the calf injury that forced his departure in the second half of this past Sunday's loss to the Titans. The starting cornerback has two more opportunities to practice before the Browns face the Bears on Sunday.

Graham (rib) won't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Graham played through this rib injury in the Week 14 loss to Tennessee after being sidelined at Friday's practice, and his 68 percent snap share was right in line with his season average of 71 percent. The starting defensive tackle has two opportunities left to resume practicing before Sunday's game against the Bears.

New York is expected to sign Gipson to the practice squad Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Gipson was cut by Philadelphia on Monday and had previously missed Week 14 due to a shoulder injury. He practiced in full prior to being waived by the Eagles, however, so the return man and depth wideout is healthy as he's now on track to join the Giants.

Delpit (illness) won't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Delpit still has ample time to recover before Sunday's game against the Bears, but his practice participation will bear monitoring the rest of the week. The starting strong safety has yet to miss a game in the 2025 regular season.

Ward (concussion) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.

Ward will miss the remainder of the regular season, but he will be eligible to return for the playoffs, should the Colts make it. He would need to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol to resume playing at that point. Ward finishes the 2025 regular season with 25 tackles (17 solo) and seven passes defensed in seven appearances.

Jackson (undisclosed) isn't practicing Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

As Hensley notes, this marks the fifth straight week that Jackson has missed at least one practice as he manages different injury issues. In the previous four weeks, the QB has gone on to start for the Ravens. The team's upcoming practice report will reveal whether Jackson is listed with an ankle injury, as he was in Week 14.

Cincinnati signed Johnson (hand) to the practice squad Wednesday.

Johnson spent the offseason with Houston but was placed on IR due to a broken hand and subsequently cut before the start of the regular season. Now full healthy, Johnson will work to carve out an emergency depth role at wide receiver with the Bengals.

The Commanders signed Edmonds from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.

Edmonds will provide depth in a Washington backfield that also includes Chris Rodriguez, Jeremy McNichols and Jacory Croskey-Merritt. He was previously elevated from the practice squad by the Commanders to play Week 11, a game against the Dolphins in which Edmonds did not play on offense but handled seven snaps on special teams.
