  • D.J. Davidson DT | NYG

    Giants' D.J. Davidson: Good to go Thursday

    Davidson (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game at Dallas.

    Davidson was limited at practice during the week due to a shoulder issue, but it won't hold him out of game action in Week 13. He should resume his regular rotational role on the defensive line Thursday.

  • Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: No practice Wednesday

    Sanders (neck) isn't practicing Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Sanders endured a scary situation this past Sunday versus the Chiefs, when he was tackled low at the end of a 10-yard catch and run and landed on his neck. He was placed on a backboard before being carted off the field and taken to a Charlotte-area hospital, but he was discharged not long after the game. On Monday, head coach Dave Canales told Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer that Sanders avoided a serious injury, but the rookie right end won't take part in any drills to begin Week 13 prep. Sanders' listing on practice reports Thursday and Friday may be telling for his odds to play Sunday against the Buccaneers.

  • Evan Neal OT | NYG

    Giants' Evan Neal: Will play Thursday

    Neal (hip) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game at Dallas.

    Neal missed practice Monday and was limited at practice Tuesday and Wednesday due to a hip issue, but he'll be available for the Giants in Week 13 anyway. He figures to start at right tackle against the Cowboys.

  • Giants' Jermaine Eluemunor: Won't play against Cowboys

    Eluemunor (quadriceps) is out for Thursday's game at Dallas.

    Eluemunor was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers early due to a quad injury, and now he'll have to miss his first game of the season in Week 13 as he recovers. In his stead, Chris Hubbard projects to start at left tackle Thursday.

  • Commanders' Brian Robinson: Practicing Wednesday

    Robinson (ankle) took part in Wednesday's practice, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    The Commanders lost their top two running backs to injury this past Sunday against the Cowboys. First, Robinson was deemed questionable to return on two occasions due to an ankle injury and was contained to 12 snaps and six touches. And in the final minutes, Austin Ekeler took a big hit on a kickoff return and was diagnosed with a concussion. Ekeler isn't practicing Wednesday as he makes his way through the five-step concussion protocol, but Robinson's ability to handle at least some drills bodes well for his status for this Sunday's game versus the Titans. Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez are the healthy backs on Washington's active roster.

  • Armon Watts DT | NYG

    Giants' Armon Watts: Won't play at Dallas

    Watts (shoulder) is out for Thursday's game against the Cowboys.

    Watts was held out of practice during the week with a shoulder issue, and now he'll have to sit out Thursday. His absence could open up additional playing time for 2023 seventh-rounder Jordon Riley.

  • Elijah Hicks SAF | CHI

    Bears' Elijah Hicks: Won't play at Detroit

    Hicks is out for Thursday's game against the Lions.

    Hicks will miss his second straight contest in Week 13 as he continues to work through an ankle injury he suffered in Week 11 versus the Packers. In his stead, Jonathan Owens projects to start at safety again Thursday.

  • Chidobe Awuzie CB | TEN

    Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: Cleared to resume practicing

    Tennessee designated Awuzie (groin) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Awuzie has spent the last eight games on the sidelines due to a groin injury he suffered in Week 3 versus the Packers, but it now looks like he could be close to suiting back up. Tennessee has a 21-day window during which it can officially activate him before it would have to put him back on the shelf for the rest of the season.

  • Nick Scott SAF | CAR

    Panthers' Nick Scott: Gets clearance to practice again

    Carolina designated Scott (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Scott has spent Carolina's last four games on injured reserve due to a lingering hamstring issue, but it now appears he could be on track to return soon. The Panthers will have 21 days to officially activate him before they'd be required to place him back on injured reserve for the rest of the season.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Still in concussion protocol

    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that Tillman remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Tillman suffered a concussion in last Thursday's win over the Steelers, but with the wideout still in the protocol, his status will need to be monitored as Monday's game against the Broncos approaches. More information on where Tillman stands in his recovery will come Thursday, when the Browns post their initial Week 13 injury report. If Tillman isn't cleared to play in Denver, Jamari Thrash and practice squad member Kadarius Toney would be candidate to pick up added snaps behind starting wideouts Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
