Adams (oblique) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Seattle after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Rams coach Sean Mcvay said Friday morning that Adams is expected to play. The 32-year-old wideout made an early exit from last Sunday's 42-26 win over San Francisco, with McVay saying afterward that Adams likely would've returned if the score had been closer. Adams then missed practice Wednesday before returning as a limited participant Thursday and Friday. It doesn't sound like the Rams expect a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Highsmith (pectoral) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Highsmith was unable to participate in practice throughout the week due to the pectoral injury he sustained during the Week 10 matchup with the Chargers, though the outside linebacker didn't show many signs of injury after recording 2.0 sacks against Justin Herbert. With the 28-year-old unable to suit up, Nick Herbig is in line to gain an increased snap share similar to what he logged in Highsmith's absences in Week 3 and Week 4.

Holcomb (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Holcomb managed to practice in a limited fashion Thursday before ultimately reverting to a DNP in Friday's session, which led to the linebacker being ruled out for Sunday's game. The 29-year-old was unable to return to football shape this week and will have to look to the Steelers' Week 12 road matchup with the Bears to get back on the field. With Holcomb out, Malik Harrison or Payton Wilson will likely get the start at inside linebacker opposite Patrick Queen.

Slay (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Slay was unable to participate in practice all week due to a concussion he sustained in the Week 10 loss to the Chargers. In the cornerback's absence, James Pierre will likely once again see starting snaps.

Horton (groin/shin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at the Rams, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

Horton's absence for a second straight game theoretically leaves more playing time for veteran wideouts Rashid Shaheed and Cooper Kupp, though it's not yet clear how much the rookie will even be a factor once he returns to full health. Horton scored five touchdowns on 22 targets in the No. 3 receiver role for the first two months of this season. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that injured reserve is a consideration for Horton, per Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic.

Lewis (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

The starting slot cornerback was injured in the Jaguars' Week 9 victory over the Raiders and missed last Sunday's loss to the Texans. Lewis was ruled out after participating in no practices this week, and in his absence the slot will likely once again be covered by Jarrian Jones.

Dobbins (foot) remained sidelined at practice Friday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Dobbins hasn't practiced this week and is trending toward being ruled out later Friday, per Tomasson. If that ends up being the case, 2025 second-rounder RJ Harvey would be in line to lead Denver's backfield Sunday against the Chiefs, with Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin available to work in complementary roles.

Harrison (knee/ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Harrison didn't practice all week due to a knee and ankle injury and is now in line to miss his first game of the season. The 2023 first-rounder has served as the starting right tackle for the Jaguars, and in his absence Cole Van Lanen will likely be named the starter for Sunday's contest.

Schultz (shoulder/illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans after practicing without limitations Friday.

Schultz didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday but will be available Sunday after Friday's full session. He followed the same practice regimen Week 9 and performed well against the Broncos, catching six of eight passes for 77 yards. Schultz has at least five catches in six of his last seven games.

Gardeck (chest) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.

Gardeck was a limited participant in practice throughout the week, and being cleared of injury designation indicates he has moved pas his chest injury in time for Sunday's game. The starting outside linebacker has played in every game of the Jaguars' 2025 campaign, totaling 28 tackles (19 solo), one pass defensed and one forced fumble through 200 defensive snaps. The 31-year-old is also a special-teams contributor, having logged 164 special-teams snaps this season, and his continued presence on the field will benefit the Jaguars in multiple phases of the game.
