Reed (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Reed has been sidelined since Week 5 with the hamstring injury and remains on injured reserve. He managed a limited practice Wednesday, which still leaves his status for a Week 11 showdown with the Eagles on Sunday night in question.

Winfield (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.

Winfield may have picked up the injury during the Bucs' Week 10 loss to the Patriots, when he logged one tackle and one pass defense while playing every single defensive snap. He'll have two more opportunities to practice in full and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's road game against the Bills.

Surtain (pectoral) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Surtain has been sidelined for Denver's last two games because of a pectoral strain he suffered in Week 8 versus the Cowboys, and now his status for Week 11 is in doubt. To give himself a realistic chance to play Sunday versus the Chiefs, he'll probably need to return to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday.

Adkins (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Adkins has sat out Denver's last two contests with a knee injury he suffered in Week 8 versus the Cowboys, and his availability for Week 11 is now in jeopardy. He'll likely have to practice to some extent Thursday or Friday to give himself a chance to suit up Sunday versus the Chiefs.

Nunez-Roches (toe) was estimated to be a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Nunez-Roches suffered the toe injury in Sunday's loss to the Bears. The Giants only held a walkthrough, so his status for Week 11 should become clearer as the week progresses.

Sherfield (toe) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Sherfield was on the field for a season-low 18 total snaps in Week 10 versus the Raiders, which would make sense if he hurt his toe during that contest. He'll probably need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a shot to play in Week 11 versus the Chiefs.

Oliver (knee) was a limited participant in Tennessee's practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Oliver has missed seven consecutive games with a knee injury but appears to be nearing his return. If the 25-year-old manages to suit up for Sunday's game versus Houston, he would likely resume his role as a depth receiver and kick returner.

Thibodeaux (shoulder) was estimated to have not practiced Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Thibodeaux played his typical allotment of snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bears, leaving it unclear when he suffered the injury. The Giants only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so Thibodeaux's status for Week 11 should become clearer in the next two days.

Turner (back) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

Turner may have picked up the injury during the Rams' Week 10 win over the 49ers. The injury prevented him from practicing Wednesday, but the third-year pro will have two more opportunities to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's NFC West tilt against the Seahawks. Turner has accumulated 21 tackles (nine solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one pass defense through nine regular-season games.

Denver designated Wallow (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Wallow has been out for Denver's last four games due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 6 against the Jets, but it now appears he could be moving toward returning to game action soon. From Wednesday, the Broncos have 21 days to officially activate Wallow before they'd be required to put him back on IR for the rest of the season.
