Kincaid (hamstring) won't practice Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Kincaid now has two more opportunities to make a practice appearance before the Bills assign injury designations ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. If he's limited or out this weekend, fellow TEs Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes would be in line to see added snaps/targets in Week 11.

Rodriguez (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Rodriguez was forced out of Washington's loss to the Lions in Week 10 early due to a shoulder injury, but he already appears back to full health as the Commanders prepare to face off against the Dolphins in Madrid on Sunday. Prior to departing versus Detroit, Rodriguez rushed six times for 16 yards and one touchdown. Barring any setbacks, expect Rodriguez to again split backfield opportunities with Jacory Croskey-Merritt versus Miami.

Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Harrison will miss Sunday's game against the 49ers after undergoing surgery to address appendicitis, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Gannon also indicated that Harrison could potentially remain sidelined longer than just Week 11, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. With Harrison sidelined and Zay Jones (Achilles) having recently been placed on IR due to a season-ending injury, Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch and Xavier Weaver (ankle) are the remaining available options at wide receiver on Arizona's active roster. Expect the team to elevate at least one ofAndre Baccellia, Jalen Brooks and Tejhaun Palmer from the practice squad for Sunday's matchup against San Francisco.

Godwin (fibula) is not participating in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Godwin is expected to remain sidelined versus Buffalo on Sunday, which would mark his fifth consecutive missed game due to a fibula injury. He hasn't practiced in any capacity in that span. Emeka Egbuka, Tez Johnson and Sterling Shepard will continue to operate as Tampa Bay's top three wideouts if Godwin is indeed ruled out, with Mike Evans (collarbone) also out for the foreseeable future. On a positive note for the Buccaneers, RB Bucky Irving (shoulder/foot) returned to practice Wednesday, though he's also expected to miss Week 11.

Irving (shoulder/foot) is participating in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Irving has not played since Week 4, so though he's still reportedly expected to sit out Sunday on the road against Buffalo, it's encouraging to see the second-year pro finally back on the practice field, even for a walkthrough session. Head coach Todd Bowles indicated Monday that Irving's shoulder injury is currently holding him back more than his foot issue, so it will be notable to see whether he's still listed with both injuries on Wednesday's practice report. Rachaad White and Sean Tucker will lead Tampa Bay's backfield versus Buffalo if Irving is indeed unable to suit up Week 11.

The Jaguars announced Wednesday that Strange (quadriceps) has been designated for a return to practice from IR.

Strange's practice window is opening at the earliest eligible date, as he's already missed four games since having been placed on IR due to a quadriceps injury and had the benefit of Jacksonville's bye in Week 8 to further rest. The top tight end could return to action as early as Sunday versus the Chargers, though in order to do so Strange could likely have to log full practice activity right off the bat. Top WR Brian Thomas (ankle) and No. 2 tight end Hunter Long (hip) were both unavailable Week 10 versus Houston.

The Steelers activated Howard (hand) from IR to the 53-man roster on Wednesday.

Howard began the regular season on IR due to a fractured hand suffered during training camp, and after having had his 21-day practice window opened Oct. 22, the rookie sixth-round pick is now ready for game action. He could contribute as the Steelers' emergency No. 3 quarterback behind Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph versus the Bengals on Sunday.

Wilson has lost his grasp on the No. 2 quarterback role to Jameis Winston, who is likely to start Sunday's game against the Packers with Jaxson Dart in the concussion protocol, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka's first major move is the demotion of Wilson, who opened the regular season as New York's starter but was benched in favor of Dart after three games. The 31-year-old veteran played the entire fourth quarter of New York's loss to the Bears in Week 10 after Dart's injury, in which span he orchestrated only one field-goal drive while Chicago scored two unanswered TDs to take the lead. Jordan Raanan of ESPN reports that Dart is expected to miss Week 11 while working his way through the concussion protocol, setting the stage for Winston to take his first offensive snaps of the season.

Wilson rushed once for two yards and caught his lone target for two yards in Monday's 10-7 loss to the Eagles.

Wilson continued to operate as the Packers' primary backup running back, playing just 14 of Green Bay's 68 offensive snaps in the contest. Starter Josh Jacobs played 50 snaps and handled 26 touches as the preferred backfield option against Philadelphia. Going forward, Wilson should be considered nothing more than an insurance policy in the event Jacobs misses time with an injury down the stretch. The Packers are set to visit the Giants in Week 11.

Brooks failed to record a single rushing attempt or target in Monday's 10-7 loss to the Eagles.

Brooks was a complete nonfactor Monday night, playing just six of the Packers' 68 offensive snaps in the contest. The third-year running back has not handled a single carry for the past for games and is averaging a 12 percent offensive snap share this season. Brooks remains far off the fantasy radar based on his limited usage as the No. 3 running back behind starter Josh Jacobs and backup Emanuel Wilson. Next up for the Packers is a Week 11 matchup with the Giants.
