Lavonte David LB | TB
Buccaneers' Lavonte David: Still nursing knee injury
David (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
David has managed lower-body injuries since training camp, though he's played in each of the first five games of the regular season and has logged 34 tackles (17 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and two pass defenses (one interception). David should be cleared to play against the 49ers on Sunday unless he suffers a setback in the coming days.

49ers' Malik Mustapha: Logs full session
Mustapha (knee) practiced fully Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Mustpaha is recovering from a torn ACL and had his practice window opened Monday. He has three weeks to be activated from injured reserve, so while his full practice participation is a positive sign, it's not indicative that Mustapha will be ready for his season debut in Week 6 against Tampa Bay.

Rasheed Walker OT | CAR
Packers' Rasheed Walker: Limited in Wednesday's practice
Walker (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Green Bay's practice Wednesday.
Walker managed to play through his injury in the team's Week 4 tie versus Dallas and will look to do the same in Sunday's matchup against the Bengals. However, if he ends up being unable to suit up, the Packers could be shorthanded along the offensive line as Zach Tom (oblique), Anthony Belton (ankle) and Aaron Banks (groin) are all dealing with injuries.

Jordan Watkins WR | SF
49ers' Jordan Watkins: Still sidelined
Watkins (calf) did not practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Watkins has dealt with ankle and calf injuries, and has been sidelined for his entire rookie season to this point. His inability to practice doesn't bode well for his chances to be active in Week 6 against the Buccaneers, though he has a few days to change his outlook.

Kevin Givens DT | SF
49ers' Kevin Givens: Practice window opened
The 49ers designated Givens (pectoral) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Givens suffered a pectoral injury in early August during training camp, which was severe enough for him to open the 2025 regular season on injured reserve. He's progressed enough in his recovery for the 49ers to open his 21-day practice window, and the seventh-year defensive tackle was a limited participant in Wednesday's session, per Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. Even with his return to practice, Givens is far from a guarantee to play against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Eric Stokes CB | LV
Raiders' Eric Stokes: Still dealing with knee issue
Stokes (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Stokes was unable to suit up in Week 5 at Indianapolis due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 4 versus the Bears, and now his status is again uncertain for Week 6. He'll likely need to practice in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Progressing through knee injury
Wilson (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Wilson was signed off the Saints' practice squad to the Dolphins' active roster Sept. 30, but he was unable to make his debut with his new team against the Panthers in Week 5 due to a knee injury. His ability to practice in at least a limited capacity indicates that he is progressing in his recovery, and his participation over the next two days will indicate his chances of playing against the Chargers on Sunday.

Tyrel Dodson LB | CAR
Dolphins' Tyrel Dodson: Sidelined to begin week
Dodson (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Dodson suffered a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Panthers, so it's not a significant surprise that he wasn't available to practice Wednesday. He'll need to clear the league's protocol to be eligible to play in Week 6 against the Chargers.

Zach Bako-Bewele G | GB
Packers' Zach Tom: Limited participant in practice
Tom (oblique) was a limited participant in Green Bay's practice Wednesday.
Tom sat out the team's Week 4 tie with the Cowboys but is now closer to making his return. While the 26-year-old seems to be trending in the right direction, if he ends up being unable to play in Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Darian Kinnard would likely start at right tackle in his place.

Darius Robinson DL | ARI
Cardinals' Darius Robinson: Still not practicing
Robinson (pectoral) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Robinson was sidelined in Week 5 versus the Titans due to a pectoral injury he suffered in Week 4 versus the Seahawks, and he's still sitting out to begin Arizona's new week of practice. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have any shot to play Sunday at Indianapolis.
