The Dolphins signed Washington to the practice squad Wednesday.

Washington was signed to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 15-10 loss to Minnesota. With De'Von Achane (knee) out for the remainder of the 2026 campaign, Washington could see more action with the Dolphins moving forward, though he likely won't have much of a role behind Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright.

Bateman (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

It's a new injury for Bateman, and the same can be said for Zay Flowers, who was limited with a foot injury Wednesday. With Lamar Jackson (ankle) set to miss Week 5 against the Falcons, Bateman is an uninspiring fantasy bet if he plays.

Dell (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Dell made his first practice appearance of the regular season, though he remains on injured reserve after his 21-day evaluation window was officially opened Wednesday. The Texans have been taking it easy with Dell as he works his way back from a severe multi-ligament left knee injury, which he sustained Dec. 21, 2024. Houston has plenty of opportunity for snaps and targets behind No. 1 receiver Nico Collins, but in order to stake his claim to a meaningful role once he's activated from IR at some point over the next three weeks, Dell will need to show in practices that he hasn't lost too much of his pre-injury speed and explosiveness.

Fletcher was cut from the Colts' practice squad Wednesday.

Fletcher hasn't been able to catch on with an NFL team since going undrafted in 2026. He could draw interest from other clubs around the league, though he has an uphill climb before earning a spot on a 53-man roster.

Head coach Mike LaFleur said Wednesday that Love's ankle injury shouldn't impact him during Week 5 prep, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

The Cardinals have yet to post Wednesday's injury report, but LaFleur previously told Dani Sureck of the team's official site on Monday that Love has a new ankle issue that's unrelated to the high-ankle sprain he tended to in August. LaFleur's most recent comments imply that Love may not have practice restrictions this week, or if he does he could be listed as "not-injury related, rest."

The Ravens listed Jackson (ankle) as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.

Head coach Jesse Minter was non-committal on Jackson's status for the Ravens' Week 5 matchup with the Falcons following practice, noting that "there'll be a point later in the week" where the team "figures out where he's at." Per Sam Cohn of The Baltimore Sun, Minter also noted Wednesday that Jackson could miss the majority of the practice week and still play Sunday, but at this point, the two-time MVP seems more likely than not to sit out in Atlanta while he manages a sprained left ankle. Tyler Huntley took the reps with the first-team offense during Wednesday's practice and would be in line to start if Jackson is sidelined this weekend.

Allen (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

After missing last Sunday's win over the Commanders, Allen's return to the practice field puts him on track to suit up Sunday against the Steelers. He should slot back into full-time duties alongside Josh Downs and Laquon Treadwell, with Ashton Dulin heading back to more of a special-teams role.

Flowers (foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Flowers has dealt with hamstring issues off and on since training camp, and now he has a new foot issue heading into Week 5. He was able to get some work in during Wednesday's session, but it didn't come during the media viewing period. The Ravens' outlook on offense is already tenuous, with Lamar Jackson's ankle injury preventing him from practicing Wednesday. Flowers still has time to ramp up to a full practice before the end of the week, however.

Fant (abdomen) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Fant missed Monday night's loss to the Falcons, but his limited start to the week would seem to give the veteran tight end a good shot to return to the field for Week 5 against the Vikings. He's turned 12 targets into eight catches for 66 yards and three touchdowns this season as one of Tyler Shough's favorite targets near the end zone.

Pollard (foot) did not practice Wednesday.

Pollard dealt with a foot issue that limited his participation in practice last week, but the veteran still played against the Ravens. He may be on a similar trajectory going into Week 5. Pollard was able to log a full practice Thursday going into Week 4. The Titans host the Texans on Sunday.
