Kalel Mullings RB | TEN
Titans' Kalel Mullings: Limited on Wednesday
Mullings (ankle) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Mullings was injured in the Titans' Week 1 opener against the Broncos and missed last Sunday's loss to the Rams. With Tyjae Spears (ankle, IR) injured right now, Mullings is the Titans' RB3 behind Tony Pollard and Julius Chestnut.

Evan Engram TE | DEN
Broncos' Evan Engram: Misses practice Wednesday
Broncos head coach Sean Payton said Wednesday that Engram (undisclosed) did not practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Payton declined to comment on the nature of Engram's injury. The veteran tight end was forced out early during Denver's win over the Titans in Week 1 due to a calf injury, but he was able to gain full clearance in time to return Week 2 against the Colts. Engram has, however, failed to play 50 percent in either of the Broncos' two games so far this season, and he's totaled just two catches for 33 yards on four targets thus far. Even if Engram manages to gain full clearance in time for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, fantasy managers may want to search elsewhere for options at the tight end position.

Christian Gonzalez CB | NE
Patriots' Christian Gonzalez: Officially limited Wednesday
Gonzalez (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
It was Gonzalez's first practice action since suffering a hamstring injury very early in training camp. It's unclear if Gonzalez will be able to do enough this week in practice in order to play in Sunday's game against the Steelers, but it does look like he's closing in on a return soon.

Tony Adams SAF | TEN
Jets' Tony Adams: Misses practice Wednesday
Adams (hip) did not practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Adams was injured in the first half of last Sunday's loss to the Bills and was unable to return. Adams has started each of the Jets' first two games and has recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) on 83 defensive snaps. Isaiah Oliver saw elevated playing time following Adams' departure last week.

Xavier Legette WR | CAR
Panthers' Xavier Legette: Picks up minor injury
Legette was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.
Participation of any kind at the start of the week is a good sign for Sunday availability. Legette showed no clear sign of injury in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, logging an 81 percent snap share and an 81 percent route share, but he caught just one of eight targets for minus-two yards on a day when Carolina's other wideouts combined for 196 yards and two touchdowns. Legette's role could come into question soon, especially if Jalen Coker (quad) comes back from injured reserve at some point in October.

Charvarius Ward CB | IND
Colts' Charvarius Ward: Back to full practice
Ward (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
After missing Week 2 with a concussion, Ward appears to have cleared the league's protocol, putting him in line to play Sunday against the Titans. Ward's return could impact Calvin Ridley's projections for Week 3.

Jalen Royals WR | KC
Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Officially limited Wednesday
Royals (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Royals is practicing for the first time since having missed Kansas City's first two games of the regular season due to knee tendinitis, so to see him handling even limited reps is encouraging. The rookie fourth-round pick will work to continue progressing at practice and gain clearance in time to suit up Sunday night on the road against the Giants.

Xavier Worthy WR | KC
Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Limited in return to practice
Worthy (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Sunday that Worthy was "looking good" for a Week 3 return. The wideout's subsequent return to practice supports that notion, though neither Worthy nor coach Andy Reid has commented on expectations yet. The Chiefs hope to have Worthy and/or Jalen Royals (knee) back in the lineup this Sunday at the Giants, after each of Hollywood Brown, Tyquan Thornton and JuJu Smith-Schuster got at least a 74 percent route share in the Week 2 loss to Philadelphia.
