Coach Jesse Minter said Wednesday that Flowers (hamstring) still is considered day-to-day, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Prior to Minter's media session, Flowers wasn't spotted during the open portion of the Ravens' first Week 2 session. A hamstring injury stemming from the team's Week 1 win at Indianapolis is to blame, and Wednesday's practice report will reveal if Flowers was able to log any on-field reps.

Coach Jesse Minter said Lane underwent wrist surgery Wednesday, and the Ravens placed the rookie wide receiver on injured reserve, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Lane left the Ravens' Week 1 win at Indianapolis with a wrist injury that eventually was confirmed to include a fracture. With his move to IR, he'll be required to miss at least the next four games, meaning his next chance for game action will come Oct. 18 at Cleveland. As long as Lane is sidelined, Zay Flowers (hamstring), Rashod Bateman, Devontez Walker (groin), Elijah Sarratt and LaJohntay Wester will be among those that could see additional action at wide receiver for Baltimore.

Coach Kevin O'Connell said Murray (concussion) will be limited at Wednesday's practice, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Murray lasted 11 offensive snaps before suffering a concussion this past Sunday against the Packers when he was sandwiched between two defenders. Carson Wentz came on in relief of Murray and helped lead the Vikings to a 39-22 victory. O'Connell told Alec Lewis of The Athletic on Monday that Murray would be evaluated day by day as the team prepares for Sunday's road matchup with the Bears, but if the quarterback doesn't make the requisite progress and gain clearance from an independent neurologist, Wentz again will be under center for Minnesota.

Coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday that Mason has a small fracture in his thumb that underwent surgery, and the running back will be placed on injured reserve, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Mason emerged from the Vikings' Week 1 win against the Packers with a sore thumb, but the severity of the issue didn't become clear until O'Connell spoke to the media Wednesday. With Mason out for at least the next four games, Aaron Jones is set to lead the Vikings backfield for the foreseeable future, with Demond Claiborne, DeeJay Dallas and practice-squad member Jerome Ford all candidates for reps that don't go to Jones.

Burrow wasn't involved in the team stretch and didn't make any throws of substance during Wednesday's practice, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Prior to the stretch, Burrow made throws of roughly 15 yards apart along with backup QB Joe Flacco, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. Dehner added that head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that some Bengals would be limited in practice this week, but none of those health concerns were major. Burrow is scheduled to speak with the media Wednesday afternoon, while Cincinnati will post its first Week 2 injury report imminently, so clarity on his situation should arrive in the near future.

Coker (ankle) is suited up but working with trainers on a side field at Wednesday's practice, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.

After reeling off eight catches (on nine targets) for 138 yards and two touchdowns during a Week 1 loss to the Bears, Coker was spotted in a walking boot Monday due to a left ankle injury suffered in that contest. He told Kaye at the time that the boot was a precaution, and now his practice reps, or lack thereof, to begin Week 2 prep will become known later Wednesday.

Head coach Klint Kubiak said that Bowers (knee) won't practice Wednesday but hopes the tight end will be able to Thursday and/or Friday, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Bowers is a little more than a week removed from undergoing a meniscus trim on his left knee, for which he sat out the Raiders' Week 1 win against the Dolphins this past Sunday. His next practice reps would mark his first since the surgery, so getting back on the field in some capacity this week would give him a chance to return to action Sunday at the Chargers. Another absence from Bowers, though, would allow Michael Mayer exclusive access to TE reps in the Raiders offense.

Coach Todd Bowles said McMillan (knee) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Prior to being inactive Week 1 at Cincinnati, McMillan had been dealing with a knee issue since early August that contained him to three limited practices last week. With an uninhibited session now under his belt, he's seemingly in the clear to return to action Sunday against the Browns. Assuming that's the case, McMillan and rookie third-rounder Ted Hurst would be the candidates for snaps in three-wide sets behind starters Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin.

Coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday that Tracy is dealing with an illness, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Three days removed from logging just two offensive snaps in the Giants' season-opening win against the Cowboys, Tracy wasn't able to take part in Wednesday's unofficial practice. Harbaugh believes Tracy will be back on the practice field Thursday, after which the team will post its first Week 2 injury report ahead of Monday's game at the Rams.

Head coach Mike Vrabel said Henderson (ankle) will "do some more" at Wednesday's practice, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.

Prior to sitting out the Patriots' Week 1 loss at Seattle, Henderson had been sidelined from practice since Aug. 24. The team held an unofficial session Monday, for which Henderson's activity level wasn't divulged, so how he's listed Wednesday may provide insight into his odds to suit up Sunday against the Steelers.
