Golden (shoulder/foot) is listed as active Thursday against the Panthers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Golden was contained to just one limited walkthrough (Wednesday) during Week 8 prep due to shoulder and foot injuries, but James Palmer of NFL on Prime Video reported earlier Thursday that the Packers were optimistic about the second-year wide receiver's availability. Indeed, Golden is suiting up, looking to build upon the 36-540-3 line on 69 targets that he's racked up through the first seven contests of the season.

Daniels (Achilles) was limited in Thursday's practice, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Daniels practiced in full Wednesday, though after being downgraded to limited Thursday, there is concern he won't be on the field in Week 8 versus Tampa Bay. The 23-year-old is coming off the best performance of his career in the Week 7 win over the 49ers, garnering 11 tackles (nine solo) and one interception. His services will be needed even more if Divine Deablo (forearm) can't suit up once again. However, if Deablo and Daniels are both sidelined, Harold Perkins, Christian Harris and Josh Woods would likely be more involved.

Bech (forearm) practiced fully Thursday.

Since being designated for return from injured reserve Monday, Bech has logged consecutive full practices. Should the wideout maintain that level of activity Friday, he'll have a chance to suit up Sunday against the Jets. For that to happen, Bech will need to come of IR by Saturday. If that transpires, the 2025 second-rounder will have a chance to boost a Las Vegas WR corps that has yielded modest production thus far apart from Tre Tucker.

Deablo (forearm) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Deablo injured his forearm during the Week 6 loss to the Bears, which ultimately kept him off the field for Sunday's win over the 49ers. The 28-year-old didn't practice Wednesday, and while he was limited Thursday, he likely has more hurdles to clear before suiting up Sunday versus Tampa Bay. If Deablo can't get out there in Week 8, Harold Perkins and Kendal Daniels (Achilles) could be in line for more snaps.

Zaccheaus (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Zaccheaus didn't play in the 29-20 win over San Francisco on Sunday. While his limited participation in the Falcons' previous two practices is a positive sign, he still may be heading for an injury designation for the Week 8 meeting with Tampa Bay. The 29-year-old hasn't been overly involved this season, catching four passes (11 targets) for 17 yards. However, Zaccheaus plays a role as a return man on special teams, so if he's not cleared to play Sunday, Jahan Dotson and Zachariah Branch may see more action in that area, even more so if Brian Robinson (hamstring) is also unavailable.

Burks (foot) didn't practice Thursday.

Burks was limited in Wednesday's practice, and it's unclear if his 'DNP' a day later was maintenance-related or the result of a setback. If Burks is available Sunday against the Eagles, he'll have an opportunity to make an impact in a Washington WR corps that has lost receiving yardage leader Terry McLaurin to a season-ending knee injury.

Delane (shoulder) did not practice Thursday.

Delane practiced Wednesday, though after missing Thursday's session, he is now listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's divisional clash with the Broncos. The 22-year-old rookie dealt with the issue during training camp, and while he managed to suit up in Week 1 against Denver, he aggravated the injury during the contest and missed the Week 2 overtime victory over the Colts. He has had a sound inaugural campaign, amassing 27 total tackles (17 solo), one interception and five passes defended. If Delane can't play in Week 8, Christian Roland-Wallace and Kristian Fulton would be in line for more playing time.

Ridley (hip) was limited at practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The same applies applies to Wednesday's session, giving the wideout one more chance to up his participation level ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. So far this season, Ridley has recorded just five catches on 10 targets for 81 yards in six games, a pace that has kept him off the fantasy radar thus far.

Dulcich (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Dulcich was also limited at Wednesday's practice, so the tight end likely needs to work fully Friday in order to approach Sunday's game against the Patriots without an injury designation. Dulcich has been targeted five times in each of his last two contests, a span in which he's logged a 9/123/0 receiving line.

McConkey (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

McConkey has back-to-back uncapped practices under his belt this week, but it remains unclear if he's gained clearance from the concussion protocol, which requires getting the all-clear from an independent neurologist. Friday's injury report will reveal if he still needs to pass such an exam ahead of Sunday's game versus the Rams.
