Kamara (knee/ankle) did not practice Thursday, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Kamara has now missed back-to-back practices since suffering a sprained MCL during New Orleans' loss to the Falcons in Week 12, an injury that forced him to sit out the entire second half of that contest. Meanwhile, top backup running back Devin Neal (ankle) was limited again in Thursday's practice, while No. 1 wideout Chris Olave (back) downgraded to being a non-participant. Friday's final practice report of Week 13 will provide clarity on the status of all three playmakers, but New Orleans' offense is at risk of entering Sunday's road contest against the Dolphins heavily depleted.

Schooler (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.

Schooler was injured in the first half of Sunday's 26-20 victory over the Bengals and did not return to the game. The safety's inability to practice to open Week 13 prep leaves his status for Monday night's contest against the Giants in question for the time being, although Schooler will still have two more sessions in which to up his participation level.

Olave (back) did not practice Thursday, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Olave was listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report, with head coach Kellen Moore noting that the star wide receiver had been forced to depart the session early. It now looks like Olave's status is legitimately up-in-the-air for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, and could come down to whether he's able to get back on the practice field Friday. With Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) having missed back-to-back practices due to a sprained MCL, the Saints are in danger of being down two crucial playmakers Week 13.

Tonga (chest) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Tonga sustained a chest injury late in the first half of Sunday's 26-20 victory over the Bengals and was unable to return to the game. The starting nose tackle's ability to practice Wednesday means he is likely trending towards playing in Monday night's contest against the Giants.

Harrison (appendix) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Harrison maintained his listed activity level from Wednesday, which marked his first notable on-field work since undergoing an appendectomy following Week 10 action. So far, he's missed two games as a result, but Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not the second-year pro has a chance to return to action Sunday in Tampa Bay. Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch have been filling in as the Cardinals' top two wide receivers during Harrison's absence.

Henry (toe) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, which was based on what the Patriots did on the field Wednesday.

The Patriots didn't practice on Thursday, but Henry -- who logged a 79 percent snap share and was targeted 10 times in this past Sunday's win over the Bengals -- was deemed limited based on his activity in Wednesday's session. The tight end thus has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the team assigns game statuses for Monday night's game against the Giants.

Landry (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Landry played 73% of defensive snaps and notched 1.0 sacks in Sunday's 26-20 victory over the Bengals. He apparently sustained an injury in the process, and the inability to practice leaves his status for Monday's game against the Giants in question.

Knight (knee) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Meanwhile, Trey Benson (knee), who remains on injured reserve, and Emari Demercado (ankle) were listed as non-participants, leaving Knight and Michael Carter as the healthiest of the Cardinals' top options at running back at the moment. Friday's practice report will reveal who among the quartet has a chance to suit up Sunday at Tampa Bay.

Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Cowboys, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Mitchell got a chance to make his season debut Week 11 versus Denver but reverted to being a healthy scratch Week 12. With Isiah Pacheco now back in action, Mitchell quietly falls back to No. 4 on Kansas City's backfield depth chart. In his lone regular-season appearance thus far, Mitchell played seven offensive snaps and failed to haul in his only target.

Witherspoon (shoulder), who officially remains on IR, was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Witherspoon logged two straight full practices after being designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. Considering his practice participation, the Rams will likely activate him to the 53-man roster in time for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
