Jackson (knee) returned to a full practice Thursday.

Jackson was deemed a 'DNP' on Wednesday due to knee soreness, but a day later he was able to work fully and moved around well in the process, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, which paves the way for Jackson to play Sunday against the Browns. In his last outing, the star QB completed 17 of his 29 pass attempts for 176 yards with a touchdown, while adding nine carries for 36 yards in the Ravens' Week 10 win over the Vikings.

Lucas (back) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Lucas was forced to miss Week 10 against the Jets with a back injury that popped up on last Friday's injury report. Since then, the backup right tackle has logged a limited practice session Wednesday and upgraded to a full session Thursday. The 34-year-old veteran looks to be on track to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Ravens and reclaim his spot on the depth chart as the backup right tackle to Jack Conklin.

Likely (hip) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Likely was limited in practice Wednesday due to a hip issue, but he's already resumed handling full reps and is ready to rock for Sunday's road matchup against the Browns. He's drawn exactly four targets in each of his last two appearances, in which span he's combined for five catches for 77 yards. However, the extent of tight end Mark Andrews' involvement in the passing game, especially the red zone, continues to make Likely difficult to rely on for fantasy purposes.

Tillman (glute) remained limited in practice Thursday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

It's unclear if this glute injury is connected to the hamstring injury that landed Tillman on injured reserve prior to his return in Cleveland's Week 10 loss to the Jets. Tillman may just be getting eased back into practice following his return to action, but he would probably need to log a full practice Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Dobbins (foot) didn't practice Thursday, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports.

Dobbins has been a non-participant in Denver's first two practices of Week 11 preparations, and he's unlikely to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs considering Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reported Tuesday that Dobbins could be in line for a multi-week absence. If Dobbins is indeed ruled out on Friday's injury report, that would pave the way for rookie second-round pick RJ Harvey to take over as Denver's lead back while Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin play complementary roles.

Adams (oblique) was in pads and warming up before Thursday's practice, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Prior to Adams sitting out Wednesday's practice, coach Sean McVay told Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com that he expected the veteran wide receiver to play Sunday versus the Seahawks after he left this past Sunday's win at San Francisco early due to an oblique injury. A return to drills Thursday is a step in the right direction, but it remains to be seen if he'll be listed as limited or full on the Rams' second Week 11 practice report.

Fannin (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Fannin played through his hamstring injury during Cleveland's loss to the Jets in Week 10, in which he caught four of seven targets for 44 yards. Now, coming off back-to-back limited practices, he'll likely need to upgrade to full activity levels at Friday's session in order to avoid an injury designation for Week 11. That said, as long as Fannin can close out the practice week with at least another limited session, it appears he'll have solid odds of being available for Sunday's contest against the Ravens.

Wicks (calf) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.

For four weeks in a row, Wicks has been listed with the calf injury that sidelined him Weeks 8 and 9. In his return to action Monday against the Eagles, he hauled in four of eight targets for 38 yards on a 65 percent snap share, which is more or less in line with his typical workload. The Packers continue to deal with a number of injuries in the receiving corps -- also, Christian Watson (knee/hamstring), Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot) -- all of whom were limited Thursday. The statuses of all four players may be clarified ahead of Sunday's game at the Giants once Green Bay posts its final Week 11 practice report Friday.

Nelson (illness) did not practice Thursday.

Nelson popped up on Thursday's injury report with an illness, leaving his status for Sunday's road game against the Bills in question. Due to the absence of Haason Reddick (ankle/knee), the outside linebacker played 92 percent of defensive snaps in last week's loss to the Patriots and made use of the increased opportunity by logging six tackles (three solo). Nelson's participation level in Friday's practice should provide a much more concrete indication of his chances of suiting up for Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Bills.

Bellinger (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Bellinger has logged back-to-back limited practice sessions to kick off Week 11 prep, so unless he's able to upgrade to full reps Friday, he'll be at risk of carrying an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Packers. If Bellinger isn't able to suit up versus Green Bay, Theo Johnson will figure to benefit from a slight increase in target share as Jameis Winston makes his first start at quarterback for New York.
