Jones (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Jones suffered a shoulder injury in the Week 2 win over Pittsburgh and wasn't able to suit up in Week 3 against Jacksonville. It appears he's moving in a favorable direction toward a return. However, if Jones can't get on the field for the AFC East clash with the Bills in Week 4, Gabe Jacas should continue to fill the void.

Tracy (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Tracy didn't practice at all Wednesday, so his return (albeit in a limited fashion) Thursday is a sign that he's improving. The third-year pro seems to have a chance of playing Week 4 against Arizona, though he'll likely have an injury designation heading into the weekend if he's not able to practice fully Friday. Even if Tracy does suit up Sunday, he's unlikely to have a major role on offense given that he's logged just four offensive snaps through three contests on the campaign.

Parkinson (knee/shoulder) remained sidelined at Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

In addition to the shoulder injury he suffered last Sunday against Denver, Parkinson is still battling through a knee issue. If neither he nor Terrance Ferguson (ankle) are able to play Sunday against the Eagles, the Rams will need to lean on Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen and rookie Max Klare at tight end.

Anderson (ankle) was a full participant at the Texans' practice Thursday.

Anderson was limited to open the week with an ankle injury, but he now appears to be good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys. The defensive lineman has compiled 18 total tackles (10 solo), including 4.0 sacks, while also adding both a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over three contests to open the 2026 campaign.

Holani (ribs) remained limited in Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The Seahawks are banged up in the backfield, as Jadarian Price (chest) was downgraded to DNP after a limited session Thursday, and Zach Charbonnet (knee/PUP) was limited in his first practice of the season. It appears as if Emanuel Wilson could be in line for a decent workload Sunday against the Chargers if Price is unable to play and Holani is less than 100 percent.

Price (chest) didn't practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Price opened Week 4 prep as limited Wednesday due to a chest issue, which didn't allow him to mix into any drills one day later. He thus has one more opportunity to practice Friday before the Seahawks potentially make a decision on his availability ahead of the weekend. Ultimately, if Price is limited or sidelined Sunday versus the Chargers, Emanuel Wilson likely would take on most of the early-down and short-yardage work, with George Holani on hand in a change-of-pace role.

Brooks (hamstring) did not participate at the Texans' practice Thursday.

Brooks has missed back-to-back practices to open the week as he nurses a hamstring injury that he likely suffered against the Colts in Week 3. The running back will have one more chance to participate at Friday's final practice of the week, and if he can't go Sunday against the Cowboys, it wouldn't impact the team's offensive approach.

The Texans placed Whittington (quadriceps) on the practice squad injured list Thursday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Whittington suffered a torn quad during practice this week, and while the move to the injured list will prevent him from being eligible for elevation for four weeks, the rookie could be sidelined for longer. Whittington linked up with Houston as an undrafted free agent in early May following a strong senior season with Oregon.

Black (personal) is active for Thursday's game against Cleveland, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Black carried a questionable designation but has since been cleared for action in Week 4. The 24-year-old logged 54 defensive snaps combined in the first three games of the 2026 campaign, accumulating four total tackles (one solo).

McConkey (foot) was seen walking out of the locker room with a limp after not taking part in Thursday's practice, Kris Rhim of ESPN reports.

McConkey showed up on the Chargers' first Week 4 injury report Wednesday as limited due to a foot injury. His downgrade to DNP one day later was potentially an ominous sign of things to come, and the aforementioned limp adds fuel to the fire that he may be in danger of sitting out Sunday's game at Seattle. Ultimately, the team may clarify McConkey's status when it posts its final practice report of the week Friday.
