Johnson (leg) is active for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

Johnson has been on injured reserve all season but was activated before Thursday's game. He'll be set for his season debut and will likely contribute primarily on special teams.

Butler (back) is active for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

Butler was limited all week in preparation for the game. He'll still manage to suit up and should be in line for around a 70 percent defensive snap rate along the Raiders' defensive line.

Horton (groin/shin) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Horton was listed as full following Wednesday's walkthrough with a groin injury, but a shin issue was tacked on Thursday that didn't allow him to mix into drills. It's a concerning development just three days before Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, but his status nonetheless will be watched closely to see if he may be in danger of sitting out Week 10. Jake Bobo (calf) and Dareke Young (quadricep) also haven't practiced this week, while Cooper Kupp (hamstring/heel) upgraded to limited Thursday, so a number of question marks remain in the Seahawks' receiving corps.

Pola-Mao (hip) is active for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

Pola-Mao was a limited participant in the Raiders' walkthroughs in preparation for Thursday's game. That will be enough for him to suit up, and he should play nearly every defensive snap while carrying strong IDP value.

White (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's Week 10 battle against the Broncos.

White is inactive for the Raiders' fourth straight game, as he appears to have lost any sort of gameday role. Las Vegas is rolling with Ashton Jeanty, Raheem Mostert and Dylan Laube in its backfield Thursday. White hasn't logged an offensive snap since Week 3 against Washington.

McLaughlin (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Raiders.

McLaughlin has appeared in only one game this season. With each of J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie healthy and playing, McLaughlin will remain a spectator for Thursday's matchup.

Kupp (hamstring/heel) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Kupp thus logged his first on-field work in exactly one week, potentially putting him on a path to miss just one game as a result of hamstring and heel injuries. Meanwhile, all of Tory Horton (groin/shin), Jake Bobo (calf) and Dareke Young (quadriceps) didn't practice Thursday, leaving the Seahawks with just two healthy wide receivers in Jaxon Smith-Njigba and newcomer Rashid Shaheed. Friday's practice report will reveal who among the quartet will have a chance to be available alongside Smith-Njigba and Shaheed this Sunday against the Cardinals.

Locke (neck) is active for Thursday's Week 10 matchup against Las Vegas.

Locke missed last Sunday's win over Houston due to a neck issue, but it appears that his absence won't extend beyond one game. Locke's return will most impact Denver's special-teams unit, as the safety logged just 12 defensive snaps (as opposed to 128 snaps on special teams) over the club's first eight contests.

Herbert (groin) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Herbert wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so it's possible he's dealing with a groin injury. The 27-year-old running back signed with the Jets in early October and has acted as a depth piece since, behind starter Breece Hall, Isaiah Davis and Kene Nwangwu.

Nacua (chest) practiced in full Thursday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Nacua noted as much and also relayed that his ribs "feel good" after making an early exit from this past Sunday's win against the Saints. Coach Sean McVay told Grosbard on Wednesday that scans of Nacua's ribs came back negative, and after following up a limited showing to begin Week 10 prep with no restrictions one day later, he's in the clear ahead of Sunday's road showdown with the 49ers.
