Kupp (heel/hamstring) was a limited practice participant Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

One day removed from being listed as full with just a heel injury Wednesday, Kupp experienced a downgrade in activity level as a hamstring issue was added to Seattle's practice report. His status thus is worth monitoring as the week goes on to get a sense of his availability for Sunday's game at Washington. With Jake Bobo (Achilles) limited Thursday and Dareke Young (quadriceps) unable to practice so far this week, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tory Horton are the only healthy wide receivers on the Seahawks' active roster at the moment.

Davis (quadriceps) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Ravens, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Davis will miss his first game of the 2025 campaign due to a quadriceps injury he sustained against the Falcons on Sunday. Ifeatu Melifonwu has been cleared to play after working through a thumb injury, and he's slated to start at safety alongside Minkah Fitzpatrick in Davis' absence.

Ewers (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Dolphins' emergency third quarterback against the Ravens on Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Ewers will serve as the QB3 behind Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson for a second consecutive game. Ewers will not be allowed to play Thursday unless Tagovailoa and Wilson are both removed from the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

Jones (knee) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.

Jones appears to be dealing with the same knee issue that capped his practice reps before the Cardinals' last two games before a Week 8 bye. While working with fill-in QB Jacoby Brissett with Kyler Murray (foot) inactive for those contests, Jones hauled in seven of 10 passes for 146 yards and no touchdowns (after combining for a 5-37-0 line on seven targets in his first four appearances of the season). There's a chance Brissett again leads Arizona's offense Monday at Dallas, as Murray kicked off Week 9 prep as a limited participant as well.

Walker (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against Miami.

Walker will be a healthy scratch for a second consecutive week, which leaves Tylan Wallace and LaJohntay Wester as the Ravens' depth options at wide receiver behind Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and DeAndre Hopkins. Walker's next chance to play is Week 10 against the Vikings on Sunday, Nov. 9.

Wright (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday night's game against the Ravens.

With Wright the odd man out versus Baltimore, De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon will handle Miami's Week 9 backfield duties. Wright's next chance to suit up for game action will arrive Sunday, Nov. 9 against the Bills.

Rush (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Dolphins but will serve as the Ravens' emergency third quarterback.

Rush was the Ravens' starting QB for Weeks 5 and 6 but was demoted to backup duties behind Tyler Huntley for Week 8 against the Bears. With Lamar Jackson cleared to return from a three-game absence Thursday, Huntley will operate as the backup while Rush serves as the emergency third quarterback. As such, Rush will be permitted to see the field Thursday only if Jackson and Huntley were both removed due to injury, illness or ejection.

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

Baker was able to practice without restriction Thursday, but he will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to be removed from the league's concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers. Baker could have a more prominent role in Tennessee's defense for the second half of the regular season after the Titans traded Roger McCreary to the Rams on Monday.

Nacua (ankle) was a full practice participant Thursday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Nacua was limited in his return to practice Wednesday, despite looking like himself while running routes and making cuts, per Nate Atkins of The Athletic. One day later, though, Nacua had no on-field restrictions, paving the way for his first appearance since he sustained a low left-ankle sprain Week 6 at Baltimore. He even told Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times after Thursday's session that he's "feeling good" and expects to play Sunday against the Saints.

The Chargers designated Harris (undisclosed) to return from injured reserve Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

The veteran long snapper opened the regular season on injured reserve due to an undisclosed issue, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to return to practice. Once fully healthy, Harris would reclaim his role as the Chargers' long snapper from Rick Lovato.
