Concepcion (calf, quad) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

The rookie is starting the week with a limited practice due to calf and quad issues. That he was able to participate is a good sign, however, even if Concepcion wasn't a full-go. Concepcion's status for Sunday's game against the Titans will become more clear with Friday's injury report.

Golden (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Golden's inclusion coincides with QB Jordan Love (back) and WR Christian Watson (ankle), among others, also being listed as limited to kick off Week 7 prep. The situation thus bears monitoring as the week continues to see if any of the trio is in danger of missing Sunday's contest at Detroit.

Watson was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to an ankle injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Not only was Watson listed as limited, but so were QB Jordan Love (back) and WR Matthew Golden (back), among others. The situation thus leaves the Packers offense in a bit of flux as the team begins Week 7 prep, but two practices remain for each one to play itself out before Green Bay potentially tags any of them with designations for Sunday's game in Detroit.

Love was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a back injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

The Packers' decision to include Love on their first Week 7 injury report may be precautionary, but his situation now bears watching as the week continues to see if he's in any danger of missing Sunday's game at Detroit. The team also listed WRs Christian Watson (ankle) and Matthew Golden (shoulder) as limited, so three top skill-position players are dealing with health concerns at the moment.

Boston (foot) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Though he didn't end up practicing fully at any point in Week 6 while managing the same foot injury, Boston still avoided a designation for this past Sunday's 13-10 win over the Ravens and ended up logging more than 90 percent of the offensive snaps. As long as he maintains or increases his current level of practice activity throughout the week, Boston should be ready to handle his usual playing time this coming Sunday versus the Titans.

Warren (groin) did not practice Wednesday.

A groin injury cropped up for Warren on Friday going into Week 6, and it prevented him from suiting up against the Titans. He was unable to practice Wednesday, which puts his practice participation firmly on the radar for the remainder of the week. If he's unable to go Sunday, Mo Alie-Cox and Will Mallory would take most of the tight end reps.

Judkins (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Before sitting out this past Sunday's 13-10 win over the Ravens, Judkins was able to close Week 6 prep with a limited practice Friday. He's maintained that level of activity heading into Week 7, and as long as he's able to continuing practicing in some fashion Thursday and Friday, Judkins should have a good chance at making his return to action this Sunday versus the Titans. If available, Judkins should operate as the Browns' lead option on the ground, though he could cede some snaps on passing downs to Dylan Sampson (knee), who was also limited Wednesday and could be ready to make his return from injured reserve this Sunday.

Ridley (hip) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The veteran is dealing with a hip issue but was able to get some work in during the first practice session of the week. Ridley's status will come into focus in the coming days before the Titans release their final injury report ahead of the Week 7 game against the Browns.

Samuel (hamstring) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group reports.

The 49ers are coming off a Monday Night Football win and therefore not holding an official practice Wednesday. That being said, coach Kyle Shanahan said that Samuel would not be practicing. Samuel is working his way back from his hamstring injury and the sense is that a return after the 49ers' Week 8 bye is more realistic at this stage.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Evans (Achilles) isn't expected to practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Evans exited late in the first half of Monday's game against the Commanders and was quickly ruled out due to an Achilles injury that initially showed up during Week 6 prep. Shanahan told Wagoner afterward that Evans is dealing with right Achilles tendinitis, and while he doesn't believe it's a long-term concern, he also is hopeful the veteran wide receiver will be able to play Sunday in Atlanta. Evans already has proven he doesn't need much, if any, on-field work in a given week to be available on game day, but this particular occasion appears to be different.
