Rodriguez (calf) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Dallas, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports.

Rodriguez practiced for the first time since Week 5 prep as he tended to a calf injury the last two weeks. Friday's uncapped session likely indicates that he's close to 100 percent, but it's unclear if he'll be able to carve out much of a role behind starter Jacory Croskey-Merritt and complementary option Jeremy McNichols in the Commanders backfield this weekend. Rodriguez logged just one offensive snap during Monday's loss to the Bears, failing to see a touch for the first time in his four appearances this season.

Bowers (knee) was present for practice Friday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Bowers didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but the tight end's presence at Friday's session offers hope that he could play Sunday against the Chiefs after having missed two straight games. The Raiders' upcoming injury report will reveal both Bowers' official participation level, as well as his Week 7 game status. Las Vegas has a Week 8 bye, so if there's any concern of a possible setback with Bowers' knee, the team could elect to err on the side of caution this week.

Meyers (knee/toe) is participating in practice Friday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

This is welcome news after Meyers didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, though it remains to be seen whether Meyers goes down as a full or limited participant Friday. Las Vegas' injury report will come out later Friday ahead of Sunday's visit to Kansas City. If he's healthy enough to play, Meyers will try to snap out of a slump that has seen him fall short of 40 receiving yards in each of the past three games.

Duck (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Despite practicing in full all week, Duck is in jeopardy of missing his sixth consecutive game due to an ankle injury sustained in the Dolphins' Week 1 loss to the Colts. If active, he's expected to serve as one of the team's top outside corners. However, if he's sidelined again, Rasul Douglas is likely to start opposite Jack Jones in Miami's secondary.

Pearsall (knee) isn't practicing Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Pearsall is highly likely to miss another game after not practicing at all this week. There were reports last week about him doing work on a side field, but it's unclear if Pearsall has progressed since then.

Jeudy (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Dolphins after practicing fully Friday.

Jeudy was limited Wednesday and Thursday, but the wideout's return to a full session Friday paves the way for him to continue to lead the Browns' WR corps this weekend. In the team's 23-9 loss to the Steelers in Week 6, Jeudy recorded an 89 percent snap share en route to catching five of his team-high 13 targets for 43 yards. With tight end David Njoku (knee) ruled out, look for Jeudy and TE Harold Fannin (10 targets versus Pittsburgh) to remain busy in Cleveland's passing game Sunday.

Jones (hip) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

The Indiana product was unable to practice all week after sustaining a hip injury in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Broncos, so it's no surprise that he'll likely be sidelined Sunday. Jones has played primarily on special teams this season (three defensive snaps and 105 special-teams snaps), recording four total tackles. Mark Robinson could see increased work as a reserve outside linebacker if Jones is out in Week 7.

Jones (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Despite logging consecutive DNPs to finish the Titans' week of practice, Jones still has a chance to suit up Sunday. The 28-year-old has appeared in all six of Tennessee's games thus far, recording 17 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 265 defensive snaps. If he's sidelined in Week 7, Jihad Ward is likely to start as one of the Titans' top outside linebackers.

Waller (hip/rest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Waller was limited in all three of Miami's practices but avoided an injury designation. The 33-year-old tight end's practice reps have been managed throughout the season, but Waller has been effective on game days. Since making his Dolphins debut Week 4, Waller has compiled a three-game touchdown streak, producing 10 catches for 117 yards and four touchdowns on 12 targets.

Reynolds (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Reynolds is good to go after logging a full practice Friday. He's expected to work as the team's top wide receiver since Garrett Wilson (knee) is doubtful, but Reynolds' upside is capped by Justin Fields' limitations as a passer. Fields threw for only 45 yards in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Broncos, which dropped the Jets to 0-6.
