Coach Sean McVay said Adams won't practice Wednesday due to a sore hamstring, but he doesn't believe the wide receiver will miss Sunday's game against the Colts, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Adams has been targeted early and often to start his stint with the Rams, racking up 29 targets through three games. Overall, he's hauled in 13 of them for 213 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he's tending to a health concern, though, Adams' stats bears watching this week to see if he's able to emerge without a designation ahead of Sunday's contest.

Charbonnet (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game at Arizona, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

After sitting out a Week 3 win against the Saints due to a foot injury, Charbonnet was listed as full on Monday's practice estimate and then was able to log every rep at Tuesday's walkthrough. Despite the lack of limitations this week, he won't escape it without a designation ahead of Week 4 action. Ultimately, Charbonnet's availability will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. He likely will resume his timeshare with fellow RB Kenneth Walker if he's active.

Worthy (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Worthy thus appears likely to return for Sunday's game against the Ravens. He was listed as a limited practice participant all of last week, getting a 'questionable' designation on the Friday injury report before downgrading to 'out' Saturday. Worthy's likely return to the lineup could mean less playing time for any or all of Hollywood Brown, Tyquan Thornton and/or JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Daniels (knee) said he felt no discomfort during a limited practice Wednesday, but he still isn't sure if team doctors will clear him for Sunday's game at Atlanta, ESPN.com's John Keim reports.

The gist of Daniels' media session was that he thinks he's healthy enough to play but isn't sure if the doctors will let him. He also said he'll defer to medical staff on the potential use of a knee brace, having never tried/needed one before. The Commanders could hardly be blamed for a cautious approach this early in the season, especially after backup QB Marcus Mariota played well last week, but it does sound like Daniels wants to play and thinks he can do so.

Kraft was limited at Wednesday's practice due to knee and elbow injuries.

Kraft tweaked his left knee at practice last Thursday, but he was able to start this past Sunday's game in Cleveland and pace Packers tight ends in snap share (88 percent). His pass-catching prowess from the first two weeks of the season wasn't evident, though, as he hauled in three of four targets for 29 yards and no touchdowns. Kraft getting on-field work to begin Week 4 prep generally is a good sign that he'll be available Sunday at Dallas, but his status still bears watching as the week goes on to ensure he'll be available.

Jacobs (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.

The Packers also capped Jacobs' practice reps last week but didn't tag him with a designation prior to this past Sunday's game at Cleveland, so he may be destined for a similar fate by the end of Week 4 prep. In Week 3, he wasn't able to get much going on the ground (16-30-0), but he turned his nine targets into five catches for 44 yards. Friday's injury report will unveil whether Jacobs heads into the weekend with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest in Dallas.

Collins (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Collins, who was on the field for 54 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in the Texans' 17-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday, wound up catching eight of his 11 targets for 104 yards (with a TD and a fumble) in the contest. It's possible that the wideout's listed limitations Wednesday were indicative of load management as opposed to concern over his Week 4 status, with Thursday's practice/injury report destined to provide added context in that regard.

Lamb (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Lamb is expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks due to the high left-ankle sprain that he suffered early during this past Sunday's loss at Chicago. Since then, all of Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones and coach Brian Schottenheimer haven't said anything definitive regarding Lamb's status for a Week 4 showdown with the Packers, but Schottenheimer told Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site on Wednesday, "We can beat the Packers without CeeDee [Lamb} and [RG Tyler Booker] and the guys we're missing." Dallas can rule out Lamb at any point, but the team may wait until it posts its final injury report of the week Friday before making a decision on that front.

Mayer (concussion) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Mayer is in the concussion protocol after having been forced out of Las Vegas' loss to the Commanders in Week 3 early, and he hasn't yet progressed to the stage that would allow him limited on-field work at practice. If he's unable to gain full clearance ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Ian Thomas will get a chance to work as the No. 2 tight end behind Brock Bowers.

Slayton (calf) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

It's a new injury after Slayton played just 64 percent of the Giants' offensive snaps in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 23-9 loss to the Chiefs (he was on the field for 94.3 percent of New York's snaps this season beforehand). Coincidence or not, Slayton's ability to practice in any capacity at the start of the week suggests he's on track to play this Sunday against the Chargers in what will be the first career start for Giants QB Jaxson Dart.
