James Pearce Jr. DE | ATL
Falcons' James Pearce: Misses practice Wednesday
Pearce (groin) did not practice Wednesday.
Pearce dealt with the groin issue ahead of last Sunday's win over the Vikings but played in that contest and logged two tackles, including 0.5 sacks, on 36 percent of the defensive snaps. Leonard Floyd, Jalon Walker and Arnold Ebiketie would handle edge-rushing duties in Week 3 against the Panthers if Pearce is unable to play.

Tory Horton WR | SEA
Seahawks' Tory Horton: Dealing with groin issue
Horton was limited at practice Wednesday due to a groin injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
After going without a target in his pro debut Week 1 against the 49ers, Horton got in the act this past Sunday at Pittsburgh, recording a 21-yard touchdown among his two catches and five targets. As Seattle begins Week 3 prep, though, he's operating with a cap on his practice reps, giving him two more chances to get back to all activity before the end of the week.

SirVocea Dennis LB | TB
Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Limited practice Wednesday
Dennis (ankle) was a limited participant at the Buccaneers' practice Wednesday.
Dennis popped up on the injury report with an apparent ankle injury Wednesday, which he may have suffered in the team's 20-19 win over the Texans on Monday Night Football. The linebacker's ability to practice in any capacity to open the week is a good sign for his chances to play Sunday versus the Jets. Dennis will have two more chances to log a full practice before the end of the week.

A.J. Terrell CB | ATL
Falcons' A.J. Terrell: Considered week-to-week
Terrell (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.
Coach Raheem Morris added that Terrell is considered week-to-week, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, so it sounds like the Falcons are going to be without their top cornerback against Tetairoa McMillan and the Panthers in Week 3. Terrell suffered the injury in last Sunday night's win over the Vikings.

Kaden Elliss LB | NO
Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Limited on Wednesday
Elliss (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Elliss played 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Sunday night against Minnesota, so it's unclear when he was injured. If Elliss is unavailable for Week 3 against the Panthers, DeAngelo Malone, JD Bertrand and Josh Woods would be next in line for snaps alongside Divine Deablo at linebacker.

DaRon Bland CB | DAL
Cowboys' DaRon Bland: No practice Wednesday
Bland (foot) was estimated as a DNP for Wednesday's walk-through practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Bland originally suffered the injury following Dallas' Week 1 loss, and the expectation was that he might miss multiple weeks. It doesn't come as a big surprise that he was estimated to not practice Wednesday as a result, though he'll have two more chances to get some level of practice in prior to the team's Week 3 matchup against the Bears.

Casey Washington WR | CAR
Falcons' Casey Washington: Gets in limited practice
Washington (concussion) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Washington missed last Sunday night's win over the Vikings with the concussion, but his limited start to the practice week suggests he has a chance to play Week 3 versus Carolina. With Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud healthy, Washington is unlikely to have much of a role on offense against the Panthers if he's cleared to play.
-
John Bates TE | WAS
Commanders' John Bates: Misses practice
Bates (groin) did not practice Wednesday.
Bates was injured in the first half of last Thursday night's loss to the Packers, and coach Dan Quinn said Monday that Bates is a "long shot" to play in Week 3 against the Raiders. Ben Sinnott and Colson Yankoff are next up at tight end behind starter Zach Ertz.
-
Zach Charbonnet RB | SEA
Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet: DNP due to foot issue
Charbonnet didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Charbonnet played a shade more than 50 percent of the offensive snaps in both of the Seahawks' first two games of the season, accounting for 27 carries for 57 yards and one touchdown and not being targeted. Meanwhile, fellow RB Kenneth Walker was capped at a 40 percent share in both contests but churned out 142 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD on 27 touches. If Charbonnet's new health concern impacts his game-day workload or even sidelines him, Walker would be in line for a significant boost in snaps and touches.

Brock Bowers TE | LV
Raiders' Brock Bowers: Limited at practice Wednesday
Bowers (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Bowers was listed as questionable ahead of Monday's 20-9 loss to the Chargers, but he was able to suit up and handle a 77 percent snap share while catching five of his eight targets for 38 yards. With no reported setbacks in the contest, there's a solid chance that Bowers' listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related.
