  • Commanders' Chig Okonkwo: Estimated as limited Wednesday

    Okonkwo (hamstring) was estimated as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    The veteran traveled with the team to London but still has some hurdles to clear before he returns to the field. Okonkwo has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since the season opener. It's worth noting that Wednesday's practice was a walkthrough, so this report was only an estimation. Thursday's session will shed more light on Okonkwo's status heading into the Week 4 matchup against the Colts. Fellow tight end Ben Sinnott was also estimated as limited due to a rib injury.

  • Tony Pollard RB | TEN

    Titans' Tony Pollard: Nursing foot issue

    Pollard was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice due to a foot injury.

    Pollard appeared on the Titans' Week 3 injury report due to ankle issue, but he's tending to a different health concern in Week 4. Even so, head coach Robert Saleh told Turron Davenport of ESPN.com earlier Wednesday that he doesn't think the injury is anything that will affect Pollard's status for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Through the Titans' first three games, Pollard has yet to record a touchdown and has carried 38 times for 173 yards while adding six receptions for 22 yards on seven targets.

  • Devin Lloyd LB | CAR

    Panthers' Devin Lloyd: Full practice Wednesday

    Lloyd (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    After missing last Sunday's loss to the Browns, Lloyd appears ready to return to the lineup Sunday night against the Lions. Lloyd was a star in the Panthers' Week 2 win over the Falcons, piling up nine tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sack, and two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.

  • Nick Scott SAF | CAR

    Panthers' Nick Scott: Returns to full practice

    Scott (ribs) practiced fully Wednesday.

    After missing Week 3 against the Browns, Scott appears ready to return from his one-game absence. He should slide back into his starting role at safety alongside Tre'von Moehrig for Sunday night's game versus Detroit.

  • Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet: Chance to practice Thursday

    Coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday that Charbonnet (knee) may take part in Thursday's practice, which would open a 21-day window in which he can be evaluated and eventually be activated from the reserve/PUP list, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

    Charbonnet suffered a torn ACL in the divisional round of the playoffs back on Jan. 17 and underwent surgery in February, but he's made quick work in his recovery and technically will be eligible to return as soon as Week 5 if his practice window is opened this week. More than likely, the Seahawks will take their time with Charbonnet once he's back on the practice field, but it appears as if he'll be able to suit up for games that matter sooner than later. In the meantime, Jadarian Price will continue to lead the Seahawks backfield, with Emanuel Wilson and George Holani on hand for RB reps as well.

  • Mike Evans WR | SF

    49ers' Mike Evans: No practice Wednesday

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Evans (ribs) won't practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Evans was laboring after taking a big hit from Cardinals safety Budda Baker in the second quarter of this past Sunday's win against Arizona, eventually being ruled out due to a rib injury. Afterward, Evans was diagnosed with a strained rib, but Shanahan also relayed to Vic Tafur of The Athletic on Wednesday that the wide receiver "may" practice later this week. Logging some on-field work Thursday and/or Friday seemingly will give Evans a chance to play Week 4 against the Broncos, but his upcoming availability remains up in the air.

  • Mike Jackson CB | CAR

    Panthers' Mike Jackson: Undergoes surgery

    Head coach Dave Canales said Wednesday that Jackson (groin) underwent core-muscle surgery and will be sidelined about eight weeks, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    The Panthers are in a code-red situation at cornerback after both starters, Jackson and Jaycee Horn (quadriceps), suffered significant injuries against Cleveland in Week 3. Ahead of a date with Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams on national television Sunday night, Carolina will be relying on Will Lee, Akayleb Evans and Chau Smith-Wade to cover the snaps.

  • Lamar Jackson QB | BAL

    Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Nursing minor injury

    Ravens head coach Jesse Minter said that Jackson is dealing with "something small" and was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Jackson wasn't known to be nursing an injury during or coming out of this past Sunday's 34-31 win over the Cowboys in Brazil, as he played every snap in the contest while accounting for two touchdowns, 186 passing yards and 50 rushing yards in the victory. The Ravens will post their first Week 4 injury report later Wednesday, when the nature of Jackson's health concern will be revealed. Given Minter's comments, whatever issue Jackson is dealing with isn't expected to keep him from playing Sunday versus the Titans.

  • Chargers' Brenen Thompson: Idle Thursday

    Thompson (quadriceps) did not practice Wednesday, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.

    Thompson didn't practice last week and missed Sunday's loss against the Bills. With the rookie sidelined last week, Marquez Valdes-Scantling played three offensive snaps as the lightly-used fourth receiver behind Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and Tre' Harris.

  • Xavier Legette WR | CAR

    Panthers' Xavier Legette: Listed as DNP on Wednesday

    Legette (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Coach Dave Canales labeled Legette as week-to-week headed into Sunday night's game against the Lions. With Jalen Coker (quad) also dinged up, the Panthers could again be looking at giving Brycen Tremayne and John Metchie considerable playing time alongside Tetairoa McMillan in Detroit. Legette has a 2-64-0 receiving line on six targets across two games this season.
