Rams TE Colby Parkinson (rib) missed practice for a second straight day on Thursday. Parkinson was injured in the third quarter of Sunday's win over the Raiders before returning to that game.

Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Love missed the last two games with the ankle injury before returning to practice this week.
| Footballguys view: Love has missed time, and the Cardinals are wisely being cautious with their star rookie. He's set to return this week, but a full participation on Friday would make us feel a lot better about his status. |

Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub expressed rather emphatically on Thursday that K Harrison Butker is Kansas City's kicker despite his struggles and the team signing K Justin Tucker. Tucker, who hasn't played in the NFL since 2024, was signed to the Chiefs' practice squad.

Seahawks rookie RB Jadarian Price was a limited participant in practice on Thursday, the team said. Price, who is on injured reserve with a chest injury, was designated to return to practice earlier on Thursday.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Charbonnet was ruled out for last Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet was close to returning last week, but the team kept him out of action against the Chiefs. This week, Charbonnet is trending to play. Rookie first-round pick Jadarian Price is also practicing. With the game against the Bears on Monday, Fantasy GMs won't have clarity until Saturday... and we're hoping things are a bit more clear at the time. |

Packers WR Matthew Golden is active for Thursday night's Week 8 game against the Panthers after being listed as questionable. Golden had been dealing with a shoulder injury.

Chiefs rookie CB Mansoor Delane was added to the injury report on Thursday and did not participate in practice because of a shoulder injury. The report indicates Delane injured the shoulder in Wednesday's practice. He dealt with a shoulder injury in training camp and aggravated it in Week 1.

The Lions won't limit RB Jahmyr Gibbs' heavy workload. 'He probably wants more,' the report quotes. Gibbs is on pace for 471 touches this season, the most in the NFL since James Wilder had 492 touches for Tampa Bay in 1984.

Eagles DT Jalen Carter appeared on the team's injury report on Thursday with an abdomen injury. Carter had been playing through a hairline wrist fracture earlier this season before practicing in full in mid-October. The Eagles play at the Commanders on Sunday night.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was 'still sidelined' on Philadelphia's Thursday injury report, ahead of Sunday night's game against the Commanders.
| Footballguys view: Smith was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday after missing Monday night's game against the Cowboys. Two days of "DNP" is not a good sign, but practicing on Friday might make Smith limited in Week 8. Come back to see what Smith can do on Friday. |

Commanders WR Treylon Burks (foot) did not practice on Thursday.

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday after not practicing to start the week. Denver hosts the Chiefs on Sunday.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins indicated on Thursday that he believes his reduced workload is Denver trying to keep him fresh rather than him losing the starting job. Dobbins said rookie RB Jonah Coleman's uptick in work came when the Broncos were winning late and that all he cares about is winning. He added that if he wasn't getting carries and Denver was losing, "shit, I'm gonna be mad as fuck."
| Footballguys view: Dobbins was salty with reporters on Thursday. He's getting work with Coleman and Harvey in a three-headed RBBC. With Coleman impressing and looking to do more, and with Harvey having the pass-catching role, there may not be much for Dobbins in certain matchups. We've got him as a deep flex play in this current role. |
J.K. Dobbins player page
Cowboys WR George Pickens was limited in practice again on Thursday. He is still expected to play Sunday against the Cardinals. Pickens took a hit to his right shoulder in Monday's win over the Eagles.
Link to storyGeorge Pickens player page
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring/knee) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday, his second straight limited session. Rice hasn't played since tweaking his hamstring in Week 4. The Chiefs visit the Broncos on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Getting Rice back would be huge. He's missed two games and had a bye week to recover from this hamstring/knee problem. The Chiefs offense needs all the help they can get in the passing game. Rice may play against the Broncos, but they're getting All-Pro CB Pat Surtain back for Sunday's game. |
Rashee Rice player page
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson was a full participant in practice on Thursday. It was his second straight full session after he also practiced fully on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Jackson looks like he'll be out there against the Bills. It's a huge mathcup in the AFC, and the Ravens offense gets a huge boost with Jackson back out there. We like him as his normal QB1. |
Lamar Jackson player page
Titans RB Tyjae Spears (knee) did not participate in practice on Thursday. Spears was also absent from practice on Wednesday as Tennessee prepares for Sunday's game at the Bengals.
Link to storyTyjae Spears player page
Jets RB Braelon Allen (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Allen had been limited in Wednesday's session. The Jets host the Raiders on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Allen has been rock solid as the starting back for the Jets. Now that Breece Hall could be returning this week, Allen may go to more of a reserve role. At the very least, we could see the Jets easing Hall back into action. Allen has been too good to go back to just a few touches a game. |
Braelon Allen player page
Jaguars WR Travis Hunter's breakout offensive game against the Texans won't necessarily mean a dramatic and steady increase in his offensive snaps, offensive coordinator Grant Udinski said on Thursday. "That's something that will probably vary week-to-week," Udinski said, adding, "Some weeks, it might be a strong feature of Travis... and then the next game it might only be two or three catches or a couple touches." Hunter played nine offensive snaps in the Week 6 loss to Houston, catching a season-high four passes for 59 yards and a touchdown, while also starting at cornerback and recording an interception. He has played 311 snaps at cornerback and 30 at wide receiver this season, and Udinski said the team will "continue to try to build his route tree."
| Footballguys view: Varying from week to week is not great for Fantasy GMs. Hunter has a ton of athleticism, so he can be seen as a 'what the heck' flex on a weekly basis. |
Travis Hunter player page
Broncos RB RJ Harvey was present for only a portion of the media viewing period at Thursday's practice. Harvey's status on Thursday's injury report will be one to watch, along with those of DT Zach Allen and WR Jaylen Waddle. Denver hosts the Chiefs on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Harvey popped up on the injury report with a knee issue. After not being on the injury report on Wednesday, this is a concern. The team is looking for Jonah Coleman to do more, and JK Dobbins might not yet take a backseat to the rookie. |
RJ Harvey player page
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown was a full participant in practice on Thursday. St. Brown said his ankle is fine and that he just got it stepped on a couple of times last week.
| Footballguys view: It's a huge divisional game for the Lions against the Vikings in Week 8. Upgraded from a "DNP" on Wednesday, St. Brown is on track to play. |
Amon-Ra St. Brown player page
Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (right thumb) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Mayfield was also a full participant on Wednesday. He wore a glove on his dislocated thumb in last Sunday's win over the Panthers. Tampa Bay hosts the Falcons on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Let's see if Mayfield throws it more than 11 times this week. Against the Falcons in Week 8, Mayfield should be a QB2. We like Egbuka in the WR2/flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |
Baker Mayfield player page
Bears RB Kyle Monangai (toe) was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated injury report on Thursday. Monangai also did not practice on Tuesday or Wednesday, when he was seen working on a bike in the weight room. He missed the Bears' Week 7 game against the Patriots with the toe injury.
| Footballguys view: The game is on Monday against the Seahawks, but it looks like Monangai may have to miss another game. D'Andre Swift is the lead back, and he should post RB2 numbers for Fantasy GMs in Week 8. |
Kyle Monangai player page
Jaguars RB LeQuint Allen Jr. was added to the team's injury report on Thursday with a hamstring injury. He was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Browns RB Dylan Sampson (knee) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. He had been limited on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Browns here. Sampson is the change-of-pace back for the team, and he's worth considering as a 'what the heck' flex in PPR formats. |
Dylan Sampson player page
Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs (shoulder) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Gibbs downplayed the injury after practice, saying he was surprised by an alert on his phone listing him as questionable. "Yeah, just got dinged up a little bit, a little shoulder thing, but I'm good, though. I'm straight," Gibbs said. There are no indications the injury will affect his availability against the Vikings on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Gibbs says he's good to go, and Fantasy GMs can start him as per usual. The Vikings defense will throw the kitchen sink at the Lions' offense, but Gibbs could still finish with RB1 production. |

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin Jr. did not practice on Thursday because of a veteran rest day. DT A'Shawn Robinson was also given a rest day. Tampa Bay hosts the Falcons on Sunday.

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) was a limited participant again on Thursday, the Colts' first on-field practice of the week after a walkthrough on Wednesday. Warren, who has missed the last two games, was also limited on Wednesday. TE Drew Ogletree (knee) was limited as well ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Warren has been out of action for a couple of games, but this week he's been limited in two days of practice. Another limited practice on Friday isn't total clarity, but a full participation would make it seem like he's ready to return in Week 8. Stay tuned, and check back on Friday to see what Warren's status is. |
Tyler Warren player page
Jets RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday as the team prepares for its Week 8 game against the Raiders. Hall was also limited on Wednesday after missing last Sunday's game against the Dolphins with the quad injury.
| Footballguys view: Hall was back in action last week, but the team decided to give him one more week of rest. Braelon Allen has been doing a fine job filling in as the lead back. In fact, even when Hall is back at full strength, we should see Allen get more touches than he was previously behind Hall. This dings Hall's fantasy value slightly, and Fantasy GMs will have to adjust to a new role for Allen once Hall is back (perhaps as soon as this week). |
Breece Hall player page
Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka was limited in practice on Thursday. Egbuka, who is working back from a concussion, practiced in a regular, not non-contact, jersey on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Egbuka is working his way through league protocol. If he plays in Week 8 against the Falcons, we like him as a WR2/flex option. |
Emeka Egbuka player page
Vikings RB Aaron Jones Sr. (knee) returned to practice on Thursday. Jones had been held out of practice on Wednesday, head coach Kevin O'Connell said. Jones has been playing through a sprained MCL since Week 2 and has been considered day to day. The Vikings play at the Lions on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Jones is back in action, and that's a good sign for Week 8's game against the Lions. He's working in an RBBC with Jordan Mason, and Fantasy GMs should consider Jones more of a deep flex play in his current role. Mason is more of an RB3/flex play in his current role. Circle back Friday to see if Jones is still on track to play in Week 8. |
Aaron Jones Sr. player page
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Wednesday that the team plans a bigger role for RB Austin Ekeler with RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt on injured reserve. "Now that he's back, we'll need to lean in more, and he's able to handle a bigger workload now," Quinn said. "It's the right play." Ekeler averaged 7.3 yards per carry in his Week 4 return against the Colts but has carried the ball only four times since, and Croskey-Merritt is out for at least the next month.
| Footballguys view: Croskey-Merritt has been dealing with this groin injury all season long, and now he's going to get time to properly heal. That means the Commanders will be looking for guys like Ekeler to do more. Rachaad White rushed seven times for 27 yards in the Commanders' Week 6 loss to the 49ers, adding 30 yards and a touchdown on four receptions. After the Week 7 bye, we'll see if Ekeler gets more work with White in the Commanders' backfield. |
Austin Ekeler player page
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Thursday that he doesn't think WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) will practice that day. Shaheed was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs after suffering the knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Early returns are positive about Shaheed's knee injury according to Macdonald. The Seahawks play on Monday night against the Bears, but we may not have clarity on Shaheed's status until Saturday. He's not been much of a factor this year on offense. |
Rashid Shaheed player page
Falcons RB Brian Robinson Jr. did not practice on Thursday because of a hamstring injury. It was his second straight missed practice, putting his availability for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers in question.
| Footballguys view: Khalil Herbert will get the work as the primary backup to Bijan Robinson is Brian Robinson has to miss another game. Herbert rushed two times for nine yards in the Falcons' Week 7 win over the 49ers. |
Brian Robinson Jr player page
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson walked out of the locker room in street clothes with a backpack on as reporters entered for scheduled media access on Thursday. Henderson was also absent from the beginning of Thursday's practice, Doug Kyed reported. Henderson returned from an ankle injury earlier this month.
| Footballguys view: Henderson is listed as "DNP" for Thursday's practice with an illness designation. That may not keep him out of the game in Week 8, but Fantasy GMs should circle back on Friday. We've got him as a flex play against the Dolphins on Sunday. |
TreVeyon Henderson player page
Bills TE Dalton Kincaid was still wearing a red non-contact jersey at practice on Thursday. Kincaid also wore the non-contact jersey on Wednesday. He left the October 18 game with a rib injury before returning in the fourth quarter.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid had a bye in Week 7 to get right, and he's trending in the right direction. A non-contact jersey is not a great start in back-to-back days of practice this week. Let's see what Friday's injury report reveals about Kincaid's status. |
Dalton Kincaid player page
Seahawks rookie RB Jadarian Price was designated for return to practice on Thursday, as head coach Mike Macdonald said would happen during his Monday press conference. Price, Seattle's first-round pick, has missed four games on injured reserve with a chest injury. Macdonald said it is possible that Price and RB Zach Charbonnet could play in Monday night's Week 8 game against the Bears, but no definitive decision on their availability had been made early in the week.
| Footballguys view: Price could be back sooner rather than later as he's coming back from the chest injury that forced him out the minimum four games. With the return of Zach Charbonnet as well, the Seahawks could be using both backs in an RBBC. When both are active, we'll have Price in the flex range from a fantasy perspective. |
Zach Charbonnet player page
Bills WR DJ Moore (shoulder) practiced in a red non-contact jersey on Thursday. The Bills host the Ravens on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Moore has missed the past two games with this shoulder problem, and the team had a Week 7 bye. He's in a non-contact jersey, but the signs are there for him to play in Week 8. If he does play against the Ravens, we like Moore in the WR2/flex range for Fantasy GMs out there. |
DJ Moore player page
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (ankle/knee) was not seen at practice on Thursday. Brown was also absent during the open locker-room period earlier in the day, which is a change in routine. He has been listed as a limited participant in practices since his return from injured reserve, and the knee injury added to his listing on Wednesday was a new development.
| Footballguys view: Brown was limited on Wednesday, so clearly he's downgraded to a "DNP" on Thursday. That's not a good sign for his availability in Week 8. His status for the game against the Dolphins is unknown, so Fantasy GMs need to circle back on Friday to see if he's at least questionable. |
A.J. Brown player page
There was 'no sign' of Eagles RB Saquon Barkley at Thursday's practice, the team's first practice of the week. Barkley, who is dealing with hamstring and back injuries, was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Barkley is clearly on the wrong side of questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders. The Eagles could be down to Jaydon Blue and Elijah Mitchell at the running back position if Barkley can't play. |
Saquon Barkley player page
Packers CB Keisean Nixon has been listed as questionable for Thursday night's home game against the Panthers with a shoulder injury. The Packers made the late change to their injury report on Thursday.
Link to storyKeisean Nixon player page
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session with what was listed as rest and an ankle injury. Chase's return comes ahead of Sunday's Week 8 game against the Titans.
| Footballguys view: Chase gets some rest in the middle of the week. He's good to go for Week 8, and he's a set-it-and-forget-it WR1 of the highest level (as per usual). |
Ja'Marr Chase player page
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, who has been dealing with an ankle sprain, is practicing again on Thursday. Jackson was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Titans rookie WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) will not practice again on Thursday. Tate also did not practice on Wednesday, putting his status for Sunday's game at the Bengals in question.

Ravens S Kyle Hamilton was back at practice on Thursday. Hamilton walked off the practice field with a brace on his right knee on Wednesday. Baltimore visits the Bills on Sunday.

Ravens LB Roquan Smith was back at practice on Thursday. Smith was not spotted at Wednesday's practice after suffering a knee injury in last Sunday's game against the Bengals. The Ravens play at the Bills in Week 8.

Buccaneers RB Kenny Gainwell has returned to practice on Thursday as he deals with a hip injury. Gainwell suffered the injury in last Sunday's win over the Panthers and was listed as questionable to return in that game. Tampa Bay hosts the Falcons in Week 8 on Sunday.

Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka practiced in a regular jersey rather than a non-contact jersey on Thursday as he works back from a concussion. Egbuka had practiced in a non-contact jersey and was limited on Wednesday. Head coach Todd Bowles called him 'questionable' for Week 8 on Monday.

The Titans have told teams they do not want to trade an offensive player like RB Tony Pollard because they need to figure out who QB Cam Ward is. Ward, a second-year player, has zero touchdown passes in quarters 1-3 this season. Tennessee has already traded DT Jeffery Simmons.
