49ers DE Nick Bosa returned to practice as a limited participant on Wednesday after missing the team's past five games with a left calf injury he suffered while warming up in practice for Week 3.

Bosa, who tore his right ACL in a September 2025 game against the Cardinals, said the calf injury "took a little longer than I expected, but I don't even think about it anymore."

Rams DE Myles Garrett returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day window to return from injured reserve after missing seven games following left knee surgery. Coach Sean McVay said Garrett would take half the amount of full reps on Wednesday and would be evaluated each day before the team determines when he will be activated for a game. "A lot of it is going to be predicated on his communication and feedback to us, and then ultimately being able to see that, hopefully the expectation is he's ready to rock this week," McVay said ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. Garrett went through individual drills with the edge rushers during the portion of practice open to reporters.

Packers DE Micah Parsons said on Wednesday that he will not play 50-60 snaps as he did before when he returns to games. "My conditioning right now is probably the worst it's been in my career," Parsons said. "Am I gonna go out there and play 50, 60 snaps how I was doing before? Absolutely not. It's just not realistic. My body's not there yet. I don't even think my knee's built for that yet. I didn't go through training camp." Asked whether he would be "the All-Pro Micah" this year, Parsons said, "Probably not until later, after I go through all my phases and things like that."

Packers DE Micah Parsons will practice on Wednesday for the first time in almost 11 months, head coach Matt LaFleur said. Parsons' 21-day window to be activated from the PUP list is now open.
| Footballguys view: LaFleur said Parsons is a "full go" to do individual work at practice. That's not a lock to put him back on the field in Week 9, but obviously Parsons is getting close. The Packers want him healthy for a Super Bowl run, so expect Parsons to get eased back into the lineup when he does return. |

Falcons DE James Pearce Jr. returned to walkthrough on Wednesday after missing the first eight games of the season due to suspension. Head coach Kevin Stefanski said the Falcons are pleased with where Pearce is in terms of being football ready, having worked out with the team's strength staff for the last month under his suspension rules. Stefanski added the team will use the rest of the week to determine how many snaps Pearce gets Sunday against the Bengals.

Cowboys rookie DE Malachi Lawrence suffered an ankle injury in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Cardinals and could miss multiple weeks, head coach Brian Schottenheimer said on Monday. "Malachi has [an injury] that might be a little bit longer... Looks like it could be a few weeks," Schottenheimer said, adding that the team will do more testing and that Lawrence's injury is "a little different" from the ankle injuries to TE Jake Ferguson and CB Joey Porter Jr. Lawrence, who had taken over a starting outside linebacker job over the last three games, played 38 snaps with four quarterback pressures on Sunday and has 13 tackles, three quarterback hits and a sack in eight games. With Lawrence set to miss time, the Cowboys' OLB room includes Rashan Gary, Donovan Ezeiruaku, James Houston, Von Miller and Tyrus Wheat.

Raiders DE Maxx Crosby wants to remain with the team, has no desire to leave and is "definitely not forcing his way out." Raiders GM John Spytek is still sure to get calls about Crosby over the next 10 days before the trade deadline, leaving open the possibility of another blockbuster deal.
| Footballguys view: Pelissero points out that Crosby does not want to leave the Raiders, but they could get quite a bit for him if there's another team willing to pay the price. A failed offseason trade with the Ravens fell through, so Crosby sees it as a sign he should stay with the Raiders. Before a failed physical designation, the Ravens were happy to send two first-round picks to the Raiders for Crosby. Raiders GM John Spytek could be looking for a similar deal. |

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday night's Week 7 game against the Cowboys. Smith did not practice Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
| Footballguys view: No practices for three days pretty much summed up Smith's availability. The team will be without Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) as well in Week 7. That means guys like Makai Lemon, Hollywood Brown, and Darius Cooper could be tasked with doing more. We may see TE Dallas Goedert out there on Monday night, and that will greatly help QB Tanner McKee with all these wide receiver injuries. |

Rookies Zion Young, who has played 35% of the defensive snaps, and Ethan Burke are in line for more playing time, with Minter saying he is "excited to see those guys potentially get more snaps." "Moving forward, I'll have more opportunity to rush the passer," Young said. "I'm most definitely going to try and fill that role knowing Tavius is gone."
