Saints | Chris Olave limited Thursday with a 'foot' injury Thu Oct 8, 04:16 PM
Saints WR Chris Olave was limited in practice on Thursday with a "foot" injury. Olave returned to practice after not practicing on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Olave's absence Wednesday was listed as a "rest" day. Now, he's got a "foot" problem that popped up. Make sure he's practicing on Friday before starting him as a WR1 against the Vikings in Week 5. |

Chargers | WR Ladd McConkey (foot) did not practice Thursday Thu Oct 8, 03:15 PM
Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot) did not participate in Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: The Chargers are at home to take on the Broncos in Week 5. They do have a bye coming up in Week 7, so McConkey might miss more time just to get closer to 100 percent if he misses Sunday's game. It's a reaggravation of his foot injury, so Jim Harbaugh considers McConkey day-to-day. |

Bills WR DJ Moore arrived at practice on Thursday to watch wide receiver drills from the sidelines. Moore wore a practice jersey but no helmet or other gear and was a non-participant. Head coach Joe Brady offered no specific update on Moore on Thursday but said he'll try "to be able to rock this week." The Bills play at the Rams on Monday night.

Bills | No specific update on DJ Moore, but Brady says he'll try 'to be able to rock this week' Thu Oct 8, 01:47 PM
There was no specific update on Bills WR DJ Moore on Thursday. Head coach Joe Brady said Moore is "going to be able to do everything he can to be able to rock this week." Moore suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday's loss to the Patriots that was not believed to be a long-term issue.
| Footballguys view: The Bills play on Monday night against the Rams in what some are calling a Super Bowl preview. Moore has time to get right, even though he didn't participate in Thursday's practice. Saturday is the big day, which should give us clues as to whether or not Moore is going to play. Stay tuned. |

Bengals | Tee Higgins working on rehab field Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:43 PM
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was working on the rehab field during the open portion of practice on Thursday. Higgins (groin/neck) did not practice on Wednesday. The Bengals play at the Dolphins on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Higgins has not practiced yet this week, but let's make sure to circle back on Friday to gauge his participation level. Ja'Marr Chase is practicing, but he's still in the NFL concussion protocol. While Chase may be closer to playing in Week 5 than originally thought, it seems like Higgins is on the wrong side of questionable. |

Giants | Malik Nabers (knee) participating in open portion of Thursday's practice Thu Oct 8, 01:38 PM
Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) was participating in the open portion of practice on Thursday. Nabers did not practice on Wednesday, when he said his knee was "more sore than usual" and "we'll see" about his availability for Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Nabers was sore earlier in the week, but a limited participation practice on Thursday is a good sign. Up against the Commanders in Week 5, we've got Nabers in the WR2 range in terms of projections. |

Bengals | Ja'Marr Chase back at practice after concussion protocol Thu Oct 8, 01:36 PM
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase returned to practice on Thursday. Chase has been in the concussion protocol and did not practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: He's not out of the woods just yet, but this is a step in the right direction for Chase. It seems like he could be on track to play against the Dolphins in Week 5, barring any setbacks. Chase is one of those elite-level players who we play if he suits up, even if he's not quite 100 percent. A full practice on Friday would make us feel more confident. Stay tuned. |

Adonai Mitchell absent from practice again Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:02 PM
Jets WR Adonai Mitchell was not seen at practice on Thursday. Mitchell has been called "week-to-week."
| Footballguys view: Mitchell has missed the last two games with a finger injury. Isaiah Williams gets more work with Mitchell out again, and that makes him a WR5/deep flex play in PPR formats this week against the Browns. |
Adonai Mitchell player page
Ravens | Rashod Bateman (shoulder) practicing Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:00 PM
Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (shoulder) was among several Ravens back practicing on Thursday. Bateman was limited in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Bateman was a full participant on Thursday, a good sign for his availability. It's likely to be Tyler Huntley at quarterback against the Falcons, and that limits the fantasy value of anyone in this passing game. |
Rashod Bateman player page
Ravens | Zay Flowers (foot) back practicing Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:00 PM
Ravens WR Zay Flowers (foot) was among several Ravens back practicing on Thursday. Flowers was limited in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Flowers has two limited sessions this week, so he's likely going to play in Week 5. However, Tyler Huntley is at quarterback (most likely), so that dings his fantasy potential. We like Flowers as a low-end WR1 against the Falcons on Sunday night. |

Texans | Tank Dell 'continues to ramp up' in second practice back, 'going well' Thu Oct 8, 12:32 PM
Texans WR Tank Dell continued to ramp up on Thursday in his second practice back. "It's going well," the report said. Dell was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday, opening his 21-day practice window, and was limited in Wednesday's practice as he works back from a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: The practice window is open, so Dell is getting in the work to see if/when he can return to the field. Fantasy GMs in deeper leagues should feel free to add Dell on waivers, but even when healthy we only see him producing as a "what the heck" flex. |

Commanders | Terry McLaurin (hamstring) not out for warmups Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:20 PM
Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (hamstring) was not on the field during warmups at Thursday's practice. McLaurin also missed practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: McLaurin is unlikely to suit up in Week 5 against the Giants. However, Stefon Diggs (hamstring) should be out there even though he's dealing with his own injury. The Commanders have a game against the 49ers on Monday Night Football in Week 6, so missing Week 5 with an eye on a return for that game could be in their plans. We'll see what McLaurin can do next week in practice. |

Steelers | Michael Pittman Jr. re-injured foot, expected to miss 'multiple weeks' Thu Oct 8, 11:43 AM
Steelers WR Michael Pittman Jr. re-injured his foot and is now expected to miss multiple weeks, head coach Mike McCarthy said on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Pittman was limited in Wednesday's practice with the foot injury and was seen on a scooter and later wearing a boot on his left foot/ankle. The team could put Pittman on IR, which would sideline him for at least four games. Without Pittman, we'll see more Roman Wilson and Germie Bernard when the Steelers go to the air. |

Bengals | Colbie Young limited in return to practice, says 'possibility' he plays Sunday Wed Oct 7, 08:19 PM
Bengals rookie WR Colbie Young (knee) practiced in a limited fashion on Wednesday for the first time since getting hurt on the first snap of his first NFL start at Pittsburgh 10 days ago. Young said there is a possibility he will be back for Sunday's game at Miami, adding, "It's been feeling great."

Neither of the Chargers' starting offensive tackles practiced on Wednesday either.

Texans | Nico Collins limited Wednesday for rest Wed Oct 7, 05:27 PM
Texans WR Nico Collins was limited in practice on Wednesday, listed with a rest designation.
| Footballguys view: Collins caught seven passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. It was great to see him out there for the Texans again, and if he's good for the game against the Titans, we like him as a low-end WR1. |
Nico Collins player page
Colts | WR Keenan Allen (groin) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Colts WR Keenan Allen (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Allen's groin injury kept him out of Week 4. It seems like he's trending towards playing against the Steelers in Week 5. We like the veteran receiver as a 'what the heck' flex, but only in super deep PPR formats this week. |
Keenan Allen player page
Ravens | WR Zay Flowers (foot) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Ravens WR Zay Flowers (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: The Ravens have the Falcons on Sunday Night Football in Week 5. Flowers' status is one to watch due to the late start. We feel he should play, and if Flowers is out there, then he can produce like a low-end WR1 for Fantasy GMs. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant (ankle) not spotted at Wednesday practice Wed Oct 7, 04:40 PM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant (ankle) was not spotted during the viewing period of Wednesday's practice, Denver's first session of the week ahead of its Week 5 game at the Chargers.
| Footballguys view: Without Bryant against the Chargers in Week 5, we should see more from Troy Franklin as the team's no.3 option at the wide receiver position. Franklin has 'what the heck' flex appeal in crazy deep leagues. Bryant avoided the worst-case scenario on his MRI, but is still dealing with an ankle sprain suffered in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. |

Adonai Mitchell held out of practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 04:34 PM
Jets WR Adonai Mitchell did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Browns.
| Footballguys view: Mitchell was ruled out for Week 4 and was described as 'week-to-week' earlier Wednesday. Like Breece Hall, a DNP on Wednesday is not a great sign for Mitchell's availability against the Browns. Garrett Wilson is the top target, but without Mitchell we'll see more from Isaiah Williams like we did a week ago. Williams is worth a 'what the heck' flex play but only in deeper leagues. |
Adonai Mitchell player page
Dolphins | Chris Bell (knee) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 04:33 PM
Dolphins rookie WR Chris Bell (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Bell caught 0-of-3 targets in the Dolphins' Week 4 loss to the Vikings. It was a disastrous outing to be sure, but there's some deep 'what the heck' flex appeal with Bell out there against the Bengals. |

Chargers | Ladd McConkey works off to the side with a trainer Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 04:33 PM
Chargers WR Ladd McConkey was off to the side working with a trainer during the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media. McConkey is dealing with a foot injury. WRs Brenen Thompson and Quentin Johnston were also working off to the side.
| Footballguys view: It's a start for McConkey, but a limited practice by Friday is what we're focused on. Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh said earlier this week that McConkey was considered day-to-day after aggravating his foot injury in Week 4 against the Seahawks. The Chargers are at home with an AFC West battle against the Broncos on Sunday. |

Bengals | Tee Higgins among six Bengals out of Wednesday practice Wed Oct 7, 04:31 PM
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was one of six Cincinnati players who missed practice on Wednesday. Higgins was considered 'day-to-day' on Monday with an injury suffered in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Higgins has a neck/adductor designation. With multiple injuries to deal with, Higgins is likely out of Week 5's game against Miami. We'll see if Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) can clear the NFL protocol at some point this week. |

Nabers said "we'll see" when asked whether it will affect his ability to play Sunday against the Commanders, but added that he usually gets better as the week progresses. Nabers spent time in the rehab area during Wednesday's practice.
