Green Bay Packers wide receivers Jayden Reed (ankle) and Christian Watson (ankle) were both limited during Thursday's practice. Both players head into Week 8 with injuries, but luckily they aren't considered to be major issues. Reed has been reliable throughout most of the season, but is coming off his worst performance of the season. He should be able to bounce back against the Jacksonville Jaguars secondary in Week 8. Watson has been quiet this season, but does have big-play ability. If active, Reed is a must-start while Watson is a desperation boom-or-bust choice.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) didn't suit up for Thursday's practice session. Meyers was limited on Wednesday, but didn't practice at all on Thursday. It's possible that it was a rest day for Meyers, but that was not confirmed. This doesn't look good considering Meyers hasn't played in two weeks due to this ankle issue. The Raiders could desperately use Meyers with Davante Adams no longer with the team. If healthy, Meyers is the No. 1 option in the passing game and could carve out WR3 value against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (shoulder) was sidelined for the second straight day during practice. This is not good to see after Dissly's eight-catch performance in Week 7. Now, Dissly is in danger of missing Week 8 after back-to-back absences. If active, Dissly sneaks onto the TE2 radar against the New Orleans Saints. Otherwise, Hayden Hurst (groin) could be asked to take on a bigger role after he returned to practice on Thursday. However, Hurst hasn't done enough this season to earn the trust of fantasy managers.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) was limited during Thursday's practice session. Levis continues to deal with an AC joint sprain that he suffered in Week 4. It's worth noting that the issue is on his throwing shoulder, which could explain his poor play in Week 6. Mason Rudolph started last week and was able to hold his own on the field. Rodolph threw for 215 yards with a touchdown and an interception in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. He'll likely start against the Detroit Lions this weekend, but won't be a recommended streaming option.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. The organization is hopeful that Spears can get back on the field this week after sitting out in Week 7. If healthy, Spears figures to continue being the primary backup to Tony Pollard. Spears has struggled with only one game with over 30 rushing yards this season. Pollard has taken over the bulk of the carries in the backfield which makes Spears a tough option to trust heading into a difficult matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) was absent during Thursday's practice session. This could put the Titans in a bad spot heading into the Week 8 matchup against the Detroit Lions. They traded veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins and fellow receiver Treylon Burks (knee) has been placed on the injured reserve. The absence of Ridley would mean Tyler Boyd and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine would be the primary targets in the passing game. Ridley has been a disappointment this season with 12 receptions for 183 yards heading into Week 8. However, he could have some streaming appeal with the Titans thin at wide receiver.

Denver Broncos WR Josh Reynolds (arm, finger, head) was reportedly shot in the arm and in the back of the head in Denver Friday, Oct. 18, but the Broncos said the injuries were minor and that Reynolds received treatment for the injuries.

Buffalo Bills WR Amari Cooper said he believes he is ready for a bigger role in the passing game in Week 8.

Fantasy Spin: Cooper was productive in his first game with the Bills and should see a few more targets this week. His fantasy value was boosted by the trade, and he should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quadriceps) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Waddle could pick up a questionable tag on Friday's final injury report, but he seems to be on the right side of questionable for Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals. Tyreek Hill (foot) was added to the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice, so Miami's top two wideouts have injury concerns heading into the game against the Cardinals. The good news is that the 25-year-old Waddle should be good to play and will have a much higher fantasy ceiling and floor as a WR2 with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) tracking towards making his return from Injured Reserve. In addition, Arizona's defense has surrendered the sixth-most half-PPR fantasy points to receivers in seven games.

Seattle Seahawks CB Tre Brown (ankle), DT Cameron Young (knee) and DE Michael Morris (ankle) did not participate in practice Thursday, Oct. 24. CB Nehemiah Pritchett (ankle), OT George Fant (knee), OT Abraham Lucas (knee) and CB Riq Woolen (ankle) were limited during practice. DE Leonard Williams (knee), S Julian Love (knee, quadriceps), TE Brady Russell (shoulder), LB Boye Mafe (knee) and S Jerrick Reed (knee) fully participated in practice.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) was upgraded to a full practice session on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. As a full practice participant, Tagovailoa can now meet with an independent neurological consultant for full clearance from the NFL's concussion protocol before Sunday's Week 8 game against the Arizona Cardinals. Meanwhile, Tyler Huntley (shoulder) missed a second straight practice on Thursday. Nothing is official yet, but all signs point to the 26-year-old Tagovailoa coming off Injured Reserve and playing this weekend for the first time since suffering his latest concussion in Week 2. Not only is Tua's matchup against Arizona a good one -- they've allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to QBs in 2024 -- but his return should do wonders for the fantasy value of both receivers Tyreek Hill (foot) and Jaylen Waddle (quadriceps).

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (foot) was limited during practice Thursday, Oct. 24.

Fantasy Spin: Kittle should be ready to play this week, but fantasy players can check on his official status over the next few days. He should see a good amount of targets if he plays and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers DT Kevin Givens (groin) and PK Jake Moody (ankle) did not participate in practice Thursday, Oct. 24. S George Odum (knee), DE Nick Bosa (elbow) and WR Chris Conley (ankle) were limited during practice. OT Trent Williams (non-injury) fully participated in practice.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (illness) returned to practice on Thursday in a limited showing after being listed as a DNP on Wednesday with an illness that cropped up last weekend. Walker was listed as questionable in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons but played and saw 14 carries for 69 yards and a touchdown while adding two catches for 24 yards and another score. The 24-year-old is the RB8 in half-PPR fantasy scoring through five games played and has had a nose for the end zone in 2024, scoring seven times in his five contests. He should be fine to play in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills and should be considered a must-start RB1. Buffalo has been a friendly matchup to opposing RBs in 2024, allowing the sixth-most half-PPR points per game to the position.

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) stayed limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Fant should be fine to play this Sunday against the visiting Buffalo Bills and could once again see increased targets if top wideout DK Metcalf (knee) is unable to suit up. The 26-year-old tight end caught all four of his targets for a season-high 65 yards in the team's Week 7 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in a game in which Metcalf was injured and did not return. The Bills have been a middle-of-the-pack matchup for opposing tight ends in 2024, allowing 40 catches, 316 yards and one touchdown to the position in seven games. Fant now has three games with 60-plus receiving yards in 2024 and should be treated as a TE2 with upside in fantasy if Metcalf is inactive on Sunday.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) put in a second straight limited practice this week on Thursday. Mason suffered an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder in Week 6 but was active for the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, handling 14 carries for 58 yards while catching both his targets for 11 yards. All signs point to him being active for a Sunday night primetime showdown against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8, where Mason will once again a must-start RB1 for fantasy managers. He'll have the perfect opportunity for a big game against Dallas' beat-up defense that has allowed the third-most half-PPR fantasy points to opposing RBs through six games in 2024. Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) is eyeing his season debut after the Niners' Week 9 bye, so Mason may only have this weekend before his fantasy value takes a huge hit.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (ankle) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday due to a right-ankle sprain. The 49ers have already ruled Moody out for the Week 8 contest on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. The team has a bye upcoming in Week 9, so hopefully Moody will be ready to return to regular kicking duties for Week 10 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His replacement, Matthew Wright, was injured in his first game and subsequently placed on Injured Reserve. With Moody out again this weekend, San Fran will roll with second-year kicker Anders Carlson for a second straight week after he made both of his field-goal attempts and missed an extra point in the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. At best, Carlson is a streaming option in deeper fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Derius Davis (hamstring), TE Will Dissly (shoulder) and LB Denzel Perryman (toe) did not participate in practice Thursday, Oct. 24. LB Joey Bosa (hip), WR DJ Chark Jr. (groin), CB Kristian Fulton (hamstring), TE Hayden Hurst (groin) and CB Ja'Sir Taylor (leg) were limited during practice. LB Khalil Mack (non-injury) fully participated in practice.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (hip) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Jennings missed his first game of the year in the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and is now trending toward missing a second straight game this Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys unless he's able to practice on Friday. It's bad timing for the 49ers, with Brandon Aiyuk suffering a season-ending knee injury last Sunday. The 27-year-old Jennings was a popular addition off the waiver wire this week in fantasy managers despite his injury, as he'll have added opportunities the rest of the year as the WR2 in San Fran behind Deebo Samuel Sr. (illness). If Jennings misses another game in Week 8, both rookies Ricky Pearsall and Jacob Cowing could start in three-wide sets if Samuel is cleared to play.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (illness, wrist) returned to the practice field on Thursday and was listed as limited after being listed as a DNP on Wednesday. Receiver Chris Conley (ankle) was also limited for the second straight day. Samuel put up a donut for his fantasy managers in the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs when he played just four offensive snaps. The 28-year-old was later hospitalized with pneumonia, but he's feeling better this week and is trending toward a return on Sunday night for a showdown against the Dallas Cowboys. With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) out for the season and Jauan Jennings (hip) trending toward missing a second straight game, Samuel should see heavy volume in Week 8 if he's active. Check back on Friday to see if Samuel carries an injury designation into Sunday's game.
