Cardinals QB Sam Bradford (pectoral) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Titans QB Blaine Gabbert (concussion, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (illness) took full practice reps again Friday.

Broncos QB Case Keenum (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Keenum opened the season with 329/3 against the Seahawks before a poor outing against the Raiders (which was saved by a rushing touchdown) and another bad game against the Ravens. He should bounce back against the Chiefs, who are last in the league in QB aFPA and have yielded 8.0 YPA and eight passing touchdowns through three weeks.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (groin) took full practice reps all week. Luck is good to go for a home matchup against a struggling Houston defense.

Titans QB Marcus Mariota (right elbow) took full practice reps all week. Mariota will start in Week 4.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. Rodgers will continue to play through the knee injury.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Roethlisberger should be fine to face the Ravens.

Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill (right shoulder) took full practice reps all week. Tannehill should be good to go for a nice matchup against the Patriots. Tannehill should be in a position to throw the ball more than he has so far this season (24.7 pass attempts through three weeks). He’s been coolly efficient in leading the Dolphins to a 3-0 start, posting 230/2 against the Titans, 168/2 (while adding 44 rushing yards) against the Jets and 289/3 against the Raiders. This is not a bad spot against the Patriots, who are No. 24 in QB aFPA. The last time Tannehill played in Foxboro (back in 2016), he completed 32-of-45 passes for 389 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions, while adding 35 yards as a rusher.

Browns QB Tyrod Taylor (concussion, back, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson (hamstring) took full practice reps again Friday. No worries here. It looks like Wilson will get Doug Baldwin back this week.

Eagles RB Jay Ajayi (back) took full practice reps again Friday. Ajayi is a go for Week 4. The Eagles indicated they wanted to expand his workload, but that was before the back injury.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (thigh) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Bernard should be fine to play through the thigh injury. The Falcons have yielded a ton of receptions to opposing running backs, and that should lead to a big game for Bernard.

49ers RB Matt Breida (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps Friday and is questionable for Week 4. Breida was able to finish last week’s game so he’s probably going to be able to play in Week 4, though the limited Friday practice is worrisome. He says he’ll be a game-time decision, which is an issue since the 49ers play late on Sunday. If he’s able to play, he should see an uptick in targets with C.J. Beathard under center. Beathard targeted Carlos Hyde and Breida on more than 30% of his pass attempts in his six starts last season.

Seahawks RB Chris Carson (hip, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Carson is questionable but should be able to play through the hip injury.

Eagles RB Corey Clement (quadricep, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. Clement seems iffy for Week 4. If he’s out, Wendell Smallwood will back up Jay Ajayi.

Titans RB David Fluellen (groin, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4.

Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee, out) took limited practice reps again Friday and is out for Week 4. Tevin Coleman should continue to see the vast majority of running back touches in the Atlanta backfield. He’s a solid RB1 against the Bengals this week.

Dolphins RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) took limited practice reps Friday. Kamara was removed from the injury report so he will be fine to play through the knee injury.

Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch (shoulder) took limited practice reps all week. Lynch should be fine to play through the shoulder injury.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Mack may be able to return this week. Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines haven’t impressed in the two games that Mack missed, so if he can play, he may be in for a large workload. The Colts play early on Sunday.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (rib, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. McCoy expects to return to face the Packers in Week 4. He’s a volume play in Green Bay.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Gio Bernard turned 17 touches into 86 yards and a touchdown in Week 3.

49ers RB Alfred Morris (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. He could see a big workload if he’s active and Matt Breida is out.

Bills RB Marcus Murphy (rib, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (abdomen, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 4.

Falcons RB Ito Smith (ribs) took limited practice reps all week.

Eagles RB Darren Sproles (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Giants RB Jonathan Stewart (foot, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. He was placed on IR so Wayne Gallman will back up Saquon Barkley.

Chiefs RB Spencer Ware (knee) took full practice reps again Friday.

Chargers RB Derek Watt (thumb) took full practice reps all week.

Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Chargers WR Keenan Allen (knee, tooth, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. Hopefully we get more information regarding Allen’s status because the Chargers play last on Sunday. If he has to sit, look for Mike Williams and Tyrell Williams to pick up the slack.

Dolphins WR Danny Amendola (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (nose) took full practice reps all week. Anderson should be fine to play through the nose injury, but his role in the offense is the biggest concern. We need to see more targets headed his way before we can recommend putting him back in the starting lineup.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (knee, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. Baldwin is questionable but Pete Carroll indicated that he’s expected to play. If he’s able to play, consider him a fantasy WR2.

Cowboys WR Cole Beasley (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Chargers WR Travis Benjamin (foot, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Ravens WR John Brown (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. He has at least 86 yards and/or a touchdown in three straight games and is averaging 7.7 targets per contest.

Texans WR Sammie Coates (hamstring) took limited practice reps all week.

Packers WR Randall Cobb (hamstring, questionable) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is questionable for Week 4. This was a midweek downgrade, so it’s worrisome. If he’s out, Geronimo Allison and Marquez Valdes-Scantling would likely pick up the slack. Allison would likely kick to the slot where he’d have a nice matchup with Taron Johnson.

Giants WR Stacy Coley (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4.

Texans WR Keke Coutee (hamstring) took limited practice reps all week.

Jets WR Quincy Enunwa (back) took full practice reps all week. Enunwa should be fine to play through the back injury.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. Fitzgerald should play through the injury but the Cardinals play late, so owners need to be on their toes on Sunday morning.

Texans WR Will Fuller (hamstring) took limited practice reps all week. Fuller was removed from the injury report while his teammate DeAndre Hopkins is listed as questionable so he seems to be the healthier of the two right now. He has been on fire in his games with Deshaun Watson under center.

Saints WR Ted Ginn (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Ginn should be able to continue to play through the knee injury.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (quadricep) took full practice reps again Friday. Goodwin will play this week. He was targeted on 13.4% of C.J. Beathard’s pass attempts and accounted for 22.9% of his passing yardage in six games last season.

Patriots WR Josh Gordon (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Gordon should be able to make his New England debut but his snaps will likely be limited as he continues to learn the offense.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (pelvis) took full practice reps again Friday. Green is good to go to face a decimated Falcons defense.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (thumb, ankle, hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery (shoulder, questionable) missed practice again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. Jeffery’s shoulder seems ready but he missed a couple of days of practice with an illness. We’d like to see a game of full usage before recommending him as a fantasy start. The Eagles play early on Sunday.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (calf) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Jones posted 5-96 on six targets playing through the calf injury in Week 3.

Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) took full practice reps all week. Landry should continue to play through the knee injury. He has a great matchup with Oakland slot corner Leon Hall.

Giants WR Cody Latimer (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Eagles WR Jordan Matthews (hamstring) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Titans WR Rishard Matthews (not injury related) was removed from the injury report Friday. Matthews left the team, which should open up snaps and targets for Taywan Taylor, whose role has been growing in recent weeks.

Saints WR Cameron Meredith (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Meredith caught a touchdown on one target against the Falcons, but played 43% of the snaps, which was the third-most among the New Orleans receivers after Michael Thomas and Ted Ginn.

Bears WR Anthony Miller (shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (quadricep, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. Parker should be able to play through the quad injury, but this looks like a late-week downgrade. He played 75% of the snaps in Week 3 and saw three targets. He’s a deep sleeper if he plays against the Patriots. The Dolphins may have to throw more this week.

Jets WR Charone Peake (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Jets WR Terrelle Pryor (ankle, groin) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (abdomen) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Smith-Schuster is good to go. He has three straight games with at least 116 yards receiving.

Lions WR Golden Tate (hip, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. Tate’s addition is a bit worrisome but we are still expecting him to play against the Cowboys. Detroit plays early on Sunday.

Cardinals WR Chad Williams (illness) took full practice reps again Friday.

Cowboys WR Terrance Williams (not injury related) missed practice Friday.

Broncos TE Jake Butt (knee) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday. He tore his ACL and is out for the year. Jeff Heuerman likely sees the most snaps at tight end going forward.

Bills TE Charles Clay (shoulder, hip, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice Thursday and is questionable for Week 4.

Bills TE Jason Croom (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4.

Dolphins TE A.J. Derby (foot, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Browns TE Seth DeValve (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (hip, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Eric Ebron (shoulder, knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Don’t hesitate to dial up Ebron (vs. HOU) again. He didn’t do much last week (5-33) but he played 88% of the snaps and saw 11 targets.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) took full practice reps all week. Eifert’s role in the offense seems to be increasing. He posted 6-74 on eight targets in Week 3 and has a good matchup with a banged up Falcons defense.

Giants TE Evan Engram (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Engram is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with an MCL sprain. Rhett Ellison will absorb most of his snaps and is a decent desperation option at the position. Sterling Shepard is probably the biggest beneficiary.

Packers TE Jimmy Graham (knee) took limited practice reps again Friday. Graham was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (achilles) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Gronk should be fine to play this week, but keep an eye out for more news this weekend. Thankfully, the Patriots play early on Sunday.

Chiefs TE Demetrius Harris (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday.

Patriots TE Jacob Hollister (chest, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Ravens TE Hayden Hurst (foot, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Hurst is working his way back from injury. If he plays this week, he’ll probably be limited.

Bengals TE Tyler Kroft (finger) took full practice reps again Friday.

Lions TE Michael Roberts (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Jaguars TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins (core muscle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. ASJ is good to go to face his old team.

Jets TE Neal Sterling (concussion, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Cardinals K Phil Dawson (not injury related) missed practice Friday.

Jaguars K Josh Lambo (right hip) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. It looks like Lambo is good to go to kick against the Jets.

Titans K Ryan Succop (left knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Succop should be fine to face the Eagles.

Cardinals QB Sam Bradford (pectoral) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Titans QB Blaine Gabbert (concussion) missed practice again Thursday.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (illness) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Broncos QB Case Keenum (knee) took full practice reps Thursday. Keenum opened the season with 329/3 against the Seahawks before a poor outing against the Raiders (which was saved by a rushing touchdown) and another bad game against the Ravens. He should bounce back against the Chiefs, who are last in the league in QB aFPA and have yielded 8.0 YPA and eight passing touchdowns through three weeks.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (groin) took full practice reps again Thursday. The full practice indicates that Luck will play in Week 4.

Titans QB Marcus Mariota (right elbow) took full practice reps again Thursday. Mariota will start in Week 4.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (knee) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Rodgers will continue to play through the knee injury.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Roethlisberger will be fine to face the Ravens.

Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill (right shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday. No worries here.

Browns QB Tyrod Taylor (concussion, back) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice.

Eagles RB Jay Ajayi (back) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. The news is encouraging, but Ajayi is no sure thing for Week 4. If he’s out, Corey Clement and Wendell Smallwood will split the work with Clement in a lead role. If he does play, he should return to lead back touches.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (thigh) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Bernard should be fine to play through the thigh injury. He’s been very productive when he receives RB1-type touches.

49ers RB Matt Breida (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Breida was able to finish last week’s game so he’s probably going to be able to play in Week 4. He should see an uptick in targets with C.J. Beathard under center. Beathard targeted Carlos Hyde and Breida on more than 30% of his pass attempts in his six starts last season.

Seahawks RB Chris Carson (hip) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Carson had a huge workload in Week 3 and seems likely that he’ll lead the Seahawks in touches again in Week 4.

Eagles RB Corey Clement (quadricep) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps. Clement may be able to play, but it looks like Jay Ajayi may return for Week 4, and that would put Clement in a backup role.

Titans RB David Fluellen (groin) missed practice again Thursday.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Fournette should be able to return to face the Jets.

Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. We don’t expect that Freeman will play this week. Tevin Coleman should continue to see the vast majority of running back touches in the Atlanta backfield. He’s a solid RB1 against the Bengals this week.

Dolphins RB Frank Gore (not injury related) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. It doesn’t look like the injury is anything serious.

Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Lynch should be fine to play through the shoulder injury.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Mack may be able to return this week. Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines haven’t impressed in the two games that Mack missed, so if he can play, he may be in for a large workload.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (rib) took limited practice reps again Thursday. McCoy expects to return to face the Packers in Week 4.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (knee) missed practice again Thursday. Mixon is not expected to play this week though the Bengals have not ruled him out. Bernard turned 17 touches into 86 yards and a touchdown in Week 3.

Bills RB Marcus Murphy (rib) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (abdomen) did not practice Wednesday.

Falcons RB Ito Smith (ribs) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Smith should be able to play through the injury.

Chiefs RB Spencer Ware (knee) took full practice reps Thursday.

Chargers RB Derek Watt (thumb) practiced fully Wednesday.

Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon (ankle) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice.

Chargers WR Keenan Allen (knee) did not practice Wednesday. He didn’t practice on Thursday, either. We’ll have to wait and see if Allen practices on Friday. If he were to miss, Mike Williams and Tyrell Williams would get a bump.

Dolphins WR Danny Amendola (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (nose) took full practice reps again Thursday. Anderson should be fine to play through the nose injury, but his role in the offense is the biggest concern. We need to see more targets headed his way before we can recommend putting him back in the starting lineup.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Baldwin may be able to return this week. If he’s able to play, consider him a fantasy WR2.

Cowboys WR Cole Beasley (ankle) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Chargers WR Travis Benjamin (foot) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Benjamin is not startable even if he does play, but his absence is opening up snaps for Mike Williams, and Williams is having a breakout season as a result.

Ravens WR John Brown (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Brown was just getting a day of rest on Wednesday. He has at least 86 yards and/or a touchdown in three straight games and is averaging 7.7 targets per contest.

Texans WR Sammie Coates (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Packers WR Randall Cobb (hamstring) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps. This looks like a midweek downgrade, so we’ll have to see what he’s able to do on Friday. If he’s out, Geronimo Allison and Marquez Valdes-Scantling would likely pick up the slack.

Giants WR Stacy Coley (hamstring) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps.

Texans WR Keke Coutee (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Jets WR Quincy Enunwa (back) took full practice reps again Thursday. Enunwa should be fine to play through the back injury.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice.

Texans WR Will Fuller (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Fuller should continue to produce despite the injury.

Saints WR Ted Ginn (knee) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Ginn should be able to continue to play through the knee injury.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (quadricep) took limited practice reps Wednesday. He was “full” on Thursday so it looks like he’s good to go. He was targeted on 13.4% of C.J. Beathard’s pass attempts and accounted for 22.9% of his passing yardage in six games last season.

Patriots WR Josh Gordon (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Gordon is still learning the offense but the Patriots may want to get him on the field given their two-game losing streak.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (pelvis) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. HC Marvin Lewis said he is “very optimistic” about Green being able to play in Week 4. The full reps are an indicator that he’ll be able to play against the Falcons.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (thumb, ankle, hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Hopkins should be able to play through his various injuries.

Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) missed practice Thursday after full reps Wednesday. Jeffery apparently missed on Thursday due to illness. He may be able to return this week. We’ll have him ranked as a WR3/WR4 if he does return.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (calf) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Jones posted 5-96 on six targets playing through the calf injury in Week 3.

Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) took full practice reps again Thursday. Landry should continue to play through the knee injury. He has a great matchup with Oakland slot corner Leon Hall.

Giants WR Cody Latimer (knee) missed practice again Thursday.

Jets WR Charone Peake (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday.

Jets WR Terrelle Pryor (ankle) was limited Thursday after taking full practice reps Wednesday.

Cardinals WR Chad Williams (illness) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Broncos TE Jake Butt (knee) took limited practice reps Thursday. He tore his ACL and is out for the year. Jeff Heuerman likely sees the most snaps at tight end going forward.

Bills TE Charles Clay (shoulder, hip) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday. Clay may not be able to play this week.

Bills TE Jason Croom (knee) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps.

Dolphins TE A.J. Derby (foot) missed practice again Thursday.

Browns TE Seth DeValve (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (hip) missed practice again Thursday. If Jack Doyle is out another week, don’t hesitate to dial up Ebron (vs. HOU) again. He didn’t do much last week (5-33) but he played 88% of the snaps and saw 11 targets.

Colts TE Eric Ebron (shoulder, knee) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Ebron should be fine to face the Cowboys.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) took full practice reps again Thursday. Eifert’s role in the offense seems to be increasing. He posted 6-74 on eight targets in Week 3.

Giants TE Evan Engram (knee) missed practice again Thursday. Engram is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with an MCL sprain. Rhett Ellison will absorb most of his snaps and is a decent desperation option at the position. Sterling Shepard is probably the biggest beneficiary.

Packers TE Jimmy Graham (knee) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Graham should be fine to face the Bills.

Jets TE Neal Sterling (concussion) missed practice again Thursday.

Jaguars K Josh Lambo (right hip) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice. We’ll keep an eye on this.

Titans K Ryan Succop (left knee) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. He sat out with knee tendinitis, but it looks like he’s going to play.

Vikings RB Dalvin Cook (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Cook looks like a game-time decision for Thursday night. If he can’t play, Latavius Murray would be a low-end RB2 given a bad matchup with the Rams (No. 1 in RB aFPA).

Titans RB David Fluellen (groin) did not practice Wednesday.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Fournette should be able to return to face the Jets.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (quadricep) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Limited reps on Wednesday for a player who played the previous week usually indicates that the player will play again on Sunday.

Patriots WR Josh Gordon (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Gordon is still learning the offense but the Patriots may want to get him on the field given their two-game losing streak.

Bengals WR A.J. Green (pelvis) took limited practice reps Wednesday. HC Marvin Lewis said he is “very optimistic” about Green being able to play in Week 4.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (thumb, ankle, hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Hopkins should be able to play through his various injuries.

Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday. Jeffery has been cleared for contact and may be able to return this week. HC Doug Pederson has not committed to letting Jeffery play this week, however.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (calf) did not practice Wednesday. Jones posted 5-96 on six targets playing through the calf injury in Week 3.

Browns WR Jarvis Landry (knee) practiced fully Wednesday. Landry should continue to play through the knee injury. He has a great matchup with Oakland slot corner Leon Hall.

Giants WR Cody Latimer (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Titans WR Rishard Matthews (not injury related) did not practice Wednesday.

Saints WR Cameron Meredith (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Meredith caught a touchdown on one target against the Falcons, but played 43% of the snaps, which was the third-most among the New Orleans receivers after Michael Thomas and Ted Ginn.

Bears WR Anthony Miller (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.

Rams WR JoJo Natson (hand, out) did not practice Wednesday.

Jets WR Charone Peake (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

Jets WR Terrelle Pryor (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday.

Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (abdomen) did not practice Wednesday. It’s probably just early week rest, but we’ll monitor this new injury for Smith-Schuster. He has three straight games with at least 116 yards receiving.

Bills TE Charles Clay (shoulder, hip) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Dolphins TE A.J. Derby (foot) did not practice Wednesday.

Browns TE Seth DeValve (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (hip) did not practice Wednesday. We’re going to assume Doyle is going to miss another game unless he returns to practice by Friday. If he’s out again, Eric Ebron will be a good start given his five catches and 11 targets in Week 3.

Colts TE Eric Ebron (shoulder, knee) did not practice Wednesday. If Jack Doyle is out another week, don’t hesitate to dial up Ebron (vs. HOU) again. He didn’t do much last week (5-33) but he played 88% of the snaps and saw 11 targets.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) practiced fully Wednesday. Eifert’s role in the offense seems to be increasing. He posted 6-74 on eight targets in Week 3.

Giants TE Evan Engram (knee) did not practice Wednesday. Engram is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with an MCL sprain. Rhett Ellison will absorb most of his snaps and is a decent desperation option at the position. Sterling Shepard is probably the biggest beneficiary.

Packers TE Jimmy Graham (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (ankle) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Gronk should be fine to play this week, but we’ll keep an eye on his practice participation.

Patriots TE Jacob Hollister (chest) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Ravens TE Hayden Hurst (foot) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Vikings TE David Morgan (knee) practiced fully Wednesday.

Lions TE Michael Roberts (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Jaguars TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins (core muscle) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Jets TE Neal Sterling (concussion) did not practice Wednesday.

Titans K Ryan Succop (left knee) did not practice Wednesday. He has tendinitis in his knee so this is something to monitor.

Rams K Greg Zuerlein (groin, out) did not practice Wednesday.

Cardinals QB Sam Bradford (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Bradford should be out there against the Bears. He’s not a good start given the bad matchup.

Buccaneers QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Fitzmagic should be fine to face the Steelers on Monday night.

Broncos QB Case Keenum (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Keenum will play against the Ravens.

Titans QB Marcus Mariota (right elbow, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Mariota is apparently throwing with more velocity and is trending towards playing, though it’s no sure thing. If he’s out, it’s a downgrade for the entire Tennessee offense. For what it’s worth, head coach Mike Vrabel said that Mariota is the “same” as last week.

Redskins QB Colt McCoy (right thumb) took full practice reps all week.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (knee, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 3. Rodgers is expected to play through his knee sprain in Week 2. Washington has been able to pressure the quarterback but only has three sacks on the season.

Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill (knee, ankle) took full practice reps all week. Tannehill is a little banged up but should be out there against the Raiders.

Eagles QB Carson Wentz (knee) took full practice reps all week. Wentz is back this week. He is our No. 14 quarterback in what should be a favorable matchup against the Colts.

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson (hamstring) took full practice reps again Thursday. Wilson should be fine to face Dallas at home.

Eagles RB Jay Ajayi (back, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Ajayi out, Corey Clement has risen in our rankings. He’ll probably share touches with Wendell Smallwood, but in addition to 6 carries for 30 yards and a rushing touchdown last week, Clement added 5 catches for 55 yards as a receiver. The Colts just gave up 16 catches for 122 yards to Adrian Peterson and Chris Thompson. Smallwood is a deep league desperation play.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. The full practice indicates that Bernard should be fine for lead back duties against the Panthers. In the 46 career games where Bernard has seen at least 12 touches, he has averaged 16.6 touches for 89 yards and 0.39 touchdowns, or 16.4 fantasy points (PPR) per game.

Vikings RB Mike Boone (groin, questionable) took full practice reps Friday and is questionable for Week 3. He may get some work behind Latavius Murray.

Eagles RB Corey Clement (quadricep, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. Indications are that he’ll play. Clement has risen in our rankings. He’ll probably share touches with Wendell Smallwood, but in addition to 6 carries for 30 yards and a rushing touchdown last week, Clement added 5 catches for 55 yards as a receiver. The Colts just gave up 16 catches for 122 yards to Adrian Peterson and Chris Thompson.

Ravens RB Alex Collins (illness) was removed from the injury report Friday after taking full practice reps Thursday. Collins should be good to go to face the Broncos.

Vikings RB Dalvin Cook (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Cook out, Latavius Murray is a no-brainer Sneaky Start given the injury and the matchup. The only concern is that the Vikings shut Murray down if/when the game gets out of hand.

Dolphins RB Kenyan Drake (abdomen) took full practice reps all week. No worries here.

Titans RB David Fluellen (groin, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Fournette is expected to play against the Titans.

Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Freeman is expected to miss 1-2 more games. Tevin Coleman will serve as the Falcons’ lead back against the Saints. Ito Smith will get some work as well.

Chargers RB Melvin Gordon (neck) took full practice reps all week. No worries here.

Dolphins RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday.

Titans RB Derrick Henry (back) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Henry will play against the Jaguars but it’s a terrible matchup and he’s splitting time with Dion Lewis.

Bills RB Taiwan Jones (head, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch (shoulder) took limited practice reps all week. Lynch will be fine to face the Dolphins.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (foot, hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Mack out again, Jordan Wilkins would likely serve as the lead back for the Colts with Nyheim Hines rotating in. With Mack out Week 1, Wilkins saw 17 touches for 61 yards while Hines turned 12 touches into 52 yards. It’s a bad matchup against the Eagles, so neither player is particularly appealing.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (rib, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. It looks like McCoy is going to tough it out, but he has a terrible matchup against the Vikings and the Bills could elect to shut him down if/when the game gets out of hand.

Colts RB Christine Michael (illness) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Michael may see a few snaps behind Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines.

Patriots RB Sony Michel (knee) took full practice reps all week. Michel looks like he’s good to go to face the Lions, who have yielded 5.6 YPC and 359 rushing yards through two games.

Bengals RB Joe Mixon (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Gio Bernard is a low-end RB1 with Mixon sidelined.

Bengals RB Thomas Rawls (cramps) took full practice reps again Friday.

Eagles RB Darren Sproles (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Chiefs RB Spencer Ware (knee, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Chargers RB Derek Watt (thumb, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Jaguars RB Brandon Wilds (illness) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week.

Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. If Yeldon can’t play then Corey Grant will likely back up Leonard Fournette.

Dolphins WR Danny Amendola (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (knee, out) missed practice again Thursday and is out for Week 3. Baldwin is not expected back for a few more weeks. Tyler Lockett and Brandon Marshall are likely to serve as the top two targets in Seattle.

Cowboys WR Cole Beasley (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. Beasley looks to be truly questionable to face the Seahawks.

Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin (hip) took full practice reps again Friday. Benjamin should be fine to play through the hip injury.

Chargers WR Travis Benjamin (foot, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice Thursday and is questionable for Week 3. He was unable to play last week but was a game-time decision. If he returns, he’ll cut into the snaps of Mike Williams and Tyrell Williams.

Panthers WR Damiere Byrd (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Giants WR Kaelin Clay (ankle) took full practice reps again Friday.

Texans WR Sammie Coates (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Bengals WR Cody Core (back) took full practice reps all week.

Texans WR Keke Coutee (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. Fitzgerald should be fine to play through the hamstring injury.

Texans WR Will Fuller (hamstring) took limited practice reps all week. Fuller was limited last weekend and went off against the Titans. Fuller’s receiving lines in the five games he has played with Deshaun Watson: 4-35-2, 2-57-2, 2-62-1, 5-125-2 and 8-113-1. That’s a 67-catch, 1254-yard and 26-touchdown (!!!) pace. The touchdowns are going to regress eventually, but it’s encouraging to see that Fuller went over 100 yards receiving (and 8 targets) in each of his last two games with Watson. The Giants will be missing CB Eli Apple.

Falcons WR Russell Gage (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Saints WR Ted Ginn (knee) took limited practice reps all week. Ginn was removed from the injury report so he should be good to go to face the Falcons on the fast track in Atlanta.

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (toe) took limited practice reps again Friday. Godwin should be able to play on Monday night.

49ers WR Marquise Goodwin (quadricep, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. It looks like Goodwin may make his return this week, so we’ve added him to the rankings. He has a nice matchup with the Chiefs. The 49ers play early on Sunday.

Patriots WR Josh Gordon (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Gordon may be active for Week 3 but we wouldn’t expect him to play many snaps this quickly after the trade from Cleveland.

Raiders WR Dwayne Harris (foot) took full practice reps all week.

Redskins WR Maurice Harris (concussion, questionable) took full practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Colts WR T.Y. Hilton (quadricep) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. Hilton said the injury is “nothing to worry about” and he was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (thumb, ankle, hamstring) took limited practice reps all week. Hopkins is banged up but the Texans removed him from the injury report so he’s good to go in a tasty matchup against the Giants.

Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery (shoulder, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Jeffery has a chance to play, but he hasn’t been cleared for contact yet. The Eagles play early on Sunday.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (calf) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. Jones will play through the calf injury.

Lions WR Marvin Jones (ankle, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. Late-week additions to the injury report are worrisome but Jones’s limited participation on Friday indicates that he’ll be able to play against the Patriots in Week 3.

Cardinals WR Christian Kirk (back) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday.

Saints WR Tommylee Lewis (knee) was removed from the injury report Friday.

Bills WR Ray-Ray McCloud (knee, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (finger) took full practice reps all week. Parker should be able to play, but it remains to be seen if the Dolphins will activate him.

Redskins WR Paul Richardson (shoulder, knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Panthers WR Curtis Samuel (medical illness, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (hip, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Doyle out, Eric Ebron is a top five play at his position. Since 2016, tight ends have accounted for 28.8% of Andrew Luck’s completions, 28.2% of his passing yards and 40.0% of his touchdowns.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) took full practice reps all week. Eifert should be fine to face the Panthers. He played 65% of the snaps in Week 2 after playing 40% of the snaps in Week 1.

Giants TE Evan Engram (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Engram was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go.

Chargers TE Antonio Gates (illness, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (achilles, questionable) took full practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Texans TE Ryan Griffin (hip) took full practice reps again Friday.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Gronk was removed from the injury report so he should be good to go for Sunday night.

Patriots TE Jacob Hollister (chest, out) missed practice Friday and is out for Week 3.

Ravens TE Hayden Hurst (foot, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Vikings TE David Morgan (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Panthers TE Greg Olsen (foot, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Olsen is out for a while. Ian Thomas will fill in.

Lions TE Michael Roberts (knee, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Cardinals TE Ricky Seals-Jones (not injury related) missed practice Friday. This is probably nothing but check back over the weekend to make sure Seals-Jones is going to play.
