The story said HC Matt LaFleur was asked Monday if the Packers will open the 21-day practice windows for any players this week and the head coach flashed a massive smile while saying, “I sure as heck hope so.” According to the story, LaFleur added that the team will have a better idea about the availability of Reed, and running back Lloyd, over the next two days. The return of Reed could be a big deal for the Packers offense, especially after losing TE Tucker Kraft. The return of Reed would create a logjam of healthy WRs in Green Bay.

Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) participated fully.

He is expected back for Thursday night game against Bills, the report said. Fairbairn was one of the top fantasy kickers before he missed a couple of weeks, and is worth adding if he's on your wire.

There is some positive news on the injury front for Houston.

According to multiple reporters, C.J. Stroud is set to return to practice on Tuesday as the quarterback takes a step forward in the concussion protocol.

While that's certainly great news, with the Texans hosting the Bills on Thursday night, Stroud is still unlikely to play in Week 12, the story went on to say. It looks like Mills will get the start this Thursday night, but it seems like Stroud has a chance to play in Houston’s Week 13 divisional matchup against Indianapolis.
