AutoDraft Pro AI

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs returned from a one-game absence due to a knee injury, reclaiming the lead backfield role in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions. He rushed 17 times for 83 yards and caught his only target for eight yards, totaling 18 touches and 91 scrimmage yards. Jacobs has now failed to score a touchdown in his last two appearances after being kept out of the end zone only once in the preceding 17 regular-season games. He aims to end this drought in Week 14 against the Bears.

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (left elbow) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, marking his second consecutive limited listing for Week 13 prep. While he was expected to return to practice this week for the first time since dislocating his left non-throwing elbow in Week 9, Daniels is unlikely to be available for Sunday's game against the Broncos. The Commanders are expected to make a final ruling on his status on Friday, with Marcus Mariota set to start if Daniels remains sidelined.

Washington Commanders RB Chris Rodriguez (illness) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's practice report, signaling his return to full activity after being held out of drills Wednesday. This clears him to be available for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Prior to the team's Week 12 bye, Rodriguez had recorded double-digit carries in two of three games, accumulating 33 rushes for 160 yards and two touchdowns, along with one catch for six yards.

His two-yard scoring grab from Jordan Love marked his fifth touchdown of the season and broke a seven-game drought, as it was his first since Week 4. Doubs now carries a season line of 45 receptions, 542 yards, and five touchdowns on 71 targets into a crucial Week 14 NFC North clash with the Bears.

Devin Neal (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice, marking his second consecutive limited session. He played a season-high 59 offensive snaps in Week 12 against the Falcons after Alvin Kamara exited with an MCL sprain, rushing seven times for 18 yards and catching five of seven targets for 43 yards. His status for Sunday's game against the Dolphins remains uncertain as Kamara also trends toward missing the game.

AutoDraft Pro AI

Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) did not practice Thursday, marking his second consecutive missed session. He suffered a sprained MCL during the Week 12 loss to the Falcons, an injury that forced him to sit out the entire second half of that game. Friday's final practice report will offer more clarity on his status for Sunday's road contest against the Dolphins, with the Saints' offense potentially heavily depleted.

Marvin Harrison Remains Limited in Practice Following Appendectomy

AutoDraft Pro AI

Marvin Harrison (appendix) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, maintaining his activity level from Wednesday.

AutoDraft Pro AI

New York Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson was listed as limited in Thursday's practice estimate due to an ankle injury. This follows a strong performance last Sunday with QB Jameis Winston, where Robinson recorded nine catches on 14 targets for 156 yards and one touchdown.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, indicating he is fully on track for Sunday's game against the Bills. Metcalf injured his ankle in Week 12 but played through it, sitting out Wednesday's session before returning to full participation. He has drawn at least seven targets in four of his last five regular-season appearances, though he hasn't scored or topped 50 receiving yards in four straight games, and has gone without a red zone target in back-to-back contests.
