Gibbs and St. Brown return to full practice as Barkley sits again

Jahmyr Gibbs (shoulder) and Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) both practiced fully Thursday, a day after sitting out, according to the Lions' report as relayed by Underdog NFL and RotoWire. It was the best news of a Thursday that also brought a blockbuster defensive trade and a Packers win on Thursday Night Football.

Detroit gets healthy, Philadelphia does not

Two full sessions from Gibbs and St. Brown put both on track to play Sunday. Saquon Barkley (hamstring, back) missed practice again, and DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was not seen working either. Two straight missed days puts both Eagles in real doubt for Week 8.

Ja'Marr Chase (ankle) had no limitations and said he is good to go. Travis Kelce (ankle) and Rashee Rice (hamstring, knee) were limited in Kansas City. Jaylen Waddle (chest) moved up to limited after sitting out Wednesday, and Aaron Jones (knee) returned to practice on a limited basis. Emeka Egbuka (concussion, foot) was limited in a regular jersey, with Kenneth Gainwell (hip) also limited. Stefon Diggs practiced fully.

Seattle designated Jadarian Price to return from injured reserve, and Mike Macdonald said there is a realistic chance he plays this week.

From the afternoon desk

Chicago acquired Jeffery Simmons and a 2028 fifth-round pick from Tennessee for its 2027 first- and fourth-round picks and its 2028 first. A.J. Brown (knee, ankle) and TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) missed Patriots practice. Braelon Allen returned to full practice while Breece Hall stayed limited. DJ Moore was limited again in a non-contact jersey, and Carnell Tate and Tyjae Spears missed a second Titans practice.

Thursday night

Green Bay beat Carolina 27-19 behind three Jordan Love touchdown passes. Christian Watson went to a hospital during the game, came back and finished with 113 yards, and he is now said to have a broken rib.

What RSO owners should do now

Start Gibbs and St. Brown with normal confidence. Have a pivot ready for Barkley and Smith, since Philadelphia's Friday report will likely settle both. Price is worth a speculative add in deeper leagues. Watson owners should plan for a short absence until Green Bay gives a timeline.

What to watch next

Friday game designations for the Eagles, Patriots and Titans come first, followed by Watson's injury update from Green Bay.
