  • Lamar Jackson was back at Ravens practice Wednesday in a limited role, coach Jesse Minter said, after missing Week 6 with his ankle injury. ESPN's Jamison Hensley then saw him walk into the team facility with a limp after practice, and his status for Sunday against the Bengals is unclear.

  • The rest of Wednesday's news that matters for RSO rosters:

    John Harbaugh confirmed J.J. McCarthy will replace Jameis Winston and start Sunday at Houston. The Giants are counting on his mobility to help the offense, per ESPN's Jordan Raanan.

    In Tampa Bay, Emeka Egbuka missed practice with a concussion and a foot injury ahead of the trip to Carolina. Baker Mayfield was a full participant, and Todd Bowles said he expects to decide on his quarterback Friday. Bucky Irving sat out with an illness.

    The Bears ruled out Kyle Monangai for Thursday night against New England. It will be his third straight missed game with the thumb injury and turf toe.

    Denver designated running back Jonah Coleman to return from injured reserve, opening his 21-day practice window.

  • Saints receiver Jordyn Tyson will not practice this week and will miss the Paris game.

    Seattle listed Zach Charbonnet as a full participant for the first time since he came back to practice on Oct. 1 from a torn ACL. He had been limited on every report until Wednesday.

    The Rams put defensive end Kobie Turner on injured reserve and signed kicker Brandon McManus, per the league's transaction wire.

    Texans tight end Dalton Schultz missed practice with a quad injury. It was his first absence of the week, with no timeline given.

    Roger Goodell said the league welcomes an investigation into the Eagles' handling of Jalen Hurts' blood clots after the players' union asked for one. Hurts is still out for the season.

    What to do now: Jackson owners should line up a backup quarterback before Sunday, since one limited day and a limp leave the game in doubt. Start McCarthy in superflex leagues where he is available. Hold Egbuka and keep Coleman stashed, and Charbonnet owners should get ready for a bigger share of Seattle's backfield soon.

    What to watch next: Thursday's practice reports for Jackson, Egbuka and Schultz, Bowles' Friday call on Mayfield, and whether Seattle activates Charbonnet this week.
