It was the second consecutive day in which Wilson practiced with a yellow non-contact jersey after stating Wednesday that the team was simply being overly cautious. Wilson appears on track to maintain a high-volume role in the pass-heavy Cardinals offense in Week 8 against the Cowboys, where he will be a borderline WR1, if active.

The consecutive limited showings seems to indicate Moore is on track to return from a two-game absence, something we should get further fidelity on after Friday’s practice. There remains a possibility that Moore carries a questionable designation into the weekend if he is unable to upgrade to a full participant Friday, leaving fantasy managers hopeful yet uncertain as we near the weekend. Moore would return to a WR2 profile when the Bills take on the Ravens, if active.

Chase quickly puts his fantasy managers’ worries to rest, returning to a full session Thursday after being limited Wednesday. The Bengals will be playing without two tight ends and their WR3 in Andre Iosivas, but their primary contributors remain one of the healthier units as we approach the half way point in the regular season. Chase can be started as a top tier WR1 against the Titans.

Monangai has yet to practice after sustaining thumb and toe injuries in Week 4, with the potential that he misses his fourth consecutive game a very real possibility. The Bears held a walkthrough Thursday ahead of a Monday Night Football showdown against the Seahawks, meaning Monangai will have two more opportunities to get on the practice field ahead of Week 8. Fantasy managers are likely best making alternate arrangements considering the timing of the team’s game.

The return to practice comes on the heels of a missed practice Wednesday for the veteran workhorse, immediately putting fantasy managers at ease for Week 8. Managers will want to confirm his practice status Friday before making final preparations for the weekend, but it certainly appears as if Gibbs will be good to go for a normal, and massive, workload when the Lions take the field against the division rival Vikings.

The upgrade from “DNP” to a full session indicates St. Brown will be fine for a normal workload when the Lions face off against the Vikings Sunday, easing fantasy managers’ collective minds after the star receiver was not present at practice Wednesday. Fantasy managers will want to confirm his status on Friday’s injury report, but it certainly appears as if the team will have their veteran alpha for the divisional tilt.

It was his second consecutive limited showing following two missed games, with his level of activity Friday likely to be telling as it pertains to a potential return in Week 8. Warren’s absence has been felt hard by a Colts offense that has struggled to move the football consistently. He would likely return to a sizable role over the middle of the field against the pass-funnel Jaguars, if active in Week 8.

Jones was forced from the team’s Week 7 win over the Colts due to an aggravation of an existing knee injury. The fact he was able to return to the practice field in any capacity after missing Wednesday’s session is good news for his potential availability against the Lions. We would expect him to form a loose committee with Jordan Mason, if active Sunday. Fantasy managers will want to confirm his level of participation Friday.

That now marks consecutive days on the practice field for the veteran receiver whom has missed the previous two games. The Chiefs also had their bye in Week 5, giving Rice a full three weeks of recovery, which combines with his recent practice availability to make it likely he returns to face the Broncos. The Chiefs managed just 25 combined points in the two games without Rice.

The downgrade in participation raises serious questions surrounding his potential availability when the Patriots face the Dolphins in Week 8. Brown had been mostly limited in practice since being activated from injured reserve due to a separate ankle issue, with the absence Thursday marking the first fully missed practice in that window. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status Friday as they make plans for their weekend ahead. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Thursday that the veteran receiver’s absence is due to a “flare up” of a previous knee injury, placing his status for Sunday in doubt.
