Coleman (ankle) was at practice for a second straight day Thursday, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports.

Coleman avoided any setbacks at Wednesday's practice, during which he was a full participant. The rookie fourth-round pick has a good chance of being activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, though his standing in a Broncos backfield that also includes J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie (thumb) is murky.

Judkins (ankle) remained a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Judkins has logged back-to-back limited practices as he tries to limit his absence due to an ankle injury to one game. He sat out the Week 6 win over the Ravens, during which Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime notched nine carries apiece. Cleveland could have a different backfield mix Sunday against the Titans, with Judkins angling to reclaim the lead role and Dylan Sampson (knee) eligible to be activated from injured reserve.

Hall (quadriceps) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.

Hall logged his first practice participation of any kind since a second-half exit against the Lions back in Week 3. He moved well in his return to practice, per Brian Costello of the New York Post, though Costello also notes that Hall went to the rehab area after individual drills rather than taking part in teams drills. Hall will likely need to log a full practice Friday to avoid a questionable designation for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Braelon Allen has enjoyed a near-monopoly on backfield touches for the Jets while Hall has been sidelined.

Irving (illness) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Several Buccaneers missed practice Wednesday due to an illness, including Irving. The third-year running back got back in the mix on Thursday, which is an encouraging step for him going into the Week 7 game against the Panthers. Provided Irving practices again on Friday, he'll be trending in the right direction to play.

Donaldson (shoulder) practiced without limitations Thursday.

Donaldson upgraded to full participation Thursday while Alvin Kamara (back) was limited for a second consecutive practice. Heading into Sunday's overseas showdown against the Steelers, Donaldson has been working as the Saints' third option in the backfield behind Kamara and Kendre Miller while Travis Etienne (hamstring) is on IR. Donaldson has accumulated 82 scrimmage yards on 16 touches over the past three games.

Kamara (back) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Kamara now has logged back-to-back capped practices to begin Week 7 prep as he deals with a back concern for a third consecutive week. He's been able to play through it, but his snap shares in Week 5 (27 percent) and Week 6 (26 percent) didn't equate to much work (14 touches for 75 yards from scrimmage and one receiving TD). Friday's injury report will unveil whether or not Kamara enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Steelers in Paris.

Steele (shoulder) reverted to the Eagles' injured reserve Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction list.

Steele played just 12 snaps (three on offense, nine on special teams) for the Eagles in Week 6 before exiting with a dislocated shoulder. The 24-year-old joins fellow running backs Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and Will Shipley (foot) on IR. Damien Pierce is the only healthy running back on the roster, though, Saquon Barkley was also present at practice and a candidate to return for Week 7 after missing the last two weeks with a hamstring injury.

Barkley (hamstring) was in uniform for Thursday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

The Eagles signaled that Barkley was approaching a return to action by moving on from Carson Steele (shoulder, IR) and Jaydon Blue earlier this week. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network then reported Thursday morning that Barkley was expected to practice Thursday with the aim to play Monday against the Cowboys. While Barkley's activity level as he mixes back into drills isn't known yet, he appears to be trending in the right direction for Week 7 action.

Washington (foot/back) wasn't on the field for the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

After taking limited reps Wednesday due to a pair of injuries, Washington looks like he'll be downgraded to a non-participant for the Raiders' second practice of Week 7. Washington will likely need to get back on the field Friday in some capacity to put himself on a path to play Sunday versus the Rams. In the event the rookie fourth-round pick is unable to suit up this weekend, starter Ashton Jeanty could be forced to take on a heavier workload out of the backfield, while Dylan Laube would step in as the top complementary option.

Dowdle (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's injury report, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Thursday marked another limited session for Dowdle, who has been dealing with a knee issue in the lead-up to the Steelers' upcoming game against the Saints. He will have a chance to ramp up to a full practice on Friday before the Steelers make a final call on his gameday status.
