Kincaid (chest) remained in a red non-contact jersey for a second straight day Thursday, Jay Skurski of the Buffalo News reports.

This marks Kincaid's second straight practice in a non-contact jersey as Buffalo returns from the bye and prepares to host the Ravens in Week 8. Friday's practice will give a clear picture of Kincaid's status going into the weekend.

Seattle signed Sims to its practice squad Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Seattle tried out Sims on Tuesday, and the team evidently liked what it saw enough to bring him on as a member of the practice squad. Over 11 games with the Packers and the Vikings in 2025, he caught three of six targets for 30 yards.

Thomas (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Thomas picked up a shoulder injury against the Rams in Week 7, although he was cleared to return to the contest and finished with one catch on as many targets for eight yards. He would avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets if he were to practice in full over the next two days.

Kacmarek (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Kacmarek may have picked up the injury during the Dolphins' Week 7 win over the Jets, when he logged 34 snaps (29 on offense, five on special teams) without showing up on the box score otherwise. The rookie third-rounder will have two more opportunities to return to practice in at least a limited capacity before Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Ogletree (knee) was estimated as a limited participant on the Colts' official injury report Wednesday.

Ogletree presumably picked up the knee injury during Sunday's game at Minnesota, but his status indicates it's probably not too severe. If he can practice in full Thursday or Friday, he could still avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Minnesota signed Nesbit (undisclosed) to its practice squad Wednesday.

The Vikings waived Nesbit from their injured reserve list with an injury settlement back in August, but he's now back in the building following Week 7. Minnesota also signed tight end Devin Culp to its practice squad Wednesday.

Minnesota signed Culp to its practice squad Wednesday.

Just a little more than a week after getting cut from the Browns' practice squad, Culp has now found another opportunity with a new club. He suited up for 13 games with the Buccaneers in 2025, catching his only target for six yards and a touchdown.

The Browns signed Ryan to the practice squad Wednesday.

The Browns waived Ryan from the active roster Monday. The tight end cleared waivers and was promptly invited back to the team as part of the 16-man practice squad. Ryan has played in six regular-season games for the Browns this year and has accumulated 73 special-teams snaps and two offensive snaps with no box-score output.

Parkinson did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a rib injury, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Parkinson may have picked up the injury during the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders in Week 7, when he caught five of six targets for 48 yards. He'll have two more opportunities to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers. Terrance Ferguson (ankle) will remain on IR for Week 8, so if Parkinson cannot play, then Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen would serve as the Rams' top tight ends.

Kincaid was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a chest injury.

Before the Bills went on bye Week 7, Kincaid briefly exited a 33-30 win over the Raiders on Oct. 18 due to what the team referred to as a rib issue. His listed chest injury is presumably related and resulted in Kincaid donning a no-contact jersey during the open portion of Wednesday's practice, per Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard. As long as the tight end is able to practice fully by the end of the week, he should be ready to handle his normal snap share in Sunday's matchup with the Ravens.
