Godwin (ankle) was a full practice participant Thursday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

One day removed from logging no on-field work due to an ankle issue Wednesday, Godwin was able to handle every practice rep and thus is in the clear for Sunday's game against the Packers. Through three games this season, he has just a 10-111-0 line on 11 targets, and he'll now be on the receiving end of passes from undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels instead of Baker Mayfield for the next few weeks due to the latter's dislocated right thumb.

Meyers (thumb) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

The Jaguars have been restricting Meyers' practice activity through the four weeks of the regular season after he jammed his right thumb during a joint practice with Carolina in training camp, but the issue hasn't kept him from suiting up on gamedays. He's expected to cleared to play Sunday in Cincinnati following Friday's practice.

The 49ers signed Cooks from the practice squad to the active roster Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Cooks spent a little more than a week on San Francisco's practice squad before joining a position group that currently has two injured players on the active roster and four on injured reserve. He split time between the Saints and Bills in 2025, combining for a 24-279-0 line on 36 targets in 15 regular-season games.

Mitchell (finger) didn't practice Thursday.

Mitchell sat out this past Sunday's loss to the Lions and could be trending toward a second consecutive absence Sunday against the Bears after being unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday. The 2024 second-round pick of the Colts is considered week-to-week by the Jets. He'll have one more chance to practice Friday.

Evans (ribs) was working on the side during Thursday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Evans made an early exit from the 49ers' Week 3 win against the Cardinals due to a strained rib, which held him out of drills Wednesday and is threatening to do so one day later. Thursday's practice report will reveal if he was able to mix into any drills at all.

Allen (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

This was the second straight limited practice for the vet. The Colts added that rest was part of the equation for Allen as they get set for Sunday's game in London. Allen is coming off his best game with his new team and is becoming extremely important to the passing game with Alec Pierce (heel) sidelined.

Jefferson (ankle) didn't participate in the portion of practice open to reporters Thursday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

Jefferson appears to be sitting out a second consecutive practice, though confirmation on that front will come later once the Vikings publish Thursday's practice report. Minnesota's brass previously expressed optimism that Jefferson could be available Sunday against the Dolphins after exiting the Week 3 win over Tampa Bay due to a sprained ankle, but Jefferson has yet to take any concrete steps toward returning. The star wide receiver will likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to maintain any hope of suiting up Sunday.

Coker (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

This is a good sign for Coker after being unable to participate Wednesday. He has battled lower-body injuries this season, with an ankle issue hampering him early on and a quadriceps issue cropping up against the Browns. Coker is trending up but Friday's report will paint a clearer picture for his gameday status.

Legette (knee) remained a non-participant at Thursday's practice.

Legette is considered week-to-week and is trending toward a second consecutive absence Sunday night against the Lions. He'll likely have to practice in some capacity Friday to avoid being ruled out on Friday's injury report. Brycen Tremayne, John Metchie and David Moore are candidates for increased roles in a Panthers wide receiver room that may also be without Jalen Coker (quadriceps), who practiced in limited fashion Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session.

Nacua (hip) is expected to log a full practice Thursday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Nacua appears to be getting closer and closer to a return after missing the last two games with groin soreness. He turned in a limited practice Wednesday and is on track to be full-go for Thursday's session. If Nacua is reported as a full participant later Thursday, it'll be another hurdle cleared in advance of his potential return in Week 4.
