Dare Ogunbowale RB | HOU
Texans' Dare Ogunbowale: Awaits word on injured teammates
Ogunbowale could be Houston's lead back Week 15 as both Woody Marks (knee) and Nick Chubb (ribs) were non participants at Wednesday's practice.
During Sunday's 20-10 win over Kansas City, when Chubb was ruled out early and Marks was forced off the field for one play, Ogunbowale made the most of his one snap, rushing for a five-yard touchdown. He could receive a greater volume of snaps this week against Arizona pending the health situation of the injured backs. Ogunbowale has never been a big factor as a runner; he has just four carries in 13 games this season and never had more than 42 in any of his four seasons with the Texans.

Trey Smith G | KC
Chiefs' Trey Smith: Returns to practice
Smith (ankle) logged a full practice Wednesday.
Smith has missed each of Kansas City's last two games with the ankle injury, leaving a significant hole along the interior of the offensive line. His participation suggests he'll return in Week 15 against the Chargers.

Kolton Miller OT | LV
Raiders' Kolton Miller: Returns to practice
Miller (ankle) was designated to return to practice Wednesday.
Miller has been sidelined since late September due to a hairline fracture in his ankle. It's unclear if he'll have enough time to ramp up for a Week 15 matchup against the Eagles.

Kurtis Rourke QB | SF
49ers' Kurtis Rourke: Logs full practice
Rourke (knee) practiced in full Wednesday.
Rourke has been sidelined for his entire rookie season after undergoing surgery to repair his knee Jan. 8. He was originally expected back for training camp, though his recovery has clearly taken significantly longer. Rourke was designated to return Monday, so it's unclear if he'll be activated for a Week 15 matchup against the Titans.

Sam Okuayinonu DT | SF
49ers' Sam Okuayinonu: Sidelined to begin week
Okuayinonu (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
Okuayinonu suffered a serious ankle injury in Week 12 and was expected to miss multiple games. Even with the 49ers' bye week benefiting him with additional time to rest, Okuayinonu appears unlikely to suit up in Week 15 against Tennessee.

Jarran Reed DT | SEA
Seahawks' Jarran Reed: Reps limited
Reed (wrist/thumb) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Reed returned from a five-game absence Sunday and played 45 percent of defensive snaps. His limited participation is likely just the team limiting Reed's reps, meaning he should be ready to suit up in Week 15 against the Colts.
-
Ty Okada SAF | SEA
Seahawks' Ty Okada: Back on injury report
Okada (oblique) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Okada suffered a seemingly serious oblique injury in Week 12 but ultimately didn't miss any time. He's been on the injury report since, though he appears likely to suit up in Week 15 against the Colts.
-
Julian Love SAF | SEA
Seahawks' Julian Love: Limited to begin Week 15 prep
Love (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Love returned from injured reserve in Week 14 and played only 31 percent of defensive snaps, as he could be eased back into action with Seattle easily winning the game. The Seahawks are likely to continue to limit his reps, but there's no indication he's in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Colts.

Eric Saubert TE | SEA
Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Logs limited session
Saubert (calf) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Saubert last suited up in Week 7 but was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. He returned to the field by logging a limited session, but it remains to be seen whether he'll be activated for Seattle's Week 15 matchup against the Colts.
