We’re getting closer to Week 10, and there are plenty of important injury situations to monitor around the NFL.

Several players are making progress, others are still missing practice, and a few big names are dealing with injuries that could affect their availability this weekend.

Here are the latest notable updates as of Thursday, November 12.

Thursday Practice Updates

Woody Marks – Houston Texans (Knee)

Marks was limited Wednesday but was not spotted during the media-access portion of Thursday’s practice. He reportedly experienced knee discomfort after Wednesday’s session. His availability against Cleveland is now worth monitoring closely.

David Montgomery – Houston Texans (Groin)

Montgomery returned to the practice field Thursday after missing Wednesday. Head coach DeMeco Ryans said the team is pleased with his progress, but his status for Sunday’s game against the Browns remains uncertain. His official participation level still needs to be confirmed.

Bhayshul Tuten – Jacksonville Jaguars (Ankle)

Tuten was spotted at Thursday’s practice without a helmet. He did not practice Wednesday, so this is at least a small step forward, but we don’t yet have confirmation that he participated in drills.

Garrett Wilson – New York Jets (Concussion)

Wilson returned to practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday. He’s still working through concussion protocol and needs to complete the necessary steps before being cleared.

George Pickens – Dallas Cowboys (Hamstring)

Pickens was spotted at Thursday’s practice and participated in individual drills. His workload and official practice designation will be important to watch.

Denzel Boston – Cleveland Browns (Toe)

Boston missed Thursday’s practice after also sitting out Wednesday. He previously said he expects to be fine for Week 10, but missing consecutive practices isn’t ideal.

Chris Bell – Miami Dolphins (Knee)

Bell was not seen at Thursday’s practice while dealing with a knee injury.

Andrei Iosivas – Cincinnati Bengals (Thumb)

Iosivas returned to practice Thursday after dealing with a thumb injury. That’s an encouraging development for Cincinnati.

Rhamondre Stevenson – New England Patriots (Knee)

Stevenson is dealing with a knee injury and was limited in Thursday’s practice. He’s trying to make it back for Week 10 after initially being expected to miss several weeks.

Chuba Hubbard – Carolina Panthers (Rest)

Hubbard returned to practice Thursday after receiving a rest day Wednesday. This is not currently being reported as an injury-related absence.

Final Thoughts

There are quite a few situations worth watching heading into Week 10.

The Houston running back situation is probably one of the most interesting. Woody Marks wasn’t spotted Thursday, while David Montgomery returned to the field. If Marks can’t play and Montgomery is able to return, that could completely change the Texans’ backfield.

I’m also keeping an eye on Bhayshul Tuten, Garrett Wilson, Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel.

On the positive side, Patrick Mahomes, Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice all practiced fully Thursday, which is encouraging news for Kansas City.

We’ll have to wait for the remaining official practice reports and Friday’s final updates before knowing exactly who will be available this weekend.
