Young (abdomen) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Young has missed the last three games after sustaining an abdomen injury in Week 10 against the Commanders. It was his only appearance of the year, as he spent the beginning of the year on IR with a groin injury. Young's full participation Wednesday is a good sign that the 2022 seventh-round pick is on track to return for Week 14 against the 49ers.

Eskdridge (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Eskridge missed Week 13 against the Cowboys while dealing with a rib issue. He's buried on the wide receiver depth chart but has established himself as the top kick returner and, barring any setback, figures to reclaim that role for Week 14 against the 49ers.

Bobo (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Bobo popped up on the Seahawk's injury report Wednesday with a knee issue. He's registered a catch in four straight games as he operates behind DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba on the wide receiver depth chart. Over 12 games this season, Bobo has caught 15 passes for 171 yards and two touchdowns and has rushed for a three-yard touchdown.

Montgomery may be asked to play a larger role in the Patriots' offense Thursday night versus Pittsburgh, Evan Lazar of the team's official website reports.

Montgomery could see an increased workload against the Steelers with Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) officially ruled out for Week 14. This season, Montgomery has turned three carries into nine yards while appearing in all 12 of the team's contests to this point and he'll be operating behind Ezekiel Elliott in the backfield, so his fantasy value will remain limited.

Boutte (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Steelers.

Boutte will miss his 10th game of the season with a shoulder injury. He was able to get in a limited session Tuesday, but it wasn't enough for him to suit up for Thursday's game. Fellow wideout Demario Douglas (concussion) has also been ruled out for Week 14 while DeVante Parker (knee) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) are both listed as questionable.

Jones (groin) is listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

This might explain why Jones' playing time fell off a cliff (10 snaps) in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, though it's also possible the Eagles simply prefer Quez Watkins (46 snaps) as their No. 3 receiver. Jones was listed with a knee injury the past few weeks, but the groin issue is something new and might impact his availability for a matchup with the Cowboys this Sunday.

Goodwin (concussion) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

The speedy wideout's potential return comes at a good time for Cleveland, with WR Amari Cooper in concussion protocol and strong-armed Joe Flacco potentially starting at quarterback. Goodwin missed the past four games in concussion protocol, and he's unlikely to handle a typical starter's workload even if he does make it back for Sunday's matchup with Jacksonville.

Hollins (ankle) logged a full practice Wednesday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

After sprinkling three limited sessions over the previous two weeks, Hollins finally returned to all activity to start Week 14 prep and thus appears ready for his first game action since Week 9, when he initially suffered an ankle injury. Prior to his recent three-game absence, Hollins was a bit player in the Falcons' passing attack, compiling a 17-247-0 line on 29 targets in nine appearances this season.

Mims was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a rib injury, Ryan McFadden of The Denver Post reports.

Mims has progressed from the No. 4 WR role to No. 3 in terms of playing time, but he actually had more luck putting up numbers early in the season when he was playing fewer than 20 snaps each week. He had four catches of 38-plus yards in his first four games -- plus a kick return TD -- and has since failed to record a reception spanning more than 16 yards. The ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday suggests Mims should be able to face the Chargers this Sunday, but there's not much reason to expect more than two or three targets and maybe a carry.

Nacua (shoulder) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports.

In the wake of playing through pain this past Sunday against the Browns, Nacua was revealed to be dealing with an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder by coach Sean McVay on Monday. Two days later, McVay elaborated on Nacua's capped session, saying "I don't know what that means because he did everything." That comment alone implies Nacua likely isn't in danger of sitting out the Rams' Week 14 road matchup with the Ravens, but his status still should be watched as the weekend draws closer to get a sense of his potential to play in that contest.
