The week's biggest question mark belongs to cbbrew. Jeremiyah Love was limited again Wednesday with the high-ankle sprain that's dogged him since the preseason, and coach Mike LaFleur's mixed signals aren't helping. Love is technically the No. 2 back on Arizona's depth chart behind Tyler Allgeier, and until he strings together a full practice, cbbrew should plan for a shaky Week 1 from his elite RB.
Compare that to vaniano's situation. Ashton Jeanty practiced fully after an ankle scare that once looked serious, and he's now clear for Miami. He may cede some early-down work to Vegas backups, but this is about as clean a resolution as an elite RB injury scare can have.
Tight end news was calmer. CapitanKampana's Tucker Kraft avoided the injury report entirely and is fully good to go, a clean starter for Week 1. Zmoneyballers has more texture: George Kittle is playing through his Achilles recovery Thursday night but on a snap count, making him a TE2 for now, while depth piece Eli Stowers remains limited with a hamstring and unlikely to matter much either way.
Washington's backfield stayed murky for both Trotter0 and Scarpg. Rachaad White cleared the injury report, but Jacory Croskey-Merritt is still limited with a groin issue, leaving touches uncertain for both bench backs.
Elsewhere, Zay Flowers (ssbradley40) is trending toward playing despite a limited hamstring session, while Tee Higgins (CapitanKampana) looked fully healthy in practice. Bench-level notes were mostly good: DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman are both clear in Pittsburgh, Josh Downs and Wan'Dale Robinson are off their reports, and Bhayshul Tuten checks in healthy for jgianares with a shot at added touches.
