Malik Cunningham: Goes back to practice squad
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:50 PM
Cunningham reverted to Detroit's practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transactions log.
Cunningham played just one of the Lions' 62 offensive snaps during Thursday's 44-30 win versus the Cowboys, taking a direct snap for one yard in the middle of the third quarter. The Lions can still elevate him from the practice squad to the active roster two more times this season.

Alex Bachman: Wont' suit up against Denver
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:44 PM
Bachman (thumb) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Bachman has contributed primarily on special teams, and he will miss his third game of the campaign. While he's served only as pass-catching depth, the Raiders will be shorthanded at wide receiver with Dont'e Thornton (concussion) also sidelined.

Jack Bech: Chance to step up
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:41 PM
Head coach Pete Carroll said Bech will have the chance to earn an increased role in Sunday's game against the Broncos due to the absence of Dont'e Thornton (concussion), Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Bech has had a quiet rookie season, logging only 192 offensive snaps and 15 targets across 12 games. However, with both Thornton and Alex Bachman ruled out, the Raiders currently only have three healthy wide receivers heading into Sunday's divisional matchup. Bech should log his highest snap count of the season, though that's no guarantee of production given the state of the Raiders' offense.

CeeDee Lamb: Optimism for Week 15
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:41 PM
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer relayed to reporters Friday that Lamb "had a good day" one day after sustaining a concussion during the Cowboys' 44-30 loss to the Lions on Thursday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Lamb was in the midst of his most productive game of the season Thursday before exiting in the third quarter due to a concussion. Lamb and the Cowboys have additional time to rest and recover ahead of their Week 15 clash against the Vikings on Sunday, Dec. 14, but the sixth-year wideout would have to pass an evaluation administered by an independent neurologist in order to clear the league's concussion protocol. If Lamb were to miss time, George Pickens would assume the WR1 spot and Ryan Flournoy, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Tolbert and Jake Ferguson would all be in line for more work in the passing game.

Dont'e Thornton: Ruled out for Week 14
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:30 PM
Thornton (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Thornton suffered a concussion in the Raiders' Week 13 loss to the Chargers and couldn't practice at all during the week. That suggests he hasn't made much progress through the league's concussion protocol. Jack Bech is expected to have a chance to step up in Thornton's absence.

Nate Adkins: Won't play at Las Vegas
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:18 PM
Adkins (knee) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Adkins did not participate at practice at all during the week, as he continues to tend to a knee injury he suffered in Week 8 versus the Cowboys. Adam Trautman and two-time Pro Bowler Evan Engram are currently the only two healthy tight ends on Denver's 53-man roster.

Xavier Gipson: Manages full practice Friday
Friday, December 5, 2025 7:07 PM
Gipson (shoulder) was a full participant at practice Friday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
Gipson was still limited by the shoulder injury he suffered in Week 12 at Dallas to start the Eagles' preparations for Week 14, but he now appears to be back to full strength. He is on track to reclaim his return duties come Monday's game against the Chargers.

Hassan Haskins: Full participant Friday
Friday, December 5, 2025 6:42 PM
Haskins (hamstring) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Haskins upgrades to a full participant in just his second practice back from his stint on the injured reserve. It is unclear if the Chargers will want to remove the running back from the injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Eagles, but an upgrade in practice participation is a great sign for the 26-year-old's health.

Michael Mayer: Out again in Week 14
Friday, December 5, 2025 5:46 PM
Mayer (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Broncos.
Mayer hasn't been able to practice since he sustained an ankle injury Week 12 against the Browns, and while he'll be absent for a second consecutive contest Sunday, coach Pete Carroll expressed optimism that the third-year pro will be able to return Week 15 at Philadelphia on Sunday, Dec. 14, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com. With Mayer sidelined again, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon will take on the TE reps that don't go to top option Brock Bowers.

Jahan Dotson: Limited in practice again
Friday, December 5, 2025 5:34 PM
Dotson (toe) remained limited at Friday's practice, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
Dotson has one more chance to upgrade to full participation ahead of Monday's matchup with the Chargers. He was listed as a limited participant both Thursday and Friday.
