Chris Godwin Puts in Limited Practice on Wednesday
Updating previous reports, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) was officially listed as a limited participant in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday, according to the team's website. Godwin wasn't seen at the portion of practice open to the media, but he did get onto the field later in the day, perhaps giving him a chance to play this Sunday against the Buffalo Bills for the first time since injuring his fibula in Week 5. The 29-year-old appears to be making progress, but head coach Todd Bowles said earlier this week that he didn't expect Godwin to play in Week 11. Both Godwin and running back Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) were limited, but it doesn't mean they'll be available versus the Bills. Tampa is taking a cautious approach with Godwin, who suffered a season-ending dislocated ankle in Week 7 of last year. Don't be surprised if he's not back until the calendar flips to December.

Sam LaPorta Misses Practice With Back Injury Wednesday
Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (back) was a non-participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday due to a back injury, according to the team's website. LaPorta has two more chances to return to practice this week, but the 24-year-old's status definitely bears watching as the team prepares for a Sunday night showdown in Week 11 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. If LaPorta's injury is serious enough to keep him from playing this weekend, Brock Wright would get added opportunities in Detroit's high-scoring offense. However, fantasy managers would still have better streaming options at the TE position this week. If LaPorta cannot play, targets in the Lions' offense would probably be distributed more among running back Jahmyr Gibbs and receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. LaPorta has a nice 40-489-3 line on 49 targets through 10 weeks and is a must-start in fantasy when he's active.

Drake London Under the Weather, Misses Practice on Wednesday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (illness) did not practice on Wednesday due to an illness, according to Tori McElhaney of AtlantaFalcons.com. London should be feeling better later in the week and should be fine to take the field this Sunday for a divisional contest against the visiting Carolina Panthers, where he'll be a must-start in fantasy football. The 24-year-old got off to a slow start in 2025 in quarterback Michael Penix Jr.'s first full season as the starter, but he has come on strong late, scoring four touchdowns in his last five games. In the first meeting with Carolina in a 30-0 loss on Sept. 21, London caught five of his eight targets for 55 yards and no touchdowns. Atlanta is looking to put a halt to their three-game losing streak, and London should be heavily involved in that effort this weekend. Look for him to return to practice on Thursday or Friday.

Ricky Pearsall Limited in his Return to Practice on Wednesday
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) returned to practice on Thursday for the first time since suffering a sprained PCL in his knee in Week 4. Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports that Pearsall was slated to be limited in his first practice back. It gives Pearsall a chance to return this weekend for a divisional game against the Arizona Cardinals, but the 25-year-old former first-rounder will probably need to upgrade to a full practice on Thursday or Friday to have a legitimate shot at returning on Sunday. Given his long layoff, fantasy managers should expect Pearsall to be eased back into the offense as well, which means he'll be a pretty risky fantasy play whenever he does return. In addition to Pearsall nearing his return, the Niners could have quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) back for the first time since Week 4. When Pearsall returns, he could be the No. 4 aerial target behind running back Christian McCaffrey, receiver Jauan Jennings, and tight end George Kittle.
