Texans DL Rasheem Green (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. He popped up on the injury report Friday after a limited practice. We'll check his status Sunday.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 8 injury report. He’ll return for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins and should be ready for a full workload.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He was limited all last week before missing the Cowboys game. Barring a setback, he should return for Sunday's game against Miami.

Seahawks RB Travis Homer (ribs) has been designated to return from IR. He'll practice on Wednesday and is eligible to play vs. the Giants this weekend if he's ready. Homer was operating in a pass-catching role before going down and figures to swipe that job back from RB DeeJay Dallas. We'll see how much he eats into RB Ken Walker's pass-catching work. The rookie ran a route on a season-high 62% of pass plays last week.

Chargers WR Keenan Allen ranked 4th among Chargers WRs in playing time in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks and checked in 5th in routes, according to Pro Football Focus. He trailed DeAndre Carter, Mike Williams, Michael Bandy and Jason Moore, running just 14 routes among QB Justin Herbert's 57 dropbacks (24.6%). Allen drew just 2 targets, catching both for 11 yards. We'd bet on a bigger role after the Week 8 bye. Carter caught just 3 of 7 targets for 37 yards, trailing RB Austin Ekeler, Williams and TE Gerald Everett in targets.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cowboys. He got in 3 limited practices this week, seemingly giving him a good chance to be back for Week 8. Swift’s absence today leaves RB Jamaal Williams as Detroit’s lead ball-carrier vs. the Cowboys’ 5th-ranked RB defense. See where Williams sits in the Week 7 RB Rankings.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Chargers WR Keenan Allen (hamstring) “wants to see how he feels Sunday before making a final decision“ on whether he’ll play.

He was limited in practice all week and will be a game-time decision, HC Brandon Staley said Friday. “We won’t put him out there unless we know that he can go," Staley said. "How much he goes? Obviously, it’s his first game back, so there will be some type of pitch count — with it being his first game back — if he goes. We’ll just see. But if there’s any apprehension, then he won’t go." For his part, Allen said he has "high hopes" about his availability. We'll see if we get an update on his status on Sunday morning, but we won't get the Chargers' inactives until 3 pm ET.
