Roundup: Jatos QB Sam Darnold limitado na prática

As theOakland Raidersprepare for their Sunday tilt against theChicago Bearsin London, they did so on Wednesday without No. 1 receiverTyrell Williamsand first-round draft pickClelin Ferrell.

Ferrell, a defensive end, is in concussion protocol and did not practice on Wednesday, nor did Williams, who has a foot injury,Raiderscoach Jon Gruden told reporters.

Here are other news items we’re monitoring on Wednesday:

1.New York Jetscoach Adam Gase said quarterbackSam Darnold(mono) went through team drills but has not yet been cleared for contact. He officially was limited at practice. GuardKelechi Osemele(shoulder/knee) and wide recieverJosh Bellamy(shoulder) were limited, as well.

Gase indicated there was a better chance of Darnold returning, but did not commit to it.

“I like our odds better than what they’ve been,” Gase saidper ESPN. “Last week, if we would’ve been playing again, I would’ve said it’s very low. I like the fact that things have looked and progressed in the right direction. But I don’t know what that five percent is. There’s some gray still there.”

LinebackerC.J. Mosley(groin), wideoutDemaryius Thomas(hamstring/knee), running backTrenton Cannon(hamstring), and linebackerJordan Jenkins(calf) did not participate.

2.New York Giantsrunning backSaquon Barkleywas seen doing some “light running” and “change of direction” during the portion of practice open to the media,per Art Stapleton of The Record (N.J.). Barkley currently is dealing with a high ankle sprain suffered in Week 3, but it appears as though the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year could be back ahead of his original 4-6 week timeline.

Coach Pat Shurmur told the media that Barkley “felt good,” and would not rule out the running back playing on Sunday against theVikings.

Running backWayne Gallman, who filled in terrifically for Barkley against theRedskins, showed up on the injury report with a neck ailment and was limited.

3.New England PatriotswideoutJosh Gordon(knee) was added to the injury report. He was limited at practice.

Patriotsare bringing back former second-round pickJordan Richards, a strong safety and special teamer, per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. Drafted in 2015 by the Pats, Richard most recently played for theFalconsin 2018 and was with theRaidersthis past offseason.

4. TheMinnesota Vikingslisted wideoutStefon Diggsas having missed practice today for non-injury reasons, Rapoport reported. No other explanation yet available, Rapoport added.

5.Buffalo BillsquarterbackJosh Allenparticipated in non-contact football related activities at Wednesday’s practice as he makes his way through the league’s concussion protocol,per the team’s official website. Allen officially was listed as limited at practice.

Allen has been in the concussion protocol since he suffered a hit to the head during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss to thePatriots.

Josh Allenis doing what would be considered non-contact football related activities here. This would indicate that he is in stage 4 of the 5-step return to participation protocol. The only step after this is full medical clearance.#Billspic.twitter.com/cSrznA14O0

6. TheCincinnati Bengalsplaced wide receiverJohn Rosson injured reserve with a sternoclavicular injury. The news is a disappointing turn of events for theBengalsafter NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported Tuesday that Ross was expected to miss multiple games with an injured shoulder. Coach Zac Taylor told the media it was a six-to-eight-week injury and the best decision was to place him on IR to have the opportunity to return later this season.

Through four weeks, Ross was tied for 10th in the NFL in receiving yards (328) and ninth in receiving scores (3).

7.Jacksonville JaguarscornerbackJalen Ramsey(back) will not practice Wednesday, Rapoport reported.

“No, I think we’re going to look at it, coach Doug Marrone said when asked if there was a timetable for Ramsey’s injury. “Talking to Jalen [Ramsey] today, basically it’s going to be a day-to-day type thing.”

Jags quarterbackGardner Minshewwas added to the injury report with a knee injury, but it is considered minor, according to Rapoport. Minshew was limited in practice Wednesday.

“I think you always have to be careful and I think that’s probably the best way,” Marrone said regarding Minshew. “I think we just have to do a good job and be careful. He’ll be limited today. Anytime someone shows up on the injury report I think you just have to be mindful of it. I don’t think he can just come out here and go, ‘Everything’s fine, everything’s great.’ I just think that we have to be careful leading up to the game.”

8.Dallas Cowboyswide receiversMichael GallupandAmari Cooper(ankle), defensive endDeMarcus Lawrence(knee/shoulder), guardZach Martin(back) were limited at practice today. TackleTyron Smith(ankle), defensive endTyrone Crawford(hip) and tackleLa’el Collins(back) did not participate.

10.Chicago Bearscoach Matt Nagy said linebackerRoquan Smithwill be a full-go in today’s practice after dealing with “personal” issues. Nagy said confirmed quarterbackMitch Trubiskyis mostly likely to miss their game against theRaidersbut is considered day-to-day going forward.

13.Arizona Cardinalswide receiverChristian Kirk(ankle) is unlikely to play Sunday against theBengals, coach Kliff Kingsbury announced Wednesday. ReceiverDamiere Byrd(hamstring) is also unlikely to play.

Kingsbury said he did not want to rush Kirk back and when asked why Kirk was still in the game during the last minute of a lopsided contest, the first-year coach said, “We need all the reps we can get, particularly with that quarterback. So those guys are going to play and play it out.”
