Diontae Johnson (back) officially practiced fully today.

We’ll let you know if anything changes, but it looks like Johnson will be back in the lineup after missing last week with his back issue that essentially forced him to miss the past two games. It’ll be interesting to see how the playing time among Pittsburgh receivers is split with rookie Chase Claypool’s emergence.

DeSean Jackson will play in Week 7.

As Eagles head coach Doug Pederson indicated earlier today, Jackson will play tomorrow against the Giants after missing the past three games with a hamstring issue.

Alshon Jeffery (foot) is officially out for Thursday night.

It remains a mystery as to why the Eagles did not place Alshon on injured reserve to start the season. This is his seventh consecutive missed game to open the year.

Sam Darnold (shoulder) will be limited in today’s practice.

This is a good sign as Darnold looks to make his return to the lineup, but ideally he’ll be able to get up to a full practice by tomorrow or Friday.

Mark Ingram (ankle) is not expected to miss time.

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero says that Ingram is dealing with a mid-to-high-ankle sprain. The Ravens are currently on their bye week, and head coach John Harbaugh says that Ingram is expected to be ready for Week 8 against the Steelers.

The Texans signed Damion Ratley to the practice squad.

Ratley will serve as depth on the practice squad, which can more easily move players up and down during this unusual 2020 season.

Marcus Mariota has been designated to return off injured reserve.

This was fully expected. Mariota will soon backup Derek Carr, and the former No. 2 overall pick certainly has the ability to give a spark off the bench for Jon Gruden’s squad. That said, Carr is off to a very strong start to the season for Vegas.
