Hurst suffered a concussion in Week 10, missing three games since then. He did return to practice Wednesday, but was in a red non-contact jersey. Hurst’s father tweeted that Hurst has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Amnesia by an independent neurologist and has a “slow recovery” ahead of him. Eventually, Hurst may be able to return to football, but is now dealing with a more serious issue and recovery ahead of him.

Schultz has been dealing with a hamstring injury, missing Week 13 against the Broncos. He did not practice all of last week, but returns to start this week in a limited capacity. Brevin Jordan started in place of Schultz in Week 13, but Schultz should reclaim that spot once he returns. On track to play for Week 14 against the Jets, Schultz ranks as a low-end TE1.

Although Nacua was listed as a limited participant, head coach Sean McVay said “he just did everything” in the Rams’ Wednesday practice. Nacua hurt his shoulder in a Week 13 win over the Browns, but finished the game. The rookie has been a WR1/2 all season long and should continue to operate in the WR2 range despite the shoulder issue. Fantasy managers will be thrilled to hear that he is practicing and McVay’s comments provide optimism that he will play Week 14 against the Ravens.

Williams was acquired by Seattle at the trade deadline, playing in five games for the Seahawks. He was listed with a new ankle injury on Wednesday, not practicing to start the week. LB Jordyn Brooks (ankle), who left Week 13 early, also did not participate. Both Williams and Brooks are major contributors to the Seahawks defense and nursing ankle issues that could keep them out for Week 14 against the 49ers.

Adams was listed as a non-participant in practice, dealing with a knee injury. He missed Week 11, but played in both Weeks 12 and 13. Given that Adams has been practicing and playing with the injury, he is still on track to play Week 14 against the 49ers, barring a setback.

Head coach Pete Carroll initially said that Walker and Zach Charbonnet did some work in a walkthrough, but both were listed as non-participants in practice. The Seahawks’ near-indecipherable language around injuries makes it hard to distinguish how ready Walker is to begin the week, but his practice statuses later in the week will paint a clearer picture. Walker has missed two straight games for the Seahawks and is in danger of missing Week 14 against the 49ers.

Charbonnet initially hurt his knee during the Seahawks’ Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. He has filled in as the starter with Kenneth Walker out, but now both players are dealing with injuries heading into Week 14. Head coach Pete Carroll stated earlier that both did some work in a walkthrough, but neither were listed as practice participants. Charbonnet has a couple more chances to participate in practice, but his status against the 49ers is in question for now.

Miller missed both Week 10 and 11 with a shoulder injury before playing in Week 12. The Week 13 bye gave him some more time to heal, but Miller starts out the week with a DNP in practice. His practice statuses later in the week will paint a clearer picture, but Miller should still be on track to play in Week 14.

Crosby has been dealing with a knee injury this season, but has been able to play through it. After not practicing for all of Week 12, Crosby played through the knee issue, even after being listed as doubtful. The Week 13 bye gave him more rest, and while a DNP to start the week of practices is not ideal, Crosby is still slated to play for Week 14.

Mitchell popped up on the injury report with a new knee issue, keeping him out of Wednesday’s practice. He has been operating as Christian McCaffrey’s backup this season, getting much of the clean-up work in games. Mitchell’s injury does not seem major yet, but if he cannot go in Week 14, Jordan Mason is the next man up for backup duties.
