Dolphins promoted senior passing game coordinator Bobby Slowik to offensive coordinator.

Slowik drew fleeting interest in the offensive coordinator market after a failed stint in the same position with the Texans, interviewing with the Eagles and Dolphins for their respective vacancies. He ultimately remained with the Dolphins following a year as their senior passing game coordinator, giving the Kyle Shanahan protege his second look at play calling duties at the professional level.

Brian Branch

DET Defensive Back #32

Lions coach Dan Campbell said it will take a few weeks for S Brian Branch (Achilles) to ramp up before playing on game day.

Branch has officially resumed practicing, but he has a 21-day practice window to bring himself up to speed. The team has handled Branch’s recovery responsibly thus far. He is unlikely to be rushed out there, no matter how poorly the Lions’ defense is playing. We do not expect him to face the Cardinals in Week 5.

Chase McLaughlin (groin) will play in Week 5 against the Cowboys.

McLaughlin had a hip/groin issue pop up during practice this week but has since been cleared to play on Thursday. With the offense struggling to move the ball under Jalon Daniels, McLaughlin is not on the fantasy radar for Week 5.

Baker Mayfield (thumb) will not play in Week 5 against the Cowboys.

This was just a formality as Mayfield is expected to miss between three and six weeks with a dislocated thumb. Jalon Daniels will make his second start tomorrow against the Cowboys. Daniels struggled through the air in Week 4, throwing for just 148 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. He did, however, add 55 yards on the ground. His legs will keep him in the QB2 mix for Week 5.

Jonathan Greenard (ankle) was not seen at Wednesday’s practice.

Greenard is reportedly considered day-to-day after suffering an ankle injury in Week 4. A DNP would put him on the wrong side of questionable for Week 5. Safety Marcus Epps was also absent from practice. He suffered a groin injury in practice last week and did not suit up on Sunday. He will likely miss this week’s contest as wel.

ESPN’s Brooke Pryor reports that Michael Pittman (foot) was in “the locker room with his left foot propped up on a scooter.”

Pittman has been playing through a foot injury this season and was seen participating in team stretches earlier today. Although the scooter use is alarming, this is likely just load management. Pittman is a boom-bust FLEX against the Colts this weekend.

Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was not present at Wednesday’s practice.

The Eagles will drop their official injury report later today, but this can be chalked up as a DNP for Barkley. He was already considered week-to-week after suffering a hamstring injury on Sunday, so today’s DNP doesn’t come as a surprise. He is a long-shot to play in Week 5. With Tank Bigsby on IR, Will Shipley will lead the backfield versus Jacksonville. He profiles as a low-end RB3.

Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell said LT Christian Darrisaw (concussion) will not practice on Wednesday.

O’Connell also said that RT Brian O’Neill (undisclosed) will be limited. The Vikings recently placed LG Donovan Jackson (knee) on injured reserve. The offensive line is very banged up at the moment.

Zack Baun (concussion) returned to practice Wednesday.

Baun entered the league’s concussion protocol last week and was unable to practice at all. His return means he is making progress through the protocol and should be able to play in Week 5. On the other hand, fellow lineback Jihaad Campbell is not expected to practice with an unknown injury. It’s still a net positive injury report for Philly, but far from ideal.

Dallas Goedert (knee) returned to practice Wednesday.

It’s Goedert’s first practice since going down with a knee injury in Week 2. Even a limited session today puts him on track to suit up for Philly’s Week 5 game against the Jags. With DeVonta Smith (hamstring) unlikely to play, Goedert could be in line for a large role right away. He will be on the TE1/2 border for Week 5 if he is cleared for action.
