Tyrell Williams, Wide Receiver, San Diego Chargers (knee) - Like Benjamin, Williams missed practice on both Wednesday and Thursday before being a full particpant on Friday. He too is labelled as questionable for the game but it has been reported that he'll play. He'll be active.

Robert Woods, Wide Receiver, Buffalo Bills (foot) - Woods has been dealing with a foot injury for weeks now but was limited in practice all week. As with the past couple of weeks, Roberts will be fine come Sunday and will suit up.
Delanie Walker, Tight End, Tennessee Titans (groin) - Walker revealed that he had further injured his groin earlier this week and did not practice on Friday. He is labelled as questionable and all signs point to this being a strict game-time decision. Be sure to check back in Sunday.
Jimmy Graham, Tight End, Seattle Seahawks (knee) - Graham had practiced all week before being downgraded to limited on Friday. It is a concern, but he is labelled as questionable but should end up playing. Play him as you normally would.

Dwayne Allen, Tight End, Indianapolis Colts (ankle) - After missing the previous two games with an ankle injury, Allen practiced all week including a full practice on Friday. The team admitted he is less than 100% and could be used as more of a blocker to start off than a receiver. Be wary of him this weekend.
Hunter Henry, Tight End, San Diego Chargers (knee) - Henry suffered a knee injury last weekend but was able to play through it. This week, however, Henry has not practiced at all this week and has been ruled out for week nine. He is week-to-week.
