    49ers ILB Reuben Foster (high-ankle sprain) has shed his walking boot.

    Foster seems to be progressing quickly — he was claiming he would be ready for Week 2 — but he'll likely miss at least one more game after going down in Week 1.

    James Harrison has played just four snaps through the Steelers' first two games.


    Even with some injuries to their front seven, the Steelers have kept 39-year-old Harrison glued to the sideline. "We know what James is capable of," coach Mike Tomlin said. "James will ready himself, and there will be a time in the season when we’ll call on his services, and he’ll deliver and deliver in a big way." Harrison was excellent in 2016, generating consistent heat. Right now, the Steelers would apparently rather go with their younger players. Perhaps they view Harrison as an ace in the hole, or perhaps he started to look his age in the offseason.

    Jerry Jones said Dak Prescott (ankle) will be ready for Week 3.

    "He is going to be able to play Monday," Jones said. There never seemed to be much concern about Prescott's status, but it is still good to hear.

    Rob Kelley (ribs) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

    Kelley left Week 2 with a ribs issue, but he's merely dealing with a bruise. Though painful, Kelley is expected to play against the Raiders on Sunday night.

    Kelvin Benjamin (ribs. knee) did not practice Wednesday.

    Benjamin got crunched in the end zone against the Bills, but he stayed in the game. He admitted he's just sore. With Greg Olsen (foot) on I.R., Benjamin could be in for a heavy spike in targets as a possible Week 3 breakout.

    Sam Bradford (knee) is practicing Wednesday.

    As long as Bradford doesn't have any setbacks and his knee responds well to practice this week, he'll be out there against the Bucs on Sunday. Obviously, Bradford avoiding setbacks isn't something to take for granted.

    Rob Gronkowski (groin) is practicing on Wednesday.

    Gronkowski has already said the groin injury he suffered in the Week 2 win over the Saints is minor. He's fully expected to suit up against the Texans on Sunday.

    Danny Amendola (concussion) is also practicing Wednesday.

    Isaiah Crowell said he talked to coach Hue Jackson about getting him more carries.

    Crowell has opened the season against a pair of tough run defenses in the Steelers and Ravens and has managed just 70 rushing yards on 27 carries (2.59 YPC) along with 33 yards on two catches. Jackson wants to get him the ball more, but we've heard him say this before. The good news is the schedule softens a bit with the Colts, Bengals, and Jets on deck for the Browns, even though the Colts are second in the league in run defense after two weeks.

    Packers OLB Nick Perry will undergo surgery on his injured hand.

    The injury is only expected to sideline him a couple weeks, but it is another injury blow for a Packers defense which also could be without Mike Daniels (hip) this week. Ahmad Brooks should see more snaps with Perry out.

    Tyler Eifert (knee, back) did not practice Thursday.

    After also missing Wednesday's session, it seems unlikely Eifert is ready to go this week

    Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) confirms he didn't suffer any setbacks, expects to play "a lot more" Week 3.
