Glasgow (knee) was a full participant in Detroit's practice Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Glasgow managed to practice Tuesday after missing two of the team's last four games due to a knee injury. The 33-year-old is expected to make another start at center during Thursday's matchup against the Vikings.

Williams (knee) was deemed a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams sprained the MCL in his knee against Denver in Week 15 and missed this past Saturday's overtime loss against Chicago. He didn't practice at all last week, so his listing as DNP to begin Week 17 prep is a positive sign. Williams intends to take part in individual drills Wednesday, and when asked about his injury Tuesday, he stated, "Taking it slow, but definitely optimistic," per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.

Pipkins (ankle) was estimated as a full participant in the Chargers' practice Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Pipkins missed the last two games with an ankle injury but is seemingly healthy again. The 29-year-old will resume his role as a backup offensive tackle during Saturday's matchup versus the Texans.

O'Neill (heel) was estimated as a limited practice participant on Tuesday's injury report.

EDGE Analysis

The Vikings held walkthrough practices Monday and Tuesday since they are facing the Lions on Christmas Day, but the good news for O'Neill is that he upgraded from a DNP to a limited practice participant. He would avoid an injury tag for Week 17 if he were to log a full practice Wednesday. O'Neill was able to play through a heel injury during the Vikings' 16-13 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Melton is dealing with an illness and was estimated as a non-participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Melton played in Saturday's overtime loss to Chicago and logged one snap on offense along with nine snaps on special teams. There was no word prior to the contest that he was dealing with an illness, so his reduced offensive workload may simply have been a coaching decision in a game with high stakes. Green Bay plays on Saturday again this week (versus Baltimore), and Melton will likely need to practice in some capacity by Thursday to have a chance of avoiding an injury designation for that game.

The Bears signed Gordon to the practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon joined the Bears in early August as an undrafted free agent but was unable to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He'll return to Chicago as a member of the team's practice squad and provide additional depth at tight end.

Davenport (shoulder) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

EDGE Analysis

Davenport has opened the week with back-to-back limited sessions due to a shoulder injury that he picked up during the Lions' 29-24 loss to the Steelers on Sunday. The Lions will hold their last practice Wednesday, and if Davenport is a full participant in that session, he would likely avoid an injury designation for Detroit's Christmas Day clash against Minnesota.

Kennedy (abdomen) was listed as a limited practice participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report.

EDGE Analysis

Kennedy has been limited in each of the Lions' two walkthrough practices while working through an abdominal injury. He has one more opportunity to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game against the Vikings.

Al-Shaair (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Al-Shaair missed his first game of the season Sunday against the Raiders due to an ankle injury. He logged only one practice -- a limited session Thursday -- last week, so his ability to participate (albeit in a limited capacity) to begin this week is a positive sign. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Al-Shaair is expected to suit up Saturday against the Chargers.

Metcalf had his two-game suspension upheld by the league Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Metcalf was handed a two-game suspension for "conduct detrimental to the NFL" after an altercation with a fan in Detroit on Sunday, and his appeal was denied. The wide receiver will now be forced to miss the team's final two games of the regular season, and as a result, $45 million in guaranteed money on his four-year contract has now been voided. In his absence, Calvin Austin (hamstring), Adam Thielen and Marquez Valdes-Scantling will all be candidates to see increased workloads in Week 17 against the Browns.
