Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) will be limited in Wednesday's practice, per Stu Jackson. Atwell missed the Week 6 win over the Baltimore Ravens due to a knee injury, but the 26-year-old is on the right track to make his return in London this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It couldn't come at a better time for the Rams, either, with star wideout Puka Nacua (ankle) up in the air to play due to an ankle injury that he suffered on Sunday. The Rams have been optimistic about Atwell playing this weekend, but he might need to get in a full practice on Thursday or Friday to avoid taking a questionable designation into the weekend. Atwell could see more playing time if he returns to the fold against the Jags, but he'll only be in consideration as a deep-league flex play if Nacua is inactive.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday night's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, marking his second straight missed game. Before suffering the injury, Austin had started all four contests, recording 10 receptions on 17 targets for 139 yards and two touchdowns. In his absence, tight end Darnell Washington has seen an increased target share, while D.K. Metcalf continues to build strong chemistry with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Steelers will face a favorable matchup against a Bengals defense ranked 31st overall, giving their passing attack an opportunity to stay productive even without Austin on the field.
