San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel Sr.: Questionable (calf)

#49ers WR Deebo Samuel (calf) is again participating in practice on Friday. Would seem to give him at least a shot to play on Sunday.

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love: Questionable (knee)
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday "I'm sure [Love] will be limited... then work it day-by-day" after his injury late in Week 1. He was limited but practiced throughout the week and looks more likely to be playing than not against the Vikings.
Minnesota Vikings WR Jordan Addison: Healthy (ankle)
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday he was "optimistic" Addison will play against Green Bay on Sunday. He's been practicing all week and is off the Vikings' injury report.

Smith left the field in the fourth quarter after sustaining a hard hit against the New Orleans Saints. He did not practice through the week and will not suit up against the Buccaneers.
San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle: Questionable (hamstring)
Kittle was a mid-week add to the injury report ahead of Week 3. He returned to practice in a limited fashion on Wednesday and Thursday before practicing on Friday. He is likely a game-time decision.
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III: Questionable (oblique)
Walker III missed Week 2 and Week 3 but returned to practice in a limited fashion this week. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said he is optimistic about Walker III playing in Week 4.
Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta: Questionable (ankle)
LaPorta suffered a sprained ankle in Week 3 and Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he is day-to-day. He practiced on Friday which is a good sign for his availability in Week 4 against the Seahawks.
Lions TE Sam LaPorta was a full participant in practice today. Good sign for him to play Monday night against the Seahawks.
