Mundt didn't receive a target in Monday's 27-24 win over the Buccaneers.

Mundt achieved fantasy relevance once this year with Tyler Higbee out of the lineup in Week 7, as he caught three passes for 48 yards. When Higbee and Gerald Everett are both active, however, Mundt has averaged just 4.7 snaps on offense per game. His main contributions will be delivered on special teams moving forward.

The Steelers signed Rader to the active roster Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Rader entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2018 and has yet to make his NFL debut. He could get a chance this week against the Ravens following news that tight end Zach Gentry was placed on injured reserve with a left knee sprain. However, Vance McDonald (illness) could return to the lineup, which may put Rader in healthy scratch territory.

Everett caught four of five targets for 27 yards during Monday's 27-24 win over the Buccaneers.

While it was another modest showing from Everett, three of his four receptions resulted in a Los Angeles first down. He continues to be involved in the passing attack, but quarterback Jared Goff spreads the ball around through the air, including to fellow tight end Tyler Higbee. Expect Everett to remain an important piece of the Los Angeles aerial attack, but it probably won't translate into reliable weekly fantasy production in most formats.

Higbee caught all four of his targets for 19 yards and added a one-yard rush during Monday's 27-24 win over Tampa Bay.

Interestingly, all four of Higbee's targets came on first downs, as head coach Sean McVay clearly leaned on the veteran tight end to create favorable distances to move the chains. However, Higbee's numbers didn't move the fantasy needle Monday, and his underwhelming season continues to drag along. Fantasy managers should probably aim higher in the majority of settings.

Sample had two catches for 29 yards on four targets in Sunday's loss to the Football Team.

Sample remains without an NFL touchdown through the first 19 games of his career. He didn't add much in the blocking aspect of the game either - he was the lowest rated offensive regular using Pro Football Focus's ratings, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

Blanton was restored back to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Blanton was previously moved to the COVID-19 list Wednesday, but he's since been cleared to return to the practice squad. He's appeared in one game this season for Los Angeles, logging four special-teams snaps.

Myarick reverted back to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

Myarick was active for Sunday's loss to the Broncos but failed to record a single snap in the contest. The second-year tight end could get another opportunity for game action in Sunday's divisional showdown with the Jets.

Fumagalli reverted back to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Fumagalli failed to haul in his lone target from Sunday's win over the Dolphins and will now return to the team's practice squad. Denver only has two healthy tight ends on the active roster currently, so Fumagalli could continue to be activated throughout the season -- should he not be claimed by another team.

Andrews was limited at Monday's walk-through due to a thigh injury.

Andrews made a sudden appearance on the Ravens' Week 5 injury report just before a matchup with the Bengals, with a thigh issue the root cause. He proceeded to suit up and score one of his six touchdowns on the season. Now with a cap on his practice reps to begin Week 12 prep, the status of Andrews bears watching in advance of Thursday's visit to Pittsburgh.

The Ravens signed Tomlinson to the practice squad Monday.

Following Nick Boyle's season-ending knee injury, the Ravens signed Luke Willson to the practice squad to add depth behind Mark Andrews. Now, they'll bring in Tomlinson to bolster the position further. Tomlinson played in one game for the Giants this season, recording just two snaps on offense.
