Seals-Jones was untargeted over 31 snaps in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots in Week 8.

Seals-Jones was the position leader in snaps for the second straight week, followed by Pharaoh Brown (29) and Demetrius Harris (13). He's blipped on the radar a couple of times this season, most recently catching three passes on six targets with a 31-yard touchdown in Week 6. He also had an 82-yard game with a score in Week 4's romp over the Ravens. The Browns don't have a tight end in the top 50 in receptions, but a Cleveland tight end has accounted for five of quarterback Baker Mayfield's six touchdowns. At some point, David Njoku (wrist) could return to dominate the position, but that won't happen until Week 12 at the earliest.

Orndoff has agreed to join the Eagles' practice squad, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Orndoff spent training camp with the Buccaneers but was unable to make it through final cuts. He will now look to make an impression with the Eagles. The jouneyman has yet to suit up for an NFL game in his career.

Daniels (ankle) was estimated to be a non-participant on Monday's injury report, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Daniels rejoined the Cards from the practice squad in early October and has primarily been used on special teams this season. The 24-year-old's lack of participation may not be a major indicator of his availability for Thursday, as Arizona had nine DNPs on the injury report.

Higbee caught his only target for eight yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over Cincinnati.

Higbee started against the Bengals and played 34 of 62 offensive snaps. He's now been held to an eight-yard reception in consecutive games and hasn't made a notable fantasy impact since finding the end zone in Week 1 against Carolina.

Everett caught two of his three targets for just 15 yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over Cincinnati.

While the third-year tight end has been a little inconsistent the past five weeks, he's still totaled a respectable 20 receptions for 254 yards and two touchdowns. The next step for Everett is becoming a factor week in, week out. Being limited to 32 offensive snaps Sunday definitely contributed to his poor showing, but it was probably just a blip on the radar. Everett topped 50 snaps in five of the previous six games, after all.

Oliver caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's win over the Jets.

Offensive coordinator John DeFilippo indicated the rookie third-round pick would be more involved in Week 8, but he ended up seeing only a slight uptick in snaps and again worked behind starter Seth DeValve as the team's second tight end. No. 3 tight end Ben Koyack actually only played one fewer snap, though he wasn't targeted. Oliver and DeValve have combined for three catches and 17 yards in the last two games, keeping them both out of fantasy consideration until they become more involved.

Thomas caught his only target for 17 yards during Sunday's 31-26 victory over the Giants.

Logging just seven snaps on offense, Thomas's playing time again paled in comparison to that of T.J. Hockenson (42) and Jesse James (22). This time he at least made a dent in the stat sheet after failing to do so the past two games, but Thomas probably is at least a Hockenson injury away from fantasy relevance.

Hockenson caught his only target for 21 yards during Sunday's 31-26 victory over the Giants.

Despite a soft matchup, Hockenson didn't see many passes come his way. Instead, he watched Danny Amendola serve as Matthew Stafford's favorite short-range weapon. Playing time isn't the issue with Hockenson -- he saw almost double the offensive snaps of the next-busiest tight end in Jesse James -- but rather it's Stafford's propensity to spread the ball around. As long as Amendola, Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones stay healthy, it will continue to be difficult to trust Hockenson as anything more than a low-floor, somewhat-high-upside fantasy play.

Knox was targeted just once with no catches during Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

It was the rookie's first career game where he did not have at least one reception, though the end result is perhaps not as surprising as the first glance at the empty line, given that starter Tyler Kroft is back in action and both teams were forced to throw in gusty winds. Knox was a trendy pickup a few weeks ago following a couple of decent games, but sharing time with Kroft is going to make consistent production for either player a tough task, especially when you consider the Bills offer an unpolished passing attack.

Tomlinson was on the field for 31 of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Browns.

Tomlinson was not targeted in the game and currently is off the fantasy radar in his role behind Ben Watson. Additionally, his workload figures to take a hit once Ryan Izzo (concussion) and/or Matt LaCosse (knee) are able to return to action.
