Henry hauled in three of four targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-31 loss at Oakland.

Henry set up his one-yard touchdown in the third quarter with a 59-yard reception. On the long pass, Henry showed off decent speed in the open field, running away from a couple of defenders. Meanwhile, Antonio Gates (hamstring) returned from a two-game absence, and came up with a touchdown catch of his own. Even though Gates is back, Henry has probably done enough to remain a part of the offense. Next week, he'll have a touch matchup against the Broncos.

Ertz caught all three targets for just 37 yards in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Lions.

Ertz was deemed healthy enough to return after sitting out the last two games with a rib injury, but he was not a large of Sunday's game plan, as the targets were distributed rather evenly among Philadelphia receivers. He was heavily involved in the season opener before he was injured, and should see his workload increase in Week 6 versus the Redskins.

James caught six of eight targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Jets.

The Steelers aired it out Sunday as they struggled to generate offense on the ground, leading to season highs in targets and receptions for James. He should be no better than the fourth or fifth receiving option on his team most weeks, but he clearly has the attention of Ben Roetlisberger in the red zone, as he already has three scores to his name this season. He will look to add to his totals in Week 6 versus the Dolphins.

Allen caught all six of his targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-23 win over the Bears.

Allen's touchdown catch came on a crucial fourth down from the 1-yard line in the first half. He found the end zone for the first time since Week 1 while also setting a season high in catches. The veteran tight end only scored once in 13 games last season, but his eight-touchdown 2014 campaign proves that he's capable of being a dangerous red-zone weapon for the Colts.

Hamlett caught one pass (one target) for a 17-yard touchdown during Sunday's loss to the Patriots.

Hamlett was activated off the practice squad earlier this week due to injuries to tight ends Randall Telfer (ankle) and Seth DeValve (knee) and was able to make his mark with his first NFL touchdown reception. Gary Barnidge is still the man in Cleveland, but Hamlett could ultimately turn into a red-zone threat.

Pruitt went down with a knee injury in Week 5 and is questionable to return, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

If he can't return, Kyle Rudolph will represent the only healthy tight end remaining for the Vikings for the remainder of the contest.

Gray has a leg injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Titans, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

Gray sits behind Jordan Cameron and Dion Sims on the Dolphins' tight end depth chart, so if he is forced to miss the rest of the game, it shouldn't affect the overall performance of Miami's offense too much. In any case, Dominique Jones is in line to take Gray's share of snaps if the latter is unable to return to Sunday's game.

Amaro (shoulder) is inactive for the Titans' Week 5 matchup Sunday against the Dolphins, John Glennon of The Tennessean reports.

Amaro had a minor breakout in Week 3 against the Raiders when Delanie Walker sat out with an injury, catching three balls for 59 yards. Walker returned to action last week, resulting in Amaro seeing a downgraded role, but he wasn't able to come away from that contest unscathed. A shoulder injury rendered him a limited participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday before he logged a full session Friday, but it wasn't enough for the Titans to clear him to play. With Amaro out, Anthony Fasano and Phillip Supernaw will serve as the backups behind Walker.

Waller was moved to the Ravens' active roster on Saturday.

Waller could see his first action of the 2016 regular season Sunday against the Redskins after serving a four-game suspension. Dennis Pitta and Crockett Gillmore figure to continue serving as the top two options in the pecking order at tight end despite Waller's return.

Uzomah's teammate Tyler Eifert (back) won't play in Sunday's game against Dallas, Paul Dehner Jr. of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports

Uzomah and Tyler Kroft both started last week against Miami, with the former logging 42 snaps and the latter handling 44 (out of 70). While the playing time split may have been even, Uzomah held a 5-0 advantage in targets and a 4-0 edge in receptions. The breakdown was similar Week 3 against Denver, making it clear Uzomah is the team's top receiving option at tight end in Eifert's absence. That being said, Eifert could be back as soon as Week 6, considering he's now dealing with a back injury that isn't thought to be overly serious, while his surgically-repaired ankle is actually healthy enough to play on.
