The Titans remain hopeful that tight end Delanie Walker will play Monday night against the Steelers. Walker is working his way back from a concussion and has yet to be medically cleared to play.

If Walker is unable to suit up for Week 11, the team will likely rely on Chase Coffman, Richard Gordon and Brett Brackett, according to the Tennessean. All three have combined for only two receptions this season.

"Chase showed in the preseason … what he's been able to do in the passing game," offensive coordinator Jason Michael said. "The other two guys are able to help us in the run game. That (tight end) position has grown, so you have to do a little of everything – a little running back, a little offensive tackle and a little receiver."

Lions tight ends Eric Ebron (hamstring) and Joseph Fauria (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday, reports MLive.com. Ebron has missed three straight games, while Fauria has missed six in a row.

Detroit visits Arizona on Sunday.

Redskins tight end Logan Paulsen was limited in Wednesday practice with foot and hamstring injuries. It remains to be seen if he plays Sunday against Tampa Bay.

The Chiefs signed tight end Phillip Supernaw off the Ravens' practice squad, reports the Baltimore Sun.

Packers tight ends Andrew Quarless and Brandon Bostick both scored touchdowns in the team's 55-14 win over the Bears in Week 10.

Aaron Rodgers had plenty of production to spread around the offense on a night in which he threw six touchdowns in one half, but his first two scores went to his tight ends in the first quarter. First, Rodgers hit Bostick on fourth-and-goal from the one-yard line on the tight end's only reception of the day. Next, he connected with Quarless, who finished the game with two receptions for 10 yards, on a four-yard score after the quarterback kept the play alive with his feet on a rollout to the right side.

The Packers will look to keep rolling against the Eagles in Week 11.

Cardinals wideout Michael Floyd had a rough game Week 10 against the Rams. 

Floyd hauled in just one pass, gaining 11 yards. He was targeted four times during the contest. Jaron Brown actually finished third in receiving on the day, picking up 35 yards on three catches. Tight end John Carlson had 33 yards on two receptions. Troy Niklas caught just one pass, gaining 17 yards. Ted Ginn Jr. also caught one pass, but gained 15 yards. Rob Housler gained 11 yards on his only catch.

Floyd and the crew will take on the Lions Week 11. 

The Seahawks pass catchers did little Week 10 against the Giants.

Cooper Helfet finished second on the club in yardage with just 32 yards. All of his yards came on just one catch. Doug Baldwin had a team-high four receptions, but only gained 31 yards. Ricardo Lockette caught one ball for 16 yards. 

The three will take on the Chiefs Week 11. 

The Giants backup pass catchers did little Week 10 against the Seahawks.

Rueben Randle actually managed to pull in five balls, but only gained 39 yards. He received a team-high 10 targets. Tight end Larry Donnell hauled in four passes, picking up 26 yards. Daniel Fells caught just one pass, gaining 12 yards. 

The three will take on the 49ers Week 11. 

Saints tight end Jimmy Graham has put any concerns about the health of his shoulder in the rearview mirror with his recent performance, as he found the end zone two more times in Week 10 against the 49ers.

Graham hauled in 10 of 13 passes thrown his way in Sunday's overtime loss, but had just 76 yards, as the 49ers largely held him in check down the field. However, as has been the case since his return from that injury, he made the most of his chances in the red zone, hauling in two touchdowns to give him four over the last three games.

Graham hasn't had a reception go beyond 30 yards all season, which would be a first for his career. However, he has sustained his status as one of the most feared red-zone targets in the league, helping make up for a dip in his overall production. Graham might not be quite as good as he was a year ago, but it's hard to argue with these kinds of results, as he remains the top Fantasy option at the tight end position.

A trio of Cowboys receivers pitched in with minor contributions in a Week 10 victory over Jacksonville. Tight end Gavin Escobar caught one pass for 14 yards, wideout Cole Beasley snagged another for 11 yards and running back Lance Dunbar caught two for seven yards.

Also working his way into the score sheet was backup quarterback Brandon Weeden, who completed his only pass for eight yards.

Dallas is now on its bye week.
