  • Chris Myarick TE | MIA

    Chris Myarick: Gets waived from IR

    The Giants waived Myarick (hand) from their injured reserve list Monday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Myarick landed on the Giants' injured reserve list prior to Week 1, and now, ahead of Week 11, he's parting ways with the team. It's not clear whether he'll be ready to play before the end of the season.

  • Evan Engram TE | DEN

    Jaguars' Evan Engram: Held in check Sunday

    Engram caught four of seven targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 34-3 loss to the 49ers.

    Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw for just 185 yards in the blowout loss, with Christian Kirk being the lone notable producer with six catches for 104 yards. Engram finished second on the team in targets but was unable to do much with those looks, setting a season low in yardage and tying a season low in receptions. The Week 11 matchup with Tennessee should present a more favorable outlook for Jacksonville's offense.

  • Lucas Krull TE | DEN

    Broncos' Lucas Krull: Bumped up from practice squad

    Krull was elevated from the Broncos' practice squad ahead of Monday's game against the Bills, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

    Krull joined Denver's practice squad in September and should receive his first game action with the team, which would be just his second career NFL appearance after suiting up for one game with the Saints in 2022. The Pittsburgh product may still have difficulty getting on the field and will be more likely to see snaps on special teams than offense.

  • Austin Hooper TE | ATL

    Raiders' Austin Hooper: Makes one reception on SNF

    Hooper caught his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.

    Hooper managed to overcome a minor calf injury that limited him in practice this past Wednesday and Thursday, but he was overshadowed by fellow tight end Michael Mayer on Sunday Night Football as the rookie played 56 of a possible 64 offensive snaps and caught his first career touchdown in the process. Hooper figures to retain the No. 2 TE role for Las Vegas against the Dolphins in Week 11.

  • Jordan Matthews: Waived by Carolina

    The Panthers waived Matthews on Monday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Less than a week after joining the active roster, Matthews is now slated to become a free agent. He played 19 snaps in Week 10 at Chicago, all on special teams.

  • Steelers' Darnell Washington: Remains limited in Week 10

    Washington secured his lone target for six yards during the Steelers' 23-19 win over the Packers on Sunday.

    Washington's snap count matched that of fellow tight end Connor Heyward on Sunday, but the rookie third-rounder had minimal production once again. Washington hasn't had more than one reception in any of his appearances this season, and he'll likely have even less of a role in the team's offense once Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) returns, which could happen as early as Sunday against the Browns.

  • Steelers' Connor Heyward: Tallies 32 yards

    Heyward secured three of four targets for 32 yards during the Steelers' 23-19 win over the Packers on Sunday.

    Heyward saw increased work once again Sunday with Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) still on injured reserve. Heyward racked up a season-high 32 yards during the narrow victory, but that production isn't enough to give him much fantasy appeal. Freiermuth could return to action as soon as the Steelers' Week 11 matchup against Cleveland on Sunday, and Heyward's offensive impact will likely be minimal once Freiermuth is back.

  • Ian Thomas TE | LV

    Panthers' Ian Thomas: Gets green light to practice

    Carolina designated Thomas (calf) for return from injured reserve Monday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The move allows Thomas to return to practice and starts the clock on a 21-day period during which the Panthers may officially activate him. Carolina's official injury reports over the week will shine some light on his potential availability for Sunday's game versus the Cowboys.

  • C.J. Uzomah TE | PHI

    Jets' C.J. Uzomah: Penalty negates teammate's TD

    Uzomah caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's 16-12 loss to the Raiders.

    Another week, another costly mistake by Uzomah. After dropping what should have been an easy touchdown in the previous game, Uzomah nullified a Breece Hall touchdown with a holding penalty in the second quarter in Vegas. The veteran tight end has yet to exceed two catches or 19 yards in a game this season.

  • Mike Gesicki TE | CIN

    Patriots' Mike Gesicki: Two catches versus Colts

    Gesicki was on the field for 46 of a possible 69 snaps in Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Colts, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Gesicki -- who caught two of his three targets in the contest for 22 yards -- continues to work in a TE timeshare with Hunter Henry (50 snaps) and Pharaoh Brown (33 snaps), a context that limits his fantasy utility to deeper formats. Through his first 10 games with the Patriots, Gesicki is averaging 2.1 catches on three targets for 18.2 yards per game.
