Tank Dell WR | HOU
Texans' Tank Dell: Questionable for Sunday
Dell (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Lions after being limited in practice Friday.
Dell wasn't on the Texans' injury report Wednesday or Thursday, so his addition Friday is notable. Meanwhile, fellow WR Nico Collins (IR, hamstring) was limited in his return to practice Friday and carries a questionable game status as well. Look for added context with regard to the duo's Week 10 availability to arrive no later than Saturday night or early Sunday via the usual posting of weekly injury updates from national reporters, but the Texans' 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday night complicates things from a fantasy perspective.

CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL
Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Cleared to play
Lamb (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Lamb was able to rejoin last week's loss to Atlanta after suffering an AC joint sprain and will now play through the injury with Cooper Rush filling in for Dak Prescott (hamstring) at quarterback this Sunday. It isn't ideal to be playing through an injury and catching passes from a backup QB against a red-hot defense, but Lamb's talent and steady volume mean fantasy managers would be wise to keep him in lineups all the same. The Cowboys listed him as a full practice participant Friday, although their session was merely a walkthrough.

DeVonta Smith WR | PHI
Eagles' DeVonta Smith: No injury designation
Smith (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Dallas.
Smith closed out the week with a full practice and said afterward that he'd be fine to play this Sunday. The final injury report confirms his optimism, giving QB Jalen Hurts all his key pass catchers with A.J. Brown having quickly recovered from a knee injury and TE Dallas Goedert now back from his hamstring issue.

Drake London WR | ATL
Falcons' Drake London: Looking good for Sunday
Falcons coach Raheem Morris said after Friday's practice that he "felt good" about London (hip) playing Sunday against the Saints, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
London is listed as questionable for the game after being a limited practice participant throughout the week. The optimism for Morris is a good sign but doesn't necessarily preclude a game-time decision ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Not playing Sunday
Wilson (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Falcons.
Already without Chris Olave (concussion), Wilson won't be available to the Saints offense either after being listed as a non-participant during the entirety of Week 10 prep. That leaves Mason Tipton, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Jermaine Jackson as the available wide receivers on the Saints' active roster, while Dante Pettis, Equanimeous St. Brown and Kevin Austin are candidates to be elevated from the practice squad.

Adonai Mitchell WR | NYJ
Colts' Adonai Mitchell: Expected to see elevated snaps
With Michael Pittman (back) ruled out, Mitchell is expected to see elevated offensive snaps in Sunday's game against the Bills, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.
"He's improving, so looking forward to him playing this week," coach Shane Steichen said of Mitchell. The rookie played a season-low five offensive snaps in last Sunday night's loss to the Vikings, but he's expected to bump up the depth chart alongside Josh Downs and Alec Pierce, and Ashton Dulin also will see playing time as a plus blocker in the run game. Mitchell has big-play ability but has been unable to show it yet in the NFL, having failed to reach 40 receiving yards in any game this season.

Chris Olave WR | NO
Saints' Chris Olave: Ruled out for Week 10
Interim coach Darren Rizzi said Friday that Olave (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Falcons, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Rizzi also told Hendrix that a stint on injured reserve is "on the table" for Olave as the wide receiver meets with specialists to determine the best course of action after he suffered a concussion this past Sunday at Carolina that resulted in a visit to the hospital. The Saints have a Week 12 bye on the schedule, so it likely would behoove them to make an IR decision this week with the four-game caveat in mind. With Cedrick Wilson (shoulder) also ruled out for Week 10, Mason Tipton, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Jermaine Jackson are the healthy wide receivers on the Saints' active roster.

Curtis Samuel WR | BUF
Bills' Curtis Samuel: Ready for Sunday
Samuel (pectoral) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest at Indianapolis.
Samuel sat out Week 8 in Seattle due to a pectoral injury, but he was able to suit up this past Sunday versus the Dolphins, when he failed to haul in his only target, Despite being limited in all three Week 10 practices, he'll be available Sunday along with Khalil Shakir and Mack Hollins (shoulder). Meanwhile, Keon Coleman (wrist) has been ruled out, and Amari Cooper (wrist) is listed as questionable.
-
Mack Hollins WR | NE
Bills' Mack Hollins: Clear for Week 10
Hollins (shoulder) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Indianapolis.
Hollins has been managing a shoulder injury for the past five weeks, but he's suited up on the previous four occasions en route to a 6-38-2 line on eight targets during that stretch. The Bills ruled out Keon Coleman (wrist) for Week 10, and Amari Cooper (wrist) is listed as questionable, leaving Khalil Shakir, Hollins and Curtis Samuel (pectoral) as the healthy wide receivers on the Bills' active roster.
-
Amari Cooper WR | LV
Bills' Amari Cooper: Questionable for Week 10
Cooper (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Indianapolis.
Cooper followed the exact same practice regimen for a second week in a row -- he was limited on all three reports due to a wrist injury en route to a questionable designation. He subsequently was held out of this past Sunday's win against the Dolphins, so his status truly is up in the air for Week 10 action. With Keon Coleman (wrist) ruled out, Khalil Shakir, Mack Hollins (shoulder) and Curtis Samuel (pectoral) are the healthy wide receivers on the Bills' active roster.
