The Saints elevated Pettis from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Pettis will be elevated to the Saints' active roster for a second straight week. He played 11 snaps (seven on offense, four on special teams) in Week 10 against the Falcons, finishing with one catch for eight yards while adding 26 kickoff return yards. Pettis will likely reprise his role as the Saints' primary kickoff returner against the Browns on Sunday.

The Seahawks signed White from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

White's lone elevation from the practice squad came in Week 9 against the Rams, when he caught two passes (on three targets) for 44 yards. White is unlikely to see much playing time on offense, especially with DK Metcalf returning from a two-game absence due to a knee injury, though the former could contribute on special teams.

The Browns elevated Toney from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

After failing to make the Chiefs' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, Toney signed with the Browns on the practice squad Sept. 9. The 2021 first-round pick will make his 2024 regular-season debut against the Saints on Sunday, though it's unclear how involved he'll be on offense. Across 13 regular-season games with Kansas City in 2023, Toney registered 27 catches (on 38 targets) for 169 yards and one touchdown.

The Raiders elevated Marshall from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Marshall was signed to the Raiders' practice squad Oct. 22 after being let go by the 49ers one week earlier. The 2021 second-round pick is set to make his 2024 regular-season debut, though he's unlikely to see heavy usage on offense, as he's listed behind Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker, DJ Turner and Ramel Keyton on the Raiders' wide receiver depth chart.

Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that the status of Lamb -- who was added to the injury report Saturday with a back injury and is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Texans -- is "not of high concern," Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

McCarthy's comments offer some encouragement for Lamb's chances of playing in Week 11, but fantasy managers should still be on the lookout for more information well before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff on Monday. The fifth-year wide receiver has missed just one game in his career, all the way back in the 2021 season. Assuming Lamb is available Monday, he'll once again be working with quarterback Cooper Rush, who is making his second start in a row with Dak Prescott (hamstring) lost for the season. Lamb drew 10 targets in Dallas' Week 10 loss to the Eagles but was contained to six catches for a season-low 21 yards.

Boyd was added to the injury report Saturday with a back injury and is now questionable for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

The veteran has failed to record a reception in either of the past two games despite playing a total of 52 offensive snaps during that frame. It remains to be seen what his status will be for Sunday, but if Boyd misses time then Jha'Quan Jackson and Bryce Oliver likely could see additional snaps.

Lamb was added to the injury report Saturday with a back injury and is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Texans, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

This is a significant development given Lamb did not appear on the injury report at any point throughout the week. We'll have to await more information before the 8:15 p.m. ET primetime kickoff Monday. Given Lamb's status as one of the best wide receivers in the league and the surprising injury development, fantasy managers should expect at least one more update regarding his status before games kickoff Sunday.

Wilson was not targeted in Thursday's 26-18 win over the Commanders.

Wilson scored his first career touchdown in Week 10 but played only 18 offensive snaps that game and was targeted only once. His role wasn't much smaller in Week 11, dropping to 13 snaps and zero targets. He's now gone untargeted in half of the Eagles' 10 games this season, including in five of the last six.

Dotson finished with one catch for eight yards in Thursday's win over the Commanders.

Dotson has now finished with exactly one catch in three straight games. That's technically better than average for him this season, as he's caught nine passes through 10 games, an average of 0.9 per contest.

Aiyuk had surgery to repair the ACL and other damage in is right knee earlier this week, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.

Aiyuk sustained at least ACL and MCL tears in that knee during a Week 7 loss to the Chiefs, so Lombardi's report indicates other areas may have been impacted in the hit that he took just before halftime in that game. Medical science has reached a point that Aiyuk could make enough progress in his recovery to be ready for Week 1 of the 2025 season, but additional damage to his right knee on top of what is known may delay his next game action. With Aiyuk out for the season, Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall will be the primary wide receivers for QB Brock Purdy the rest of the way.
