Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that Coleman (wrist) won't practice Wednesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

McDermott said that Coleman -- who injured his right wrist in this past Sunday's win over the Dolphins -- is still being evaluated. Getzenberg notes that at this stage, Coleman is not ruled out for this weekend's game against the Colts, but the wideout appears set to miss some time. McDermott acknowledged as much, saying that the wrist issue could affect the rookie for "more than just this week."

Carolina signed Johnson to its practice squad Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

After trading Jonathan Mingo to Dallas on Tuesday, Carolina currently only has three healthy wide receivers on its active roster, so it makes sense that they're looking for depth at that position. Johnson is now a big step closer to making his regular-season NFL debut.

Miller played 34 of the Buccaneers' 55 snaps on offense and finished with one catch for a one-yard reception on three targets in Monday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs.

Miller finished second among Tampa Bay receivers in snap share, though he benefited from Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Mike Evans (hamstring) both being inactive for the contest. Evans will remain out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, but McMillan's potential return could result in a downturn in playing time for Miller, whose short-yardage score salvaged an otherwise uninspiring receiving line in Monday's win. Through three appearances this season, Miller has played 94 total snaps but has produced just five receptions for 59 yards on nine targets.

Evans (hamstring) was spotted working out off to the side with a trainer during Wednesday's walk-through practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

The Buccaneers are still planning on holding Evans out for a third straight game this Sunday against the 49ers, but his presence at practice -- albeit without any involvement in drills -- bodes well for his chances of being ready to return to the lineup following the team's Week 11 bye. While playing the last two games without Evans and Chris Godwin (ankle), quarterback Baker Mayfield has relied more heavily on tight end Cade Otton (21 targets) and has spread the ball around among the Buccaneers' available wideouts.

The Jaguars designated Duvernay (lower body) for return from injured reserve Wednesday.

A two-time Pro Bowl return man during the first four seasons of his career in Baltimore, Duvernay signed a two-year, $8.5 million contract with the Jaguars in the spring. He suited up in each of Jacksonville's first five games and primarily served on special teams, logging just one reception and carrying three times for 10 yards before landing on IR on Oct. 9. After sitting out the last four games, Duvernay is now healthy enough to practice, and he could be a candidate to return from IR this Sunday against the Vikings if he checks out fine during the week. Once activated, Duvernay will likely continue to provide most of his value in the return game, but he may have an opportunity to see more reps on offense with wideout Christian Kirk (collarbone) done for the season.

Bateman caught three of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos.

Bateman was on the field for 35 of the Ravens' 57 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Baltimore wideout. Despite his ample playing time, the 24-year-old was unable to get much going against the Broncos. He's endured an inconsistent season, and with the arrival of newly-acquired wideout Diontae Johnson, Bateman likely won't make for a reliable weekly fantasy option moving forward.

Johnson went without a target in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos.

Johnson was a complete non-factor in his first game with the Ravens, as the veteran wideout played just 17 of Baltimore's 57 offensive snaps in the contest. His lack of involvement wasn't a huge surprise, as head coach John Harbaugh said heading into the game that Johnson would have a light role in his season debut after being acquired from the Panthers just days prior. Going forward, the 28-year-old should become a key contributor in Baltimore's passing attack once he becomes more acclimated to the playbook, but the move to the Ravens means that he won't be a focal option in the passing game like he was during his time with the Panthers.

Mithcell caught his lone target for 22 yards in Sunday's 21-13 loss to the Vikings.

Mitchell played just five of the Colts' 54 offensive snaps, the fewest of any Indianapolis wide receiver and his lowest snap share (10 percent) of the season. The rookie wideout isn't seeing enough playing time or opportunities to maintain relevance in redraft fantasy leagues.

Nailor caught his lone target for seven yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-13 win over the Colts.

Nailor's touchdown Sunday was his fourth trip to the end zone through eight games this season. The 25-year-old continues to see steady involvement in Minnesota's offense as the No. 3 wideout, earning multiple targets in all but two games. With that said, Nailor is difficult to trust for fantasy purposes based on his inconsistent and modest production while also being touchdown-dependent. The Vikings will visit the Jaguars in Week 10.

Jarrett secured his only target for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs on Monday night.

A week after making his season debut, Jarrett saw a notable boost to 46 snaps (84 percent) to lead all of the Buccaneers' short-handed receiving corps. However, the second-year wideout saw a drop in production after generating a 3-58 line on just 20 plays from scrimmage in Week 8, despite the ongoing absences of Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (IR, ankle), as well as that of Jalen McMillan (hamstring). Even factoring in Monday's disappointing numbers, Jarrett should again have a solid opportunity in a Week 10 home matchup against the 49ers.
