Tylan Wallace WR | CLE
Ravens' Tylan Wallace: Full practice participant Tuesday
Wallace (foot) was listed as a full practice participant on Tuesday's injury report.
Wallace was estimated as limited on Monday's report, but given his upgrade Tuesday, the 2021 fourth-round pick should be good to go against the Bengals on Thursday night. Wallace has split his time between special teams and offense through the first nine games of the regular season and has caught two passes for 31 yards over that span.

Charlie Jones WR | CIN
Bengals' Charlie Jones: Draws DNP label again
Jones (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.
Jones picked up a groin injury in the lead up to the Bengals' Week 9 game against the Raiders, which was serious enough for him to sit out. His practice participation Wednesday will give a clearer indication on whether he'll be good to go against the Ravens on Thursday.

Chris Moore WR | WAS
Chris Moore: Let go by Arizona
The Cardinals cut Moore from the practice squad Tuesday.
Moore began the regular season on the Cardinals' active roster, and after being released Oct. 9, he opted to stick around and signed with Arizona's practice squad two days later. Moore played 26 snaps on offense through the first five games of the regular season but did not see a target.

Tee Higgins WR | CIN
Bengals' Tee Higgins: Sidelined for another practice
Higgins (quadricep) is listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.
Higgins has yet to log any reps since injuring his quad in an Oct. 25 practice, and he appears to be trending toward missing a third straight game Thursday in Baltimore. The Bengals will see if Higgins is able to do anything Wednesday in what will likely be a light walk-through session before determining his availability for the Week 10 contest. Tight end Mike Gesicki has been the main beneficiary of Higgins' absence in the last two games as well as in Weeks 1 and 2, when the receiver was sidelined with a hamstring injury. In those four contests, Gesicki has produced a 22-282-2 receiving line on 27 targets.

Andy Isabella WR | SF
Andy Isabella: Cut from Steelers' practice squad
Isabella was let go from the Steelers' practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Isabella spent the first two months of the regular season without a team after failing to make the Bills' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He managed to catch on with the Steelers' practice squad Oct. 25, but he was not elevated for a game. Assuming he clears waivers, Isabella will look to join a team in need of depth at wide receiver.

Greg Dortch WR | DET
Cardinals' Greg Dortch: No catches Sunday
Dortch didn't haul in his only target and returned four punts for 65 yards during Sunday's 29-9 win over the Bears.
Dortch remains the Cardinals' No. 3 wide receiver, but in an offense that funnels most of the targets to rookie first-round WR Marvin Harrison, TE Trey McBride and RB James Conner, there often aren't enough targets otherwise for the remaining Cardinals' skill talent to yield weekly output. As evidence, Dortch has combined for a 6-57-1 line on 12 targets over the last five contests, leaving him well outside of the fantasy conversation.

Xavier Gipson WR | NYG
Jets' Xavier Gipson: Could emerge as No. 3 receiver
Gipson is expected to serve as the Jets' No. 3 receiver beginning with Sunday's game at Arizona after New York traded Mike Williams to Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
While the departure of Williams will open up some snaps at receiver, Gipson likely won't serve as an every-down player like Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams. The Jets are expected to make heavy use of two tight ends sets featuring Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert that would leave Gipson on the sideline, and 2024 third-round pick Malachi Corley could also be in the mix on three-wide sets. Gipson will continue to offer his most utility in fantasy leagues that count return yardage, as he seems locked in as the Jets' top kickoff and punt returner.

Mike Williams WR | LAC
Steelers' Mike Williams: Moving to Steel City
The Jets agreed to trade Williams to the Steelers in Tuesday, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
Pittsburgh is sending a 2025 fifth-round pick to New York for the wide receiver's services, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Despite playing in all nine games this season, Williams wasn't able to develop chemistry with Aaron Rodgers, surpassing 50 receiving yards only once and scoring no touchdowns. Williams will team up with George Pickens at the top of the Steelers' WR depth chart.

Khadarel Hodge WR | ATL
Falcons' KhaDarel Hodge: Catches one pass vs. Dallas
Hodge caught one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 27-21 win over the Cowboys.
Drake London (hip) left the game late in the first quarter and didn't return, thrusting Hodge into an expanded role. He played a season-high 45 offensive snaps, his previous high-water mark was 18, and was targeted for the first time since Week 5, when he had a game-winning touchdown in overtime versus Tampa Bay. London is considered day-to-day, but if he's forced to miss time, Hodge could sneak on fantasy radars, though Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud would be the Falcons' top wideouts.

Jonathan Mingo WR | DAL
Cowboys' Jonathan Mingo: Shipped to Dallas
The Cowboys acquired Mingo and a 2025 seventh-round draft pick from the Panthers on Tuesday in exchange for a 2025 fourth-round draft pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
The No. 39 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Mingo struggled to find his footing during his one and a half seasons in Carolina, turning in a 55-539-0 receiving line on 111 targets over 24 games. Though he was never a high-end producer during his time in college at Ole Miss, Mingo was a coveted pre-draft prospect thanks to his good size (6-foot-2, 220 pounds) as well as the intriguing athleticism he displayed at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine (4.46-second 40-yard dash time, 39.5-inch vertical leap). The Cowboys are hoping that a change in scenery will help Mingo unlock some of his potential, but his immediate outlook isn't promising with Cooper Rush slated to take over at quarterback for Dak Prescott (hamstring) in the short term. Mingo will slot in behind at least CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert on Dallas' depth chart at receiver, but he could push 2023 seventh-round pick Jalen Brooks for the No. 3 role.
