Head coach Andy Reid said that Thornton (concussion) won't take part in Tuesday's practice, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Thornton entered concussion protocol following the Chiefs' Week 15 loss to the Chargers and wasn't available for this past Sunday's loss to the Titans. The wide receiver still appears to be dealing with symptoms of the concussion and is looking unlikely to be available for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

Remigio (knee) will not participate in Tuesday's practice, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Remigio was a full participant in Monday's session, so the downgrade to DNP is a bad sign for the returner's status ahead of Thursday night's game against the Broncos. The lead kick and punt returner will have one more opportunity to upgrade his practice participation, and if he cannot, he will likely have to miss Thursday's contest.

Head coach Andy Reid said that Rice (concussion) won't participate in Tuesday's practice, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Rice hasn't practiced in any fashion since reporting concussion symptoms following Kansas City's Week 15 loss to the Chargers. Given that he's unlikely to clear the five-step concussion protocol prior to Thursday's matchup with the Broncos, Rice looks on track to miss a second straight game.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel confirmed Tuesday that Boutte is in concussion protocol, Ben Volin of The Boston Globe reports.

Boutte was unable to return to this past Sunday's 28-24 win over the Ravens after checking out of the game in the fourth quarter to be evaluated for a head injury. With Boutte now having been diagnosed with a concussion, he could face an uphill battle to clear the five-step protocol in advance of the Patriots' Week 17 game against the Jets. Boutte's potential absence could free up more playing time out wide for rookie Kyle Williams, who had previously seen his largest snap shares of the season in Weeks 10 and 11 while Boutte was sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Johnson secured his only target for minus-1 yard in the Buccaneers' 23-20 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

The rookie's minimal role persisted in Sunday's loss, with Johnson seeing the field on just 25 percent (16 snaps) of the Buccaneers' offensive plays. The recent return of Mike Evans and season debut of Jalen McMillan has predictably pushed Johnson down the depth chart, where he projects to remain for the final two games of the regular season and in the postseason, if Tampa Bay advances.

McMillan brought in two of three targets for 15 yards and rushed once for one yard in the Buccaneers' 23-20 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

Playing in just his second game of the season, McMillan had a modest role, albeit within the context of a day in which Baker Mayfield threw for just 145 yards and averaged 5.6 yards per attempt. McMillan did enjoy a solid snap share relative to the rest of the team's front-line receivers, as his 34 snaps (53 percent) were just two behind Emeka Egbuka and six and eight fewer than Chris Godwin and Mike Evans, respectively. McMillan should continue essentially splitting the No. 3 role with Egbuka during a favorable Week 17 road matchup against the Dolphins.

Bech caught two of three targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

Bech filled the WR2 role behind Tre Tucker after Tyler Lockett exited Sunday's contest early with a wrist injury, and Bech could see a similarly increased level of involvement against the Giants in Week 17 if Lockett remains sidelined. Bech has caught at least two passes in four consecutive games, but he's yet to find the end zone as a rookie.

Thornton was not targeted in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

Thornton played just four offensive snaps in the Raiders' ninth consecutive defeat, while fellow rookie receiver Jack Bech caught two of three targets for 43 yards in the WR2 role behind Tre Tucker. Thornton has not caught a pass since Week 13, and he's even ceded playing time to punt returner Alex Bachman.

Robinson had two receptions on as many targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 48-27 win over Indianapolis.

Robinson finally hit pay dirt with the 49ers after being held out of the end zone in his first 11 appearances with the club he signed with this past offseason. The veteran wideout's usage didn't increase with WR Ricky Pearsall (ankle/knee) sidelined Monday, but he was the beneficiary of one of QB Brock Purdy's five touchdown strikes. Even factoring in the rare score, Robinson simply isn't a big enough part of San Francisco's game plan to warrant fantasy consideration in Week 17.

Bourne had three receptions (on five targets) for 27 yards in Monday's 48-27 win over the Colts.

Bourne was inserted into the starting lineup in place of injured teammate Ricky Pearsall (ankle/knee) and finished fourth in team targets. The 29-year-old Bourne was unable to recreate the gaudy receiving numbers we saw in Weeks 5 and 6 when he was asked to start in place of injured starters then. If Pearsall remains sidelined against the Bears and TE George Kittle (ankle) also is unable to go, then that scenario could produce enough meat on the bone for Bourne to eat in Week 17.
