Tennessee signed Morgan to its practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Morgan was cut by New Orleans prior to Week 1, but now he's found a new opportunity with a different team. It might take an injury for him to be elevated to the active roster before the end of the season, though.

Head coach Sean McVay said that Rams are still gathering more information following Robinson's arrest Monday, and a decision hasn't been made regarding whether the receiver will play Sunday in New Orleans, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Robinson was arrested Monday at approximately 5:13 a.m. in Woodland Hills, Calif. on suspicion of driving under the influence after he was stopped when he was observed driving on a highway at speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour. McVay said Tuesday that he has spoken to Robinson following his arrest, but the Rams aren't yet willing to commit to the veteran wideout being available for Week 13. The 30-year-old has suited up in each of the Rams' 11 games thus far, recording 26 catches for 384 yards and six touchdowns on 50 targets. His potential absence this Sunday would free up more opportunities for Tyler Johnson and Tutu Atwell behind top receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.

Heath was targeted twice and had two receptions for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.

Heath capitalized on the lopsided score and the departure of Romeo Doubs (concussion) in the third quarter to record both his first reception since Week 5 and his first touchdown of the season. He will bump up the pecking order if Doubs is unable to play Thursday against the Dolphins, but even in that scenario he would be facing a stingy pass defense as the fifth option at his position.

Wicks was targeted twice and had one reception for 25 yards in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.

Wicks was shut out in back-to-back appearances leading up to Sunday's contest, but he got back on the board with a long reception in the fourth quarter of the game. Opportunities have been lacking for Wicks, who has just three 20-yard receptions in 2024 after racking up 11 of those across 15 regular-season games in 2023. He could see a boost in targets in Week 13 if Romeo Doubs (concussion) is unable to play, but he will enter with just three receptions for 36 yards across his last four appearances, and he will take on a Miami defense that has shut down wideouts as well as anyone.

Watson had one carry for four yards in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.

Watson entered Sunday's contest on the heels of a career-best 150-yard performance, but he was targeted only three times in Green Bay's lopsided win, and a drop on a potential 49-yard touchdown pass right before halftime proved particularly costly for fantasy players. Watson did lead Packers receivers in snaps for the first time all season in Week 12, and he could be busier than usual again if Romeo Doubs (concussion) is unable to go Thursday against the Dolphins. Either way, Watson will be facing a Miami defense that has contained wide receivers as well as any team in the league.

Palmer finished with three receptions (on eight targets) for 38 yards in Monday's 30-23 loss to Baltimore.

Palmer led the Chargers in targets, but the wideout finished just third in receptions and yardage Monday. It was actually the 24-year-old's best output since Week 9, highlighting the underwhelming nature of his performance in 2024. Palmer should only be considered a deep-league option Week 13 in a road matchup against Atlanta.

Miller brought in his only target for 14 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Miller saw a precipitous drop in playing time with Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan returning to action from their respective hamstring injuries. The Furman product went from a season-high 50 snaps in Week 10 against the 49ers to a season-low 15 (23 percent) on Sunday, but it appears the Buccaneers may continue to keep six wide receivers active on occasion down the stretch as they did against the Giants. In such an instance, Miller, who's now posted at least one catch in five straight games, would figure to continue garnering active status and working as a No. 5 or No. 6 receiver.

Palmer brought in his only target for 18 yards and returned one punt for 15 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

The second-year wideout played 17 snaps (26 percent), placing him behind Jalen McMillan (41 snaps), Mike Evans (39 snaps), Sterling Shepard (35 snaps) and Rakim Jarrett (21 snaps) in terms of the team's wideouts. Palmer figures to remain in a deep reserve role as long as injuries don't strike in front of him on the depth chart, but he's now recorded at least one catch in five of the last six contests.

Jarrett secured his only target for 30 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Jarrett logged 21 snaps (32 percent) in the lopsided victory, experiencing quite the dip in playing time with the return of both Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan from hamstring issues. Jarrett had played over 40 snaps in each of the previous two games with his pair of teammates sidelined, but as he demonstrated Sunday, his big-play ability has the potential to continue affording him a solid complementary role in an offense in need of pass-catching playmakers.

McMillan brought in one of two targets for 11 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

After garnering active status Week 10 against the 49ers but not playing any snaps, McMillan jumped into the No. 2 receiver role following the bye and led all Buccaneers wideouts with 41 snaps. However, as his final line implies, McMillan drew very little of Baker Mayfield's attention and logged only one additional target than reserves such as Trey Palmer, Ryan Miller and Rakim Jarrett. Nevertheless, the rookie is likely to continue in a starting role in a Week 13 road matchup against the Panthers.
