Mecole Hardman WR | BUF
Bills' Mecole Hardman: Practice window opens
Hardman (calf) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
The veteran wideout from Georgia has been sidelined for the Bills' last four games after sustaining a calf injury in the Week 11 win over the Buccaneers, but it now appears he's nearing a return. Hardman will likely contribute as one of Buffalo's top kick and punt returners once fully healthy, though he must still be activated to the team's active roster in order to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

Drake London WR | ATL
Falcons' Drake London: Still day-to-day, will practice
Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said Wednesday that London will participate in practice and remains day-to-day, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Morris expressed optimism Monday about London's chances of retaking the field for Sunday's road matchup against the Cardinals, and it appears the star wideout will take a tangible step in the right direction Wednesday. In all likelihood, London will be a limited participant at practice Wednesday, but if he's able to upgrade to full on field-reps even once in Week 16, he could avoid an injury designation entirely for Sunday's matchup.

David Moore WR | CAR
Panthers' David Moore: Designated for return to practice
The Panthers announced Wednesday that Moore (elbow) has been designated to return from IR and had his 21-day practice window opened, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Moore can be activated from IR at any point within his 21-day practice window, making Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers his earliest tentative return date. When officially back to full health, Moore will resume handling a depth role in Carolina's wide receiver corps. He practiced in full Wednesday.

Marvin Harrison Jr. WR | ARI
Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Takes part in walkthrough
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Harrison (heel) will participate in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Gannon said Harrison is doing "good." The second-year pro has missed two straight games due to a heel injury suffered Week 16, but Gannon has stated that Harrison is expected to play again this season. In order to make his return Sunday versus the Falcons, Harrison may have to prove himself healthy enough to handle full practice reps at least once in Week 16.

Britain Covey WR | PHI
Eagles' Britain Covey: Logs first offensive snaps of 2025
Covey went without a target while playing four of the Eagles' 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders. He also returned three punts for 22 yards.
Sunday's contest marked the first time Covey received snaps on offense in his three appearances since the Eagles signed him off their practice squad Nov. 27. The 28-year-old is merely a depth piece at receiver and will continue to offer most of his value in the return game.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | MIA
Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: No catches in Week 16
Wilson went without a target while playing 10 of the Dolphins' 50 snaps on offense in Monday's 28-15 loss to the Steelers.
After being a healthy inactive in Weeks 6 and 7 once he overcame a knee injury, Wilson has suited up in seven consecutive games for Miami. However, Wilson has yet to carve out much of a role in the passing game and hasn't played more than one-third of the offensive snaps in any of his appearances. He's thus far been limited to three catches for 25 yards on four targets over his seven outings.

D'Wayne Eskridge WR | MIA
Dolphins' Dee Eskridge: Returns three kicks in Week 15
Eskridge went without a target while playing eight of the Dolphins' 50 snaps offense and returned three kickoffs for 74 yards in Monday's 28-15 loss to the Steelers.
Eskridge's 16 percent offensive snap share placed him fifth among Dolphins wideouts, trailing Jaylen Waddle (84 percent), Malik Washington (56), Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (36) and Cedrick Wilson (20). The fifth-year receiver should continue to be active on game days due to his role as a return man, but he's not expected to see much involvement on offense over the final three games of the campaign.

Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG
Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Barely plays in Week 15
Hyatt failed to haul in his lone target while playing four of 68 snaps on offense in Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Commanders.
A healthy inactive for the Giants' previous two contests, Hyatt suited up Sunday while New York was without Gunner Olszewski (concussion). Olszewski's absence didn't free up many opportunities on offense for Hyatt, whose six percent snap share placed him fourth among Giants receivers.
-
Dont'e Thornton Jr. WR | LV
Raiders' Dont'e Thornton: Not targeted against Philadelphia
Thornton failed to record a single target in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles.
Thornton played just eight of the Raiders' 42 offensive snaps, behind fellow wide receivers Tre Tucker (39), Jack Bech (34) and Tyler Lockett (32). The rookie wideout has had an underwhelming start to his career, recording just eight receptions on 25 targets for 123 yards in 12 appearances. Thornton should continue to develop, but it appears the Raiders are unlikely to expand his role in the final stretch of the season. The Tennessee product remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Texans.
-
Tre Tucker WR | LV
Raiders' Tre Tucker: Held catchless in blowout loss
Tucker failed to secure any of his three targets in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles.
Tucker was held without a catch for the first time all season, despite playing 93 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps, the most of any Las Vegas pass catcher. The 24-year-old wideout has been quiet in recent weeks, failing to score a touchdown or record at least 30 receiving yards since Week 11. Tucker's lack of significant production is directly tied to the Raiders' offensive struggles as a whole, which has limited the upside of most Las Vegas skill position players with the exception of tight end Brock Bowers. The Cincinnati product is best left out of fantasy lineups down the stretch, and he'll have a tough test in Week 16 when the Raiders visit the Texans and their formidable defense.
