Walker failed to record a single target in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.

Walker was a complete nonfactor Sunday despite playing a season-high 61 percent snap share. The second-year wideout played 25 of the Ravens' 41 offensive snaps in the contest, the second most snaps among wide receivers behind only Zay Flowers (32). The spike in Walker's playing time came on a day when teammate Rashod Bateman (ankle) was inactive. Even so, the North Carolina product was unable to earn any opportunities against Cincinnati. Walker is not a consideration for fantasy purposes as the Ravens host the Patriots in Week 16.

White (abdomen) was a full participant in Seattle's walkthrough Tuesday, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

White appears to be healthy again after being limited during Monday's walkthrough due to an abdominal injury. The 27-year-old should continue to contribute on special teams while also seeing limited snaps on offense during Thursday's matchup versus the Rams.

Whittington (back) was deemed a full participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Whittington was estimated as limited in Monday's walkthrough, but his back injury doesn't appear to be serious. Notably, starting wideout Davante Adams (knee/hamstring) has been deemed a non-participant in both walkthroughs this week, and he's very much in danger of missing Thursday's matchup against Seattle. If Adams does sit out that contest, Whittington -- along with Konata Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell and Xavier Smith -- would be a candidate for increased offensive snaps.

Williams (foot) was estimated as a limited participant for the Packers' walkthrough practice Tuesday.

Williams has missed Green Bay's last three contests due to a nagging foot issue, and his status for Week 16 is now up in the air as well. He'll get two more opportunities to manage a full practice before the Packers publish their last practice report of the week Thursday.

The Packers listed Watson (chest/shoulder) as a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.

Watson avoided a major injury after he was briefly hospitalized following a hard fall to the turf during Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos, but his availability for this Saturday's game in Chicago still appears to be very much up in the air. His absence Tuesday doesn't come as a major surprise, and he'll likely need to get in some on-field work by Thursday in order to put himself on a path to play this weekend. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that a decision on the wideout's status could be taken "up to game time," per Zach Kruse of USA Today.

Wicks (ankle) was listed as a non-participant for Tuesday's walk-through practice.

The Packers listed Wicks on their Week 15 injury report with the same ankle issue, but he played Sunday and finished with one catch for six yards on two targets while playing 28 of 66 snaps. Green Bay hasn't indicated that Wicks is dealing with any sort of setback, but the wideout's lack of activity Tuesday creates a little doubt regarding his availability for Saturday's game against the Bears. If he does play, Wicks could be primed for a larger role in the passing game with Christian Watson (chest/shoulder) looking like more of a question mark at this stage.

Burden (ankle) was a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.

Burden was one of two receivers the Bears estimated as non-participants Tuesday, with Rome Odunze (foot) also missing. While Odunze has been sidelined for the Bears' past two games, Burden has seen his playing time increase and has capitalized on his opportunities, stringing together a 10-151-0 receiving line on 13 targets. However, after tweaking his ankle in the third quarter of Sunday's 31-3 win over the Browns, the rookie wideout is being viewed as day-to-day ahead of a critical matchup with the Packers in Week 16. Burden will still have two more chances to potentially fit in some practice activity this week before the Bears decide on his availability for Saturday's game.

The Bears listed Odunze (foot) as a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.

Despite being active for Sunday's 31-3 win over the Browns, Odunze ended up missing his second consecutive contest after he aggravated the stress fracture in his foot while warming up prior to the opening kickoff. Head coach Ben Johnson suggested Monday that the Bears could look to shut down Odunze for a period of time to give him the opportunity to fully move past the foot issue, but the wideout hasn't officially been ruled out from playing in this Saturday's key NFC North matchup with the Packers. That being said, Odunze's lack of activity to begin Week 16 prep isn't an encouraging sign that he'll be ready to play.

The Steelers cut Plumlee from the practice squad Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

With Aaron Rodgers past his wrist issue, Plumlee is no longer needed as depth behind Rodgers, Mason Rudolph and rookie Will Howard. The 24-year-old Plumlee has never appeared in a regular-season NFL contest.

Tyree (undisclosed) worked out for the Steelers on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Tyree went undrafted out of Notre Dame earlier this year and signed with the Saints. However, he was injured early on during training camp and eventually cut with an injury settlement. Tyree is still waiting to make his regular-season NFL debut.
