Ridley (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Ridley has been officially cleared to return from a one-game absence due to a hip injury. The veteran wide receiver has only five catches on 10 targets for 81 yards through six regular-season games, but he has the opportunity Sunday to operate in an expanded role due to the absence of rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate (shoulder).

Pickens (shoulder/hamstring) is listed as active Sunday against the Cardinals.

Pickens played through a shoulder issue in Week 7, but a hamstring injury was added to the Cowboys' practice report this week, limiting him on the field Wednesday through Friday and resulting in a questionable designation ahead of Sunday's matchup. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Sunday morning that Pickens is expected to play in Week 8, which now has been confirmed. With a 37-485-2 line on 58 targets through seven contests this season, Pickens has been playing second fiddle to fellow WR CeeDee Lamb (53-651-6 on 81 targets in seven appearances) in the passing game, but the former's output still has been more than useful from a fantasy standpoint.

Moore (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

Moore will suit up for the first time since Week 4, after an SC joint sprain in his shoulder kept him from playing in the Bills' last two contests prior to their Week 7 bye. The wideout was limited in practice throughout Week 8 prep before taking a designation into Sunday, but he's displayed enough progress for the Bills to clear him to return to action. In his two appearances with Buffalo in which he didn't exit early due to injury, Moore compiled 11 receptions for 167 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets.

Moore (shoulder) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens but is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Moore had missed the Bills' last two games due to an AC joint sprain in his shoulder, but he appears to be in a better spot on the health front coming out of a Week 7 bye. He was still a limited participant in practice throughout the week, but despite carrying a designation into Sunday, he appears to have demonstrated enough progress in his recovery from the shoulder issue to suit up against Baltimore. Moore will be officially cleared to play when Buffalo releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Burks (foot), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Burks sustained the foot injury during the Commanders' previous game Oct. 19 against the 49ers and doesn't appear to be back to 100 percent health, even with the benefit of a Week 7 bye. The wideout managed just two limited practice sessions this week en route to taking a designation into the weekend, but he looks to have shown enough to put himself on a path to play. Confirmation on Burks' status will arrive when Washington posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, and assuming he's cleared to play, the 26-year-old could be in line for extra opportunities in the passing game after top wideout Terry McLaurin (knee) went down with a season-ending injury against San Francisco.

Pickens (shoulder/hamstring) is expected to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Pickens was limited by dueling shoulder and hamstring injuries during the entirety of Week 8 prep, but he appears as if he'll avoid the Cowboys' inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. kickoff. He's so far put together a 37-485-2 line on 58 targets through the first seven contests of the campaign.

Ridley (hip) is in line to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

After sitting out in Week 7 due to a hip injury, Ridley kicked off Week 8 prep with back-to-back limited sessions before upgrading to full Friday and entering the weekend listed as questionable. Assuming he's deemed active about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll be working in a Titans receiving corps without top WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) for the first time this season.

Meyers (hamstring/ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Colts, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Meyers dealt with a hamstring injury during Week 8 prep, logging limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday's practice entirely. Assuming he's deemed active approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll be looking to build upon the season-high 83 receiving yards he put up in the Jaguars' last game in Week 6 against the Texans in London.

Waddle (chest) is trending in a positive direction for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Waddle made a late exit from the Broncos' Week 7 win at Arizona due to a chest injury, which held him out of practice Wednesday before limited sessions Thursday and Friday left him questionable for Week 8 action. He may need to go through a pregame warmup unscathed to be available Sunday, something that'll be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Collins (hip) has been ruled out for Sundays' game against the Buccaneers and will remain on injured reserve, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Collins isn't quite ready to make his 2026 regular-season debut despite logging a trio of full practices during Week 8 prep. He's been working through a hip injury since training camp, but his ability to practice without restrictions indicates that he's close to being cleared to play. Collins' next chance to play is Week 9 against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 8.
