Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Waddle may have suffered a high-ankle injury during Sunday's 22-20 win against the Cowboys, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Waddle first departed in Week 16 due to an eye injury, but after he was cleared to return, he eventually exited again due to what was called a shin issue at the time. After further testing, the Dolphins are honing in on the nature of the concern, and if he's diagnosed with the injury mentioned by McDaniel on Monday, Waddle could be in line for an absence of some kind. Wednesday's practice report will reveal how much work, if any, Waddle was able to handle as the team begins prep for Sunday's showdown at Baltimore.

Miller caught his only target for 15 yards during Sunday's 29-10 win over the Colts.

Miller played a season-low seven offensive snaps but caught his first pass since Week 12. From Weeks 5-12, Miller caught seven of eight targets for 76 yards and two scores, but outside of that stretch, he has secured just two of six targets for 19 yards.

Jefferson caught one of three targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 29-10 win over the Colts.

Jefferson saw his most targets since Week 9 but recorded just one catch. Across 10 games with the Falcons, Jefferson has caught seven of 20 targets for 69 yards. In five appearances with the Rams to start the campaign, Jefferson secured eight of 15 targets for 108 yards.

The 49ers signed Snead to their active roster from their practice squad Monday.

Snead will provide extra depth at receiver for Monday's matchup versus the Ravens as Jauan Jennings (concussion) is out. Snead had already been elevated the maximum of three times from the practice squad, so San Francisco had to sign him to the active roster in order for the 31-year-old to be eligible to play.

Hodge caught his only target for five yards during Sunday's 29-10 win over the Colts.

Hodge has caught exactly one pass in three straight games, totaling 33 receiving yards during that stretch. Hodge has been playing around 20 offensive snaps per game since Atlanta's Week 11 bye, but he's not producing enough to crack fantasy relevance.

Watson caught four of six targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 20-14 loss to the Raiders.

His seven-yard TD grab late in the fourth quarter gave Kansas City a shot at stealing the win, but the defense couldn't get a stop on Las Vegas' ensuing possession. Watson has only three touchdowns on the season, but all three have come in the last six games, as he's established a little trust with Patrick Mahomes. The 27-year-old wideout has already put together a career-best campaign with 26 catches (on 49 targets) for 419 yards.

Adams gathered in just one of six targets for four yards during Monday's 20-14 win in Kansas City.

Chiefs cornerback L'Jarius Sneed had the unenviable task of covering Adams, and the result was the wide receiver's quietest outing of the season. It was a far cry from the 8-101-1 line on 12 targets that Adams put together in a Week 15 win against the Chargers, and he also remains 28 yards shy of his fourth consecutive 1,000-yard campaign with two games to play in the regular season. He'll look to get back on track Sunday at Indianapolis.

Rice caught six of 12 targets for 57 yards in Monday's 20-14 loss to the Raiders.

The rookie saw a season high in targets and led Kansas City in catches and receiving yards, but Patrick Mahomes didn't have enough time in the pocket to let many downfield routes develop for Rice. The wideout still hauled in enough passes to set a new franchise rookie record for receptions in a season, with his 74 (and counting) surpassing Dwayne Bowe's 70 catches from 2007. Rice also has 811 yards, giving him an outside chance at breaking Bowe's record of 995 from that same season, but he'll need a big performance Week 17 against the Bengals to do it.

Treadwell has been elevated to the Ravens' active roster for Monday's game against the 49ers.

Treadwell is being elevated for a third and final time, meaning in order for him to appear in another game with Baltimore the team will have to sign him to the 53-man roster. The veteran hasn't played since Week 5, and he wasn't targeted in either of his other appearances with Baltimore this year. Zay Flowers (foot) is questionable for Monday's game, while starters Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham are both fully available for the Ravens.

Lazard didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 30-28 win over the Commanders.

Lazard was on the field for only 27 percent of offensive snaps while Jason Brownlee (82 percent) saw most of the playing time opposite Garrett Wilson (96 percent). Lazard hasn't topped 21 receiving yards in a game since Week 8, and his modest usage will make it tough to bounce back Thursday in Cleveland.
