Isaiah Neyor WR | GB
Isaiah Neyor: Moved back to practice squad
Neyor reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday.
Neyor was elevated for Saturday's 31-27 wild-card loss to the Bears and logged three of Green Bay's 71 offensive snaps without drawing a target. The Packers' 2025 season is over, so Neyor is unlikely to play again in the playoffs, as another team would have to sign him to its active roster for him to be able to do so.

Quez Watkins WR | PHI
Eagles' Quez Watkins: Lands in Philly
The Eagles signed Watkins to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Watkins signed to Philadelphia's practice squad in late September after being cut by Arizona with an injury settlement. The 27-year-old did not appear in a single game this season. The fifth-year pro will participate in the Eagles' offseason activities and attempt to earn a spot on their active roster next season.

Danny Gray WR | PHI
Eagles' Danny Gray: Inks deal with Philly
The Eagles signed Gray to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Gray joined the Eagles' practice squad in early November as additional depth at wide receiver. The 26-year-old was previously released by the team with an injury settlement prior to the start of the regular season. The third-year pro will participate in Philadelphia's offseason activities and attempt to earn a spot on its active roster next season.

Will Sheppard WR | GB
Packers' Will Sheppard: Lands with Green Bay
The Packers signed Sheppard to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Sheppard joined the Packers as an undrafted free agent this summer and was elevated to the active roster once during the regular season, but he didn't end up playing. The 23-year-old will participate in the Packers' offseason activities and attempt to earn a spot on the team's active roster next season.

Curtis Samuel WR | BUF
Bills' Curtis Samuel: Practice window opening
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Samuel's (elbow) 21-day practice window is expected to be opened this week, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Samuel has been on injured reserve since Nov. 28, but he will be eligible to rejoin his teammates at practice as the Bills prepare to travel to Denver for an AFC divisional-round game Saturday. Gabe Davis (knee) tore his ACL in the wild-card win over the Jaguars, and Tyrell Shavers suffered a knee injury that is still being evaluated, so if Samuel proves healthy enough to return this weekend, Samuel could have a meaningful role in a receiving corps that also includes Khalil Shakir, Brandin Cooks and Keon Coleman.

Tyrell Shavers WR | BUF
Bills' Tyrell Shavers: Knee injury being evaluated
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Shavers (knee) is being evaluated in the wake of Sunday's 27-24 wild-card win over the Jaguars, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.
Shavers briefly left the field Sunday to have a knee injury checked out by trainers, but he managed to retake the field, finishing the game with one catch for 14 yards (two targets). Meanwhile, McDermott has confirmed that Gabe Davis (knee) suffered a season-ending ACL tear Sunday. If Shavers is able to get fully healthy in time to face Denver in the AFC divisional round Saturday, he will stand to handle an increased role on offense due to Davis' absence.

Gabe Davis WR | BUF
Bills' Gabe Davis: Torn ACL confirmed
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Davis suffered a season-ending ACL tear during Sunday's 27-24 wild-card win over the Jaguars, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Davis' injury not only is season-ending, the timing and severity put the 26-year-old wideout's status for the beginning of the 2026 campaign in jeopardy. He secured two of three targets for 14 yards versus Jacksonville before being carted off the field in the second half. Davis is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and he may well have to complete a full recovery from his left ACL tear before getting another opportunity to sign with a team around the league.

Xavier Legette WR | CAR
Panthers' Xavier Legette: Disappoints in sophomore season
Legette caught one of four targets for eight yards during Saturday's 34-31 wild-card loss to the Rams. Additionally, he recorded 44 kick return yards.
The 2024 first-round pick from South Carolina was one of six Panthers to catch a pass from Bryce Young during Saturday's loss, finishing with the fifth-most receiving yards on the team. Across 15 regular-season appearances, Legette caught 35 of 64 targets for 363 yards and three touchdowns, finishing the year as Carolina's third-leading receiver. Heading into his third season in the NFL, Legette likely will remain a depth option in the Panthers' receiving corps following the emergence of Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker during the 2025 campaign.

Jalen Tolbert WR | DAL
Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Falls down depth chart in 2025
Tolbert caught 18 of 34 targets for 203 yards and a touchdown over 13 games in 2025.
After a career-best campaign in 2024, Tolbert headed into the season third on the depth chart at wide receiver for the Cowboys behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. The 2022 third-round pick fell out of favor after the first month of the season, however, and he was passed in the pecking order for snaps and targets by Ryan Flournoy. Tolbert is a free agent this offseason, and even with Pickens not guaranteed to return, it seems unlikely he'll be re-signed by Dallas.

Chris Moore WR | WAS
Commanders' Chris Moore: Makes 11 catches in 2025
Moore caught 11 of 23 targets for 207 yards and one touchdown while adding a nine-yard carry across 14 appearances during the 2025 regular season.
Moore began the season on the practice squad but spent most of the season on the Commanders' active roster and saw a surprisingly high amount of usage due to the team's injuries at wide receiver. That didn't amount to much production, though. He'll be a free agent ahead of his age-33 season and will likely have to compete for a roster spot somewhere in training camp.
