Miami elevated Conner from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against Washington.

Conner will be promoted to the Dolphins' gameday roster for the third time this season, as he suited up for back-to-back games against Carolina and Philadelphia back in October. The 25-year-old ultimately did not record an offensive statistic while primarily playing on special teams across these two contests. If he's ruled active pregame, Conner should serve a similar role behind fellow tight ends Durham Smythe, Julian Hill and Tyler Kroft in Week 13.

Brown (knee) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Broncos, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Brown is officially listed as questionable for Week 13 while he works his way back from the knee contusion that has sidelined him for the past two games, but he was able to log consecutive limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday's session. Barring any setbacks during pregame warmups, however, the 27-year-old is expected to be formally cleared for Sunday's game upon the release of the Texans' inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. In the two games prior to his absence, Brown logged 13 receptions (on 14 targets) for 325 yards and a touchdown.

Dell (calf), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Broncos, is expected to play, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

Dell was a limited participant in practice both Thursday and Friday, so it always seemed as if the rookie would be available for the pivotal matchup from a seeding perspective. Fantasy managers should still check on his availability prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but it's possible Dell could see an uptick in targets if Noah Brown (knee) is ultimately unable to play.

The Broncos activated Johnson (hamstring) to their active roster Saturday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Johnson is set to appear in his first game since Week 7 this Sunday, and it now seems as if he's completely moved past his hamstring issue. The 25-year-old wideout has appeared in seven games for the Broncos this season, catching eight of his 13 targets for 122 yards and three touchdowns.

The Saints elevated Callaway to their active roster Saturday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

The 25-year-old wideout signed with New Orleans' practice squad just under two weeks ago, and he's now in line to make his first appearance since 2022 this Sunday. Callaway's elevation will help the Saints ensure depth at wide receiver, as the team is preparing to be without both Rashid Shaheed (thigh) and Michael Thomas (knee) in Week 13.

Tampa Bay elevated Miller to its active roster Saturday.

The 23-year-old wideout was elevated to the Buccaneers' active roster alongside David Moore on Saturday, making it seem as if the team could be preparing to be without Chris Godwin (neck) in Sunday's affair with the Panthers. Miller has yet to appear in an NFL game, but he has been with Tampa Bay's practice squad since late August.

The Buccaneers elevated Moore to their active roster Saturday.

Tampa Bay elevated both Moore and Ryan Miller on Saturday, which could be a sign that the team is preparing to be without Chris Godwin (neck) in Sunday's contest. Moore has appeared in one game for the Buccaneers this season, playing a total of 21 snaps (11 offensive and 10 on special teams).

The 49ers elevated Conley to their active roster Saturday.

The veteran wideout's promotion could mean that San Francisco is preparing to be without Ray-Ray McCloud (ribs) in Sunday's affair. Conley has appeared in two games for the 49ers this season, playing a total of 16 snaps (10 offensive and six on special teams).

Pascal (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

The 28-year-old wideout won't play in Sunday's affair after the birth of his child Saturday. On the season, Pascal has caught four of his 11 targets for 19 yards, playing on just 21 percent of Arizona's offensive snaps. With no Pascal in Week 13, Andre Baccellia could see increased opportunities on both special teams and offense.

The Cardinals signed Chisena to their active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The 26-year-old wideout joined Arizona's practice squad just under two weeks ago, and he's now in line to appear in his first game in 2023. Chisena's most recent action came in 2022 with the Vikings, and over the course of his four-year NFL career, he's appeared in 27 games, playing almost strictly on special teams.
