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.

The Chargers signed Erickson to their active roster Saturday.

Erickson is joining Los Angeles' active roster for the third consecutive week. This move likely comes to ensure depth at wide receiver, as both Mike Williams (knee) and Joshua Palmer (knee) remain on injured reserve. In Erickson's two appearances this season, the Wisconsin product has caught two of his four targets for 29 yards.

Montgomery was elevated to the Colts' active roster Saturday.

Montgomery's elevation is his second in as many weeks. He saw the field for three offensive snaps (four percent) and nine on special teams (33 percent) in Week 12. Look for the young pass catcher to see a similar workload in Tennessee.

Thompson reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Thompson played 15 snaps during Thursday's loss at Dallas, all of them on special teams. If 2022 seventh-rounder Dareke Young is able to suit up for Seattle in Week 14, that could be enough to keep Thompson from being elevated again for the Seahawks' next game at San Francisco.

Goodwin (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

The 33-year-old wide receiver is in line to miss his fourth consecutive game Sunday, as he continues to recover from a concussion. Goodwin has appeared in eight games for the Browns this year, catching three of his 11 targets for 10 yards while playing 84 total snaps (all on offense). With Goodwin missing Sunday's contest, David Bell and James Proche could very well see increased opportunities in Cleveland's WR room.

Boutte (shoulder/illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.

The rookie wideout is in line to miss his ninth game of the year Sunday, as he continues to recover from an illness and a shoulder issue. Boutte has hauled in two of his seven targets on the year, playing a total of 92 snaps (all on offense).

Higgins (hamstring/ankle) was listed as a full practice participant Friday.

After returning to a limited practice Thursday, Higgins -- who has missed three straight games -- returned to a full session Friday, which sets the stage for the wideout to return to action Monday night against the Jaguars. Prior to being sidelined, Higgins compiled a 27-328-2 line on 51 targets through seven games. In his looming return to the lineup, Higgins should reclaim a key role in the Bengals' WR corps, but his fantasy upside could take a hit now that he'll be catching passes from QB Jake Browning instead of Joe Burrow, who is on IR after wrist surgery.
