Sims reverted to Houston's practice squad Monday.

Sims saw time on both offense and special teams during Sunday's win versus the Cardinals and caught both of his targets for 25 yards, in addition to returning two punts for 16 yards. The 26-year-old could get another opportunity to be called up for the team's upcoming matchup against the Jaguars, as Noah Brown is still dealing with a knee injury.

McCloud (ribs) was listed as a limited participant in San Francisco's practice estimation Monday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

McCloud popped up on the injury report Monday, putting his status for Thursday's matchup with the Seahawks in doubt. If the 27-year-old ends up being unable to play, Ronnie Bell should take over as the team's primary return specialist.

Bynum reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

The wide receiver played one snap on Sunday and did not record a stat. Bynum was elevated to the active roster to provide depth behind Keenan Allen (shoulder) and Jalen Guyton (groin), both of whom were questionable.

Thompkins rushed once for 17 yards, failed to bring in his only target, returned three kickoffs for 55 yards and ran back two punts for 64 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Thompkins once again was slightly ahead of fellow reserve receiver Rakim Jarrett in snaps, garnering 16 to his teammate's tally of 14. Although Thompkins couldn't make an impact as a receiver while Jarrett rang up an impressive 41-yard grab, the former got a nice chunk gain on his end around and also ripped off a 51-yard punt return to set the Buccaneers up at the 49ers' 13-yard line with 4:27 remaining and down 13 points. That opportunity was subsequently squandered by a Baker Mayfield interception, but Thompkins pushed his average on punt returns to an impressive 9.2 yards and continues to have value in formats that factor in special-teams statistics.

Chosen reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

The wide receiver played on five of Miami's 70 offensive snaps during Sunday's win over Las Vegas. Chosen's snap count came in behind Jaylen Waddle's 58, Cedrick Wilson's 45, Tyreek Hill's 41 and River Cracraft's 21. The eighth-year pro did catch both of his targets for 39 yards.

Jarrett brought in one of two targets for a 41-yard reception in the Buccaneers' 27-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Jarrett struck down the seam on the first play of the fourth quarter for the longest gain of his brief career. The speedy rookie came into the game with just three receptions for 19 yards on seven targets, and although he's garnered active status in every game this season, he remains far down the pecking order in the pass-catching corps.

Sills reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

The wide receiver played on seven offensive snaps but was not targeted during Denver's win over Minnesota on Sunday night. Sills was elevated from the practice squad before the team's Week 10 game against the Bills.

Wicks (concussion/knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.

Wicks is now in the league's concussion protocol and will need to clear it in order to be eligible to return to action. Because it's likely that the rookie fifth-round pick won't be cleared in time for Thursday's game versus Detroit, Malik Heath and Samori Toure could be in line for increased roles.

Palmer brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday. He also recorded a six-yard rush on his only carry.

Palmer's reception total was a new personal best for the rookie, but he was under 25 receiving yards for the second straight game. The speedster continues to enjoy a steady complementary role behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin -- he's logged at least four targets in five of his last six games, including four straight -- but Palmer has yet to exceed 51 yards in any of the first 10 contests of his pro career.

Coach Sean McVay said Skowronek "got a hip pointer" during Sunday's win over the Seahawks, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

The wide receiver played on nine offensive snaps but was not targeted Sunday. Skowronek has three catches for 33 yards and a touchdown in 2023.
