Nacua caught three of seven targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Packers.

Nacua has now failed to top 45 yards in three of his last four outings. Sunday's performance came with backup Brett Rypien under center, a development that resulted in merely 130 yards through the air for Los Angeles. Nacua's stock would figure to benefit if Matthew Stafford (thumb) is cleared to return following the Rams' Week 10 bye.

Kupp caught two of seven targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Packers.

Kupp struggled to make his usual impact with backup Brett Rypien under center and managing just 130 passing yards. However, with what is now three straight sub-50-yard performances, Kupp's performance level has hit a lull. He'll strive to bounce back once the Rams return from their bye week, which could coincide with Matthew Stafford (thumb) re-entering the lineup.

Watson suffered chest and back injuries and is under evaluation for a concussion during Sunday's game versus the Rams.

Watson connected with quarterback Jordan Love on a deep ball that the wide receiver had to go up for. At the end of the 37-yard play, Watson landed hard on his upper body and stayed down for a spell before making his way to the sideline. After he went to the locker room, the potential trio of health concerns were revealed.

Metchie is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with a ribs injury.

The wide receiver caught one pass for 14 yards before exiting. Metchie came into the game with six catches for 72 yards and no touchdowns on the season.

Goodwin won't return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals after exiting in the third quarter following a concussion evaluation, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. He failed to record any receptions on two targets prior to his exit.

Goodwin sustained the head injury after he appeared to take a shot to the helmet from a defender while he attempted to haul in a third-down pass from Deshaun Watson during the Browns' first possession of the second half. With David Bell (knee) inactive for the contest and Donovan Peoples-Jones having been shipped to Detroit ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, the Browns are left with Cedric Tillman and James Proche as their depth options at receiver behind starters Amari Cooper and Elijah Moore.

Brooks (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Eagles, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Brooks has only appeared in two contests thus far during his rookie campaign. He'll continue working to earn an active role with the team and suit up Week 10 against the Giants.

Downs (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

After practicing fully Wednesday, Downs was added to the injury report Thursday due to a knee issue and finished the week with back-to back limited sessions. With his Week 9 availability confirmed, in the absence of any in-game setbacks or limitations, Downs -- who has 40 catches in eight games to date -- will look to maintain the momentum he's built over his last four outings. In that span, he's recorded 23 catches on 29 targets for 315 yards and two TDs, while working in tandem with top WR Michael Pittman, who leads the Colts with 50 catches.

Chark (elbow) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

After sitting out Wednesday's practice due to an elbow injury, Chark got back on the field Thursday and Friday in a limited fashion but wore a red non-contact jersey on both occasions. He was listed as questionable heading into the weekend, but after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday that Chark was expected to suit up Sunday, the wide receiver is doing just that. Chark thus will look to produce versus an Indianapolis defense that has surrendered the seventh-most yards per target (8.7) to opposing WRs this season.

Hollins is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings after suffering an ankle injury in the first half, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

Though the receivers typically aren't frequently involved in Atlanta's run-centric offense, the position group would be significantly compromised nonetheless if Hollins isn't able to check back into the game, as No. 1 wideout Drake London (groin) is inactive this week. Hollins recorded three receptions for 36 yards on three targets before leaving the contest to get his ankle checked out.

Osborn sustained a concussion during Sunday's game in Atlanta and won't return, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

After taking a helmet-to-helmet hit in the second quarter, Osborn stayed down on the turf for a spell as he was tended to by the Vikings' medical staff. He eventually was able to get to his feet and then was escorted to the locker room on a cart. With Justin Jefferson (hamstring) on injured reserve and Jalen Nailor (hamstring) inactive, Minnesota's healthy and available wide receivers are Jordan Addison, Brandon Powell, Trishton Jackson and N'Keal Harry.
