Meyers caught seven of 13 targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Bears.

The touchdown came in garbage time after rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell had replaced Brian Hoyer under center. Meyers has scored a TD in three straight games and five times total on the year, a big leap from his Patriot days when he found the end zone only twice in his first three seasons. Jimmy Garoppolo (back) is expected back in Week 8 against the Lions, but Meyers has shown he can be productive no matter who is throwing him the ball.

Adams caught seven of 12 targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Bears.

The three-time All-Pro receiver led the Raiders in receiving yards while seeing double-digit targets for the first time since Week 4, but the volume didn't result in outstanding numbers, with the aging Brian Hoyer getting the start under center in place of Jimmy Garoppolo (back). Garoppolo is expected back in Week 8 against the Lions, but Adams has still been held under 60 yards in three straight games, and Las Vegas' issues on offense extend beyond the health of the team's starting QB.

Diggs caught six of 12 targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Patriots.

Diggs had the presence of mind to get up and keep running after he wasn't touched on a sliding catch, resulting in a 25-yard touchdown to cut New England's lead to 22-17 in the fourth quarter. It was Diggs' sixth touchdown of 2023, putting him on pace for a third consecutive season with double-digit touchdowns. Buffalo's No. 1 receiver has drawn at least 11 targets in five of the team's first seven games, and he should remain heavily involved as the Bills try to bounce back Thursday against the Buccaneers.

Raymond left Sunday's game against the Ravens with a hamstring injury.

Raymond hurt his hamstring in the fourth quarter and did not return to the blowout loss. The 29-year-old's status should be monitored heading into next week's game against the Raiders.

Hardman is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

With Justin Watson out with an elbow injury, Hardman -- who rejoined the Chiefs in a trade with the Jets on Wednesday -- will bolster the team's WR depth in Week 7. In his first game back with the franchise that drafted him in 2019, it remains to be seen how much work Hardman will see, but in the coming weeks, he could push for snaps in a Kansas City wideout corps that also includes Rashee Rice, Skyy Moore, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Kadarius Toney and Justyn Ross.

Smith-Njigba is in line for an elevated role in Sunday's contest against the Cardinals with DK Metcalf (ribs/hip) inactive, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

While Tyler Lockett also is active Sunday, he operated with a cap on his practice reps during Week 7 prep due to a hamstring injury, meaning Smith-Njigba is the healthiest among the Seahawks' top two available wide receivers. If Smith-Njigba's volume in the passing game increases, he'll be looking to build upon the 16-110-0 line on 25 targets that he's accrued through the first five games of his career.

Skowronek (Achilles) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

The wide receiver was listed as questionable Friday after playing through the injury in Week 6 against the Cardinals. Skowronek has been dealing with the injury for almost a month but has yet to miss a game. The third-year pro has two catches for 13 yards in 2023.

Pascal (neck) has been deemed inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Pascal will miss his first game of the season after picking up a neck injury, which left him sidelined for all three practices leading into this Week 7 contest. The 28-year-old's next opportunity to suit up will arrive Sunday, Oct. 29 against Baltimore. In Pascal's absence, expect Greg Dortch to step into a bigger role behind the Cardinals' starting receiver trio of Marquise Brown, Michael Wilson and Rondale Moore.

Metcalf (ribs/hip) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Cardinals.

Metcalf has been able to play through a rib injury that he sustained Week 2, but the hip issue that he suffered last Sunday at Cincinnati impacted him enough to contain him to one limited practice during Week 7 prep. His availability for Sunday thus came down to a game-time decision, and after he went through a pregame workout, the Seahawks' training staff didn't deem Metcalf healthy enough to gut it out for another week. As a result, Tyler Lockett and rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba figure to be Seattle's wide receivers for quarterback Geno Smith.

Tillman (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Colts.

Tillman missed last week's game due to a hip injury. While he was again listed as questionable due to the issue, it looks like he is healthy, but the pass catcher will simply be held out as a coach's decision.
