Bech (forearm) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Jets, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Bech was a full practice participant Wednesday through Friday, so it won't come as any surprise if he's activated from injured reserve before the 4 p.m. ET deadline Saturday (to be eligible for Sunday's game). He opened the year as the Raiders' No. 2 wide receiver, but minimal production from Jalen Nailor could open an opportunity to climb the depth chart in November/December.

Tate (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

After missing practice throughout the week, Tate now will be unavailable for Sunday's contest. His absence should open up snaps at wide receiver for Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike alongside slot man Wan'Dale Robinson. Veteran Calvin Ridley (hip) will also be an option, assuming he's healthy enough to play.

Meyers (hamstring/ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Meyers didn't practice Friday, but the Jaguars are leaving the light on for the veteran wideout to face Indianapolis. He's coming off a productive Week 6 game against the Texans in which Meyers caught five of 10 targets for 83 yards. The Jaguars are fresh off their bye. If Meyers can't go, Brian Thomas, Josh Cameron and Travis Hunter would have expanded roles behind Parker Washington.

Rice (hamstring) will play in Sunday's game against the Broncos, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official website reports.

After returning to limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Rice is set for his first game appearance since Week 4. He starts off with a tough matchup at Denver against Patrick Surtain & Co.

Head coach Mike LaFleur said Friday that Wilson (ribs) is expected to play Sunday at Dallas, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Wilson has been tending to sore ribs this week, which so far has forced him to wear a yellow non-contact jersey Wednesday and Thursday and be listed as limited. LaFleur also told Howard Balzer of USA Today that "pain tolerance" is the operative word with Wilson. Friday's injury report will determine if Wilson has a designation for Week 8 action.

Moore (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.

Moore has missed the past two games and remained limited in practice this week coming out of Buffalo's bye. He failed to play through questionable designations in Weeks 5 and 6, so it remains unclear if the veteran wideout will be able to give it a go Sunday against the Ravens. If he's unable to return, Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir would likely soak up the bulk of the snaps atop the depth chart.

Colts coach Shan Steichen said Friday that Downs will play Sunday against the Jaguars, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Downs submitted a trade request amid the Colts' fire sale this week, but he's still a member of the team and will be on the field against Jacksonville, assuming he's not dealt over the next 24-36 hours. Like most of the Colts, Downs has struggled to produce in the box score this season and has settled in as a low-upside WR4 in fantasy.

Brown (ankle/knee) is questionable for Sunday's game at Miami, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel deemed Brown questionable after Friday's practice, in which the wideout didn't participate. Vrabel told reporters that Brown's knee flared up during Wednesday's practice and prevented him from finishing the session, per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald. Brown then missed practice Thursday and Friday, putting his availability in serious doubt ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff at Miami on Sunday.

McLaurin (knee) underwent surgery Friday to repair the torn patellar tendon in his left knee, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

The surgery was conducted in New York, and McLaurin has already been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 season. His availability for the start of the 2027 campaign will also be in question, as the veteran wideout faces a lengthy rehab process. The Commanders will move forward with Stefon Diggs, Antonio Williams, Dyami Brown and Treylon Burks atop the wideout depth chart this season.

Egbuka (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Scott Smith of the Bucs' official site reports.

With the concussion no longer the issue, Egbuka's availability is now being dictated by his foot injury. His absence will force Tez Johnson and Ted Hurst into more snaps and targets alongside veteran slot man Chris Godwin. Egbuka's next chance to play will be Week 9 against the Bears. The Bucs then have their bye the following week.
