Perriman brought in one of two targets for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 30-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Perriman made his first appearance on the stat sheet since Week 9 while seeing his highest allotment of playing time from scrimmage since Week 3 -- 31 snaps. The veteran wideout may not even garner active status in next Monday night's wild-card matchup against the Cowboys if recent history is any indication, however, as he was left off the gameday roster in four of the last six regular-season contests.

Smith-Marsette reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Smith-Marsette was elevated from the Chiefs' practice squad for the second time this season ahead of Saturday's regular-season finale against Las Vegas. The second-year wideout served as the team's No. 5 wideout with Mecole Hardman (pelvis) and Skyy Moore (hand) both inactive against the Raiders. However, Smith-Marsette did not record a target while playing nine of his 10 snaps on offense, and he has not recorded a target since joining up with Kansas City.

Coutee reverted to Indianapolis' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Coutee was elevated from the Colts' practice squad for the third time this season and the second week in a row ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against Houston. The veteran wideout ultimately served as the team's primary punt returner over four special-teams snaps Week 18. Coutee returned two punts for 13 yards -- one of which was muffed but quickly recovered by Indianapolis. Over eight games in 2022, Coutee recorded one catch while playing two offensive snaps.

Johnson reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Johnson was elevated for his NFL debut ahead of Sunday's win over the Colts. The undrafted rookie out of Oregon wound up playing nine offensive snaps, though he did not log a target while serving as the team's No. 4 wideout. Johnson will now look to secure a new contract with Houston or elsewhere heading into the offseason.

Moore caught his only target for 11 yards in Sunday's 11-6 loss to the Dolphins. He finished the season with 37 catches on 65 targets for 446 yards and one touchdown.

Moore was expected to take a step forward after racking up 538 yards and five touchdowns in just 11 games as a rookie. Instead, he regressed in every facet except availability. His only absence came Week 7, when Moore was sent home after requesting a trade. The second-round pick from the 2021 NFL Draft returned the following week and remains in the Jets' plans moving forward. An upgrade under center could revitalize Moore's career, but he's well behind 2022 first-round pick Garrett Wilson in the team's wide receiver pecking order.

Davis caught one of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 11-6 loss to the Dolphins. He finished the season with 32 catches on 64 targets for 536 yards and two touchdowns.

Davis needed just nine games to rack up 34 catches for 492 yards and four touchdowns in 2021. He played four more games in the 2022 campaign but had two fewer catches and two fewer touchdowns while totaling only 44 more yards. Rookie first-round pick Garrett Wilson emerged as the go-to option in the Jets' passing game, and the team's poor quarterback play didn't leave room for another receiver to produce consistently. Davis -- who turns 28 on Jan. 11 -- has one more year left on his contract but no guaranteed money.

Miller secured one of two targets for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 30-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Miller logged 21 snaps from scrimmage, his highest tally since Week 9, as the Buccaneers pulled most starters before halftime. However, while the speedster recorded his first reception since Week 13, Miller still saw minimal action and is likely to be a virtual non-factor on offense during next Monday night's wild-card matchup against the Cowboys.

The Falcons signed Ali to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Ali was elevated ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Buccaneers and played seven offensive snaps with zero catches on one target. The 6-foot wideout then reverted to the team's practice squad before inking this new deal with the team heading into the offseason, per the NFL's transaction log. Ali ended his season-long stint on the Falcons' practice squad with back-to-back elevations over the final two weeks of the regular season, and he'll now compete for a spot on the active roster this offseason.

The Jets signed Taylor to a reserve/future contract Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Taylor was placed on Green Bay's IR with an undisclosed injury in mid-August before being waived with an injury settlement Sept. 15. The 27-year-old then spent the majority of the season unsigned before joining the Jets' practice squad Dec. 29. Taylor caught seven of 13 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown across 25 games during the previous two seasons with the Packers. He'll now look to make an impression with the Jets this offseason.

Agnew caught his lone target for eight yards, returned four kickoffs for 125 yards and two punts for 33 yards during Saturday's 20-16 win against the Titans.

Agnew played just seven offensive snaps Saturday and caught exactly one pass for the third consecutive contest. The 27-year-old has worked as a gadget player in Jacksonville's offense this year and has 23 catches for 187 yards and three touchdowns plus 12 carries for 86 yards. He should remain in that role for the playoffs and for 2023, which is the final year of his contract.
