Dalen Cambre WR | NYG
Giants' Dalen Cambre: Elevated for Week 12
The Giants elevated Cambre from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
It's the second time this season Cambre has been elevated to the active roster. The 24-year-old added extra depth at wide receiver in Week 11, but with Darius Slayton back for Sunday, Cambre will likely contribute mostly to kicking coverage on special teams after making two tackles against the Packers.

Dante Pettis WR | NO
Saints' Dante Pettis: Elevated from practice squad
The Saints elevated Pettis from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus the Falcons.
Pettis made his season debut with the Saints in Week 10, serving as the team's punt returner in place of Rashid Shaheed, who was traded to Seattle. Coming out of the team's bye week, it appears Pettis will continue his role as a returner in Sunday's matchup versus Atlanta.

Dylan Drummond WR | ATL
Falcons' Dylan Drummond: Bumped up to roster for Week 12
The Falcons elevated Drummond from their practice squad Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.
Drummond's presence is needed due to Drake London (knee) being ruled out for Week 12. Drummond will likely serve in a depth wideout role Sunday, as he did after his previous two elevations this season, when he tallied seven total offensive snaps without seeing any targets across Weeks 8 and 9. Since Drummond has now been elevated three times, Atlanta would need to sign him to the active roster in order for the Eastern Michigan product to play again for the team during the regular season beyond Week 12.

Brennan Presley WR | LAR
Rams' Brennan Presley: Elevated for Week 12
The Rams elevated Presley from their practice squad Saturday.
Presley signed with Los Angeles as an undrafted free agent in late April and had a strong preseason, but he was ultimately left off the team's initial 53-man roster. The Oklahoma State product subsequently signed with the Rams' practice squad, and he's getting his first elevation in Week 12. Whether Presley sees any snaps on offense could depend on whether Xavier Smith (concussion) is able to play.

Tory Horton WR | SEA
Seahawks' Tory Horton: Lands on injured reserve
The Seahawks placed Horton (groin/shin) on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Horton was set to miss a third consecutive game due to shin and groin injuries. His placement on injured reserve means he'll be required to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 16 against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 18 the earliest he can be activated from IR. Horton's extended absence means Cooper Kupp, Rashid Shaheed, Jake Bobo and Cody White are all slated for more work on offense behind WR1 Jaxon Smith-Njigba, while Shaheed should continue to operate as the Seahawks' primary punt returner.

Brandin Cooks WR | BUF
Brandin Cooks: Let go by New Orleans
The Saints waived Cooks (personal) on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The two sides mutually agreed to part ways earlier this week, and Saturday's transaction makes that official. The veteran wideout will hit the waiver wire, and he could garner interest from teams looking to add another pass-catching option for the rest of the 2025 campaign. Through 10 regular-season games with New Orleans, Cooks caught 19 passes (on 25 targets) for 165 yards.

Xavier Restrepo WR | TEN
Titans' Xavier Restrepo: Elevated from practice squad
The Titans elevated Restrepo from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Restrepo is slated to make his NFL regular-season debut against the Seahawks on Sunday. Given his college connection with quarterback Cam Ward, coupled with the absences of Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) and Calvin Ridley (fibula - IR), Restrepo could see some snaps on offense right off the bat, though it would likely be in a rotational role behind the likes of Chimere Dike, Van Jefferson, Mason Kinsey and James Proche.

Xavier Restrepo WR | TEN
Titans' Xavier Restrepo: Slated to make NFL debut Week 12
The Titans are expected to elevate Restrepo off the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
With Calvin Ridley (fibula - IR) sidelined for the rest of the season and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) ruled out for Week 12, the Titans will add depth to their wide receiver corps by calling up Restrepo from the practice squad. Restrepo signed with the Titans in late April as an undrafted free agent, and he could be involved in the offense immediately due to his college connection with Cam Ward. Restrepo caught 69 passes for 1,127 yards and 11 touchdowns in 12 games during his final season in Miami with Ward as the starting QB.

Chris Godwin WR | TB
Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Expected to return Week 12
Godwin (fibula) is expected to be play in Sunday night's game against the Rams, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.
Godwin drew the questionable tag for Sunday's game after posting an LP-FP-LP practice log during Week 12 prep, but the veteran wide receiver is on track to return from a five-game absence due to a fibula injury. It's unclear whether he will operate on a snap count Sunday, but his return would mean less targets to go around for Tez Johnson, Sterling Shepard and Cade Otton. Godwin has appeared in just two regular-season games in 2025, recording six catches (on 14 targets) for 52 yards.

Xavier Smith WR | LAR
Rams' Xavier Smith: Questionable for SNF
Smith (concussion) is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Bucs, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Smith was concussed in last Sunday's win over the Seahawks but was able to log a pair of limited practices Thursday and Friday. However, Smith is still in the protocol. If Smith is unable to play Sunday night, Jordan Whittington and Konata Mumpfield would be next up for wideout snaps behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.
