Boyd (finger) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Boyd did not catch a pass. With Tee Higgins dealing with a right hamstring issue, the Bengals' Week 14 wideout depth is being taxed. Boyd will now target a potential return to action next weekend versus the Buccaneers.

Higgins was forced out of Sunday's game against the Browns with a right hamstring injury.

Prior to the team's announcement that he was dealing with a hamstring injury, Higgins did not catch a pass. The wideout was limited at practice by a hamstring issue leading up to Sunday's contest, so it's possible that he suffered a setback versus Cleveland.

Davis (head) won't return to Sunday's game against the Bills.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Davis caught his only target for 15 yards. The wideout will now target a potential return to action next weekend against the Lions, though at this stage it's unclear if the head injury that forced Davis out of Sunday's contest will land him in the NFL's concussion protocol.

Boyd exited Sunday's game against the Browns with a finger injury, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

On the second offensive snap of the contest, quarterback Joe Burrow threw an incompletion to Boyd, after which the wideout went to the locker room to have a finger on his right hand examined. If he's unable to return, Boyd will finish Week 14 with no catches.

Sills (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

After he was a healthy inactive for three consecutive games, Sills dressed for the Giants' 20-20 tie with the Commanders a week ago, but he played just one snap during that contest. He now finds himself back in street clothes Sunday while the Giants keep five other wideouts (Darius Slayton, Isaiah Hodgins, Richie James, Kenny Golladay and Marcus Johnson) active ahead of him.

Tolbert (coach's decision) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

The rookie third-round pick suited up for the past seven games but won't play Sunday, as James Washington (foot) is making his 2022 debut after being activated off injured reserve. Tolbert has only two receptions for 12 yards in eight contests this season.

Jones (chest) is officially active for Sunday's game at Tennessee.

Jones received the questionable tag after he was a limited participant at practice all week, but he's been cleared to take the field for Sunday's divisional contest. The 27-year-old caught only two of seven targets for 16 yards Week 13 in Detroit, which ended a three-game stretch during which he had at least five catches and 40 receiving yards.

Raymond (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

After a week in which he was capped at one limited practice Friday due to an illness, Raymond will be available to the Lions offense for the 13th time in as many contests this season. Having said that, his workload has experienced a drastic reduction with DJ Chark again operating at full capacity and rookie first-rounder Jameson Williams making his pro debut last Sunday. Consequently, Raymond may have to take advantage of his sparse targets, which so far have gone for 8.3 YPT in 2022.

Cooper (hip) is active Week 14 against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

While most signs leading up to Sunday suggested this would be the case, Cooper is in line to be on a "pitch count," per James Palmer of NFL Network. Whether or not this jeopardizes Cooper's WR1 status remains to be seen, though it could lead to more work for Donovan Peoples-Jones, who has seen 95 percent of snaps or greater in three consecutive weeks. Anthony Schwartz -- who is now on IR -- and David Bell were the only other wideouts to see snaps last week, while tight end David Njoku could garner a few targets as well in his return.

Conley was signed to the Titans' 53-man roster Saturday, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

Conley earned the promotion with Treylon Burks (concussion) and C.J. Board (ribs) out Sunday against Jacksonville. He'll likely operate as the team's No. 3 or No. 4 wideout behind Robert Woods and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, while Racey McMath also joined the 53-man roster after being activated off IR on Saturday.
