Bourne was on the field for 20 of a possible 54 snaps on offense in Thursday's 24-10 loss to the Bills, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

In the process, Bourne caught one of his two targets for 15 yards. With 19 catches for 226 yards (on 26 targets) through 11 games to date, Bourne is off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats while working in a wideout corps that also includes Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Nelson Agholor and Tyquan Thornton.

Coach Mike McCarthy expects Gallup (illness) to play Sunday against the Colts, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

The 26-year-old has been unable to practice this week due to an illness, but McCarthy doesn't expect that to affect the wideout's availability this weekend. It appears Gallup is headed toward a questionable tag, and the situation should receive more clarity when the Cowboys release their official injury report later Friday.

Slayton (illness) won't practice Friday, though coach Brian Daboll still hopes the wideout will be able to play Sunday against the Commanders, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.

The 25-year-old sat out Thursday's practice with an illness and won't be back on the field for Friday's session. Slayton appears headed toward a questionable tag and could be a true game-time decision Sunday against Washington.

McKenzie brought in all five targets for 44 yards in the Bills' 24-10 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.

McKenzie checked in third in receptions and second in receiving yards on the night for the Bills, putting together a solid follow-up performance to his 6-96-1 line against the Lions on Thanksgiving Day. The versatile sixth-year pro has at least four catches in three of his past four games, giving him some momentum heading into a critical Week 14 divisional home clash against the Jets a week from Sunday.

Agholor brought in two of three targets for 17 yards and recovered a fumble in the Patriots' 24-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.

The veteran wideout tied multiple pass catchers for second on the team in receptions, with younger speedsters Marcus Jones, a cornerback, and Tyquan Thornton notably recording longer catches. Agholor had offered some reason for optimism by flashing with a 6-65-1 line against the Vikings on Thanksgiving Night, but Thursday's production has been much more his norm since Week 5. Agholor's next opportunity to boost his numbers comes in a Week 14 road matchup versus the Cardinals on Monday night, Dec. 12.

Parker secured two of four targets for 16 yards in the Patriots' 24-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.

Parker's night was in fairly stark contrast to his solid 4-80 line in the Patriots' Thanksgiving Night loss to the Vikings, as the veteran receiver was one of several of the team's pass catchers to underperform against a tough Bills defense. Parker's production has been extremely difficult to trust on a game-to-game basis, as he's now been at two catches and 19 yards or fewer in three of the last four contests. Bigger contributions may be more feasible in a Week 14 Monday night road matchup against the Cardinals on Dec. 12.

Davis secured two of seven targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 24-10 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.

Davis had an inefficient night overall, but he salvaged it from a fantasy perspective by recording an eight-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter. The speedster's catch and yardage totals were his second lowest of the season, and the trip to the end zone was only his second since Week 6. Davis will aim to reverse his troublesome trend of three straight games of declining yardage compared to that of the previous contest when he faces the tough Jets secondary in a Week 14 home divisional showdown a week from Sunday.

Diggs secured seven of nine targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 24-10 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.

Diggs paced the Bills in receptions, receiving yards and targets, and he brought in one of Josh Allen's two eight-yard first-half scoring tosses. The talented veteran wideout now has at least seven receptions in three of the last four games, and he's scored in three consecutive contests as well heading into a Week 14 home divisional showdown against the Jets a week from Sunday.

Meyers entered the blue tent to be evaluated for a potential head injury Thursday against the Bills, Chris Mason of The Springfield Republican reports.

Meyers was hit hard in the end zone late in the fourth quarter, which broke up what originally appeared to be a touchdown catch. Due to the injury occurring late in the game, Meyers will likely be out for the rest of Thursday's game -- though nothing has officially been announced by the Patriots.

McCutcheon (shoulder) was a non-participant during the Rams' practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

McCutcheon missed his second practice in a row after injuring his shoulder against Kansas City in Week 12. The specifics of this injury have yet to be revealed, but it appears likely to threaten his availability for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. McCutcheon will have one more practice to improve his status before Friday's final injury report, or the Rams could be left with an even more patchwork group of wideouts Week 13.
