Cincinnati signed Johnson to its practice squad Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reprots.

Johnson has appeared in four games this season -- two with Houston and two with Las Vegas. The Bengals are expected to get Ja'Marr Chase (hip) back from IR this week, so it's interesting to see them add wideout depth when their receiver room will likely be back to full strength for the first time in more than a month.

Jones played five of the Jaguars' 61 snaps on offense and went without a target in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Ravens.

Jones has dressed in every game for the Jaguars this season, but he has logged only three targets in 11 contests and hasn't drawn a look from quarterback Trevor Lawrence since Week 7. He'll continue to have a muted role at receiver while all of Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Marvin Jones and Jamal Agnew are available for Jacksonville.

Detroit cut Johnson from its practice squad Tuesday.

In a corresponding move, cornerback Jarren Williams was signed to the practice squad. The 23-year-old wideout out of Tulsa will now need to seek another opportunity elsewhere. He has yet to play an NFL snap.

Tennessee signed Roberson to its pracitce squad Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Roberson was cut from the Bears' practice squad at the end of October and remained a free agent until signing a practice-squad deal with the Titans on Tuesday. The undrafted rookie wideout has yet to make his NFL debut.

Brown played 14 of the Commanders' 60 snaps on offense and finished with a 17-yard reception in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Falcons.

Brown has logged just 19 combined snaps on offense in Washington's past two games and doesn't look as though he'll be in store for much playing time so long as fellow receivers Terry McLaurin, Curtis Samuel and Jahan Dotson are available moving forward.

Sims played nine snaps on offense and went without a target in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Falcons.

For the first time since Week 4, Sims failed to draw a look in the passing game. With all of Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Curtis Samuel and Dyami Brown available to the Commanders, Sims' opportunities to contribute at receiver will likely be few and far between over the final six weeks of the season.

Pascal went without a target while playing eight of the Eagles' 79 snaps on offense in Sunday's 40-33 win over the Packers.

Pascal's 10 percent snap share marked a notable downturn from Week 11, when he played 43 percent of the snaps in a win over the Colts. The Eagles handed most of Pascal's playing time to Quez Watkins (84 percent share), who operated as the team's clear No. 3 receiver after splitting the role with Pascal in Week 11.

Perriman failed to haul in his lone target while playing eight of the Buccaneers' 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 23-17 overtime loss to the Browns.

Even with Russell Gage (hamstring) missing his fourth game in a row, both Perriman and Scotty Miller (two snaps) were afterthoughts on offense, while Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones formed Tampa Bay's regular receiver trio. If Gage makes it back for the Buccaneers' Week 13 game against the Saints, one or both of Perriman and Miller could find himself on the inactive list.

Miller went without a target while playing two of the Buccaneers' 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 23-17 overtime loss to the Browns.

Russell Gage (hamstring) was inactive for the fourth straight game due to injury, but since all of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones have been available during that stretch, Miller hasn't been able to carve out much of a role on offense. Whenever Gage is cleared to return to game action, Miller and/or Breshad Perriman could end up being healthy inactives.

Parker (knee) was a full participant at Tuesday's practice.

Parker was listed as a limited participant on the Patriots' initial Week 13 injury report Monday, but the team provided no indication that the receiver was dealing with any setbacks in his recovery from the knee issue that kept him from playing Week 9 against the Colts. Following a Week 10 bye, Parker has proceeded to play 37 and 85 percent of the Patriots' snaps on offense in the ensuing two games. After recording four receptions for 80 yards in the Patriots' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Vikings and now upgrading to full activity at Tuesday's practice, Parker looks poised to handle another big snap share in Thursday's game against the Bills.
