  • Javon Wims WR | CAR

    Cardinals' Javon Wims: Inks new deal with Arizona

    The Cardinals signed Wims to a reserve/future contract Monday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.

    Wims signed with the Cardinals' practice squad during Week 2 and was elevated for one game over the course of the season. However, he did not record a statistic during this Week 5 contest, and the 28-year-old now has not logged a target since the 2020 season. Wims will look to secure an active roster spot heading into the 2023 season.

  • DJ Chark WR | ATL

    Lions' DJ Chark: Makes game-sealing catch

    Chark caught three of four passes for 14 yards during Sunday's 20-16 win over Green Bay.

    Chark struggled to get open most of the game outside of the play in which he made the game-sealing catch on 4th-and-1 with just over a minute remaining in regulation. He'll finish out his one-year contract with Detroit having racked up 502 yards and three scores over 11 games. While this isn't the kind of production that will significantly boost his stock entering free agency, Chark performed well in a deep-threat role and caught a career-high three catches of 40-plus yards despite seeing a handful fewer targets than he saw during his productive days in Jacksonville between 2019 and 2020.

  • Cade Johnson WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Cade Johnson: Moves back to practice squad

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

    Johnson was elevated from the practice squad for the second week in a row ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale win against the Rams. The 5-foot-10 receiver wound up playing the most significant role of his young career, as his 29 offensive snaps ranked third on the team behind DK Metcalf (58) and Tyler Lockett (55) but ahead of Dareke Young (17) and Laquon Treadwell (five). Johnson also finished with Seattle's fourth-most receiving yards (21) while hauling both of his targets Week 18, so he may have earned himself an active roster spot heading into Saturday's wild-card tilt against the 49ers.

  • Buccaneers' Breshad Perriman: One reception to close out season

    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.

  • Ihmir Smith-Marsette: Returns to practice squad

    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.

  • Keke Coutee WR | MIA

    Keke Coutee: Bumps back down to practice squad

    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.

  • Johnny Johnson: Back to practice squad Monday

    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.

  • Elijah Moore WR | PHI

    Jets' Elijah Moore: Has disappointing sophomore season

    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.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Jets' Corey Davis: Totals 536 yards in 2022

    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.

  • Scott Miller WR | CHI

    Buccaneers' Scotty Miller: One catch in Week 18 loss

    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.
