Trent Sherfield WR | NE
Trent Sherfield: Let go by Denver
The Broncos waived Sherfield on Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
The move comes after the Broncos signed Lil'Jordan Humphrey from the Giants' practice squad to the active roster Wednesday. Sherfield served in a depth role at wide receiver and posted three catches (on four targets) for 21 yards across 10 regular-season games. He could garner interest on the waiver wire from teams looking to add a wide receiver who can also contribute on special teams.

Jackson Meeks WR | DET
Lions' Jackson Meeks: Elevated by Detroit for Week 11
The Lions elevated Meeks from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
The elevation of Meeks gives the Lions additional depth at wide receiver in case rookie third-rounder Isaac TeSlaa (oblique) is unable to play against the Eagles on Sunday. It's Meeks' second elevation of the season, and during his first appearance against the Browns in Week 4 he played 13 snaps (four on offense, nine on special teams) without showing up in the box score otherwise.

Tom Kennedy WR | DET
Lions' Tom Kennedy: Gets opportunity for Week 11
The Lions elevated Kennedy from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Kennedy's elevation gives the Lions depth at wide receiver in case rookie third-rounder Isaac TeSlaa (oblique) is unable to play against the Eagles on Sunday. Kennedy appeared in four regular-season games in 2024, and he gives Detroit another option as a returner on kickoffs and punts.

Dalen Cambre WR | NYG
Giants' Dalen Cambre: Elevated from practice squad
The Giants elevated Cambre from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
It's the first time Cambre has been elevated to the Giants' active roster this season, and he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Packers. The undrafted rookie gives the Giants an additional return option on punts and an extra option at wide receiver in the absence of Darius Slayton (hamstring).

Gabe Davis WR | BUF
Bills' Gabe Davis: Elevated from practice squad
The Bills elevated Davis from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Davis was taken off the practice squad injured list in late October after recovering from a lingering knee injury, and the 2020 fourth-rounder is poised to suit up for Buffalo for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay. Given his connection with Josh Allen during four seasons with the Bills, Davis could be utilized in the offensive gameplan alongside Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer, especially in the absence of tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring). During the 2023 regular season with the Bills, Davis caught 45 passes (on 81 targets) for 746 yards and seven touchdowns across 17 games.

Mecole Hardman WR | BUF
Bills' Mecole Hardman: Signed to Buffalo's active roster
The Bills signed Hardman from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Hardman landed on the Bills' practice squad this past Monday, nearly two months after being let go by the Packers. He'll now be a member of Buffalo's active roster and will give the team another option as a returner on special teams and at wide receiver. Hardman appeared in 12 regular-season games for the Chiefs in 2024 and logged 12 catches (on 14 targets) for 90 yards along with five carries for 62 yards and a score. He also turned five kickoff returns into 132 yards and 20 punt returns into 203 yards.

Malik Heath WR | ATL
Packers' Malik Heath: Out for Sunday
Heath (coach's decision) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Heath has played a rotational role for the Packers this season, making an appearance in all 10 games, recording six receptions on six targets for 86 yards. This could be a positive sign for the status of fellow wideouts Matthew Golden (shoulder) and Savion Williams (foot), who are both questionable for Week 11.
-
Jermaine Burton WR | CIN
Bengals' Jermaine Burton: Won't play Sunday
Burton (illness) has been downgraded and ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.
Burton practiced in full Friday and originally had no injury designation for the Week 11 divisional matchup, but he's since been ruled out due to an illness. Charlie Jones and Mitchell Tinsley could see more opportunities in Cincinnati's wide-receiver corps while Burton is sidelined Sunday.

Bryce Oliver WR | TEN
Titans' Bryce Oliver: Heads to IR
The Titans placed Oliver (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official website reports.
Oliver was limited in practice all week and was ruled out for the Titans' Week 11 game against the Texans. Now heading to IR, the 25-year-old will miss at least the next four games as he continues to recover from a knee injury. Julius Chestnut and Chimere Dike are expected to continue with kick return duties while Oliver remains out.

Isaac TeSlaa WR | DET
Lions' Isaac TeSlaa: Late addition to injury report
The Lions added TeSlaa (oblique) to the injury report Saturday and have listed him as questionable for Sunday's road matchup against the Eagles, Tim Twentyman of the team's official site reports.
TeSlaa has enjoyed a healthy rookie season to date, as his only prior appearance on the injury report came due to an illness Week 1, which he managed to play through. Now, though, it's possible his status for Sunday Night Football will come down to the wire. The issue could also negatively impact TeSlaa's odds of getting more involved on offense Week 11, even if he manages to tough it out. He did bump up to a 29-percent snap share on offense during the Lions' win over Washington in Week 10, though that usage only translated to one target, which he secured for an 11-yard gain.
