Isaiah Bond WR | CLE
Browns' Isaiah Bond: Cleared for Sunday's game
Bond (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens after practicing fully Friday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Bond -- who was inactive Week 10 -- was limited Wednesday and Thursday, but a full session Friday paves the way for the wideout to be available to face Baltimore in Week 11. That said, with Cedric Tillman back in the starting WR mix alongside Jerry Jeudy, and TEs David Njoku and Harold Fannin both commanding their share of targets on a weekly basis, Bond doesn't have a clear path to steady volume in Cleveland's offense.

Calvin Ridley WR | TEN
Titans' Calvin Ridley: Questionable for Sunday
Ridley (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Ridley has missed three consecutive games, but following the Titans' Week 10 bye, the wideout logged limited practices Wednesday through Friday, which gives him a chance to return to action this weekend. Fortunately for those considering Ridley in Week 11 fantasy lineups, Tennessee kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. If Ridley is limited or out versus Houston, however, Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor and Van Jefferson would be in line to continue to see added WR opportunities.

Rashod Bateman WR | BAL
Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Not playing Sunday
Bateman (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Cleveland.
Bateman emerged from this past Sunday's game with an ankle sprain that resulted in him wearing a walking boot afterward. He then didn't practice Wednesday through Friday before the Ravens made a ruling on his status for Week 11. Zay Flowers will lead Baltimore's group of wide receivers Sunday, while DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester are the other options at the position on the active roster. Bateman's next chance for game action is Sunday, Nov. 23 against the Jets.

Jahdae Walker WR | CHI
Bears' Jahdae Walker: Out for Week 11
Walker (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
The 23-year-old is now in line to miss his second consecutive game due to a concussion. Walker has appeared in five games this season, contributing primarily on special teams (61 snaps on special teams, six snaps on offense). He must still clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol before returning to in-game action.

Cedric Tillman WR | CLE
Browns' Cedric Tillman: Cleared to face Ravens
Tillman (glute) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Tillman upgraded to full participation Friday after a pair of limited practice showings to avoid a Week 11 injury designation. Heading into his second game back from a stint on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury, Tillman projects to operate as Cleveland's No. 2 wide receiver alongside Jerry Jeudy.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | GB
Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Cleared for Sunday
Wicks (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Christian Watson (knee/hamstring) and Romeo Doubs (chest) also avoided injury designations, while Matthew Golden (shoulder) is listed as questionable. Wicks seems most in danger of losing snaps to Golden if the rookie returns after missing Week 10.

Christian Watson WR | GB
Packers' Christian Watson: Good to go
Watson (knee/hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
The addition of a hamstring injury on Green Bay's Week 11 injury report initially seemed concerning in light of Watson's repeated issues with his hamstrings in 2022 and 2023. It now seems less concerning, with Watson cleared to play after clarifying that his practice reps had been limited for the usual reason (maintenance after last year's ACL tear). He played a season-high 82 percent of snaps in last week's 10-7 loss to the Eagles, but that was with Matthew Golden (questionable - shoulder) inactive and Romeo Doubs (chest) getting banged up. Doubs and Dontayion Wicks (calf) join Watson in avoiding Week 11 injury designations, giving Jordan Love at least three of his top four WRs.

Matthew Golden WR | GB
Packers' Matthew Golden: Questionable for Sunday
Golden (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Fellow rookie wideout Savion Williams (foot) is also listed as questionable, while Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (chest) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) are all cleared to play. Doubs has been the safest bet for playing time and targets whenever he's healthy, but Watson and Wicks also took a comfortable majority of snaps in Monday's 10-7 loss to the Eagles. Week 11 projections for Watson and Wicks partially depend on whether Golden is declared inactive ahead of a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. If the speedy rookie plays, it'll be the first time Green Bay has all of Doubs, Golden, Watson and Wicks available for the same game.

Parker Washington WR | JAC
Jaguars' Parker Washington: Cleared despite limited practices
Washington (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Washington didn't practice Wednesday and was limited both Thursday and Friday, but he has gained clearance to suit up Sunday. He has been targeted at least seven times in each of Jacksonville's last three games, but Washington's usage may dip if the Jaguars get Brian Thomas (ankle) back Sunday. Thomas is listed as questionable.

Jermaine Burton WR | CIN
Bengals' Jermaine Burton: Ready for Week 11
Burton (illness) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.
The second-year wideout from Alabama didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, but he logged a full session Friday, indicating that he's moved past the issue in time to play Sunday. Now fully healthy, Burton is expected to play a depth role in Cincinnati's wide-receiver corps in the Week 11 divisional matchup.
