Marquise Goodwin WR | CLE
Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Returns to Saturday's game
Goodwin (wrist) returned to Sunday's game against the Chiefs early in the fourth quarter, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Goodwin missed most of the third quarter after aggravating the wrist injury on the Seahawks' first possession of the second half, but after getting evaluated on the sideline, he received clearance to check back into the contest. He'll look to salvage what had been a fruitless day prior to his exit, as he failed to corral either of the two targets he drew through the first three quarters.

James Washington WR | ATL
Cowboys' James Washington: Healthy scratch Week 16
Washington (coach's decision) has been ruled inactive ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Eagles, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Washington sat out the first 12 games of the season while recovering from a foot injury, and the 26-year-old has logged just one target while playing 14 offensive snaps since returning to action Week 14. With Washington sidelined, T.Y. Hilton appears set to serve as the Cowboys' No. 4 wideout while making his season debut Saturday.

Marquise Goodwin WR | CLE
Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Aggravates wrist injury
Goodwin is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Chiefs with a wrist injury.
Before being cleared ahead of kickoff, Goodwin was listed as questionable heading into the day with wrist and ankle issues, so he's presumably dealing with an aggravation of the former injury. Per Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle, Goodwin appeared to suffer the injury in question while diving at an incomplete target from quarterback Geno Smith on an unsuccessful third-down attempt early in the third quarter. If Goodwin is unable to return, he'll finish the day without a reception on two targets.

Shi Smith WR | KC
Panthers' Shi Smith: Questionable to return
Smith (foot/head) is questionable to return to Saturday's game versus Detroit, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Smith caught one of two targets for 17 yards before exiting with separate foot and head injuries, though it's unclear when or how these issues first arose. With Rashard Higgins (coach's decision) already inactive, the Panthers will be left with three available wideouts for the time being.

Tyler Boyd WR | TEN
Bengals' Tyler Boyd: Returns Saturday after brief absence
Boyd (finger) returned to Saturday's game against the Patriots after briefly exiting the contest, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
The Bengals listed Boyd as questionable to return to Saturday's contest after he apparently suffered an aggravation of the surgically repaired finger on his left hand, but the receiver looks like he'll be good to go for the rest of the afternoon upon being evaluated on the sideline for a brief spell.

Tyler Boyd WR | TEN
Bengals' Tyler Boyd: Aggravates finger injury
Boyd is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Patriots due a left finger injury, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Boyd underwent surgery on one of his fingers two weeks earlier, so he presumably aggravated the digit in question at some point during Saturday's contest. If Boyd is unable to return to the Week 16 contest, he'll finish the game without a target.

Chris Moore WR | BAL
Texans' Chris Moore: In clear for Saturday
Moore (foot) is active for Saturday's game against the Titans.
Moore was a limited practice participant all week due to the foot issue, but now that he's avoided the inactive list, he should be secure in a full-time starting role both Saturday and for the rest of the season, after Nico Collins (foot) was moved to injured reserve. While both Collins and Brandin Cooks (calf) were sidelined for the past two weeks, Moore served as Houston's top option in the passing game, garnering 19 targets between those contests. Cooks is back in action after a three-game absence and should step back in as Houston's No. 1 wideout, but there could still be enough target volume to go around for Moore to retain fantasy relevance.

Tyquan Thornton WR | KC
Patriots' Tyquan Thornton: Suits up versus Bengals
Thornton (knee) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Bengals.
With DeVante Parker (concussion) inactive, Thornton should continue to see added snaps Saturday, but with a 17/166/1 stat line on 33 targets through 10 games overall, the 2022 second-rounder remains a speculative fantasy lineup option in Week 16.

Marquise Goodwin WR | CLE
Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Good to go for Saturday
Goodwin (ankle/wrist) is active for Saturday's game against the Chiefs.
Goodwin, who had been managing the wrist issue heading into the week, was listed as questionable for Saturday's contest after he suffered a lateral ankle sprain during Wednesday's practice. He wasn't able to log any reps during the Seahawks' final session of the week Thursday, though coach Pete Carroll characterized his absence as more of a rest day. Assuming that's indeed the case, Goodwin shouldn't face any major restrictions in Kansas City, where he'll likely be stepping into a more pronounced role in the Seattle passing attack. DK Metcalf remains the Seahawks' unquestioned No. 1 target, but Goodwin or tight end Noah Fant could be next in line for looks from quarterback Geno Smith while Tyler Lockett (finger) is sidelined this weekend.
