Chase (hip) said Wednesday that he's preparing as though he'll play Sunday against the Chiefs, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

The wideout -- who last suited up Week 7 -- indicated that he'll see how the rest of the week goes, but he affirmed that he's "expecting to take some reps" versus Kansas City. Per Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Chase disclosed that he's returning from a hairline fracture of his hip and a hyperextended right leg, and while there had been hope that he would play in the Week 12 win over the Titans, he wasn't feeling comfortable enough to take the field. As this weekend's game approaches, however, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer relays that Chase says his hip is now pain-free.

Young wasn't targeted while playing one of the Seahawks' 65 snaps on offense in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.

Dee Eskridge's (hand) move to injured reserve ahead of the Week 12 contest didn't translate to any added opportunities on offense for Young. Rather than turning to Young to replace Eskridge as the Seahawks' No. 4 receiver, practice-squad call-up Laquon Treadwell (seven snaps) handled that role.

McCloud played six of the 49ers' 70 snaps on offense and recorded a 12-yard reception in Sunday's 13-0 win over the Saints.

After failing to corral his lone target in the 49ers' Week 11 win over the Cardinals, McCloud got back on the stat sheet Sunday with his 11th catch of the season. The former Clemson standout is clearly behind Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings on the depth chart at receiver and is unlikely to see his role expand unless one of those three players misses time.

Bandy went without a target while taking the field for two of the Chargers' 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 25-24 win over the Cardinals.

Even though the Chargers were without Mike Williams (ankle), Bandy still couldn't carve out much of a role in Los Angeles' receiver rotation. The two snaps were Bandy's fewest in his eight appearances on the season.

Wallace played all 16 of his snaps on special teams during Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Jaguars.

Wallace has dressed for both of the Ravens' last two games, but the former Oklahoma State standout receiver has been limited to just two snaps on offense during that stretch. All of Devin Duvernay, Demarcus Robinson, DeSean Jackson and James Proche appear to be ahead of Wallace in the pecking order at receiver.

The Cowboys are expected to designate Washington (foot) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Once the transaction is official, Washington will be eligible to practice Wednesday for the first time since Aug. 1, when he fractured his foot early in training camp and ultimately required surgery. Before getting hurt, Washington looked to be in strong position to begin the season as the Cowboys' No. 2 receiver behind CeeDee Lamb, but Michael Gallup completed his recovery from ACL surgery early in the season and has settled into that role since Week 4. The Cowboys will have a 21-day window to evaluate Washington in practice before adding him to the 53-man roster, but even once he's activated, the 26-year-old may be only a minor part of the offensive game plan.

The Eagles signed Baker to their practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Baker is now in line to serve as added depth for Philadelphia's wide receiver corps, after he was previously let go by the Saints in mid-October following his six-game suspension for violating the league's PED policy. The 24-year-old also spent a few weeks on the Packers' practice squad this season but failed to make any game appearances in that span.

Marshall caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Broncos.

Marshall's three targets were the second most of any Panthers pass catcher behind only DJ Moore, who finished with four catches on six targets for 103 yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Sam Darnold made his first start of the season Sunday, and while Carolina's receivers had to deal with yet another in-season quarterback change, Moore was the biggest benefactor. Marshall just couldn't get anything going on a day when Darnold threw for only 164 yards. The second-year wideout will look to build chemistry with his signal caller as the team enters its bye week. The Panthers visit the Seahawks in Week 14, and Marshall will look to take a step forward and improve upon his underwhelming Week 12 performance.

White reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

White was activated for the first time ahead of Monday's win over the Colts, and he wound up catching his lone target for two yards during his NFL debut. The undrafted rookie still played just 10 of his 19 snaps on offense with fifth-string wideout Miles Boykin (oblique) inactive Week 12. White will now be eligible for two more elevations while with Pittsburgh's practice squad this season.

Robinson caught one of four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Jaguars.

After catching all nine of his targets for 128 yards in Week 11, Robinson's one-catch performance was disappointing to say the least. In what appeared to be a good match on paper for Ravens receivers, Robinson and Devin Duvernay both failed to make an impact. With that said, Robinson should continue to get looks with Rashod Bateman (foot) out for the remainder of the season. Robinson will have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 13 when the Ravens host the Broncos.
