Snead reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Snead bounced back and forth between San Francisco's active roster and practice squad over the first four weeks, and he saw his first playing time of the season Sunday after being activated on game day. The 29-year-old wideout was not targeted while playing five of his 11 snaps on offense against the Falcons in Week 6.

Palmer recorded nine receptions on 12 targets for 57 yards in Monday's 19-16 win over the Broncos.

Palmer finished second on the team in targets and receptions, also posting his best marks of the season in those areas. He worked primarily in the short areas of the field -- his longest reception went for 14 yards -- as Justin Herbert was unable to push the ball down the field effectively. Palmer's role will likely dwindle once Keenan Allen (hamstring) is able to return.

Jeudy recorded three receptions on seven targets for 54 yards in Monday's 19-16 loss to the Chargers.

The Broncos' offense failed to get going once again, so Jeudy led the team in targets, yards and receptions despite his modest numbers. He did the majority of his damage on a 37-yard reception on Denver's second possession to help set up its lone touchdown of the game. The state of the team's offense will lead to inconsistent results for Jeudy, though he has topped 50 receiving yards with at least one catch of 20 yards in each of his last three games.

Sutton recorded two receptions on three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Chargers.

Sutton entered the contest having seen a minimum of seven targets in every game this season, but he didn't come close in Monday's loss. Unsurprisingly, he also posted season-low marks in receptions and yards in a generally poor performance. While it's likely a safe bet that Sutton will bounce back in Week 7 against the Jets, the current state of Denver's offense makes it difficult to rely upon any player to consistently produce.

Carter caught three of five targets for 17 yards in Monday's 19-16 win over the Broncos.

Both Carter and tight end Gerald Everett acted as Justin Herbert's security blankets on a night when the Broncos pass rush was consistently in the quarterback's face. Carter had lost playing time in prior weeks though, and Monday's outing doesn't necessarily represent a change in fortune. Keenan Allen (hamstring) hinted he could make his return next week, which would all but end Carter's offensive snaps.

Williams caught just two of his six targets for 17 yards in the 19-16 win Monday over the Broncos.

Credit goes to second-year cornerback Patrick Surtain, as the Chargers essentially gave up attempting to target Williams after a first quarter dominated by the young secondary player. The big-bodied target nearly came down with a spectacular toe-tapping catch late in the fourth quarter, but the would-be reception was about the only opportunity Williams had to make any impact Monday. Expect a better outing next week with a possible return of Keenan Allen (hamstring) on the horizon.

Winfree reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Winfree was promoted to Green Bay's game-day roster for the third time this season after landing with the team's practice squad at the end of training camp. However, the 26-year-old failed to haul in his lone target while playing 13 offensive snaps behind fellow wideouts Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs, Randall Cobb (ankle) and Amari Rodgers on Sunday. Now that the team has exercised his last remaining practice squad elevation of the season, it's possible the Packers choose to add Winfree to the active roster, as Cobb, Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and Christian Watson (hamstring) are all dealing with injuries.

Callaway caught three of seven targets for 36 yards during Sunday's 30-26 defeat against the Bengals.

Callaway paced the Saints' wide receiver corps in targets and offensive snaps with starters Michael Thomas (foot), Jarvis Landry (ankle) and Chris Olave (concussion) all out due to injury Sunday. However, the 24-year-old still finished third on the team in receiving yards behind Tre'Quan Smith (43 yards) and tight end Juwan Johnson (41 yards). With primary returner Deonte Harty (foot) on IR, Callaway also fair caught one punt while splitting those duties with undrafted rookie Rashid Shaheed. Callaway now has played at least 72 percent of New Orleans' offensive snaps in each of the last three games, recording eight receptions (on 16 targets) for 94 yards during this span. He again figures to see increased playing time if Thomas and/or Landry remain sidelined Thursday against the Cardinals.

Wims reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Wims was promoted to the active roster for the first time this season during Sunday's 19-9 loss to the Seahawks. However, 28-year-old was never targeted while playing five of Arizona's 71 offensive snaps. Wims will now be eligible for two more elevations while on the Cardinals' practice squad this season.

Humphrey reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday.

Humphrey was waived by New England on Tuesday before re-signing with the team's practice squad Thursday. The 24-year was then activated to the active roster with wide receiver Nelson Agholor (hamstring) sidelined for Week 6. Humphrey ultimately did not record a statistic while playing just one special-teams snap during the 38-15 win over the Browns, and he'll now be eligible for two more elevations from the Patriots' practice squad this season.
