Brown (groin) logged another limited practice Tuesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Brown was also a limited participant on the team's estimated practice report Monday. With the team taking the field Thursday against the Bears, his inability to log a full practice two days out will make his status for Wednesday worth watching. This is especially true with Jahan Dotson (hamstring) still unable to practice, because if both were to sit, Cam Sims and Dax Milne would be worth a look in single-game DFS contests Thursday.

Benson signed to the Broncos' practice squad Tuesday.

Benson was signed by the Broncos as an undrafted free agent back in 2019, then spent two years off and on the team's practice squad. He ultimately ended up with the Lions via a trade in August of 2021, but he failed to make the team out of training camp this season when he was placed on IR with an undisclosed injury. However, Benson is now healthy and will look to contribute for Denver and work his way to the active roster.

Carter caught both of his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 30-28 win over the Browns.

Carter continues to see plenty of playing time (59 percent of the offensive snaps Sunday), but after a three-game stretch to begin the season as a deep-threat specialist, the Chargers have simply used his speed as a decoy, and in the process, limited his average depth of target dramatically. Keenan Allen (hamstring) should be back soon, which in turn would likely dramatically cut Carter's playing time.

Hardman reeled in four of five targets for 73 yards during Monday's 30-29 victory over Las Vegas.

The lone incompletion to Hardman came on a late-game deep shot that could have put him over the top from a fantasy perspective, but this outing paces any previous this season in receptions, targets and yards. However, he played a season-low 40 percent of the snaps, which seems to tell a different story from his box score effort.

Moore logged two receptions (on three targets) for 15 yards during Monday's 30-29 win versus Las Vegas.

Moore did see a slight uptick to 25 offensive snaps in this one, marking a career-high total on that front. It also represents back-to-back weeks the rookie has posted career-best outputs. To be fair, the Chiefs trailed 17-0 and 20-7 in this one, so there was a more pass-heavy approach than usual that likely contributed to Moore's uptick. Still, it's an encouraging sign to see Moore a bit more involved in the offense.

Palmer tallied three receptions (six targets) for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-28 win over the Browns.

Keenan Allen (hamstring) surprisingly continues to miss time, but it hasn't really helped the fantasy prospects of Palmer who registered his second consecutive game with fewer than four receptions. Palmer had built up a bit of preseason hype after emerging as the team's No. 3 wideout during training camp, but he's been an inconsistent disappointment for a team that typically passes the ball plenty. A difficult matchup against the Broncos secondary is up next for Palmer and company.

Dotson (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's injury report, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

The Commanders seemed to go through a light practice or walkthrough, but Dotson remained on the side and worked with team trainers, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. Dotson hasn't logged any noticeable on-field work since he left a Week 4 loss at Dallas, the result of a hamstring injury that coach Ron Rivera said at the time would keep the rookie first-rounder sidelined one or two games. With just one practice to go this week, Dotson doesn't appear to be in a great spot ahead of Thursday's game in Chicago.

Adams' shove of a credentialed worker after Monday night's loss to Kansas City is being reviewed by the NFL, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.

Adams issued an apology after Monday's loss via his official Twitter account, but it's possible that the league's investigation into the incident could result in a fine or suspension. The star wideout recorded two long touchdowns on three catches (seven targets) for 124 yards Monday, continuing what has been another outstanding season for the 29-year-old.

Hollins failed to haul in any of his four targets in Monday's 30-29 loss to Kansas City.

Hollins was held without a catch as Hunter Renfrow returned from a two-game absence, but it wasn't due to a lack of opportunity as the former accrued over 100 air yards on four targets while playing 61 of the Raiders' 64 offensive snaps. Drops were an issue for Hollins, while Davante Adams stole the spotlight with three receptions for 124 yards and two scores. Hollins will look to bounce back against the Texans after Las Vegas' bye in Week 6.

Renfrow recorded four catches on four targets for 39 yards in Monday's 30-29 loss to the Chiefs.

Renfrow returned from a two-game absence caused by a concussion. While his stat line doesn't jump out. the Raiders' passing attack largely fell flat aside from a few long touchdowns to Davante Adams. As a result, Renfrow finished second on the team in receptions, and he could be in for a significant role in Week 7 if Darren Waller (hamstring) can't get healthy during the team's bye week.
