  • Justin Watson WR | HOU

    Texans' Justin Watson: Won't return Monday

    Watson (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's wild-card game against the Steelers.

    Watson suffered a head injury during the third quarter and has been diagnosed with a concussion. He didn't get any touches or targets prior to his departure. With Nico Collins (concussion) also ruled out for the remainder of the wild-card contest, Houston's wideout corps for the rest of the game consists of Jayden Higgins, Christian Kirk, Xavier Hutchinson and Jaylin Noel.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Out with concussion

    Collins will not return to Monday's wild-card game against the Steelers.

    Collins hit his head hard off the turf on an incomplete pass late in the third quarter and was carted to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion. His performance ends with three catches for 21 yards. Assuming the Texans can hold onto their fourth-quarter lead, Collins will aim to clear concussion protocol in time for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against New England.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Shaken up against Pittsburgh

    Collins is questionable to return to Monday's wild-card game against the Steelers due to a head injury.

    Collins has had a couple of hard collisions during the game, and he most recently hit his head directly off the turf on an incomplete pass late in the third quarter. He struggled to get off the field and was carted to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion, so his return looks to be highly questionable. Collins recorded three receptions for 21 yards prior to his exit.

  • Justin Watson WR | HOU

    Texans' Justin Watson: Undergoing concussion evaluation

    Watson is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Monday's wild-card game against Pittsburgh.

    Watson was deemed questionable to return near the end of the third quarter. He spent some time in the medical tent before walking to the locker room. Watson typically serves as a depth wideout and also contributes on special teams.

  • Darius Cooper WR | PHI

    Eagles' Darius Cooper: Nine catches in rookie season

    Cooper appeared in 13 regular-season games in his rookie season, finishing with nine catches for 92 yards.

    All nine of Cooper's catches came in the final seven weeks of the season, with a season-high three coming in Week 18 with the Eagles resting their starters. Credit for Cooper for earning a spot on the active roster from Week 1 as an undrafted free agent and for improving throughout the year, but it will take a shakeup to the Eagles' receiver room this offseason for him to have a shot at a fantasy-relevant role.

  • Jahan Dotson WR | PHI

    Eagles' Jahan Dotson: Finishes season with 18 catches

    Dotson finished his second season with the Eagles with a total of 18 receptions for 262 yards and one touchdown in 17 regular-season games.

    Dotson's numbers were very similar to last year's 19 catches for 216 yards and zero scores, a big step down from his average of 42 catches for 520.5 yards and 5.5 touchdowns in his first two years in the league with Washington. If he remains stuck behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith in Philadelphia again next season, expect similar production.

  • Jaguars' Austin Trammell: Back with Jacksonville

    The Jaguars signed Trammell to a reserve/future contract Monday.

    Trammell saw action in six games during the regular season, tallying three catches on 10 targets for 46 yards while returning one kickoff for 54 yards and one punt for 15 yards. The target and receiving-yardage totals were the most of his four-year NFL career, which highlights how little involvement Trammell has had as a pass catcher. Nonetheless, he'll have a chance to compete for a roster spot ahead of the 2026 campaign.

  • Jaguars' Chandler Brayboy: Re-signs with Jacksonville

    The Jaguars signed Brayboy to a reserve/future contract Monday.

    Brayboy joined the team as an undrafted free agent last May and ended up spending the entirety of the season on their practice squad after being waived in late August. The 24-year-old will look to compete for a spot on Jacksonville's roster during the 2026 campaign.

  • Tim Jones WR | JAC

    Jaguars' Tim Jones: Sticking around in Jacksonville

    The Jaguars signed Jones to a reserve/future contract Monday.

    Jones played full 17-game slates for the Jaguars from 2022 through 2024, but he got into just four contests (two with Minnesota and two with Jacksonville) during the 2025 regular season. He logged one catch for 15 yards on one target while working primarily on special teams. Jones was also elevated for Sunday's wild-card loss to Buffalo and recorded three special-teams snaps before reverting to the practice squad Monday. With a reserve/future contract in hand, he'll have a chance this offseason to make a case for a roster spot.

  • Malik Turner WR | SF

    Malik Turner: Reverts to practice squad

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

    Turner played four snaps on offense but failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's wild-card win over the Eagles. He also saw playing time on special teams and could be elevated again for next week's divisional matchup versus the Seahawks.
