Perriman (knee/hamstring) was a non-participant at practice Wednesday.

Perriman was listed with a knee injury on Week 2 and 3 practice reports, but he now has an additional injury to worry about heading into Week 4. With Mike Evans back from his one-game suspension and Chris Godwin (hamstring), Julio Jones (knee) and Russell Gage (hamstring) all practicing in a limited capacity Wednesday, Perriman soon may be returning to a tertiary role in Tampa Bay's passing game, assuming he's active at all Sunday versus the Chiefs.

Gage (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Gage joined Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) as limited participants, while Breshad Perriman (knee/hamstring) was unable to practice at all. Elsewhere in Tampa Bay's receiving corps, Mike Evans wasn't listed on the injury report as he returns from a one-game suspension. If one or both of Godwin and Jones is able to play Sunday versus the Chiefs, Gage would have a tough time replicating the 13 targets he drew when Evans, Godwin and Jones were sidelined during a Week 3 loss to the Packers.

Godwin (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.

The limited session marks Godwin's first on-field work since hurting his hamstring back in Week 1. It's a sign that he's attempting to ramp for a return Sunday against the Chiefs, but his ability to get through practice Thursday and Friday unscathed likely will go a long way in allowing him to return from a two-game absence. Meanwhile, Russell Gage (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) were also limited participants in the Bucs' first Week 4 practice, and Breshad Perriman (knee/hamstring) didn't participate.

Philips (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' officials site reports.

Philips, who was inactive for last week's win over the Raiders after heading into the contest listed as doubtful, sported what Wyatt described as a "yellow caution jersey" during Wednesday's session. Unless the rookie fifth-round pick is able to practice fully by Friday, he'll likely approach Sunday's game against the Colts with an injury designation.

Chark was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to ankle injury.

Limited participation puts him a step ahead of fellow Detroit wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Josh Reynolds, both of whom were held out with ankle injuries. All three wideouts could be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, but Chark's target share projection would get a nice boost if he were able to play and if St. Brown wasn't.

Burks didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Burks, who totaled seven catches on 11 targets through Tennessee's first two games, was on the field for 40 of a possible 58 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Raiders, but he recorded just one reception (on two targets) for 13 yards in the contest. Assuming the illness that sidelined him Wednesday doesn't affect his Week 4 status, the rookie first-round pick will look to turn in a bounce-back performance this Sunday against the Colts.

St. Brown (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in practice Wednesday.

St. Brown played through an ankle issue Week 3 at Minnesota and still put up six catches (on nine targets) for 73 yards in a 28-24 loss. On Wednesday, he told Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com that he's dealing with nothing more than a sprained right ankle and views himself as day-to-day. Considering his comment, St. Brown may in danger of sitting out Sunday against the Seahawks, so his status should continue to be watched as the weekend approaches.

Proche wasn't listed on the injury report Wednesday.

Proche missed back-to-back games due to a groin injury, but it appears he'll be good to go for Week 4. Regardless, he'll have a tough time garnering many targets playing behind Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay and Demarcus Robinson.

Meyers (knee) was listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.

Meyers was inactive for this past Sunday's game against the Ravens after logging a limited practice Friday. With another limited session under his belt, it's possible that Meyers could return to action this weekend against the Packers, but he'll need to practice fully by the end of the week in order to avoid a Week 4 injury designation. In Meyers' absence last weekend, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor worked as New England's top wide receiver targets.

Davis (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Davis returned for Week 3 after sitting out a Week 2 over the Titans, playing 96 percent of snaps on offense and catching three of six targets for 37 yards in the 21-19 loss to Miami. He's on track to face a struggling Ravens secondary this Sunday in Baltimore.
