  • Mike Evans WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Suffers broken collarbone

    Evans will be sidelined for most of the year after suffering a broken collarbone in Monday's 24-9 loss to the Lions, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Evans suffered the injury in the second quarter of Monday's loss while attempting to reel in a deep target. His absence will be a big blow to the Tampa Bay receiving corps, with Chris Godwin (leg) also banged up. Evans' streak of 11 straight campaigns with 1,000 receiving yards will also almost certainly come to an end.

  • Robbie Chosen WR | WAS

    Commanders' Robbie Chosen: Lands back on practice squad

    Chosen reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday.

    Chosen got his first chance of the season to suit up in this past Sunday's 44-22 loss to Dallas and played 33 of 67 offensive snaps, placing him fourth among Commanders wideouts. He caught all four of his targets for 36 yards, with the reception total leading all Washington players. Chosen's opportunity came as a result of Washington's wideout corps being depleted by injuries -- each of Terry McLaurin (quadriceps), Deebo Samuel (heel) and Noah Brown (groin) were unable to play. Chosen's path to further opportunities likely depends on when the team's injured wideouts are able to return.

  • Mason Kinsey WR | TEN

    Mason Kinsey: Returns to practice squad

    The Titans reverted Kinsey to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Kinsey was elevated to the active roster ahead of this past Sunday's loss to New England and played four of 53 snaps on offense along with 22 snaps on special teams. Kinsey didn't get into the box score on offense but did notch one tackle in the return game. Whether Kinsey gets another look on gameday in Week 8 versus Indianapolis could depend on whether Calvin Ridley (hamstring) and/or Bryce Oliver (knee) are ready to return to action.

  • Malik Turner WR | SF

    Malik Turner: Back with practice squad

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

    Turner was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 20-10 win over the Falcons, failing to record any stats on offensive while playing 10 snaps with the unit. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) unavailable, Turner's 10 offensive snaps ranked fourth at wide receiver, behind Jauan Jennings (57), Kendrick Bourne (52) and Demarcus Robinson (23). Additionally, Turner compiled two tackles on kick coverage and one takedown on punt coverage in Week 7. The wide receiver will now have to be officially signed to the active roster to appear in another game this season.

  • Giants' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Heads back to practice squad

    Humphrey reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    In this past Sunday's loss to Denver, Humphrey led New York's wideouts with 74 offensive snaps (out of a possible 77), though he got only two targets and didn't catch either of him. Malik Nabers (knee) is out for the season, so Humphrey could eventually be signed to the active roster to provide every-week receiver depth. His role could be reduced, however, when Darius Slayton (hamstring) is ready to return to action.

  • Shedrick Jackson: Heads back to practice squad

    Jackson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Jackson was elevated to the active roster to help fill in for Jakobi Meyers (knee) and Alex Bachman (ankle) in Week 7, failing to record any stats while playing three offensive snaps in the team's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs. The wide receiver can be elevated two more times before he'd have to be officially added to the active roster.

  • Laquon Treadwell: Returns to practice squad

    Treadwell reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Treadwell was elevated to the active roster for the first time this season, failing to play any offensive snaps in the team's 38-24 win over the Chargers. The wide receiver did log three tackles on kick coverage though, playing 12 snaps on special teams. Treadwell can be elevated two more times before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

  • Mike Evans WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Ruled out with pair of injuries

    Evans will not return to Monday's game against the Lions due to concussion and shoulder injuries, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Evans was hurt on an attempted catch deep down the field in the second quarter. He remained on the field for several minutes and was then carted to the locker room after walking to the sideline. Evans was quickly ruled out and is presumably set to undergo imaging to get further information on the shoulder injury.

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Carted to locker room

    Evans suffered a shoulder injury in Monday's game against the Lions, per the ESPN broadcast.

    Evans attempted to make a deep catch in the second quarter but jarred his upper body off the turf. He was on the field for a few minutes while being attended to by trainers. Evans was ultimately able to walk off the field, but he was seen being carted to the locker room on the broadcast.

  • Tyler Lockett: Time in Tennessee over

    The Titans granted Lockett his release Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    In seven games with the Titans, Lockett caught just 10 of his 21 targets for 70 yards. With the 33-year-old receiver not fitting the rebuilding 1-6 Titans' timeline, he'll be given the chance to catch on elsewhere for the remainder of the season. Even if Lockett lands with a playoff-contending team with stronger quarterback play, he'll likely struggle to find enough snaps to make a meaningful fantasy impact.
