Duvernay secured all three targets for 20 yards and returned two kickoffs for 44 yards in the Ravens' 19-14 loss to the Steelers on Wednesday.

The rookie third-round pick put together his second three-catch outing of the last three games, which was good enough to place him second in both receptions and yardage for Baltimore. Duvernay has yet to top three grabs or 45 receiving yards in any contest, but he's seen double-digit snaps from scrimmage in eight consecutive contests while also continuing to hold down primary kick-return duties. Duvernay will hope to reconnect with Lamar Jackson (reserve/COVID-19 list) for a favorable matchup against the Cowboys in a Week 13 Tuesday night battle.

Brown secured four of eight targets for 85 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens' 19-14 loss to the Steelers on Wednesday.

Brown ended up comfortably pacing the Ravens in receiving yardage, production that came largely on his 70-yard touchdown connection with third-string quarterback Trace McSorley in the fourth quarter. Brown showed off his elite speed on the play, one in which he gained 54 of the yards after the catch on his way to the end zone. The score was only Brown's third of the campaign and first since Week 8, which also came at the Steelers' expense. The second-year wideout will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 13 battle against the vulnerable Cowboys secondary Tuesday night.

Smith-Schuster recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in Wednesday's 19-14 win over the Ravens.

Ben Roethlisberger took to the air 51 times in the contest, leaving plenty of volume for all of his pass catchers. Smith-Schuster was used primarily in the short areas of the field, as he averaged only 4.1 yards per target despite hauling in nearly all of the looks he received. Even with the low yardage total, Smith-Schuster salvaged his day with a one-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter, giving him six scores on the season.

St. Brown (knee) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session.

Allen Lazard (abdomen) was also listed on the team's injury list at wide receiver, despite both players seeing action in Sunday night's win over the Bears. St. Brown logged his best game of the season last week, catching both of his targets for 39 yards, and adding a seven-yard rush. The Notre Dame product has been a regular on the Packers' practice reports this season, so it's too early to panic about his status for Sunday's game against Philadelphia.

Agholor didn't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury.

The injury is a new concern for Agholor, who played 42 of the Raiders' 63 offensive snaps in Sunday's 43-6 loss to the Falcons, finishing with five receptions for 54 yards. Thursday's practice report should provide a better indication if Agholor's absence Wednesday was maintenance-related, or if the ankle issue is something that truly puts his status for this weekend's game versus the Jets in jeopardy.

Jeudy (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

Jeudy was also limited last Friday, but he was able to suit up in Sunday's loss to the Saints. He didn't record a catch in the game, but that was mostly a byproduct of the Broncos running an extreme run-heavy offense while practice squad wideout Kendall Hinton was pressed into starting duties at quarterback. With Drew Lock in line to return under center Week 13 versus the Chiefs, Jeudy's fantasy prospects are looking up, assuming his ankle issue doesn't prevent him from playing in the divisional game.

Conley (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Conley was a limited participant in practice to close out last week, but he was ultimately inactive for the Jaguars' loss to the Browns. With that in mind, the Jaguars may want to see him put in a full practice by Friday to feel good about his chances of playing Sunday in Minnesota.

Lazard (core) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Lazard took a big hit in Sunday's win over the Bears, resulting in him heading to the sideline for a bit. He ended up returning, though, and played 46 percent of the snaps on offense en route to four catches (on six targets) for 23 yards and one touchdown. Lazard has two more opportunities to elevate to full activity in practice before the Packers potentially give him a designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Chark (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Chark wasn't able to practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for last weekend's game against the Browns, so his ability to begin the current week as a limited participant is a sign of progress. Mike Glennon is in line to start at quarterback during Sunday's game in Minnesota, so if Chark is cleared to return Week 13, he'll face the challenge of working with his third different signal-caller of the season.

The 49ers activated Aiyuk (undisclosed) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

As expected, Aiyuk is back on the active roster after spending two different stints on the reserve list. He hasn't played since Week 10, but at that point, he had recorded touchdowns in three of his last four games. Aiyuk will look to reconnect with Nick Mullens this Monday against the Bills.
