Hutchinson will likely see more playing time Week 7 with Christian Kirk (hamstring) ruled out against the Seahawks on Monday, Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Hutchinson splashed in Week 5's victory over the Ravens, when he caught two touchdown passes -- the wide receiver's first two scores since being drafted in 2023. He and Jaylin Noel are the most likely beneficiaries of Kirk's absence, although it should be noted that Houston's gameplan is expected to have a run-heavy focus. Head coach DeMeco Ryans talked about leaning on the running backs earlier in the week. Even so, if the running attack is successful, that could benefit the passing game, and targets might accrue to Hutchinson and the rest of the group.

Iosivas had three catches for 49 yards in Thursday's win over the Steelers on four targets. He dropped one pass early in the game.

Iosivas made a big impact late in the third quarter, hauling in a 40-yard reception to convert a 3rd-and-4 play when the Bengals were trying to extend a three-point lead. He's had four-plus targets in three straight games while working primarily behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Iosivas played 70 percent of the offensive snaps Thursday.

Diggs (chest), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Diggs turned in limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday but was a full participant Friday, so the prevailing expectation was that he would be available for the Week 7 contest. While the Patriots may not officially confirm Diggs' status until they release their inactive list roughly 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, fantasy managers can consider the veteran wideout to be trending in the right direction. He had put up consecutive 100-plus-yard receiving performances before falling back down to earth in a 25-19 win over the Saints this past weekend, when Diggs secured all three of his targets for just 28 yards.

Meyers (knee/toe), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, will have his status determined by a pregame workout, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Meyers resumed practicing in a limited capacity Friday after having been a non-participant Wednesday and Thursday, and he now looks like a true game-time decision for Week 7. Fantasy managers will want to prepare to have another lineup option available in the event that Meyers is made inactive for the first time this season ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. With tight end Brock Bowers (knee) expected to sit out versus Kansas City, an absence on Meyers' part would position receivers Tre Tucker, Jack Bech, Dont'e Thornton and tight end Michael Mayer as the Raiders' top pass-catching options. After facing the Chiefs, Las Vegas will go on bye Week 8.

The 49ers elevated Turner from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Turner will be elevated by the 49ers for the third time this season, which is the maximum amount of times for a player on a team's practice squad. Turner will provide support on special teams while adding depth to a 49ers wide receiver corps that is without Ricky Pearsall (knee) for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Reagor was cut from the Chargers' practice squad Saturday.

Reagor joined the Chargers' practice squad Oct. 7, but his time with the team was short-lived. He has yet to appear in a game this season.

The Commanders elevated Chosen from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Chosen joined the Commanders' practice squad at the end of September, but he has yet to appear in a game with the team. With both Deebo Samuel (heel) and Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) both sidelined, Chosen should have a chance to be active Sunday against the Cowboys.

The Titans have elevated Kinsey from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's matchup against New England, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Kinsey will provide Tennessee with extra depth at the wide receiver position, with both Calvin Ridley (hamstring) and Bryce Oliver (knee) unavailable Week 7. After Sunday's home game, Kinsey will be slated to revert to the Titans' practice squad.

The Colts elevated Treadwell to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday.

Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) have been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, leaving the Colts shorthanded at wide receiver. Treadwell has spent the entire season on the team's practice squad, with this elevation marking his first of the year.

The Giants have elevated Humphrey from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's road matchup against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

New York will be without Darius Slayton (hamstring) for a second consecutive game, while Malik Nabers (knee) is already done for the year, which positions Humphrey to again join Wan'Dale Robinson, Jalin Hyatt, Beaux Collins and Gunner Olszewski in the wide receiver corps. Humphrey was elevated Week 6 against the Eagles due to the same circumstance, a game in which he played 77 percent of offensive snaps and secured four of eight targets for 55 yards.
