Perriman (ankle) won't practice Thursday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Perriman doesn't seem likely to suit up Sunday against the Cardinals and if he remains sidelined this weekend, Chris Hogan and Jeff Smith figure handle increased roles in the Jets' passing offense alongside slot man Jamison Crowder.

Evans (ankle) will need to successfully complete pre-game workouts in order to be active Thursday night against Chicago, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Evans was the team's most targeted wide receiver Week 4 against the Chargers with Chris Godwin (hamstring) sidelined, but he emerged from the game with an ankle injury that forced him out of practice for the entire week. Even though he's operating on a short week, there's still optimism that Evans will take the field, though it absolutely warrants confirmation roughly 90 minutes prior to the 8:20 p.m. EST kickoff. Evans could be in for another target-heavy week if everything checks out in warmups, as Godwin has again been ruled out, while Scotty Miller (hip/groin) is considered questionable for the contest (though he's expected to play). A tough matchup awaits, however, as Evans and co. will be facing a Chicago team that hasn't given up a touchdown to an opposing wide receiver all year.

Miller (hip/groin) is expected to play Thursday night against the Bears, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Miller was one of few members of his position group to see meaningful practice time this week, and it's looking like that might pay off if he's indeed active for the contest (that will be worth confirming prior to the 8:20 p.m. EST kickoff). Fellow wideout Chris Godwin (hamstring) has already been ruled out for the matchup, while Rapoport is reporting the status of Mike Evans (ankle) will hinge on his pregame workout. The Chicago defense hasn't been particularly kind to opposing wide receivers this season, giving up the third-least points to the position in standard formats, but a heavy usage night for Miller -- depending on how inactives shake out -- could still make him warrant fantasy consideration.

Davis hauled in his lone target for a 26-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Raiders.

Cole Beasley battled through a foot injury during Sunday's game, and Davis ended up out-snapping the veteran and finishing with 57 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Josh Allen didn't look his way much, but he made the most of his only target, finding the end zone for the second time in three weeks. With an 8-129-2 line through four games, Davis is an interesting player to keep an eye on, especially if Beasley or John Brown (calf) ends up missing time.

Pettis (knee) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Pettis suffered the knee injury in Sunday's loss to the Eagles, but the good news was he didn't aggravate the issue. The depth of the receiving room could be tested heading into Week 5's game against the Dolphins, as Trent Taylor (ankle) was also limited in Wednesday's practice. Expect Thursday's practice to shed some light on both guys' injury status.

Taylor (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

It's unclear when Taylor suffered the injury, but he was unable to haul in his only target during Sunday's loss to Philadelphia. Expect Taylor's practice status throughout the week to be a better indication of his chances to suit up in Week 5. With Dante Pettis (knee) also dealing with injury, it's unclear how the receiver depth chart will look for Week 5.

Edwards (ankle/foot) was sidelined at Wednesday's practice, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

Edwards missed the Raiders' Week 4 loss to the Bills, and his absence from practice Wednesday doesn't bode especially well for his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Chiefs. On the plus side for the Raiders, fellow rookie wideout Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday.

Arcega-Whiteside (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Arcega-Whiteside sat out the Eagles' Week 4 win over the 49ers due to his calf injury, but he now looks to be back to full health. The second-year wideout failed to record a catch while playing a part-time role on offense during Philadelphia's first three games of the season, and he has a tough matchup in Pittsburgh on deck Sunday. He'll be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes Week 5.

Thielen was listed as a limited participant at practice Wednesday with a shoulder injury.

A shoulder injury is to blame for Thielen's lack of reps, but a limited listing to begin the week is generally a positive sign for a player's upcoming availability. On the season, he has two 100-yard efforts to his name and has scored four times in four games, proving his standing as the Vikings' top wide receiver.

Moore (thigh/finger) was limited during Wednesday's practice.

Moore sat out Week 4 against Washington, and it appeared that was more due to his thigh injury than the finger issue. Nevertheless, he's starting the week limited and should have a chance to suit up Sunday against the Bengals if the rest of the practice week goes well.
