Evans (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest at New Orleans.

The Buccaneers seem to be waiting until Sunday to make a final call on Evans' availability for Week 1, but the fact he was tagged with a "doubtful" designation is not a great sign that he'll be active. He did get back on the practice field Friday in a limited capacity, but if Evans is unable to suit up this weekend, Chris Godwin will be the unquestioned No. 1 wide receiver, while Scotty Miller, Justin Watson and rookie Tyler Johnson will be candidates for additional snaps.

Reagor (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Washington.

There was a belief at one point that Reagor would miss most of September after injuring his left shoulder at practice Aug. 30. Instead, he followed up a limited showing at Wednesday's session with back-to-back full listings to cap off Week 1 prep. Reagor thus will be out there Sunday next to DeSean Jackson, while Alshon Jeffery (foot) takes a seat.

Johnson (foot) practiced fully Friday.

A foot issue sidelined Johnson at Thursday's practice, but a full session Friday puts the 2019 third-rounder in line to suit up and start opposite JuJu Smith-Schuster on Monday night against the Giants. Johnson logged 59 catches (for 680 yards and five TDs) as a rookie, and in his second year as a pro, the 5-foot-10, 183-pounder figures to benefit from more consistent play at quarterback now that Ben Roethlisberger (who missed most of last season) is healthy.

Wims (Achilles) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against Detroit.

Wims has compiled two straight full practice sessions, but it appears as though he's still dealing with residual effects of his Achilles injury. If the third-year pro manages to suit up Week 1, he'll compete with Ted Ginn and Cordarrelle Patterson (knee) for snaps behind Allen Robinson and Anthony Miller.

Williams (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at Cincinnati.

Williams managed limited sessions this week while working his way through a sprained shoulder, which has hampered him since an Aug. 23 practice. Coach Anthony Lynn has referred to Williams as a likely "game-time decision," one with fantasy management implications due to the Chargers kicking off the season Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET. If Williams is inactive, his replacements at outside receiver will be Jalen Guyton and Joe Reed.

Parker (hamstring) practiced in full Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in New England, Josh Tolentino of The Athletic reports.

Parker was hindered down the stretch of training camp and limited during the first two sessions of Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. That said, he capped the week with a "full" tag and will be ready to handle a starting spot at outside receiver in the season opener. The same can be said for Preston Williams (knee), meaning quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will have an intact receiving corps at his disposal Sunday.

Coach Vic Fangio relayed that Sutton (shoulder) won't practice Friday, but he noted the wideout is expected to return to a limited session Saturday, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

As Monday night's season opener against the Titans approaches, Sutton is considered day-to-day with a sprained AC joint in his shoulder. If Denver's top wideout is out or limited at all Week 1, added targets would be available for rookie starter Jerry Jeudy as well as returnees Tim Patrick and DaeSean Hamilton.

Coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Moore (finger) won't suit up against the Browns on Sunday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Harbaugh said "we'll see" about Moore's chances of returning Week 2 in Houston. The depth wideout contributed mostly on special teams across 14 appearances in 2019, so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact on the Ravens' offense.

Johnson (foot) returned to practice Friday, according to fellow wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Johnson didn't practice Thursday, so his presence on the field Friday puts him on course to suit up Monday night against the Giants. Our confidence in that outcome will elevate if the wideout is officially listed as a full practice participant by the Steelers. Johnson is listed as a starter on the team's posted depth chart, opposite Smith-Schuster.

Johnson missed practice Thursday and Friday for non-injury reasons, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.

With no other details provided, it isn't clear if Johnson will be available for Sunday's game in San Francisco. It also isn't clear he'll have a significant role -- or even be active -- if he is available. The 2019 sixth-round pick was limited to a 21-187-1 receiving line on 42 targets last year.
