  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Out again in Week 5

    Lamb (ankle) officially has been ruled out for Sunday's contest at the Jets, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Lamb has yet to practice since suffering a high left-ankle sprain Week 3 at Chicago, but he resumed rehab work on the field as of Wednesday, potentially signaling that he may be able to return to action as soon as a Week 6 matchup with the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 12. With KaVontae Turpin (foot) also out this weekend, the Cowboys will rely on WR George Pickens, TE Jake Ferguson and WR Jalen Tolbert to fuel the passing game.

  • Zay Jones WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Zay Jones: Out of concussion protocol

    Jones (concussion) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Titans, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Jones sat out Week 4 against the Seahawks due to a concussion, but after following up Wednesday's limited practice with back-to-back uncapped sessions, he's progressed enough to gain clearance from an independent neurologist. He'll slot back in as Arizona's No. 3 WR behind Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson on Sunday, but Jones has put together just a 3-29-0 line on four targets in three appearances this season.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Titans' Calvin Ridley: Questionable after limited practice

    Ridley (knee/elbow) was limited in his return to practice Friday.

    After logging back-to-back DNPs Wednesday and Thursday, Ridley was able to work in a limited capacity Friday before being deemed questionable for Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET contest against the Cardinals. Look for added context regarding the wideout's status to arrive late Saturday or early Sunday via national reporters like ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, but if Ridley is limited or out this weekend, WRs Tyler Lockett, Chimere Dike and Van Jefferson could see added Week 5 opportunities alongside Elic Ayomanor.

  • Bryce Oliver WR | TEN

    Titans' Bryce Oliver: Ruled out for Sunday

    Oliver (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.

    The 25-year-old is now in line to miss his third consecutive game due to a knee injury sustained in the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Rams. While Oliver remains sidelined Sunday, Julius Chestnut is likely to serve as one of the team's top kick returners.

  • Colts' Michael Pittman: Ready for Week 5

    Pittman (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders after returning to a full practice Friday.

    Pittman was added to the Colts' Week 5 injury report Thursday after being limited by a hamstring issue. However, the wideout worked fully a day later, which paves the way for him to remain a key receiving target for QB Daniel Jones this weekend. In a 27-20 loss to the Rams last Sunday, Pittman caught five passes on a team-high 10 targets for 41 yards and a touchdown, while recording a 93 percent snap share. With fellow WR Alec Pierce (concussion) out for the second straight contest, look for Pittman to remain busy this weekend.

  • Charlie Jones WR | CIN

    Bengals' Charlie Jones: Questionable for Sunday

    Jones (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions.

    Although Jones logged three consecutive DNPs during the Bengals' week of practice, he's got a chance to suit up Sunday. The Purdue product has tallied 238 total return yards over Cincinnati's first four games this season. If he's sidelined in Week 5, Jermaine Burton is likely to serve as the team's top return specialist.

  • Skyy Moore WR | SF

    49ers' Skyy Moore: One carry on offense Thursday

    Moore had one carry for one yard without being targeted in Thursday's 26-23 win over the Rams.

    Moore made his usual impact as a returner with 55 yards gained on three punt returns (and a shaky squib recovery on his only kick return). The 24-year-old split his 16 total snaps Thursday evenly between offense and special teams. Moore finished with zero targets after recording one in each of his previous two outings, but he did register his first carry as a member of the 49ers in the overtime win. As depleted as San Francisco's receiver room is at the moment, it doesn't appear that Moore's role will expand much past the return game Week 6 against Tampa Bay.

  • Rams' Jordan Whittington: Makes back-to-back catches

    Whittington secured two of three targets for 33 yards during Thursday's 26-23 overtime loss to the 49ers.

    The second-year wideout chained together catches of 22 and 11 yards in the second quarter, which led to a Kyren Williams 14-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford. Whittington would see one final target head his way at the start of the second half before taking a back seat to Tutu Atwell, who made two huge catches of 34 and 38 yards in the third quarter and overtime, respectively. Atwell also easily outpaced Whittington in snap count (45-27). Atwell's game-breaking speed has been on display the last two weeks, and that additional element may have been a factor in his uptick in touches. Whittington will remain difficult to trust from a fantasy perspective, although a porous Baltimore defense that has given up the most points in the league is up next Week 6.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Titans' Calvin Ridley: Questionable for Week 5

    Ridley (knee/elbow) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Arizona, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.

    Ridley's workload was scaled back to 54 percent Week 4 against the Texans, and his absences from practice Wednesday and Thursday were attributed to knee and elbow issues. According to Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, Ridley was present at Friday's session, but his status for Week 5 action now won't be known until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Alec Pierce WR | IND

    Colts' Alec Pierce: Won't play Sunday

    Pierce (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.

    Though Pierce practiced fully Wednesday and Thursday, coach Shane Steichen noted Friday that the wideout had a setback, per James Boyd of The Athletic. Pierce remains in the concussion protocol and is set to miss his second straight game, so look for Michael Pittman (hamstring) and Josh Downs to lead the Colts' Week 5 WR corps, with Adonai Mitchell, Ashton Dulin and Anthony Gould representing the team's other healthy options at the position.
