  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Eagles' Nelson Agholor: Targeted just once in win

    Agholor drew just one target but was unable to catch it in Thursday's 34-27 win over the Packers.

    Agholor got another start with DeSean Jackson (abdomen) still sidelined, but with Alshon Jeffery healthy, he did not see anywhere near the same opportunity as his two-touchdown performance from Week 3. On the bright side for the 26-year-old, he did see the highest number of snaps among Eagles receivers with 56. If Jackson is still unable to go in Week 5, Agholor should rebound in a much more appealing matchup against the Jets.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Promoted to active roster

    Dulin was promoted to the Colts' active roster Friday, the Indy Star reports.

    With T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) considered doubtful, the Colts called up Dulin from their practice squad for more depth at wide receiver. The undrafted free agent is unlikely to see much of a role in the passing game, but he'll be available should more injuries occur ahead of him on the depth chart.

  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Week 5 return up in air

    Gallup (knee) isn't guaranteed to return for the Cowboys' Week 5 matchup with the Packers, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Gallup came out of Week 2 with a knee injury that required arthroscopic surgery to trim his left meniscus. The accompanying recovery timetable was 2-to-4 weeks, so it's no surprise he missed a Week 3 win against the Dolphins, was ruled out in advance of Sunday's visit to New Orleans and is looking iffy for Week 5. He even admitted as much Friday, telling Gehlken that he's "progressing," but "not fast enough." While Gallup continues his rehab, Devin Smith is expected to operate on the outside with Amari Cooper, with Randall Cobb manning the slot.

  • Chris Conley WR | SF

    Jaguars' Chris Conley: Good to go Sunday

    Conley (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    After practicing in a limited fashion both Wednesday and Thursday, Conley practiced fully Friday, gaining clearance to play this weekend in the process. Three games into the 2019 season, Conley has developed a solid rapport with QB Gardner Minshew, having logged 12 catches (on 15 targets) for 200 yards and a TD in that span.

  • Zach Pascal WR | NYG

    Colts' Zach Pascal: Could top depth chart Sunday

    Pascal could be the top wide receiver on the depth chart Sunday with T.Y. Hilton (quad) listed as doubtful on the official injury report for Sunday's game against Oakland.

    Pascal has started the last two games after Devin Funchess (collarbone) went on injured reserve, but that hasn't translated to many targets as he has just two receptions (one for a touchdown). It may be Deon Cain and Parris Campbell who become the primary receivers Sunday even if Pascal starts again, though the Colts have spread the ball around evenly after Hilton.

  • Colts' Parris Campbell: Could be set for larger role

    Campbell and Deon Cain could be in for larger roles with T.Y. Hilton (quad) listed as doubtful on the official injury report for Sunday's game against Oakland, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Campbell could emerge as the most targeted receiver Sunday as his role in the offense has grown each week (32 snaps on offense in Week 3 after 18 snaps each of the first two weeks). Still, the pecking order for targets if Hilton is out isn't clear as the other receivers nearly equally split snap counts last week. The Colts may also use more two-TE sets.

  • Deon Cain WR | BUF

    Colts' Deon Cain: Could be set for larger role

    Cain and Parris Campbell could be in for larger roles with T.Y. Hilton (quad) listed as doubtful on the official injury report for Sunday's game against Oakland, Kevin Bowen of 1070 am Indianapolis reports.

    The pecking order for targets if Hilton is out isn't clear as the four healthy Indy receivers almost equally split snap counts last week. Cain had 37 snaps on offense, while Zach Pascal had 30 snaps, Paris Campbell had 30 snaps, and Chester Rogers had 27 snaps. The Colts may also use more two-TE sets. Cain had a strong preseason, but has just three receptions this season. Still, he could be thrust into a prominent role Sunday.

  • Bills' Isaiah McKenzie: Back to full practice

    McKenzie (ankle) practiced fully Friday after missing Thursday's session and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Given the full practice in the most recent session, we'd lean toward McKenzie being able to play this week. He's a bit player in the Buffalo offense, but he gives the team a gadget option whenever he's out on the field. Assuming he plays, he'll at least give the Patriots something extra to think about.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Packers' Davante Adams: Gets good news from MRI

    Following an MRI on Friday, the Packers are optimistic Adams (toe) avoided a serious injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The wideout referred to his injury as "turf toe" after he was removed from Thursday's 34-27 loss to the Eagles. It sounds like he'll have a shot to avoid any additional missed time, with the Packers enjoying a long break before a Week 5 matchup in Dallas next Sunday. Adams' practice participation leading up to the game will be closely monitored.

  • Cardinals' Andy Isabella: Moving up depth chart

    Isabella will be the No. 5 wide receiver Sunday against the Seahawks with Damiere Byrd (hamstring) out of commission, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Byrd has served as one of the Cardinals' three starting wide receivers this season, so his absence opens the door for KeeSean Johnson, Trent Sherfield and Isabella to earn more work. Johnson has had a consistent role in four-wide sets this season, while Sherfield mostly has been contained to special teams but also happens to be Byrd's direct backup on the depth chart. Finally, Isabella received the first offensive snap of his career this past Sunday. Considering the breakdown of roles so far, Johnson and Sherfield seem the best bets to profit in Byrd's absence, with Isabella in reserve in the event of another injury.
