Evans (illness) is active for Sunday's Week 1 tilt against the 49ers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Evans' status for Sunday's opener was never overly in doubt, but it's still naturally good to confirm he'll be available in his usual capacity for what could be a high-scoring affair.

Gage left Sunday's game against the Vikings and is being evaluated for a possible concussion, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Gage was on the wrong end of a hard hit to the head in the second quarter of the game. Expect the team to have more official news as the 2018 sixth-round pick goes through tests. Justin Hardy will move up the depth chart as the fourth receiver as long as Gage is sidelined.

Jennings (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

With David Moore expected to miss the first two games of the season, the decision to hold out Jennings is somewhat of a surprise. With all of Moore, Jennings and John Ursua (healthy scratch) sidelined, the Seahawks will roll with Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, Jaron Brown and Malik Turner at wide receiver Week 1.

Hill will not return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars after suffering a shoulder injury.

Prior to his exit, Hill logged two catches for 16 yards. In his absence, look for Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson to see added opportunities alongside Sammy Watkins.

Hill is listed as questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars due to a shoulder injury.

If Hill is forced to miss any time, added opportunities behind fellow starter Sammy Watkins would be available for Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson.

Berrios (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Berrios was limited throughout practice all week with a hamstring injury but appears healthy enough to take the field. The 23-year-old projects to play a depth role in New York's receiving corps.

Kupp (knee) is active as expected for Sunday's Week 1 tilt versus the Panthers.

Kupp will make his return to action after suffering a Week 10 ACL tear last season. The third-year wideout will look to pick up where he left off during his truncated sophomore campaign, when he compiled a 40-566-6 line across eight games before being sidelined.

Anderson (calf) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

The speedy wideout's Week 1 fantasy ceiling might not be quite as high as normal, considering he'll likely face coverage from standout cornerback Tre'Davious White. That said, assuming no setbacks with his calf, Anderson figures to see his share of snaps Sunday, as he and Quincy Enunwa are slated to start out wide for the Jets, while Jamison Crowder serves as the team's top slot option.

Brown (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Though he failed to practice in the Ravens' final session of the week Friday, Brown never appeared in much serious jeopardy of missing the Week 1 matchup. The dynamic rookie is expected to serve as one of Baltimore's starting receivers in the season opener, but Brown may not be in store for much week-to-week target volume with the Lamar Jackson-led attack expected to remain one of the NFL's more run-oriented offenses in 2019.

The Colts waived Hart (undisclosed) with an injury settlement Saturday, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

Hart was sidelined for much of training camp due to a hamstring injury, though it remains unknown what sort of issue he's currently dealing with. The undrafted rookie out of Georgia State will search for a role elsewhere in the league when healthy.
