Renfrow is expected to start Monday's contest against the Broncos after Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Saturday the Raiders released wide receiver Antonio Brown.

Renfrow will likely start as the slot receiver, with a combination of J.J. Nelson (ankle), Dwayne Harris and Ryan Grant contributing as the outside receiver opposite Tyrell Williams. Renfrow, a Clemson product, faces a difficult task against the Broncos defense to begin his career, but his increased role could make him a legitimate fantasy asset in deep formats.

Renfrow could see a boost in snaps if Antonio Brown, who has reportedly asked for his release, does not play in Monday's contest against the Broncos.

The Brown saga seems to change by the hour, but if the most up-to-date news proves to be true, Renfrow would likely be considered the No. 2 receiver behind Tyrell Williams, with J.J. Nelson (ankle) and Ryan Grant sliding up on the depth chart. Against what is expected to be a fearsome Broncos defense, Renfrow likely shouldn't be counted on to a be a fantasy asset in Week 1, but the rookie receiver would see a significant rise in his stock thanks to being located in a predominantly heavy passing attack.

Brent (undisclosed) cleared waivers and reverted to Tampa Bay's injured reserve Sunday, per the NFL's official transaction report.

It's unclear what type of injury Brent is dealing with, but it's clearly serious enough to land him on injured reserve. The 26-year-old hasn't seen regular-season action since 2017, when he appeared in five games for Indianapolis but was unable to record any statistics.

Wesley (undisclosed) has reverted to the Giants' injured reserve per the NFL's official transaction log.

Wesley went unclaimed on the wire after getting waived with an injury designation. He is now in line for a season on the sidelines unless he and the Giants can come to terms on an injury settlement.

Williams (undisclosed) was released from San Francisco's injured reserve with an injury settlement Friday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Williams' injury is unclear in nature, but it's seemingly serious enough to have landed him on injured reserve Saturday. The 28-year-old was competing for a depth role in the Niners' receiving corps, but now he'll have to focus on getting healthy and finding a new opportunity elsewhere.

Berrios (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against Buffalo.

Berrios was limited in all three practices this week. The 23-year-old was scooped up by the Jets after being waived by New England on cutdown day Saturday. When healthy, Berrios is expected to provide depth to the Jets' receiving corps. For now, however, New York finds itself with just three healthy receivers behind Robby Anderson (calf).

Moore (shoulder) won't return for Week 2 against the Steelers, but he should have a decent shot to play thereafter, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

With Moore now out for the first two games, Jaron Brown and DK Metcalf don't seem to have much competition for snaps in three-wide sets. Moore hasn't been able to practice since he suffered a non-displaced fracture in his upper arm during a practice in the third week of the preseason.

Despite his 'questionable' designation, Brown (foot) doesn't appear in danger of missing Sunday's game in Miami, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official website reports. "[Brown] will play in the game," coach John Harbaugh said Friday.

Added to the injury report Thursday as a full participant, Brown then was held out of Friday's practice. It may just be a matter of maintenance, with the rookie first-round pick coming off Lisfranc surgery in January. The extent of his role is a question mark, but it sounds like he'll at least be active Sunday against the Dolphins.

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

Anderson practiced in a limited fashion all week, which bodes well for his chances of suiting up, especially since Rich Cimini of ESPN.com relayed Thursday that coach Adam Gase expects the wideout to play Week 1. That said, since Anderson is just one of three players on the Jets' injury report this week -- all listed as questionable -- his status is still worth confirming in advance of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Evans (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers after missing practice Friday.

Coach Bruce Arians expects Evans to regain his health by Sunday, but the story nonetheless merits tracking prior to the Bucs' 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. The weather forecast doesn't look great if he's still a bit under the weather, with the high Sunday in Tampa Bay estimated at 87 degrees Fahrenheit.
