Jaylen Waddle WR | MIA
Dolphins' Jaylen Waddle: Not practicing
Waddle (ribs) isn't practicing Wednesday, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports.
Waddle injured his ribs during the second quarter of Sunday's win over Tampa Bay. He returned late in the third quarter but ultimately played just 26 percent of Miami's snaps on offense. With 910 receiving yards on the season, Waddle has some extra motivation to suit up for Week 18 against New England if his availability comes down to a matter of pain tolerance.

David Moore WR | CAR
Panthers' David Moore: Full participant at walkthrough
Moore (elbow) was a full participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
The veteran wideout has practiced in full since being designated to return from the injured reserve list on Dec. 17, so he could suit up for the Panthers' Week 18 matchup against the Buccaneers, a game that could decide the NFC South champion. However, he must still be added to Carolina's active roster in order to suit up Sunday. If active in Week 18, expect Moore to play a depth role in the Panthers' receiving corps.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | GB
Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: No practice Wednesday
Wicks (concussion) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Wicks was forced out of Saturday's loss to the Ravens in the second quarter and didn't return after undergoing a concussion evaluation. With no on-field work to speak of to kick off Week 18 prep, he appears to be on the outside looking in to suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale at Minnesota. Ultimately, the Packers may make a ruling on Wicks' availability by the time they post their final injury report of the week Friday.

Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG
Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Misses Wednesday's practice
Hyatt was absent from Wednesday's practice due to an illness, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
The third-year pro from Tennessee appears to be dealing with an illness and likely needs to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to play in the Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys on Sunday. Hyatt has appeared in just eight games this season, catching five of 14 targets for 35 yards while also tallying 111 kick-return yards. If active Sunday, Hyatt will likely play a depth role in the Giants' wide-receiver room.

Xavier Worthy WR | KC
Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Under the weather
Worthy (illness) won't practice Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Worthy now has two more chances to practice in advance of Sunday's season finale against the Raiders. Assuming the wideout is available this weekend, he'll be in line to catch passes from QB Chris Oladokun, who threw for just 66 yards in the Chiefs' Week 17 loss to the Broncos.

Beaux Collins WR | NYG
Giants' Beaux Collins: Logs DNP on Wednesday
Collins (neck/concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Collins' DNP on Wednesday suggests he won't be activated from the injured reserve list by the end of his 21-day practice window, meaning he's ineligible to return for Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys. The Notre Dame product has appeared in nine games this season, catching two of six targets for 25 yards.

Wan'Dale Robinson WR | NYG
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Misses practice Wednesday
Robinson (ribs) is not participating in the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Robinson tallied his third consecutive 100-yard performance during New York's win over the Raiders in Week 17 by securing 11 of 14 targets for 113 yards, but the undersized wideout appears to have sustained a rib injury in the process. He'll have two more chances to get back on the practice field in advance of the Giants' regular-season finale against Dallas on Sunday. A combination of Isaiah Hodgins, Gunner Olszewski, Dalen Cambre, Ryan Miller and Jalin Hyatt (illness) will step up on offense behind Darius Slayton in the event that Robinson isn't cleared to play Week 18.

Marvin Harrison Jr. WR | ARI
Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Ruled out for Week 18
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Harrison (foot) will not suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale on the road against the Rams, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Harrison will miss Arizona's final game of the 2025 campaign due to a foot injury suffered versus Cincinnati in Week 17, a contest in which he played just 33 percent of offensive snaps and failed to secure his only target. That wraps a disappointing second professional season for the 2024 first-round pick, who concludes the year with a 41-608-4 receiving line on 73 targets across 12 regular-season appearances. Prior to his current foot issue, a heel injury limited Harrison to just three appearances after Week 10, across which he combined for just seven catches for 83 yards. Harrison fading down the stretch has paved the way for WR Michael Wilson to emerge as a legitimate playmaker alongside TE Trey McBride, both of whom will will remain the clear top targets for QB Jacoby Brissett in the Cardinals' regular-season finale against a Los Angeles squad that may have nothing to play for in terms of playoff seeding should the 49ers defeat the Seahawks on Saturday night.

Cooper Kupp WR | SEA
Seahawks' Cooper Kupp: Held to one catch in Week 17
Kupp recorded a six-yard reception on three targets in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Panthers.
Kupp continued to start for Seattle and played 58 of the team's 66 snaps on offense (88 percent), but he was once again an afterthought in a low-volume Seahawks passing offense. Top wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba remained the focal point of the offensive attack, commanding targets on 12 of quarterback Sam Darnold's 27 throws. Meanwhile, no other pass catcher drew more than three targets. The 32-year-old has generally enjoyed a healthy first season in Seattle while suiting up in 15 of the Seahawks' first 16 games, but he's scored just two touchdowns and has topped 50 receiving yards on just three occasions.

Skyy Moore WR | SF
49ers' Skyy Moore: Notches first down on rush
Moore carried once for 10 yards and brought back two punts for 11 yards and four kickoffs for 92 yards in Sunday's 42-38 win over the Bears.
Moore played just four of the 49ers' 72 snaps on offense in the win, but he made his mark during his time on the field. His 10-yard carry early in the second quarter was good for a first down, extending a drive that culminated in Brock Purdy's three-yard rushing touchdown. Moore also made a splash on special teams, with his 92 kickoff return yards marking his fourth-best total of the season. He'll continue to serve as the 49ers' top return man in Saturday's regular-season finale versus the Seahawks.
