The Dolphins have spoken to multiple teams about trading for Parker (quadriceps), Barry Jackson and Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports. Parker is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Parker will be in street clothes for the fifth time in seven games this season, with the Dolphins apparently not convinced that the wideout is completely healthy despite his full participation in practice throughout the week. Though Parker has seemingly plummeted on the depth chart and is owed $9.39 million in 2019, the report notes that the Dolphins aren't actively shopping him, with Tom Pelissero of NFL.com relaying that Miami has informed interested parties that they'll need to fork over a third-round pick in any deal. It's unclear if any team would be willing to meet that high of an asking price, but Parker's name is nonetheless one to watch as the Oct. 30 trade deadline approaches. Shortly after Parker was made inactive Sunday, Salguero reported that the Eagles are one of the multiple teams who have reached out about the 25-year-old.

Perriman is listed as active Sunday against Tampa Bay.

Coach Hue Jackson hinted at a more active role in the offense for Perriman this week, and an active status is the first step in that idea coming to fruition. It will be the Cleveland debut for Perriman, who was dealt to the Browns prior to their Week 6 matchup. While the role itself remains a bit uncertain, it's an exceptional matchup for Perriman against a Tampa Bay defense that has surrendered 355.8 passing yards per game -- by far the worst mark in the league. Even with a favorable matchup, Perriman will likely remain behind fellow wideouts Jarvis Landry and Antonio Callaway on the wide receiver depth chart, with tight end David Njoku and running back Duke Johnson also in the mix for targets in the passing game.

Parker (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's Week 7 tilt against the Lions.

Given that he practiced in full all week, Parker's inactive status may be more than a reflection of his health at this point. However, he remains listed with a quadriceps injury, so that will officially serve as the cause of yet another absence unless further information is eventually divulged. Parker has technically been active for two games this season, but he only played four snaps in the second one, a Week 6 overtime win over the Bears. Kenny Stills, Albert Wilson and Danny Amendola will continue to serve as the Dolphins' top three wideout options Week 7 for Brock Osweiler.

Robinson (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Robinson didn't practice fully any day this week while nursing the injury, but the Bears deemed him fit to play after he completed his pregame workout Sunday. Though he should stick in the starting lineup for Chicago, it's possible the wideout's snaps are managed more carefully than usual while he tends to the groin issue. If that's the case, more work could be in store for the likes of Taylor Gabriel, Anthony Miller and Trey Burton.

Pryor, who was released by the Jets on Saturday, is expected to be sidelined for about two weeks with a minor groin tear, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Given the short-term nature of Pryor's setback, the Jets declined to move him to injured reserve, which would have necessitated an absence of at least eight weeks. By cutting him loose, the Jets temporarily freed up a roster spot for a healthy wideout (Deontay Burnett) while keeping the door open for Pryor to re-sign with the team once he's back to full strength. Now that Pryor is a free agent, however, the Jets would face competition from other teams that would presumably be interested in Pryor's services. Through the Jets' first six games, Pryor nabbed 14 receptions for 235 yards and two touchdowns.

Robinson (groin) is viewed as a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Apparently there's optimism he'll play, but the team wants to see how Robinson warms up prior to the game before signing off on his availability. Taylor Gabriel, Anthony Miller and Trey Burton could see more targets should Robinson not be able to go.

McCloud (undisclosed) did not travel with the team and won't play Sunday against the Colts, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

McCloud didn't make the trip for an undisclosed non-injury reason. Specifics of the issue remain unclear as the 22-year-old will perhaps be ready for a return in Week 8 against New England. It's at least worth noting the Bills pulled the rookie from return duties last week after he bumbled two returns, which ended up putting the team in a hole against the Texans.

Davis (concussion) has officially been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Falcons.

Although Davis has an extra day of rest before before Monday's kickoff, he has been unable to clear the league's concussion protocol. With Russell Shepard questionable (neck) the Giants could have just three healthy wide receivers in Odell Beckham, Sterling Shepard and Bennie Fowler. Davis will now set his sights on a Week 8 return.

Pryor (groin) was released by the Jets on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Pryor is expected to be out at least two weeks due to a tear in his groin. The Jets have expressed interest in bringing him back once his health is up to par. The move is somewhat surprising, as the 29-year-old is coming off his best game since coming to New York, and has scored a touchdown in consecutive weeks. Quincy Enunwa (ankle) is also out for Week 7, leaving the team with four healthy receivers on the roster. Look for New York to make some sort of roster move to add depth, while Robby Anderson and Jermaine Kearse figure to see their roles increased.

Ridley (ankle) has been cleared for Monday's matchup with the Giants, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

Ridley and Mohamed Sanu (hip) will both be available come Monday night, so Matt Ryan will have his full arsenal available. The rookie pass catcher was limited at Friday's practice, but it looks like the Falcons were just exercising caution with his participation. Barring any setbacks, look for him to resume his usual role on the offense.
