  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Dolphins' DeVante Parker: 'Could have played' Sunday

    Coach Adam Gase said Parker (finger) "could have played" Sunday against the Jets, Hal Habib of the Palm Beach Post reports.

    After following an LP/FP/FP practice regimen last week, Parker was termed questionable for Sunday's game and eventually listed among the Dolphins' inactives. Gase's comments seem to indicate Parker was a near healthy scratch, but his right middle finger figures to be that much stronger after taking no hits Week 2. Look for Parker to mix in with Kenny Stills, Danny Amendola and Albert Wilson if he's given the all-clear for Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

  • Torrey Smith WR | CAR

    Panthers' Torrey Smith: Finds end zone

    Smith caught three of seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Smith found room in the red zone to haul in a three-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. He also went for a 26-yard gain on the day, and only Christian McCaffrey and Devin Funchess were targeted more. The available looks in the wake of Greg Olsen's (foot) absence could benefit Smith, but with Jarius Wright, D.J. Moore and Ian Thomas also vying for opportunities, Smith is one of a few complementary pieces in the team's passing attack.

  • Jehu Chesson WR | NYJ

    Jehu Chesson: Waived by Redskins

    Chesson was waived by the Redskins on Monday.

    Chesson was promoted to Washington's active roster prior to Week 2 but did not record a statistic. He will go through the waiver process and become a free agent if unclaimed.

  • Vikings' Aldrick Robinson: Signs with Vikings

    Robinson signed with the Vikings on Monday.

    Robinson played in all 16 games for the 49ers in 2017, catching 19 passes for 260 yards and two touchdowns. He may have a path to playing time immediately with Minnesota's wide receiver corps struggling behind starters Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen. Third-string receiver Laquon Treadwell had a few key drops in Week 2's matchup against the Packers, and Robinson has a previous rapport with quarterback Kirk Cousins, with the two having spent 2012 and 2013 together in Washington.

  • Redskins' Michael Floyd: Inks deal with Washington

    The Redskins signed Floyd to a contract Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    After posting 209 catches for 3,293 yards and 19 touchdowns while missing just one game the first four years of his career, Floyd has fallen off the NFL map the past two campaigns, with a 47-566-5 line in 26 games during that span. The Redskins provide a spot for Floyd to make an impact, but he'll have to battle his way up the depth chart to do so.

  • Zach Pascal WR | NYG

    Colts' Zach Pascal: Takes over kick return duties

    Pascal played 18 snaps on offense in Sunday's win at Washington, but wasn't targeted in the passing game. He had one kickoff return for 19 yards.

    Pascal has taken over as Indy's kickoff returner and he's working as the No. 4 receiver. However, he may not get many balls thrown his way on offense.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Eagles' Nelson Agholor: Heavy workload to continue

    Agholor will remain the Eagles' No. 1 wide receiver for the foreseeable future with Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) week-to-week and Mike Wallace out for the next few weeks due to a fractured fibula.

    Jeffery's recovery from surgery to repair a torn right rotator cuff has extended into the season, but Wallace's situation only came to light Sunday, when he limped off the field in the first quarter. Even if Jeffery gains his long-awaited clearance to play Sunday versus the Colts, Agholor is poised to lead a wide receiver corps that currently includes DeAndre Carter, Shelton Gibson and Kamar Aiken. Agholor has opened the season playing 140 of the Eagles' 151 offensive snaps, which he's turned into 16 catches for 121 yards and one touchdown on 22 targets.

  • Redskins' Breshad Perriman: Signing with Washington

    Perriman is signing a contract with the Redskins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Perriman appears to be a consolation prize for the Redskins, who were reportedly in the mix to acquire Josh Gordon from the Browns earlier Monday. In any case, the 2015 first-rounder will now try to resuscitate his career with a Washington team that currently has a solid receiving corps headlined by Jordan Reed, Jamison Crowder and Paul Richardson. It's not clear what sort of role Perriman will have out of the gates.

  • Robert Foster WR | NYG

    Bills' Robert Foster: Involved in offense

    Foster caught his first two NFL passes on three targets for 30 yards during Sunday's loss to the Chargers.

    Foster, an undrafted rookie free agent from Alabama, was a roster-bubble decision that the team decided to keep. He's continued to work his way up -- after Jeremy Kerley got cut Saturday, Foster was one of only four wideouts the Bills suited up Sunday, and he saw action on 47 percent of the offensive plays. While that's still modest usage, it's mildly impressive he's already the No. 4 guy on the team, and all it may take is another injury or two before Foster starts getting meaningful volume, albeit in a weak offense.

  • Kenny Britt WR | NE

    Kenny Britt: Books workout with New England

    Britt (hamstring) scheduled a workout with the Patriots on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The Patriots released Britt on Aug. 22 with an injury designation, but the team's decision to welcome him back for a workout suggests he's now reasonably healthy. With the team seemingly not fully comfortable with its existing depth wideouts, Britt might be viewed as an upgrade over No. 5 receiver Corey Coleman, who signed with the team last week. However, any hope for a reunion between Britt and the Patriots may have been extinguished after Rapoport reported Monday that the team is nearing a deal with the Browns to acquire Josh Gordon.
