Berrios (undisclosed) caught one of four targets for 15 yards and lost a fumble in Friday's 23-6 preseason win over the Jets. He also had a 10-yard punt return.

Berrios returned to action after missing the Giants' previous preseason game due to what coach John Harbaugh termed a soft-tissue injury. The veteran WR struggled on offense, losing a fumble on the Jets' four-yard line at the end of his only catch and failing to come down with three other targets. If Berrios makes the 53-man roster, it will be due primarily to his capabilities as a return man on special teams rather than his contributions as a receiver.

Beckham caught three of six targets for 53 yards in Friday's 23-6 preseason win over the Jets.

Beckham led the Giants with six targets and finished one receiving yard behind Xavier Gipson's team-leading figure in Friday's preseason finale. It remains to be seen if Beckham has done enough to secure a roster spot with the team that drafted him in the first round back in 2014, though the math looks more favorable for the veteran WR after Calvin Austin's season-ending knee injury moved Beckham up a rung on the depth chart.

Johnson secured one of three targets for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 19-0 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Friday.

Johnson recorded his one catch on his initial target of the night, which came with 5:47 remaining in the first quarter on the Buccaneers' second possession. Friday's action was the first of the preseason for the 2025 seventh-round pick, who'd missed the first two exhibitions due to an Aug. 4 groin strain. Johnson outperformed his draft slotting as a rookie with a 28-322-5 line over 16 regular-season games a year ago, and he should have a good chance of reprising a depth receiver role to open the 2026 season.

Bell (knee) caught two of five targets for 22 yards in Friday's 17-12 preseason loss to the Falcons.

Bell got his first taste of NFL game action in Friday's preseason finale, as he has gained clearance to play after having the ACL in his left knee surgically repaired in December. The wide receiver out of Louisville is set to compete for playing time in an underwhelming Dolphins WR room that also includes rookie third-round pick Caleb Douglas, rookie fifth-round pick Kevin Coleman, 2024 sixth-round pick Malik Washington and offseason signing Jalen Tolbert.

Tolbert caught all three of his targets for 27 yards in Friday's 17-12 preseason loss to the Falcons.

Tolbert led the team in catches Friday as backup QBs Cam Miller and Mark Gronowski completed a combined 11 passes. The 27-year-old Tolbert is expected to be the top veteran contributor in Miami's young WR room, especially after the Dolphins traded Tutu Atwell to the Rams on Thursday. Third-year pro Malik Washington and rookies Caleb Douglas, Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman represent Tolbert's top competition for regular-season snaps.

Dotson caught all three of his targets for 27 yards in Friday's 17-12 preseason win over the Dolphins.

Dotson accounted for three of Tua Tagovailoa's seven completions while Atlanta's starters were in the game, with three going to TE Kyle Pitts and one going to RB Brian Robinson. Offensive stars Bijan Robinson and Drake London sat out the preseason finale, but Dotson's involvement Friday suggests the 2022 first-round pick of the Commanders is positioned as the Falcons' No. 2 wideout behind London heading into the regular season.

Smith-Marsette (ankle) will not return to Friday night's preseason finale against the Packers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Smith-Marsette exited during the third quarter of Friday's game with an ankle injury. The wide receiver and returner is attempting to make the Cardinals' 53-man roster as a special-teams threat. Smith-Marsette is on the roster bubble as it is, so any significant injury will likely significantly dampen his odds of making the team.

Camper is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Friday's preseason finale against the Giants.

Camper sustained a head injury in the second half of Friday's contest. The wide receiver will be evaluated by an independent neurologist. If Camper is deemed to have suffered a concussion, he will be placed into the league's five-step protocol. The 25-year-old will likely be waived come Sunday's cutdown day if he is not placed on season-ending injured reserve.

Doubs didn't suit up in Thursday's preseason loss to the Browns.

Doubs was among numerous Patriots projected regular-season starters who were held out of Thursday's contest. The veteran wideout didn't play at all during the exhibition slate but drew praise during training camp for his work during practices. Doubs is slated for a major role in his first campaign with New England, as he's set to start alongside A.J. Brown at the WR position.

Mims (foot) went to the locker room during the first quarter of Friday's preseason game against the Vikings and is questionable to return, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Mims appeared to sustain the injury while attempting a leaping reception early in the first quarter. He was able to walk off the field under his own power but was directed to the blue medical tent before going into the locker room. Mims will undergo further tests to determine the severity of his foot injury, but it wouldn't be surprising if the fourth-year wideout was held out for the rest of Friday's exhibition contest.
