Reed announced Tuesday via social media that he underwent successful surgeries to repair a fractured collarbone and a Jones fracture in his left foot.

Surgery was expected after the wideout fractured his collarbone in last Thursday's win over the Commanders, but Reed has also elected to simultaneously get a procedure for his foot fracture, which popped up during training camp. The multiple surgeries aren't expected to alter the timeline for his return, which is estimated at 6-to-8 weeks. Even with Reed out of the picture for the next several games, the Packers still have plenty of depth at receiver on hand in Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Savion Williams and Malik Heath.

Head coach DeMeco Ryans said Tuesday that he expects Berrios (hamstring) to be available for the Texans' Week 3 AFC South clash against the Jaguars on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Berrios missed the first two games of the regular season due to a hamstring injury, but he is trending toward making his 2025 regular-season debut Sunday. The 2018 sixth-rounder signed a one-year contract with the Texans in March after spending the last two seasons with the Dolphins. When he does take the field, Berrios projects to serve in a rotational role on kickoff and punt returns, and as a depth piece at wide receiver.

The Bengals signed Pryor to the practice squad Tuesday.

Pryor was cut by the Bengals at the end of training camp in late August but will get another shot with the team on the practice squad. He appeared in two regular-season games for Cincinnati in 2024, playing 24 snaps (19 on offense, five on special teams) and logging one catch for nine yards and 43 kick return yards. Pryor is a candidate to be elevated to the active roster if there is an injury to the Bengals' wide-receiver corps or return unit.

Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Tuesday that he anticipates Kirk (hamstring) making his team debut Sunday in Jacksonville, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

Acquired from the Jaguars in March, Kirk missed the Texans' first two games of the season while he recovered from a hamstring injury, which has kept him from practicing since the end of the preseason. The veteran wideout's condition appears to have improved during his time off, but Kirk will still likely need to upgrade to full participation in practice by Friday in order to receive clearance to play against one of his former teams. The potential return of Kirk to the lineup Sunday could help bolster a Texans passing attack that ranks 28th in the NFL with an average of 166.5 yards per game through the first two weeks.

Harris caught two of his three targets for 34 yards in the 20-9 win over the Raiders on Monday.

He played just 18 offensive snaps, lagging behind Quentin Johnston (44), Ladd McConkey (43) and Keenan Allen (32), but Harris out-snapped fellow rookie KeAndre Lambert-Smith (six snaps), a reversal from Week 1. The Chargers don't pass enough to sustain four different fantasy-relevant wide receivers, but Harris could still develop into a crucial offensive piece as the season progresses.

Bryant caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 29-28 loss to the Colts.

Bryant played 14 of the Broncos' 58 offensive snaps Sunday, the fewest of any Broncos wide receiver in the contest. It appears the Broncos coaching staff is committed to easing the rookie wideout into the team's offensive plans, especially with teammate Troy Franklin taking a step forward in his second year. Franklin led them team in targets (nine) against the Colts and has assumed the No. 2 receiver role behind Courtland Sutton. Barring injuries, the 22-year-old Bryant should not be trusted for fantasy purposes for the foreseeable future. The Illinois product will have his next opportunity to push for more playing time when the Broncos visit the Chargers in Week 3.

Mims reeled in both of his targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-28 loss to the Colts.

Mims scored his first touchdown on the season despite seeing a significant dip in his playing time in Week 2. After playing 51 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps in Week 1, the 23-year-old was on the field for just 36 percent of snaps against the Colts. Meanwhile, teammate Troy Franklin saw an uptick in playing time and led all Denver pass catchers with nine targets. If this type of usage continues, Mims will be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the third option among wide receivers behind both Franklin and Courtland Sutton. Nonetheless, the third-year wideout will look to build off this performance in Week 3 when the Broncos visit the Chargers.

Remigio reeled in his only target for 21 yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss against the Eagles.

Remigio saw the field for all of two offensive snaps, so his one target isn't really something to get excited about. The rookie figures to drop further down the pecking order when Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Jalen Royals (knee) are cleared, and when Rashee Rice is clear of his six-game suspension. Remigio ranked fifth among wideouts in snaps Sunday despite the trio of absences.

Smith-Schuster recorded one reception (on three targets) for five yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Eagles.

Smith-Schuster saw regular run on offense Sunday with Xavier Worthy (shoulder) out and Rashee Rice suspended, but he was unable to capitalize on the increase in opportunity. With Worthy potentially returning to action this Sunday against the Giants, Smith-Schuster is a candidate to see a reduction in snaps.

Walker caught both of his targets for 26 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Browns.

The second-year wideout has three career receptions, all of which have gone for touchdowns. That's efficiency. Walker played 13 snaps Sunday after not getting on the field on offense in the opener, with his first TD coming early in the third quarter when Lamar Jackson found him in the back of the end zone on fourth down. His second came early in the fourth quarter to put the Ravens up 27-20. Baltimore has a crowded receiver room, and it seems as though Walker, Tylan Wallace and DeAndre Hopkins are all battling for the No. 3 job. Walker is likely third in the pecking order among that group at the moment, but if he keeps capitalizing on his opportunities, more playing time could be in store.
