  • Chris Moore WR | WAS

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Reverts to practice squad

    Moore reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday.

    Moore played 19 snaps on offense and eight on special teams and ended up hauling in his only target for 34 yards during Sunday's win over the Giants. He could be elevated again for the team's Week 2 matchup versus the Packers, considering he outplayed Luke McCaffrey on Sunday.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LV

    Alex Bachman: Back with practice squad

    Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Bachman was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 20-13 win over the Patriots, failing to reel in his only target while playing two offensive snaps. Additionally, the wide receiver had a tackle on kick coverage while logging 15 snaps on special teams. Bachman is eligible to be elevated two more times this season before Las Vegas would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

  • David Sills WR | ATL

    David Sills: Reverts to practice squad

    Sills reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Sills was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers, failing to record any stats while playing two offensive snaps. With Darnell Mooney (shoulder) banged up and both Drake London (shoulder) and Jamal Agnew (groin) suffering injuries in the opener, it's possible that Sills is elevated again in Week 2 versus the Vikings.

  • Rams' Konata Mumpfield: Held without a catch

    Mumpfield recorded six snaps on offense and two snaps on special teams during Sunday's 14-9 win against the Texans.

    Eight different players saw targets from Matthew Stafford on Sunday, but only Mumpfield and Jordan Whittington (who did have a five-yard rush) failed to record a target out of the Rams' group of wideouts. Given Mumpfield's rookie status, this isn't a real surprise, but fantasy managers hoping to see what the seventh-rounder can do in regular season action may be waiting for a while given the commanding snap share of Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell through one game.

  • Xavier Smith WR | LAR

    Rams' Xavier Smith: One long catch in limited duty

    Smith caught his only target for 36 yards and returned two punts for 21 yards during Sunday's 14-9 victory against the Texans.

    Despite Smith's role appearing to remain the exact same from last year to present, he managed to make the most of his pair of snaps on offense. Smith caught a deep ball from Matthew Stafford in the third quarter for 36 yards, a key play on the Rams' second and final touchdown drive of the day. Despite the impressive catch, Smith's value for the Rams will likely remain on special teams for the duration of the season, with the Titans next up on the docket Week 2.

  • 49ers' Jauan Jennings: Getting shoulder checked out

    The 49ers are awaiting the results of imaging done on Jennings' shoulder injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Coach Kyle Shanahan noted Monday that Jennings' initial test looked okay, but there are still more results to come. The wideout's status thus is worth monitoring in the days ahead, but at this stage Shanahan believes that Jennings has a chance to play Sunday against the Saints, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) still on the reserve/PUP list, Jennings now banged-up and Jordan Watkins dealing with an ankle injury, Ricky Pearsall currently is the 49ers' top healthy WR, a context that could lead to some combo of Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Russell Gage, Kendrick Bourne and Skyy Moore seeing added opportunities Week 2.

  • Lance McCutcheon: Exits Pittsburgh

    The Steelers released McCutcheon from their practice squad Monday.

    McCutcheon spent the offseason and training camp with the Steelers and caught five passes for 66 yards and one touchdown during the preseason. Pittsburgh opted to swap out McCutcheon for fellow WR Rakim Jarrett on the practice squad Monday.

  • Rakim Jarrett WR | PIT

    Rakim Jarrett: Lands with Pittsburgh

    Jarrett signed with the Steelers' practice squad Monday.

    Jarrett failed to make the Bucs' 53-man roster this summer. The 24-year-old wide receiver has appeared in 20 career regular-season contests with Tampa Bay, recording 13 catches for 184 scoreless yards on 20 targets.

  • Noah Brown WR | WAS

    Commanders' Noah Brown: Limited on practice estimate

    Brown (knee) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate.

    Brown also was listed on the Commanders' Week 1 injury report while managing a knee issue, but he approached the team's season-opening win over the Giants without an injury designation and caught two of his three targets for 27 yards while logging a 47 percent snap share in the contest. Assuming no setbacks, it looks like the wideout's listed limitations Monday could be maintenance-related, with added context regarding Brown's status for Thursday night's game against the Packers set to arrive no later than Tuesday's practice report.

  • Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG

    Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Invisible in opener

    Hyatt did not log any snaps Sunday in a Week 1 loss to the Commanders.

    There was no chance to see what kind of chemistry Hyatt could have with new Giants QB Russell Wilson, as the third-year wideout didn't even get on the field. As expected, Malik Nabers dominated passing targets with 12, while Wan'Dale Robinson got eight and Darius Slayton logged just one. Meanwhile, the only other New York wideout to even get any snaps on offense was Beaux Collins, who was on the field for two plays. Hyatt's fantasy viability was already extremely shaky given that he's No. 4 on New York's wideout depth chart, and Sunday's lack of action further underscores that he's unlikely to make much of an impact this year barring at least one injury ahead of him in the pecking order.
