Tyson (hamstring), per GM Mickey Loomis, is "getting closer" but will not practice this week, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Tyson made the trip to Paris with his teammates for Sunday's matchup with the Steelers, but he is not ready to resume working just yet. It's unclear exactly where he stands in the recovery process, but the Saints are on bye in Week 8, so he will be afforded more time to get closer to 100 percent without missing another game. At the same time, fantasy players will not be able to deploy him in lineups until Week 9 at the earliest.

Raymond caught both of his targets for 18 yards and returned three punts for 54 yards during Chicago's win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Raymond has continued to see limited action offensively since hauling in six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown during the Week 3 win over the Eagles. The 32-year-old has caught 26 passes for 244 yards and one touchdown across six games this season while serving as the team's third-string receiver behind Rome Odunze and Luther Burden.

Treadwell caught two of five targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Titans.

Treadwell finished fourth on the team in targets while reeling in multiple passes for the third game in a row. The wide receiver played a season-high 93 percent of the team's offensive snaps in the loss, and he has now caught 13 of 24 targets for 178 yards over six contests this year.

Royals caught two of his four targets for 24 yards during Kansas City's win over the Chargers on Sunday.

Royals saw increased playing time with Rashee Rice out due to a hamstring injury and ended up amassing a season-high 24 receiving yards. The 2025 fourth-round pick has now caught five passes for 41 yards and a touchdown across five games this season and could once again serve as the team's No. 2 receiver should Rice remain sidelined for the Week 7 matchup against the Seahawks.

Lambert-Smith caught five of nine targets for 32 yards during Sunday's 22-6 loss at Kansas City. He also lost a fumble.

Lambert-Smith drew 12 targets total over 10 games during his rookie season in 2025, so his involvement in Week 6 is eyebrow-raising. His 59 offensive snaps actually paced the Chargers' wide receivers Sunday, with Tre' Harris (hamstring) sidelined and Ladd McConkey knocked out of the contest early by a concussion. Offensive Coordinator Mike McDaniel notoriously covets players with breakaway speed, which Lambert-Smith definitely possesses (4.37-second 40-yard dash), so despite his putting the ball on the ground Sunday, McDaniel may continue to try to find ways to get Lambert-Smith involved as the campaign progresses.

Mumpfield caught two of three passes for 15 yards during the Rams' 18-16 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.

Mumpfield was on the field for only five offensive snaps against the Bills in Week 5, but he was more involved against the Cardinals with 27 offensive snaps. That snap count figures to increase for the Rams' next few games, seeing as Davante Adams is facing a 6-to-10 week recovery timeline for a ruptured left hamstring that required surgery, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The Rams will hit the road for Week 7 against the Raiders, whose defense ranks 25th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers.

Brooks caught two of three targets for 30 yards and returned a kickoff for 25 yards during Sunday's 18-16 win over the Rams.

Both of Brooks' catches came in the fourth quarter, the second of which was for 21 yards late in the period that also drew a penalty flag for unnecessary roughness by defensive back Josh Wallace. That set the Cardinals up at the Rams' 29 yard line and led to the game-winning, 43-yard field goal by Chad Ryland. Brooks has four catches (on 10 targets) for 46 yards over the Cardinals' last two games and has stepped into a more prominent role offensively since Arizona's trade of Marvin Harrison to Houston before Week 5. The Cardinals will look to make it two wins in a row in Week 7 against the Broncos, whose defense would be boosted if star defensive back Pat Surtain (ankle) was cleared to return from a two-game absence.

Cooper caught one of two targets for nine yards and added 38 yards as a kick returner during Sunday's 25-14 loss to the Panthers.

Cooper saw his offensive workload decrease with the return of DeVonta Smith in Week 6, and as a result, he failed to reel in multiple passes for the first time since Week 3. With Smith, Dontayvion Wicks and Makai Lemon all active, Cooper's ceiling will be limited from a fantasy perspective moving forward.

The Giants signed Brownlee to the practice squad Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

Brownlee will get a fresh opportunity with the Giants after playing in six regular-season games for the Chiefs in 2025. He hasn't recorded a reception since the 2023 campaign as a member of the Jets, but with the Giants' injury issues at wide receiver (most recently Darnell Mooney [neck]), Brownlee could be elevated to the team's active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans.

Rechsteiner had his six-game suspension lifted by the NFL on Tuesday, per the league's official transaction log.

Rechsteiner was suspended for the first six weeks of the regular season, but he will now be able to return to practice. In order to make room on the practice squad, fellow wideout Kevin Austin was released by the Saints on Tuesday.
