  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Paces pass catchers in loss

    Johnston brought in five of eight targets for 98 yards in the Chargers' 20-16 loss to the Texans on Saturday.

    Johnston got off to a slow start, but he ended up giving his day a significant boost via a team-high 60-yard catch late in the first half. The speedster finished with a team-high yardage tally and co-led the Chargers in targets as well, and Johnston is now averaging 101.5 receiving yards over his last two contests as a Week 18 road clash against the Broncos approaches.

  • Packers' Savion Williams: Sitting out Saturday

    Williams (foot/illness) is inactive for Saturday's game versus the Ravens, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Williams was listed as full on all three Week 17 injury reports due to his lingering foot issue, but the Packers tagged him as questionable Friday due to an illness that now will force his fourth absence in the past five contests. His next chance to suit up is Week 18 at Minnesota, but at least for Week 17, Green Bay's receiving corps will be composed of Christian Watson (shoulder/illness), Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden, Dontayvion Wicks and Bo Melton (illness).

  • Tylan Wallace WR | BAL

    Ravens' Tylan Wallace: Healthy scratch

    Wallace (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday night's game against the Packers.

    Wallace has participated in 13 games this season, collecting four receptions for 45 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The Ravens will stick with a wide receiver corps of Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, DeAndre Hopkins, Devontez Walker, and LaJohntay Wester for Sunday night's contest, a game that could eliminate them from playoff contention.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Active in Week 17

    Watson (shoulder/illness) is active for Saturday's game against the Ravens, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    After kicking off Week 17 prep with back-to-back full listings as he continues to deal with a lingering shoulder injury, Watson didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, leaving him questionable ahead of the weekend. Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported Saturday afternoon that Watson was expected to play, which now has been confirmed. Watson will be working within the confines of a Packers offense directed by Malik Willis (right shoulder/illness) instead of Jordan Love (left shoulder/concussion), the latter of whom was ruled out Friday, so coach Matt LaFleur may prioritize the ground game based on Willis' more mobile skill set. When Willis started in Weeks 2 and 3 of the 2024 season in place of Love, Watson hauled in both of his targets for 67 yards.

  • Raiders' Phillip Dorsett: Elevated for Week 17

    The Raiders elevated Dorsett from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Dorsett has not played in a game yet this season, with Sunday being his first elevation of the 2025 campaign. The veteran wide receiver is still behind Tre Tucker, Jack Bech (back), Tyler Lockett, Alex Bachman, Dont'e Thornton, and Shedrick Jackson on the depth chart, so any potential playing opportunities will likely be on the special-teams unit.

  • Theo Wease Jr. WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Theo Wease: Signs with active roster

    The Dolphins signed Wease to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday.

    Wease was elevated for the Dolphins' Week 16 loss to the Bengals. The wide receiver played 36 percent of offensive snaps in the contest, catching two of his four targets for 32 yards. The signing was coupled with Dee Eskridge's (toe) move to injured reserve.

  • Dolphins' Dee Eskridge: Moves to IR

    The Dolphins placed Eskridge (toe) on the injured reserve list Saturday.

    The Western Michigan product sustained a toe injury in the Week 16 loss to the Bengals and will now be sidelined for the remainder of the season. Eskridge appeared in 13 games this year, catching four of seven targets for 62 yards while recording a career-high 726 kick-return yards. Expect Malik Washington to operate as the Dolphins' top return man while Eskridge misses the remainder of 2025.

  • Jets' Quentin Skinner: Signs with active roster

    The Jets signed Skinner off their practice squad Saturday.

    The 24-year-old from Kansas joined the Jets' practice squad in late August after failing to make the initial 53-man roster, but he's now been elevated ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots. Skinner has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 557 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 25 catches during his final collegiate season in 2024.

  • Steven Sims WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Steven Sims: Back with active roster

    The Cardinals elevated Sims from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

    The 28-year-old has been elevated to Arizona's active roster for the second consecutive week ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bengals. In the Week 16 loss to the Falcons, Sims tallied 55 kick-return yards but failed to haul in his lone target. He's expected to play another depth role in the Cardinals' receiving corps while contributing on special teams in Week 17.

  • Mecole Hardman WR | BUF

    Mecole Hardman: Dropped by Buffalo

    Hardman was waived by the Bills on Saturday.

    Hardman was picked up by the Bills in early November and appeared in just two games prior to being waived, recording 61 kick-return yards and four punt-return yards. Now a free agent, the 2019 second-round pick from Georgia could catch on with a team in need of a return man.
