Coleman secured two of 10 targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Patriots.

Coleman did little with the team-high 10 targets he drew from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, who played most of the game in place of Josh Allen with Buffalo having already secured the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs. With Trubisky under center, Curtis Samuel was the only member of the Bills' offense to eclipse 50 receiving yards. Coleman will resume his usual role on offense as Buffalo hosts the Broncos in a wild-card round matchup this Sunday.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that Cooper (personal) will participate in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.

Cooper didn't travel with the team ahead of its Week 18 road loss to the Patriots due to a personal family matter. With the wideout slated to practice Wednesday in some capacity, Cooper appears on track to be available for Sunday's wild-card round game against the Broncos. The Bills' first injury report of the report will be released later Wednesday and will indicate the extent of Cooper's participation in the walkthrough.

Bourne finished the 2024 regular season with 28 catches (on 38 targets) for 305 yards and a TD in 12 games.

Bourne, who suffered a torn right ACL in Week 8 of the 2023 season, began the 2024 campaign on the PUP list before being activated ahead of Week 5 action. Not surprisingly, the veteran wideout was eased back into the mix, but even when he started to see an uptick in playing time, his fantasy impact was modest most weeks. Looking ahead, Bourne is under contract with New England through 2026, but as Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston notes, it's possible that the rebuilding Patriots could consider moving on from the 29-year-old pass catcher this offseason.

Nailor secured three of four targets for 53 yards during Sunday's 31-9 loss at Detroit.

Nailor stepped up his production during Minnesota's final two regular-season games, a span in which he combined for an 8-134-1 receiving line on nine targets. The 2022 sixth-round pick also had a hot start to the season, but from Week 8 to Week 16 he totaled just 67 yards on offense, albeit with two scores. Across 17 regular-season games, Nailor tallied 28 catches for 414 yards and six touchdowns on 42 targets. Nailor will work to remain productive behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison during Monday's road wild-card matchup against the Rams.

Jarrett did not log a target over seven snaps on offense during the Buccaneers' 27-19 win over the Saints on Sunday. He finished the 2024 regular season with nine receptions for 124 yards on 11 targets and 141 kickoff-return yards in 10 games.

The speedy wideout had little opportunity for action with Sterling Shepard making his return from a one-game absence prompted by hamstring and foot injuries. Jarrett saw one fewer snap than fellow reserves Ryan Miller and Trey Palmer, and all three players are likely to primarily be limited to special-teams duties during the Buccaneers' upcoming postseason run.

Miller logged eight snaps on offense and did not see a target during the Buccaneers' 27-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Miller had filled the No. 3 receiver role Week 17 against the Panthers with Sterling Shepard sidelined due to hamstring and foot injuries, and he'd also recorded a key late-fourth-quarter touchdown grab in a narrow Week 16 loss to the Cowboys. However, with Shepard back in uniform Sunday, Miller didn't have any offensive highlights, going without a catch for the first time since Week 14. The undrafted Furman product finished his second season with his first 12 NFL receptions, which he took for 128 yards and a pair of touchdowns across 11 games. Miller is likely to remain in a deep reserve and special-teams role during the upcoming postseason.

Flowers (knee) is viewed as a "longshot" to be available to play in Saturday's wild-card game against the Steelers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Flowers sprained his right knee in this past Saturday's 35-10 win over the Browns, and though head coach John Harbaugh classified him as day-to-day Monday, the wideout's chances of suiting up in the playoff opener don't appear promising. He was a non-participant in the Ravens' first practice session of the week Tuesday, and he'll almost certainly need to get back on the field as at least a limited participant by Thursday to have a legitimate chance of being ready to go for Saturday. Though Flowers appears unlikely to play against Pittsburgh, Rapoport relays that the 24-year-old will have a better chance to return for the divisional round if the Ravens can get past the Steelers.

Palmer logged eight snaps on offense in Sunday's 27-19 win over the Saints but did not see a target. He netted no gain on his one punt return.

The second-year wideout was limited to punt returns for the second consecutive week Sunday, as the majority of the Buccaneers' wide-receiver snaps were distributed among Mike Evans, Jalen McMillan and Sterling Shepard. Palmer is likely to remain primarily limited to returns during the upcoming postseason after finishing his second regular season with 12 catches for 172 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets, 14 kickoff-return yards and 136 punt-return yards over 15 games.

Wilson (hamstring) was a full practice participant Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Wilson is still on IR, where he's been since late October. He was designated to return Dec. 31 and was a full practice participant all last week but was held out of Pittsburgh's Week 18 loss to Cincinnati. Wilson appears to be recovered from his hamstring injury, but Pittsburgh would need to activate him off IR in order for the depth receiver to be able to play in Saturday's wild-card contest in Baltimore.

Mitchell failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Jaguars.

Mitchell was a complete non-factor in Sunday's contest, unable to reel in the only pass that came his way. The rookie wideout played just 16 of the Colts' 78 offensive snaps while operating as the No. 4 wide receiver behind Michael Pittman (71), Alec Pierce (64) and Josh Downs (59). Mitchell finished the 2024 campaign with just 23 receptions for 312 yards, failing to find the end zone through 17 games. The 22-year-old will enter the second year of his rookie deal in 2025, as the Colts will likely look to get the young receiver more involved in their offensive attack now that he has more experience within their system.
