Parris Campbell WR | DAL
Parris Campbell: Reverts to practice squad
Campbell reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday.
Campbell played two snaps on special teams during the Eagles' NFC wild-card win over the Packers, but he did not show up in the box score otherwise. The veteran wideout could be elevated for the Eagles' divisional-round clash against the Rams on Sunday.

Jalen Virgil WR | BUF
Jalen Virgil: Back to practice squad
Virgil reverted to Buffalo's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Virgil was elevated to the Bills' active roster Saturday but was inactive for Sunday's wild-card game against the Broncos. He appeared in seven regular-season games for Buffalo, mostly playing on special teams. That would likely be his role should he be elevated for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Ravens.

Anthony Miller WR | BAL
Anthony Miller: Returns to practice squad
Miller reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Miller was one of two wide receivers to be elevated for Saturday's wild-card game against the Steelers, and he ended up getting the nod over Keith Kirkwood. Miller played nine snaps on offense and caught all three of his targets for 12 yards, tying Isaiah Likely for the second-most receptions on the team behind Justice Hill (four). Miller could be elevated for Sunday's AFC divisional-round clash against the Bills if Zay Flowers (knee) is unable to play.

Keith Kirkwood: Reverts to practice squad
Kirkwood reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Despite being elevated to the active roster for the first time Saturday, Kirkwood was inactive for the Ravens' AFC wild-card win over the Steelers. He'll be available for elevation for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Bills.

A.T. Perry WR | PIT
Broncos' A.T. Perry: Staying in Denver
The Broncos signed Perry to a reserve/future contract Monday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Perry made the Saints' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he didn't play due to various injuries before being waived by New Orleans in early October. He was signed to the Broncos' practice squad Oct. 8, but he wasn't elevated to Denver's active roster during the regular season. The 2023 sixth-rounder out of Wake Forest will participate in OTAs and training camp with the Broncos and work to earn a spot on the active roster for the 2025 campaign.

Tyler Johnson WR | DAL
Rams' Tyler Johnson: Not playing in wild-card round
Johnson (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's NFC wild-card game against the Vikings, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
Johnson tied a season high with 49 offensive snap during the Rams' regular-season finale against the Seahawks due to both Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp being sidelined for rest purposes, and Johnson finished the game with four catches (on seven targets) for 35 yards and one touchdown. Johnson will observe Monday's game in street clothes, though he could be active for the Rams' divisional-round game if they beat the Vikings.

Jahan Dotson WR | ATL
Eagles' Jahan Dotson: Opens scoring in playoff win
Dotson reached the end zone for the first time as an Eagle in Sunday's wild-card win over the Packers, finishing with one catch for an 11-yard score.
The Eagles got off to a quick start in their 22-10 win, forcing a fumble on the opening kickoff and scoring just three plays later on second-and-9 from the 11. Jalen Hurts had nearly seven seconds in the pocket and found Dotson wide open at the back of the end zone for the wideout's first score since Week 11 of the 2023 season. The rest of the game was more typical for Dotson's time in Philadelphia, as he received just one more target and did not record a reception.

Jayden Reed WR | GB
Packers' Jayden Reed: Says he won't need surgery
Reed said Monday that he won't need surgery on his dislocated shoulder, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
He missed the end of Sunday's playoff loss to the Eagles but should be ready for OTAs in the spring. It was a disappointing end to a disappointing season in which 72.3 percent of Reed's receiving yards came in the first nine games. He appeared well on his way to a 1,000-yard campaign for much of the season, before averaging 29.6 receiving yards and 3.6 targets after a Week 10 bye, ultimately finishing with a 55-857-6 receiving line and 20-163-1 on the ground. Reed offers an unusual combination of rushing contributions and big receiving plays from the slot, but it's hard to say if/when he'll progress beyond boom/bust-WR3 status for fantasy.

Zay Flowers WR | BAL
Ravens' Zay Flowers: Uncertain for divisional round
Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Monday that the team is in "we'll see mode" with Flowers (knee) ahead of Sunday's divisional-round game at Buffalo, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Banner reports.
"[Flowers] is working very hard to get back, and we'll see toward the end of the week if he's practicing," Harbaugh said. "He can play without practicing, for sure, if he feels healthy enough and if it's safe for him." Flowers was injured Week 18 and didn't practice last week, ultimately getting ruled out Thursday for Saturday's eventual 28-14 win over the Steelers. His absence allowed WR Tylan Wallace to take 53 percent of snaps on offense, with Rashod Bateman at 49 percent, Steven Sims at 18 percent and Anthony Miller at 12 percent. Bateman was the clear leader in route share at 86 percent, followed by Wallace (50 percent), Agholor (36 percent) and Miller (23 percent). The Ravens likely will need more from their WRs this Sunday against the Bills, and there's a big decline in quality/productivity after Flowers and Bateman.

Olamide Zaccheaus WR | ATL
Commanders' Olamide Zaccheaus: Catches three passes for 19 yards
Zaccheaus caught each of his three targets for 19 yards in a 23-20 win at Tampa Bay on Sunday.
Zaccheaus finished second among Washington's wide receivers in snap share (68 percent), slightly ahead of Dyami Brown, who took 58 percent of snaps and caught each of his five targets for 89 yards and a touchdown. Zaccheaus out-produced Brown in each of the final three games of the regular season, catching 15 of 22 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns during that stretch, so both figure to be involved in the offense during Washington's next playoff game Saturday at Detroit.
