Bobo caught his lone target for a four-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-25 win over the Rams. He finished the 2024 season with 13 catches (17 targets) for 107 yards and a touchdown.

Bobo finally found the end zone in the final week of the season. The second-year receiver averaged 17.7 offensive snaps per game as the Seahawks' No. 4 wideout. He could compete for a promotion behind DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba next season if Tyler Lockett moves on, but the Seahawks would likely bring in significant competition rather than let Bobo walk into that role.

Flowers (knee) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Flowers didn't practice Tuesday or Wednesday, either, with his continued absence Thursday clouding his status for Saturday night's playoff opener against the Steelers. The Ravens' upcoming injury report will reveal whether or not Flowers has a chance to be available for the contest.

Cracraft secured all four of his targets for 38 yards during Miami's 32-20 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Cracraft logged his first game of the year with more than one catch during the Dolphins' regular-season finale. A significant shoulder injury forced him to begin the season on IR, but even after retaking the field, Cracraft managed just seven catches for 66 yards (on nine targets) across eight appearances. The veteran wideout is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Franklin finished the 2024 regular season with 28 receptions on 53 targets for 263 yards and two touchdowns.

Franklin's rookie campaign was relatively quiet, as the Oregon product played just 365 offensive snaps across the 16 games he appeared in. Filling the No. 4 receiver role, the 21-year-old played over 50 percent of snaps in a contest just once this season. Franklin's limited role and lack of experience certainly capped his potential this season, but his continued development should be a positive sign for the fourth-round pick. Additionally, quarterback Bo Nix has played well as a rookie and should continue to develop alongside Franklin, his college teammate. With more experience, Franklin could see his role increase in 2025 as a member of Denver's young receiving corps.

Humphrey ended the 2024 regular season with 31 receptions on 45 targets for 293 yards and a touchdown across 17 games.

Humphrey recorded career highs in catches, targets and yards during the 2024 campaign while appearing in all 17 games for the second straight season. With that said, the veteran wideout was not a major part of the Broncos' offensive plans this season, operating in a depth role behind Courtland Sutton, Devaughn Vele, Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin. Humphrey will head into the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, but its possible his long-standing connection with head coach Sean Payton could help him to get another contract offer from the Broncos if he doesn't land with a new team in 2025.

Bell recorded three catches for 27 yards on three targets during his lone appearance of the season before dislocating his right hip in a Week 2 win over the Jaguars and undergoing surgery.

The hip injury prevented Bell from staking a claim to a larger role in Cleveland's receiving corps late in the season, when other young wideouts like Cedric Tillman and Michael Woods were able to move into larger role. It's unclear where Bell stands with regards to the injury, but he enters the final season of his rookie deal in 2025 as one of the more experienced rostered receivers on an offense that will undergo change during the offseason.

Woods (knee) recorded seven catches on 18 targets for 65 yards over five appearances during the 2024 season.

All of Woods' playing time came during a five-week stretch between Weeks 12 and 17, before a knee injury prevented him from suiting up for the season finale. He often served as the third wideout in those contests, though he likely would have fallen further in the pecking order had Cedric Tillman (concussion) and/or David Bell (hip) been available.

Lockett caught two of four targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 30-25 win over the Rams.

The veteran wideout finished the 2024 campaign with 49 catches for 600 yards two touchdowns, his lowest totals in each category since 2017. The emergence of second-year wideout Jaxon Smith-Njiba resulted in Lockett moving into a tertiary role in the passing game, with Smith-Njiba and DK Metcalf being the clear top targets for quarterback Geno Smith. Lockett will enter the final year of his contract in 2025, and with both Smith-Njigba and Metcalf on the books as well, Lockett is unlikely to see his role grow next season.

Hollins caught three of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Patriots.

Hollins played all but one of the Bills' 67 offensive snaps Sunday, his highest snap percentage of the season. With Buffalo having clinched the No. 2 seed in the AFC, the Bills elected to rest many of their key players, opening the door to extended playing time for the veteran wideout. Despite seeing a major uptick in usage and leading all wide receivers in playing time, Hollins' minimal production was disappointing. Nonetheless, the 31-year-old will revert back to his depth role when Bills host the Broncos in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

Doubs (illness) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Doubs came down with an illness this past weekend and wasn't able so suit up in Sunday's loss to the Bears. He told Ryan Wood of USA Today on Wednesday that his condition worsened leading up to the Week 18 game, but he's been "doing better" in the meantime. With an uncapped session now under his belt, Doubs will make his return to a receiving corps that will be without Christian Watson for its playoff run due to a torn ACL suffered last weekend. Watson's absence should open up snaps and targets for Doubs along with Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton and Malik Heath during Sunday's wild-card game in Philadelphia.
