Agholor (concussion) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

The Ravens haven't confirmed that Agholor has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, but his ability to open Week 18 prep with a full practice is a sign that he's on pace to be ready to play Saturday versus the Browns. Agholor has missed the Ravens' last two games, which has allowed Tylan Wallace and Devontez Walker to see more reps alongside the team's top two wideouts, Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman.

Jones (groin) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

A groin injury has kept Jones out of action since Week 8, though he's regularly been limited in practices over the past few weeks. While the second-year wideout wasn't playing a big role on offense prior to getting hurt, he had been serving as the Bengals' top kick and punt returner. Jermaine Burton and Isaiah Williams have been filling those roles of late with Jones out of action.

Higgins (ankle/knee) was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

Cincinnati listed Higgins as a limited participant in all three of its Week 17 practices due to the same pair of injuries before deeming him questionable for this past Saturday's game against the Bengals. He proceeded to suit up and delivered a career-best performance, playing 62 of 90 snaps on offense while finishing with 11 catches for 131 yards and three touchdowns on 12 targets in the Bengals' 30-24 overtime win. Assuming he escaped from that game with no setbacks, Higgins' limitations to begin Week 18 prep were likely just maintenance-related. He's expected to be cleared to play against the Steelers this Saturday as the Bengals look to chase down a playoff berth with a win plus Broncos and Dolphins losses Sunday.

Skowronek (hip) was a limited participant in practice Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Skowronek missed last Wednesday's Week 17 game against Kansas City due to a hip issue, but head coach Mike Tomlin indicated Monday that the fourth-year wideout is expected to be back for Saturday's matchup versus the Bengals. A limited practice session to open the week opens the door for that to happen, and the wideout's participation level Wednesday and Thursday should provide further clarity. If he does suit up Saturday, Skowronek will likely take on his usual depth role among the Steelers' wide-receiver corps.

Wilson (hamstring) was a full participant in practice Tuesday after being designated to return from IR, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Wilson has been on injured reserve since Oct. 28, but he practiced without restrictions after being designated to return Tuesday. The rookie wideout could return to action in Week 18 or at some point in the postseason, though Pittsburgh would first need to activate him to the 53-man roster. The Steelers have a relatively healthy receiving corps at the moment, so they're likely in no rush to make a decision on Wilson.

The Steelers opened the 21-day-practice window for Wilson (hamstring) on Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Wilson missed the beginning of the season with an ankle injury, then hurt his hamstring in his NFL debut Week 6 versus the Raiders. He was subsequently placed on IR, and he's been there since late October. It's been mostly a lost season for Pittsburgh's third-round selection in April's NFL Draft, though Wilson's return to practice means he could be activated ahead of Saturday's Week 18 game against Cincinnati or at some point during the playoffs.

The Browns placed Tillman (concussion) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Tillman wasn't much of a factor in the Browns' passing game through the first six games of the campaign, but he saw his production spike with Jameis Winston under center. Over a four-game stretch from Weeks 7 through 11, the second-year wideout produced a 24-302-3 receiving line on 40 targets while playing at least 80 percent of the offensive snaps in every contest. However, after being forced out of the Browns' Week 12 win over the Steelers with a concussion, Tillman has made slow progress through the league's protocols. He's missed each of the Browns' last five games while managing nothing more than limited participation in practice. Tillman should be fully cleared in advance of the offseason program and may have showed enough during his impressive stretch to have a meaningful role in Cleveland's 2025 offense.

Marshall caught one of two targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints.

Marshall made his longest reception as a Raider on a 28-yard pass from quarterback Aidan O'Connell early in the second quarter, but the former second-round pick was targeted just once in the second half as Marshall continued to play behind Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker. A much more difficult test awaits in Week 18 when Las Vegas hosts the Chargers.

Tucker caught two of eight targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints. He also rushed once for five yards and returned two punts for 28 yards.

Tucker made up for a measly 25 percent catch rate with an 18-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter, but he's now caught two passes or less in five consecutive games. It won't get any easier for Tucker in Week 18 against a stout Chargers defense that figures to play its starters if the Bengals beat the Steelers on Saturday, giving Los Angeles a chance to move up to the fifth seed in the AFC.

Iosivas reeled in three of four targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Broncos.

Iosivas caught three passes for the second straight week, though he wasn't able to find the end zone again as he did in Week 16 against Cleveland. The 25-year-old wideout played 79 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps, behind Ja'Marr Chase and ahead of Tee Higgins, who had snap percentages of 88 and 69 percent, respectively. Iosivas' four targets were well behind Chase (15), Higgins (12) and tight end Mike Gesicki (12). The Princeton product should continue to be an ancillary piece of the Bengals' passing attack, capping his potential for consistent fantasy production. Iosivas is best ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Steelers.
