Miller reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday.

Miller played just one offensive snap in the Ravens' 34-17 win over the Steelers on Saturday and did not show up in the box score. However, with injuries to Zay Flowers (shoulder) and Nelson Agholor (concussion), Miller could be elevated to Baltimore's active roster for Wednesday's game against Houston.

Dotson finished with zero catches for the second straight week Sunday against the Commanders.

Dotson's two chances at a revenge game this season have led to a combined one catch for eight yards. To be fair to Dotson, the Eagles leaned heavily on the run Sunday after Jalen Hurts exited early with a concussion, completing a total of just 15 passes. All but one of those went to A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith.

Boyd recorded two receptions (on three targets) for 20 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Colts.

Boyd was on the field for around half of the offensive snaps and got off to a hot start by recording both of his receptions on Tennessee's first two possessions. However, he didn't record a catch for the rest of the game and now has been held below 40 receiving yards in four straight games.

Westbrook-Ikhine recorded two receptions (on four targets) for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Colts.

Westbrook-Ikhine was briefly on the injury report during the week with an ankle issue but was on the field for 91 percent of offensive snaps. He still saw only four targets and has nine opportunities combined across his last three games. Westbrook-Ikhine did find the end zone from six yards away midway through the fourth quarter with the Titans in the midst of a comeback.

Valdes-Scantling (chest/illness) is listed as inactive Monday at Green Bay.

Valdes-Scantling kicked off Week 16 prep with a DNP last Thursday due to a chest injury, but he remained out of practice as of Friday due to an illness and eventually was listed as questionable for Monday's game. With Valdes-Scantling unavailable, the Saints will be rolling with Kevin Austin, Dante Pettis, Cedrick Wilson and Mason Tipton at wide receiver.

Metchie (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Monday's injury report.

Metchie didn't practice last week before being ruled out ahead of this past Saturday's game at Kansas City. Since then, he followed Sunday's limited listing with an upgrade to full activity one day later, indicating he's past the shoulder injury that sidelined him in Week 16. Prior to the recent absence, Metchie had recorded at least one catch in five consecutive contests en route to a 13-146-1 line on 18 targets.

Agholor (concussion) was a non-participant at Monday's practice.

Agholor has been in the concussion protocol for nearly a week, but with no on-field work to speak of yet, he appears to be trending toward a second straight absence Wednesday in Houston. Tuesday's injury report could provide some clarity in that regard, but with Zay Flowers also not practicing this week due to a shoulder issue, Rashod Bateman, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and Steven Sims are the healthy wide receivers on the Ravens' active roster.

The Texans placed Dell (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Head coach DeMeco Ryans noted Monday that Dell suffered a torn ACL and dislocated kneecap in Saturday's loss to the Chiefs, per DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com. The report also relays that Ryans added that there are "other things" Dell will need to get repaired when he undergoes surgery to address his significant injury. The 2023 third-rounder thus faces a lengthy recovery period, and in Dell's absence, Nico Collins, John Metchie, Robert Woods, Xavier Hutchinson and newcomer Diontae Johnson are in line to lead the Texans wideout corps going forward.

The Ravens claimed Sims off waivers from Houston on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Sims has found a new home just three days after being waived by the Texans. The sixth-year pass catcher served in more of a special-teams role with Houston across his seven games this season. He may assume a similar role with the Ravens, but the fact wide receivers Zay Flowers (shoulder) and Nelson Agholor (concussion) are both questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Texans could clear the path for Sims to be active against his old squad.

Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Monday that Legette (hip) is day-to-day but added that the wideout will need "significant" improvement this week in order to suit up Sunday against Tampa Bay, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Legette may be showing improvement given Canales' description of his timeframe, as the wideout was deemed week-to-week back on Dec. 16. However, the rookie's status for Sunday remains in flux, given the coach's additional comments. With Legette out this past Sunday versus Arizona, Jalen Coker served as Carolina's No. 2 wideout behind Adam Thielen while David Moore logged 89 percent of the team's offensive snaps and notched a receiving touchdown.
