  • Michael Wilson WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Michael Wilson: Harrison back in lineup

    Wilson may cede some targets to Marvin Harrison (heel) in the latter's return to the lineup Sunday versus the Falcons, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    The Cardinals are getting Harrison back following a two-game absence due to a heel injury, but Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday evening that the second-year wide receiver is expected to be eased back in, meaning Wilson should remain the team's top option at the position Week 16. With Harrison sidelined four times in the last five contests, Wilson has compiled a 44-535-3 line on 67 targets during that span.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Returning to action Sunday

    London (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    London is putting an end to a four-game absence due to a PCL sprain in his left knee, but his inability to practice in any more than a limited capacity during Week 16 prep suggests he may not be able to handle his normal workload. Nevertheless, he put together three straight 100-yard receiving efforts in his last stretch of play Weeks 9-11, so he likely will resume his status as the Falcons' No. 1 WR, at the very least, for QB Kirk Cousins.

  • Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Back in action in Week 16

    Harrison (heel) is listed as active Sunday against the Falcons.

    Harrison is putting an end to a two-game absence -- and four DNPs in the past five contests -- but according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the second-year wide receiver likely will be eased back in after being limited in all three Week 16 sessions as he attempts to put a heel injury behind him. Assuming Harrison's snap count is curtailed, Michael Wilson will continue to operate as the Cardinals' top option at the position, while Xavier Weaver (hamstring), Jalen Brooks and Steven Sims also will be on hand for snaps and targets.

  • Ryan Flournoy WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Ryan Flournoy: Hurts knee in Week 16

    Flournoy sustained a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Chargers, AllDLLS.com reports.

    Flournoy was on the receiving end of a big hit from the Chargers' Denzel Perryman at the end of a 13-yard catch that resulted in the linebacker being flagged for unnecessary roughness. Prior to his exit in the second quarter, Flournoy hauled in both of his targets for 18 yards and one touchdown.

  • Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG

    Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Shrinks back to inactive status

    Hyatt (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 16 contest versus Minnesota, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Hyatt was also a healthy scratch Week 13 against New England. The third-year wideout did get to participate last Sunday versus Washington, but he saw only four offensive snaps and didn't catch his lone target. Gunner Olszewski missed that game due to a concussion but is back for Week 16, which likely is the reason for Hyatt reverting to inactive.

  • Jalen Tolbert WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Healthy scratch Week 16

    Tolbert (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Tolbert will be a healthy inactive for the fourth time in five games as the Cowboys go with five wide receivers on Sunday's active roster in CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Ryan Flournoy, KaVontae Turpin and Jonathan Mingo. Tolbert's next chance to play is Christmas Day against the Commanders, though he's unlikely to play in that contest unless there is an injury to the wide receiver corps that opens up a spot on the active roster.

  • Dolphins' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Healthy scratch Week 16

    Westbrook-Ikhine (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

    The 28-year-old has played in all 14 games for Miami this season, but he'll be a healthy scratch Sunday after going without a catch in the past four contests. Cedrick Wilson, Dee Eskridge and Theo Wease will compete for reps as Miami's No. 3 wideout with Westbrook-Ikhine inactive.

  • Buccaneers' Sterling Shepard: Healthy scratch Week 16

    Shepard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Carolina, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Shepard had a big role in Tampa Bay's passing game early in the campaign while the team dealt with multiple injuries among its wide-receiver corps. However, the veteran wideout didn't log any offensive snaps last week against Atlanta, which coincided with both Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan returning to action after long absences. Now that the Bucs' wideout room is almost fully healthy, Shepard may not have a role for most contests.

  • Derius Davis WR | LAC

    Chargers' Derius Davis: Inactive with ankle issue

    Davis (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Davis will miss his second straight game due to a persistent ankle issue. The 25-year-old's absence means rookie KeAndre Lambert-Smith will likely take on a bigger role as a kick returner, with Ladd McConkey likely taking over punt return duties.

  • Gabe Davis WR | BUF

    Bills' Gabe Davis: Inactive versus Cleveland

    Davis is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    The same applies to fellow WR Keon Coleman. Buffalo's Week 16 wide receiver corps will thus be comprised of Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Tyrell Shavers, Brandin Cooks and Mecole Hardman.
