Gabe Davis WR | BUF
Jaguars' Gabe Davis: Cleared to face Detroit
Davis (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Mia O'Brien of 1010XL Radio reports.
Davis got the green light to play after three limited practices, which also is the case for fellow starting wide receiver Brian Thomas (chest). Detroit has allowed plenty of yardage to wide receivers this season, but Davis may not be able to capitalize on this favorable matchup while working with backup quarterback Mac Jones for a second consecutive week.

Brian Thomas Jr. WR | JAC
Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Cleared despite limited practices
Thomas (chest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Mia O'Brien of 1010XL Radio reports.
Thomas was limited in all three of Jacksonville's practices but will play through a chest contusion for a third consecutive game. Jacksonville's No. 1 wide receiver is a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option Week 11. Thomas has just 34 receiving yards over the past two games while playing through this injury and will be catching passes from backup quarterback Mac Jones on Sunday, but the Lions are allowing 199.1 receiving yards per game to wide receivers.

Jauan Jennings WR | MIN
49ers' Jauan Jennings: Present at practice
Jennings (ankle) is present for Friday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Jennings was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant. It's unclear how much he'll do Friday, but his presence at least suggests he still has a chance to play Sunday against the Seahawks.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Questionable for Week 11
Wilson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson was a limited practice participant all week after missing Sunday's 20-17 win over the Falcons. He may have a significant role if he avoids the inactive list before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, as the Saints have arguably the thinnest WR room in the league right now. Their wideouts combined for just six targets in the win last week, with two of those being TD passes to Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Jets' Davante Adams: Questionable but expected to play
Adams (illness/wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after logging a full practice Friday.
Coach Jeff Ulbrich relayed earlier Friday that Adams is expected to play Sunday, and Adams' ensuing participation in practice is another positive indicator. Nonetheless, Adams' fantasy managers should check in approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff for confirmation on the star wide receiver's status.

JuJu Smith-Schuster WR | KC
Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Cleared to return for Week 11
Smith-Schuster (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Smith-Schuster logged full practices Thursday and Friday, paving the way for his first game action since Oct. 20. In his last full game prior to getting injured, Smith-Schuster had 130 receiving yards. The Chiefs subsequently traded for DeAndre Hopkins, but Smith-Schuster's still in line for a prominent role in his return.

JuJu Smith-Schuster WR | KC
Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Likely to return Sunday
Coach Andy Reid said Friday that Smith-Schuster (hamstring) likely will be available Sunday in Buffalo, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Smith-Schuster finally logged a full practice Thursday for the first time since he injured his hamstring Sunday, Oct. 20 at San Francisco. Reid also told Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com on Friday the Smith-Schuster had a good week, so the veteran wide receiver seems poised to put an end to a three-game absence.

Darnell Mooney WR | NYG
Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Good to go
Mooney (Achilles) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Denver.
Added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant, Mooney apparently showed enough Friday to remove any doubt about his Week 11 availability. His production has been surprisingly close to that of fellow Falcons wideout Drake London, who may have to deal with shadow coverage from Broncos CB Patrick Surtain on Sunday.

Tee Higgins WR | CIN
Bengals' Tee Higgins: Cleared to face Chargers
Higgins (quadricep) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Chargers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Higgins, who last saw game action Week 7, was limited at practice this week, but after head coach Zac Taylor noted Friday that he expected the wideout to play this weekend, the team's final injury report cemented that outcome. Prior to sustaining his quad injury, Higgins had recorded a 29-341-3 line on 45 targets through five games, and in his looming return Higgins is poised to reclaim his key role in the Bengals passing offense while working alongside fellow starting wideout Ja'Marr Chase, a context that puts him back on the fantasy lineup radar Week 11.

Charlie Jones WR | CIN
Bengals' Charlie Jones: Won't play Week 11
Jones (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Sunday will be Jones' third straight missed contest. He hasn't caught a pass since the Week 1 opener. With Tee Higgins (quadriceps) tentatively expected to play against Los Angeles, Trenton Irwin and Jermaine Burton will head back to the bench for the Bengals.
