Evans brought in five of six targets for 68 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Making his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Evans finished with a team-high receiving yardage total while checking in second in both receptions and targets. The veteran wideout looked as healthy as he proclaimed he was coming into the game and contributed a 26-yard grab among his five catches. Evans, whose catch and yardage totals Sunday were his highest since Week 4, will next take aim at a vulnerable Panthers defense in a Week 13 road divisional battle.

Downs exited Sunday's game against the Lions with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return.

Prior to his exit from the contest, Downs caught three of his six targets for 27 yards. In Downs' absence, Michael Pittman, Alec Pierceand Adonai Mitchell are available to pick up snaps at receiver.

Dulin (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game against the Lions, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

The wide receiver was unable to catch his only target of the day before leaving the contest. With Josh Downs questionable to return due to a shoulder injury, Indianapolis is down to three healthy wide receivers in Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell.

Raymond (foot) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Colts.

The wide receiver and punt returner got injured on a third-quarter punt return. Raymond did not catch his only target on the day before exiting, though he did return two punts for 30 yards. Allen Robinson might see more snaps in his absence.

Shenault (back) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Arizona.

Shenault was hurt in last Sunday's win over San Francisco and sat out practice both Wednesday and Thursday before returning with a full session Friday. Despite his ability to participate in that final practice, the special-teams ace won't be able to suit up against the Cardinals. Shenault's absence will most impact Seattle's return game, and Dee Williams will likely be asked to handle kickoff returns in the former's stead.

Raymond is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 12 matchup against Indianapolis due to a foot injury, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.

Raymond's injury occurred on a third-quarter punt return. He got one target (which he didn't catch) in addition to returning two punts for 30 yards prior to his exit. If Raymond can't get back into the game Sunday, Allen Robinson could see more snaps on offense.

Sims (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's clash against the Titans.

Sims was also a healthy scratch last week against Dallas. The veteran wideout has served as receiver depth while working primarily on special teams through much of the campaign, but the Texans have less need for his role with Nico Collins in his second week back from a stint on injured reserve. Even during the five weeks Collins was out, Sims logged just eight offensive snaps over three contests.

Scott (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Scott has played just two offensive snaps over his last two regular-season outings, and he'll be a healthy inactive for Sunday's contest. His next chance to play will be Week 13 against the Lions on Thursday, Nov. 28.

Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The depth wide receiver and special teamer missed the Giants' last two games with the Achilles injury but was able to practice on a limited basis in the week leading up to this game. Ford-Wheaton has played on two offensive snaps and 143 special-teams snaps in 2024. He has yet to catch a pass this season.

Coker (quadricep) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Coker will be wearing street clothes Sunday after he suffered a quad injury in practice Thursday and then missed the Panthers' final session of the week Friday. After Coker played 90 percent of the offensive snaps in the Panthers' Week 10 win over the Giants prior to a Week 11 bye, Carolina will likely turn to Adam Thielen (hamstring) to replace him as the primary option out of the slot in the latter's return from injured reserve. If Coker is able to move past the quad injury in time for the Panthers' next game Week 13 against the Buccaneers, he could be in store for a smaller role if Thielen looks healthy in his return to the lineup.
