Wicks was targeted twice and caught one pass for nine yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants.

Wicks finished third among Packers wideouts in snaps, but he saw only a quarter of the season-high eight targets he drew in Week 10. He's getting some opportunities, but he has racked up only 18 receptions and 181 yards through eight appearances this season, and his playing time will likely take a hit when Jayden Reed (collarbone/foot, IR) is ready to rejoin the fray.

Schultz (shoulder) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report.

Schultz has been dealing with a shoulder injury for nearly a month, but he's played in each of the Texans' last four games and made 21 catches on 31 targets for 205 yards and one touchdown. Considering his production hasn't tailed off with Davis Mills and not C.J. Stroud (concussion) under center the last two contests, Schultz remains a viable fantasy option ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Bills.

The Cowboys placed Cornelius (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

The sixth-round rookie offensive lineman has appeared in one game this season, logging seven snaps on special teams. He'll miss at least the next four contests.

Williams was targeted once and caught one pass for 33 yards in Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Giants. He also returned one kickoff for 33 yards.

Williams did not see a pass go in his direction until the fourth quarter, but he made the most of his lone target, tallying the longest reception of his rookie season on a scoring drive that provided the Packers with the final margin of victory. Williams has been more involved in the box score than he was early in the campaign, but he logged only two snaps Sunday and six the week before, so his chances to produce remain limited.

Collins was limited at Monday's walkthrough due to an ankle injury.

Collins previously dealt with a knee issue and a concussion this season, so this is a new concern for the fifth-year pro ahead of Thursday's game against the Bills. Meanwhile, C.J. Stroud (concussion) was a DNP on Monday, and Davis Mills seems poised for another start under center in Week 12. Working with Mills the past two contests, Collins put together a 16-228-1 line on 25 targets.

Thompson (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated practice report.

The Bills held a walkthrough Monday after beating the Bucs on Sunday, and the team is now on a short week ahead of Thursday night's date with the Texans. The 31-year-old veteran linebacker has been sidelined since Week 8.

Hardman (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

The Bills held a walkthrough Monday after beating the Bucs on Sunday. In his first game with the team Sunday, Hardman played four offensive snaps and seven on special teams. He failed to catch his lone target and returned one kickoff for 61 yards while fumbling his lone punt-return opportunity.

Stroud (concussion) didn't participate in Monday's walkthrough.

Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reported earlier Monday that Stroud remained in the concussion protocol, and his lack of activity to begin Week 12 prep indicates that he hasn't made any tangible progress in his recovery. Stroud is trending toward a third straight absence Thursday against the Bills, leaving Davis Mills under center again.

The Jets designated McCrary-Ball (hamstring) for return from injured reserve Monday.

The move opens McCrary-Ball's 21-day practice window after he was injured in the Jets' Week 3 loss to the Buccaneers. Prior to going down, McCrary-Ball had logged 77 defensive snaps and another 75 on special teams through three contests.

Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Taylor-Britt (foot) is expected to require surgery for a Lisfranc injury suffered during the team's loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

Taylor-Britt was present at team facilities Monday in a walking boot and moving with the help of a knee scooter, per Morrison. Lisfranc procedures carry a multi-month recovery timeframe, so if it's confirmed that Taylor-Britt requires surgery it will effectively end his 2025 campaign, and potentially, his tenure with Cincinnati. The 2022 second-round pick is in the final year of his rookie deal, and after having opened the season as one of the Bengals' starting outside corners, inconsistent performance led to his opportunity share declining, including being a healthy scratch Week 7. That said, prior to suffering his foot injury, Taylor-Britt's involvement on defense had been trending up again.
