Watson (knee) is active for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Watson thus is back in action for the first time since he suffered a torn ACL in his right knee Week 18 of last season. However, considering he wasn't able to log a full practice during his 21-day window in which to mix into drills before the Packers activated him from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, he may operate with a cap on his snaps Sunday. In any case, Watson will be available along with fellow WRs Matthew Golden (hip), Romeo Doubs, Malik Heath and Savion Williams for QB Jordan Love, while Dontayvion Wicks (calf) is inactive.

Parrish (oblique) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints.

Parrish appeared to sustain the injury during the fourth quarter. The Buccaneers are holding a commanding lead late in the fourth quarter, so he's is unlikely to return to Sunday's game even if he is cleared to do so. Josh Hayes and Benjamin Morrison would be in line for snaps at the slot corner position if Parrish remains sidelined.

Romo made his lone field-goal attempt and connected on his only extra-point try during the Falcons' 34-10 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Romo put the Falcons on the board with a 45-yard field goal early in the second quarter and added a PAT in the fourth frame, but he was otherwise idle as Atlanta struggled to move the ball down the field with Kirk Cousins under center for the injured Michael Penix (knee). Romo is now 10-for-13 on field-goal attempts and has made all 10 of his extra-point tries through six regular-season games.

Boutte caught three of five targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Browns.

Mack Hollins surprisingly led the Patriots in catches, receiving yards and targets, but Boutte made a big splash with a 39-yard TD strike from Drake Maye, one of three passing touchdowns by the second-year QB in the third quarter. Boutte has gotten into the end zone in three straight games, posting a 10-223-4 line on 12 targets during that surge, and he'll look to keep rolling in Week 9 against the Falcons.

Pineiro made his lone extra-point try during the 49ers' 26-15 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Pineiro was idle for most of Sunday's game, with his only kick attempt coming in the second quarter after a 17-yard touchdown pass from Mac Jones to George Kittle. Week 8 marked the first time this season that Pineiro did not attempt a field goal. He is 17-for-17 on field-goal attempts and 10-for-11 on extra-point tries through seven regular-season games.

Tagovailoa completed 20 of 26 passes for 205 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in the Dolphins' 34-10 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Tagovailoa came into the afternoon dealing with an illness that forced him onto the injury report early Sunday morning, but he and the Dolphins conquered heavy odds to deliver a completely unexpected comfortable victory. Tagovailoa tossed a season-high four touchdown passes, hitting running backs De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon from three and 20 yards out, respectively, and sandwiching those throws around nine- and 43-yard scoring strikes to Malik Washington and Jaylen Waddle. This was a much-needed respite from both individual and team struggles for Tagovailoa and his teammates, but he'll have to turn around and face another talented defense in that of the Ravens during a Week 9 home matchup Thursday night.

Szmyt missed his lone field-goal attempt and made his only extra-point try during the Browns' 32-13 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Szmyt was unable to connect on a 47-yard field goal early in the second quarter, which would have extended the Browns' lead to 10-3. It was his third missed field goal of the season, and he is now 10-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 12-for-13 on point-after tries through the first eight games of the regular season.

Fitzgerald went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and missed his lone extra-point try during the Panthers' 40-9 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Fitzgerald put the Panthers on the board with a 48-yard field goal midway through the second quarter. His last-second field-goal try from 32-yards at the end of the first half sailed wide left, and he followed that up by missing a point-after try in the fourth quarter. Week 8 was the second time this season that Fitzgerald missed a field goal and an extra point in the same game. Through eight regular-season games, Fitzgerald has gone 13-for-15 on field-goal tries and 13-for-15 on extra-point attempts.

Baker is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

Baker appeared to take a hit to the head in the third quarter, and he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Samuel Womack could see some rotational snaps at corner if Baker is unable to return.

Diggs caught three of five targets for 14 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Browns.

Drake Maye didn't need to air it out too much, but the second-year quarterback still tossed three TDs in the third quarter to ice the game, with Diggs catching a one-yard score as part of the barrage. It was the veteran wideout's first touchdown of the season, a welcome sight for fantasy investors even if it came along with a season-low yardage total. Diggs will take a 42-470-1 line on 49 targets through eight games into a Week 9 clash with the Falcons.
