Allen caught five of nine targets for 45 yards in Sunday's Week 5 loss to Pittsburgh.

Allen missed Week 4 due to a groin injury but was able to return to action Sunday. His nine targets tied for the top mark on the Colts, and his five receptions were second behind tight end Tyler Warren. Allen has been relatively consistent this season with at least five catches in three of his four contests, but he's averaging a meager 8.1 yards per reception, which is on pace for a career low.

Washington reverted to the practice squad with the Dolphins on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Washington was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Bengals. The running back failed to record any stats in the contest while playing nine snaps on offense and three with the special-teams unit. Ollie Gordon (43) led the way in the backfield in offensive snaps, and if Washington is elevated again at any point this season, he'll likely operate in a similar depth role.

Brown (back) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday night's game versus the Rams.

Brown sustained a back injury early in the contest, and his night has now officially come to a premature end. Tylan Grable will continue to operate as the team's starting right tackle in Brown's place.

Thompkins reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Thompkins was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 45-17 loss to the Patriots, ultimately reeling in his only target for eight yards while playing 13 of the team's 60 offensive snaps. The wide receiver also added three kick returns for 80 yards and an 18-yard punt return in the defeat. If Jalen Nailor (concussion) remains unavailable in Week 6 versus the Bills, there's a good chance that Thompkins is elevated again.

Hemby reverted to the practice squad with the Raiders on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Hemby was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 45-17 loss to the Patriots, but he was ultimately inactive for the contest. With Ashton Jeanty back to full health following an ankle injury, Hemby will likely have to wait for his next chance to be elevated down the road this season.

Westbrook-Ikhine reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Westbrook-Ikhine was elevated to the active roster for the third time this season ahead of Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Steelers. The wide receiver played seven snaps on offense, which was tied for fourth at his position with Deion Burks behind Josh Downs (60), Laquon Treadwell (57) and Keenan Allen (32). Westbrook-Ikhine failed to reel in his only target in the contest, and he will now have to be officially signed to the active roster in order to appear in another contest with Indianapolis this season.

Scott reverted to the Bears' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Scott was elevated to the active roster to operate as an additional depth option behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson in Sunday's 31-7 loss to the Packers. Scott didn't log a snap on offense, and he recorded one tackle while playing nine snaps with the special-teams unit. The running back could garner another elevation in Week 6 against the Falcons if Kyle Monangai (toe) remains unavailable.

Holani rushed four times for seven yards and lost a fumble while reeling in all four of his targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 32-29 loss to the 49ers.

Holani was unable to get much going on the ground in Week 5, and he put the ball on the ground twice in the contest, the latter of which resulted in a defensive touchdown for San Francisco with 18 seconds left in the first half. The running back entered the game having dealt with both a knee injury and an injured rib at practice throughout the week, but he was ultimately good to go, and he was estimated to be a full participant on the Seahawks' injury report Monday. With Zach Charbonnet (knee) not expected back in Week 6, Holani will once again operate as a top backup option behind Emanuel Wilson in the backfield against the Broncos on Thursday Night Football.

Kolar reeled in three of four targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 23-17 loss versus the Broncos. He also lost a fumble.

Kolar was fighting for extra yardage after making a 19-yard grab for a first down in the first quarter when safety Talanoa Hufanga (ankle) jarred the ball loose, creating a turnover to set up a Denver touchdown. He managed two more catches for 18 yards the rest of the way, which was enough to make him the Chargers' most productive pass catcher in a game where quarterback Justin Herbert only threw for 121 yards. He projects to start as a blocking-first tight end again in a Week 6 tilt against the Chiefs.

Jeudy hauled in three of seven targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 17-12 loss against the Jets.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson struggled mightily against a tough Jets defense in Week 5, completing just 15 of his 33 pass attempts for 155 yards and getting sacked eight times. Jeudy's production still managed to lag behind even that baseline, as he averaged fewer than three yards per target Sunday. He'll be hoping to at least keep up the target volume in a Week 6 matchup versus the Ravens.
