Moore caught one of two targets for minus-two yards while also adding 52 kickoff-return yards and 19 yards as a punt returner during Sunday's 17-14 win over the Buccaneers.

Moore was unable to build off his seven targets from Week 3, garnering his fewest targets since Week 1 in the team's marginal victory versus Tampa Bay. The 26-year-old doesn't carry much upside as a fantasy asset, and he figures to operate as a distant No. 3 option at wide receiver behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden moving forward.

Johnson logged eight carries for 42 yards and lost one fumble in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Johnson had a strong 5.3 yards per carry in the win but coughed up the football in a close game. The running back relinquished the ball to Tykee Smith with 9:13 remaining in the fourth quarter on the Tampa Bay 4-yard line while the Packers were up by only three points. The defense held off the Buccaneers' offense, but it appears the Packers chose to ride MarShawn Lloyd to finish out the game.

Davenport has opted to retire from the NFL following his release from the Bears' practice squad Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Davenport was granted his release by the Bears on Monday, and now the reasoning for his request is clear. The UTSA product was a first-round selection of the Saints in the 2018 NFL Draft and played the first five years of his NFL career in New Orleans before spending time in Minnesota and Detroit before joining Chicago in training camp for the 2026 season. He played a total of 78 regular-season games (43 starts) in the NFL and will finish his career with 166 tackles (88 solo), including 25.0 sacks, four pass defenses, seven forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Higbee caught five of six targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Eagles.

Higbee was the Rams' TE1 for a second consecutive week due to the absence of Colby Parkinson (shoulder/knee). Even with superstar wide receiver Puka Nacua back from a two-game absence, Higbee still finished Sunday's game tied for the second-most receiving yards on the Rams, and his six targets were fourth-most behind Kyren Williams (13), Nacua (12) and Davante Adams (nine). After a quiet start to the season, Higbee has a 13-129-1 receiving line on 17 targets over his last two games. Higbee may have shown enough to warrant an established role in the Rams' offense moving forward, even if Parkinson is cleared to return for Week 5 against the Bills.

Wicks caught three of five targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams.

Wicks was slated to operate as the team's No. 1 wide receiver in Week 4 with DeVonta Smith (hamstring) sidelined. He finished third on the team in targets behind fellow wideouts Darius Cooper (7) and Makai Lemon (6), while his 18 receiving yards were a season low. Wicks will have an easier matchup in Week 5 against the Jaguars, regardless of whether Smith is available or not.

Reynolds reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Reynolds took two carries for four yards during Washington's 30-12 loss against the Colts in Week 4. Whether he's brought up again in Week 5 may depend on the availability of Rachaad White (shoulder).

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

Deguara was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams, and he did not log a snap on offense in the contest. The 29-year-old was on the field for 21 snaps with the special-teams unit, failing to record any stats during the game. Deguara can be elevated two more times before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

Stick reverted to Tampa Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Stick was active as Jalon Daniels' backup but didn't see the field. He'll likely be back up with the Bucs each of the next couple weeks while Bake Mayfield continues to nurse a thumb injury.

Shepard reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Shepard was on the field for 17 of the Jets' 32 offensive snaps as the team finished with a time possession of 17:15, and he failed to haul in his lone target from Geno Smith. It was the second time this season that the veteran wide receiver was promoted from the practice squad, and he's eligible for one more elevation before the Jets would be required to sign him to the active roster. Shepard could be brought up for Week 5 against the Browns on Oct. 11 if Adonai Mitchell (finger) is not cleared to play.

Ertz reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

With Dallas Goedert (knee) stil sidelined, Johnny Mundt made the start at tight end for Philly and played 49 of 61 offensive snaps. Ertz saw 13 snaps on offense, running 11 routes on Jalen Hurts' 32 dropbacks. He caught two of four targets for 12 yards and has three catches for 21 yards on six targets across two appearances since signing with the practice squad.
